For those in a rush and with no time on their hands, Wamika suggested, "Just do your CTM (cleansing, toning, moisturising), use a concealer and set it with powder. No foundation is required. Top it with a blush, highlighter, lipper, a little shimmery eyeshadow and you are good to go. Set it with a spray or a mist. It will only take five to seven minutes to achieve this look."(Unsplash) expand-icon View Photos in a new improved layout
