4 Beauty Looks Under 5 Minutes and $320 Giveaway #MarcelleMoms

As a mom to 5 I don’t always feel like I’m looking my best but when I head out to my daughters basketball games or the grocery store, I like to  feel like I’m put together without a lot of makeup. I prefer the more natural look and frankly I don’t have a lot of time to fuss with myself before running out the door. As a Marcelle #MarcelleMoms Brand Ambassador, Julie from Sober Julie and I have created 4 – 5 minute looks with just a few products each for moms with busy, no-fuss lives, like us.

Marcelle Ultra Gentle Cleansing Gel

Before applying makeup we take care of our skin by cleansing and moisturizing. Marcelle has recently launched the Ultra Gentle Cleansing Gel which which bears the official seal of recognition of the CDA’s Skin Health Program.

 

We have a lot of faces to wash in this family; I cannot tell you how much I appreciate Marcelle’s ultra-mild and non-foaming facial cleanser which is gentle enough to be used by the entire family.  This cleanser is enriched with aloe vera and glycerin which protects the skin’s natural barrier and can be used wet or dry, making it the perfect carry along for sports or family time at the pool. 1 product for a family of 7 (well 6, not counting Baby Ro) is a huge savings too!

4 Marcelle 5 Minute Looks

 

This Lil Piglet’s 5 Minute Looks from Marcelle

Mom5MinuteLook

MarcelleMomsLook

Face: Marcelle CC cream in light to medium(SRP $29.95); Cream Blush in Coral(SRP $15.95). Eyes: Xtension Plus + ProLash Growth Complex Mascara in Black(SRP $14.95). Lips: Marcelle Lux Gloss Cream in Belissima (SRP $10.95).

 

Marcelle CC cream: Natural sometimes means tired looking and I’m absolutely in love with Marcelle’s CC cream for that exact reason. My skin has lost some of it’s youthful radiance; add in those awful dark circles, a few discolorations from age and acne during the lovely hormones from pregnancies and I have more than enough reasons to rave about what I like to call liquid gold.  Made with a  pure 24K gold infusion , this Correction Cream diminishes the appearance of dark spots and skin imperfections, it’s lightweight but provides full coverage and leaves skin feeling and looking radiant, smoother, firmer and moisturized.

 

Xtension Plus + ProLash Growth Complex Mascara: Unfortunately, I am not blessed with long lashes like my daughter but with a couple of coats of the mascara, I was amazed at how much fuller they looked.

Cream Blush: I’ve mentioned before my preference of cream blushes over powder; I just find it to be a smoother blend of colour for a more natural glow in the cheeks. The coral colour is my favourite for my skin tone and it blends for a flawless application.

Lux Gloss Cream: There isn’t a day I leave the house without lip gloss, even on the days where makeup doesn’t make it out the door, my lips are covered. One thing I cannot stand is a sticky lip gloss; the Lux Gloss Crème has a pure creamy finish, non-sticky and hydrating formula with a wet shiny look to make them look fuller and plumper. Pucker up hunny!

 

I love that with a few Marcelle products, I can look and feel more radiant in 5 minutes. Makeup doesn’t have to be about long rituals; who has time for that?

From the time Miss Priss and Squeakers were small, they had an interest in my makeup; of course it was only play time then but they are at the age where makeup is starting to be important. Do I think they need makeup? Absolutely not but it makes them feel like they are growing up and I’m okay with that. Marcelle makes being a mom in that department easy with lighter colour choices to choose from so my girls natural beauty is enhanced rather than covered up. The girls are happy getting creative with their eye colours and mama’s happy the colours blend rather than cake.
