Beauty routines can take FOREVER to get the perfect complexion achieved. Moisturizing, cleansing, exfoliating, people make it seem that you must do every step to get beautiful skin.

But if you are like some of us who do not have that time in the morning (or are too lazy to do so) there are still ways for you to get that glowing skin you want without having to change your preferences! There are four easy steps to take, and you will have gorgeous skin and with minimal effort.

Sleep

Getting between seven to nine hours of sleep every night gives great benefits to your skin. While you sleep, your body produces collagen which helps prevent wrinkles. When you wake up in the morning, you won’t have those dark under eye circles that give you that “you look tired” comment from everyone when you walk in the office! Getting your “beauty sleep” couldn’t be farther from the truth!

Makeup

NEVER wear your makeup to bed, NEVER. When you do this, the makeup just sits on your face and soaks up into your pores causing them to clog up and create unwanted blemishes. I know at the end of a long day all you want to do curl into bed with your pj’s on and fall fast asleep, but you can’t do that.

A way to solve this issue, leave your makeup remover on your nightstand. This way if you end up getting into bed and realize you haven’t taken your makeup off, there is no need to sigh and cringe at the fact of having to get out of bed!

All-in-One Cleansers

These wonderful inventions give us the entire beauty routine in one easy cream or foam! Look for a cleanser that exfoliates, moisturizes, and cleanses the face. These will become your new best friend in the morning and night!

Wear Sunscreen

Carrying around a travel sized bottle of sunscreen in your purse can be very beneficial to your skin on an exceptionally hot day. If you feel your face start to burn, slather on a thin layer of sun protection. This will save you from having to add an extra step to your skincare routine later on down the line!
