We’re not here to shame you if you’re lazy. But if you are, you want a beauty routine — and beauty products — that will get you out the door in five minutes or less. We’re talking multipurpose sticks you can use on your lids, cheeks and lips; a face cleanser that exfoliates, combats acne and nourishes your skin; and an eyeliner pen that lets you stamp on the perfect wing without much effort. Spend less time sitting in the mirror getting ready and more time enjoying life with these beauty products that are perfect for lazy people.
The Multiple by NARS
Love that bronzy, summery look but want to keep things simple and efficient? Then invest in this versatile multi-purpose stick that can be used on your lids, cheeks, nose, body, and lips. Dab it on your lips, and you’ll get a shimmery lip stain. Blend it on your cheeks for a sun-kissed flush or swipe NARS’ The Multiple on your eyelids and the tip of the nose for an effortless full-face look. The whole process will take about 1 or 2 minutes, but it’ll look like you’ve been sitting in front of the mirror for hours.
Good (Skin) Days by Soko Glam
Skincare routines have increasingly become way too complicated. Between sheet masks, acids, toners, serums, face wash, 10-step Korean beauty routines, and retinoids, it’s really easy to get carried away with skincare. Simplify your like by choosing a facial cleanser that gets rid of impurities, dirt, and bacteria, and hydrates your skin all at once. We like Good (Skin) Days Cream Cleanser by Soko Glam. The formula features a cocktail of broccoli, fermented green tea, and celery.
This blend of leafy green ingredients helps moisturize, refresh, reduce redness, and soothe irritated skin. Oh, and thanks to the addition of real crushed mugwort leaves, you’re also getting a mild exfoliation that’s great for those with dry, sensitive skin.
100% Squalane Oil by Biossance
Just because your beauty routine is low-effort, does not mean it can’t be high-impact. Give your dull and dehydrated skin a pick-me-up with squalene oil, a moisturizing ingredient that’s sort of like a tall glass of water for thirsty skin and hair. You can use Biossance 100% Squalane Oil on your face, hair, lips, dry knees, cuticles, elbows, or anywhere you could use a bit of hydration. You can even use it as a shaving oil to keep your legs flake-free.
Squalene (which is derived from natural olives) is pretty similar in composition to the oils your body naturally produces, so your skin will immediately recognize this substance. Best of all? Squalene oil works on all skin types. This includes people with dry, dehydrated, sensitive, oily, or acne-prone skin.
While other oils tend to feel heavy and clog your pores, squalane is non-comedogenic, which means it won’t clog your pores. Squalane can also be used to treat eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, rosacea, and inflammatory acne thanks to its anti-inflammatory and skin-balancing properties.
Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask by Glow Recipe
For those days when you can’t be bothered to even put on moisturizer, try an overnight mask like the Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask by Glow Recipe. This overnight mask promises to perfect your skin while you sleep, boosting its overall radiance, smoothing out fine lines, fighting off dark spots, and reducing the size of your pores.
The amino-rich watermelon and hyaluronic acid in the formula will intensely hydrate, soothe, and fight off wrinkles and sunspots, while the Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) will gently exfoliate your skin overnight. AHAs are also known for removing dead skill cells, smoothing fine lines, and softening dark spots.
Now, if you’re trying to get rid of years of sun damage and deep wrinkles, then you may need to swap AHAs for an in-office laser resurfacing treatment like IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) or the Fraxel Laser, (which happens to be Kim Kardashian’s go-to skin treatment).
Waterproof Eyeliner Stamp by LA PURE
This helpful tool was designed for anyone who loves winged eyeliner but wasn’t blessed with steady surgeon hands. The LA PURE eyeliner stamp pen is 100% waterproof, so it won’t wipe off even after breaking a sweat at the gym.
The eyeliner stamp pen comes with two pens, one for the left eye and one for the right eye. All you have to do is hold the stamp where you want to place your wings, press the pen gently, and voila! You get a perfect flic, every time.
Hollywood Flawless Filter by Charlotte Tilbury
Looking for a beauty product that blurs out pores, illuminates, and makes your skin look like an Instagram filter in real life? Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter checks all those boxes.
This glow booster comes in 12 shades that blend effortlessly with most skin tones. If you’re working with tan, brown, or darker deep skin tones, go for the shades, 6.5 Deep, 7 Deep, and 8 Deep.
The lightweight formula has a natural, sheer finish –so there’s no chance to look overdone – no matter how you choose to apply it. Use it as a highlighter, primer, blend it with your foundation, or just use it alone as an all-over illuminator. No blender, sponge, or brush needed.
Create an everyday sun-kissed look in just seconds by dabbing the product with your fingers all over your eyelids, cheekbones, clavicles, the bridge of your nose, and cupid’s bow —the messier the better!
The finely milled powders and smoothing airbrush polymers in the formula promise to smooth and blur pores, fine lines, and early signs of aging.
