I think I've become much faster at make up because I've been doing it for 15+ years.
I have my work makeup application, my "going out" make up, my "hanging out in the apartment and I may have to run to the store" makeup. I'm rarely without something. Even camping I have a tinted moisturizer and tinted lip balm. I do like it to look natural. Although there is rarely a time you will see me without my red "Dietrich" lipstick.
As for the undereye situation, I am in love with Benefits "Eye Con" it's a cream for under your eyes that you put on in the morning and at night. It really does a lovely job at getting rid of the dark circles and depuffing. I also like the "Boi ing", which is the conceler for under the eyes, not cakey at all. :smiling:
