There are a handful of products out there that will save you time next time you’re in a hurry.

These makeup products are for those days when you oversleep or have an important meeting in five minutes on a day you decided to skip your makeup. While this is just a handful of products, you’d be surprised at much you can improve your look just by using one or two in a pinch.

If you look around, most can be found for less than . Here are some time-saving makeup products you’ll want to keep around!

Lip gloss – How can lip gloss save you time, you ask? Easy. Since it makes lips appear fuller, it’s a great substitute for lip pencil and lipstick. You just stash it in your purse and put it on whenever you want to draw attention to your lips.

Not only that, but its sticky consistency is also great at taming unruly eyebrows. Simply smooth it on brows when you haven’t got time to pluck. How many other uses can you think of for this versatile makeup product?

Tinted Moisturizer – On those days when you hop out of bed with just minutes to spare before you’ll be really, truly late, tinted moisturizer will be your best friend. This makeup product not only moisturizes but also adds just a hint of color and luminescence to your complexion.

It definitely beats trying to apply a full face of foundation and powder when you’re in a hurry. Mix it with a bit of concealer for truly troublesome spots. As an added bonus, it’s a fantastic substitute for face makeup in hot weather!

Dry shampoo – these spray-on formulas are great for days when you don’t have time to wash your hair. Most contain a spray-in, brush-out powder that clings to hair strands and helps give them added volume and eliminates odors.

You can simply spray the dry shampoo on, leave it in while you go about the rest of your makeup routine, brush it out and style as you normally would. While it’s not your typical makeup product, per se, we think it’s one time-saving essential that belongs right beside your foundation and blush!

The truth is, you can make any product save you time once you know how to use it.
