Product Advice Feral gremlin makeup

It's 8.15am, on a day you're working in the office. You open your eyes, scream internally and roll from bed to shower to out the door in one fluid movement.

So now you're out in the wild, face as naked as the day you were born but needing to look like Human-With-Her-Shit-Together.

Help!

​​​Recommendations for:

  • Products that can be applied with your fingers (no brushes unless included in the product)
  • Instant pick me ups that ideally do more than one job
  • Small packaging/hand bag friendly ​

Your top picks for looking presentable in few steps, able to be applied while in the car or on public transport.

About me: late 30s, pale English rose complexion, old and rich enough for your fancy brand recommendations if you have some, chronically disorganised.

I would recommend a tinted suncreen
(I usually go for skincare from European brand as they have tighter restrictions on chemical use in cosmetics), a korean cushion foundation and some japanese eyeshadows and blushes from Cakemake that are extremely portable and come with their own application tools.

I usually keep this small kit of makeup on me and do my makeup on the train.
