These days, most of us are pretty busy — and when you're a parent, time to yourself is a precious commodity.
Whether you’re juggling a fast-paced office job and the demands of a toddler or finally starting to feel like a human again after the birth of your little bundle, carving out a little me-time can seem like an impossible feat.
Get some of that balance back with some ultra-quick primping and pampering. These five easy beauty tips will have you looking and feeling your best in no time.
Get Misty
Looking for a two-second trick for glowing skin? Invest in a hydrating mist that fits in your purse for quick spritzes on the go.
Bonus: Try a mist with an uplifting, refreshing citrus scent to give you a burst of energy each time you spray it.
Multi sticks have been a mainstay in any self-respecting beauty junkie's makeup repertoire for years, with very good reason.
You'll look as fresh as Lily-Rose Depp with the help of a peachy-pink stick that works as a lipstick, blusher and — if you’re as daring as Johnny’s daughter — eye shadow, too.

Brow Wow
Nothing makes you look more polished (and a little younger, tbh), than perfectly groomed brows. When there’s no time to shape and fill, grab a coloured brow gel to get every hair into place with one swipe.
Want to tap into the model-off-duty trend with perfectly tousled locks come morning?
Before bed, simply sprinkle dry shampoo onto your hands, work the powdery residue into your roots — don’t forget the hair near the nape of your neck and around your ears — and once you wake up, you’ll have flawless second-day hair with no greasies.
