So, I've been challenging myself to do a full-ish face in about six minutes. Have not succeeded yet 😭😅, so I'm looking to BIC for some tips to get past the finish line.
I want to know six products, any category, you use to get that quick glam. Bonus if it includes skincare. Double bonus if you've timed yourself and it's less than 7 minutes (if you include skincare, 10-15 min).
****WEEK OF MARCH 24-30TH***
Collab'ing with Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge & Re: Makeup Challenge of the Week 2021/2022/2023
Cross ❌ post across 1-3 threads all your fast fierceness!
(I really don't, though Don)
Today I had-
GXVE BY GWEN STEFANI Hella On Point Clean Ultra-Fine Brow Pencil
Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Positive Light Liquid Luminizer Highlight Captivate, Lancôme SKIN FEELS GOOD Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 23 in Radiant Tan, Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion – Caffeine Caffeine , PAT McGRATH LABS PERMA PRECISION Liquid Eyeliner Xtreme Black , Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer Hot Chocolit .
Technically there's 7 products here @danielledanielle, so this is more of a Sephora Six (plus 1) - Fast & Furious Edition, from a "green" makeup capsule earlier this week.
😎 Primer - Fenty Skin Hydra Vizor Mineral SPF 30 Refillable Moisturizer which was part of this year's Sephora Favorites Sun Safety Kit - the soft, peach tint to this SPF moisturizer adds a nice brightness to my skin
💐 Base - A layer of the Sweed Glass Skin Foundation, followed by a layer of the Sweed mixed with the Isle of Paradise Sunny Serum Instant Face Bronzer 1.01 oz / 30 mL for warmth and extra radiance
🌴 Concealer - HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Triclone Skin Tech Hydrating + De-puffing Concealer with Fermented Arnica 11 ... has been wonderful for helping to reduce the appearance of some PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) dark spots
👁 Eyes - I've repurposed the MERIT Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer Clay as an eyeshadow. This day I wore it as an all over shadow with the darker shade from the Victoria Beckham Beauty Bronzing Brick (No. 2) in the crease and the lighter shade from the duo to set my eyeshadow and entire face.
💋 Lips - MERIT Shade Slick Gelée Sheer Tinted Lip Oil Mapleton adds just the slightest red-brown tint with a sheen to my lips.
🏵 Setting Powder - lighter shade from the Victoria Beckham Beauty Bronzing Brick (No. 2)
I forgot to time how long this took and I'd guess it was a smidge longer than 5 minutes - it took some time to conceal the pesky dark spots. The Sweed foundation did a good job, but there was still some time spent with the Haus concealer going over those spots.
@itsfi 6 and 7 both round the same, so I call it a win!
@JoSometimes, ha! I like that! 😀 I'll take the win, lol! Thank you.
Hey, I'd give you thumbs up on this @itsfi . IMO Fenty Skin Hydra Vizor Mineral SPF 30 Refillable Moisturizer 1.7 oz / 50 mL is a part of your skincare routine, so I don't look at it as part of the six, since spf & moisture are necessary, and I'm also psyched to see you incorporate it.
I am also in love with the packaging of Isle of Paradise Sunny Serum Instant Face Bronzer 1.01 oz / 30 mL , this pic is perfect, ad-perfect!
Thank you @danielledanielle. That is a higher compliment than I or that photo deserve, but I am extremely flattered (and my ego is sufficiently stroked but I won't let it get to my head, promise 😂)
I'm glad I asked you about the Fenty Skin Hydra Vizor Mineral SPF 30 Refillable Moisturizer - of course, I like the physical sunscreen filter. I also like the peach hue - it gives my face some overall brightness, which works beautifully for makeup prep. I prefer to have a separate SPF, but I llove having a moisturizer + SPF in one for those days when doubling up on a step is really helpful or needed. I want to test this out a little more on the weekends when I'm out and about but I have a feeling this will replace my current moisturizer + SPF in one product.
The packaging on this Isle of Paradise Sunny Serum Instant Face Bronzer 1.01 oz / 30 mL has its pros and cons, most pros. The one con is that it is a little bulky so it may not be the most travel friendly item. That being said, I'd just decant some of it into a small jar
I've only mixed this with other products, like moisturizer, sunblock, face oil, etc. and I want to see how it wears on its own. With the latter, especially when I mix in a small pump into my foundation, it has a grey cast to it, which makes me pause when I see it blended out on my hand but when I apply it onto my skin, the grey-ness is less off-putting and can be easily adressed with powder and other products. There doesn't seem to be any grey tones to it when it's blended out here though. 🤔 Testing continues...
Ah, thanks for the full deets on Isle of Paradise Sunny Serum Instant Face Bronzer 1.01 oz / 30 mL , I can say I'll live vicariously through you at this point... Always so thorough @itsfi
7 is practically 6. @itsfi 😉
It's not easy to use to less products, I think you did great!
lol, @CynthieLu, thank you! I don't typically use that many products, even during the workweek - at my most minimal, it'll be 3 - 5 products, and at most... mostest? 🤣, or at my most maximalist, 12-15. As I'm going through my stash though with the Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge, I'm using more products more often and while it's shining a bright light on how much products I actually have in my stash, it's also really making clear (though sometimes it takes awhile for that clarity to come through) what are the workhorses in my stash.
A look using my usual kit and it took me 10 minutes. Now that I have a baseline, I’m gonna try to streamline it and see what I can do with just 6.
@CynthieLu @danielledanielle @peculiarzmakeup Thank you all! I can’t believe I didn’t respond all those weeks ago! Must have been during the infamous login issues. So sorry! 😢
Wow, that's so speedy! @JoSometimes And it turned out amazing!
Stunning look! Can’t wait to see what you do in 6! 10 minutes is a very solid time! @JoSometimes 🫶
RECAP - Sephora Six - Fast & Furious Edition
Amazing @itsfi ! Wonderful tips! I totally agree with all of them but especially Play Favorites because you never know with new products and I’ve definitely had issues with foundation/primers/spf pilling or blush going on too pigmented, and those corrections take time and add frustration! Thanks for the detailed recommendations!
Haha that's exactly what I say to my husband - "I'm going upstairs to play with my makeup!" @danielledanielle
This is all really good advice and pointers @itsfi.
Practice and Prep, those are soo important to any kind of success. I'm really impressed with everyone's fast faces and attempts to do this challenge. 😀

Time
Finished look
This experience was super fun, I look forward to trying it again.
a couple bumps in the road
-not having something to dry my face with had to look for a towel
-not remembering to wet my beauty blender to apply the makeup
-felt frazzled haha
Tips
-take your time but use it wisely
-prepare all necesscary tools not just products (I didn’t even realize that I wasn’t prepared I thought I had everything)
-meaningful minutes, how can I make each minute meaningful to the whole outcome of fast and furious
Seeing yours inspire me! Until next time 🫶❤️
