Being a mother is a hands-on job. Whether you are a stay-at-home mom or a working woman, giving yourself time can be a challenge. So, if you're a busy and tired mom who wants to look good but have no time, then here is a list of a few time-saving beauty tips and tricks that can give your skin and hair some

Use coconut oil in bed

If your skin and hair are too dry, then you can indulge in a night-time routine. Apply coconut oil to your skin and hair overnight. Next morning, you will wake up to soft skin and hair.

Try waxing at home

The best way to get rid of body hair is to use a razor. Use a moisturiser or a hair conditioner on your body and use a razor for a quick shave. If you want to avoid razors, you can try epilators or at-home wax trips. The best way to maintain a hair-free body is to use wax trips and epilators at the time the growth starts coming. This way, you don't have to spend hours removing the full-growth.

Ditch your nail polish

Going nail polish-free on fingers and toes are helpful. As chipped nail polish is worse than no polish. If you have no time to maintain your polish, it's best to skip the polish. Whenever you get time, make sure you file the nails and hydrate your cuticles.

Buy multifunctional products

A lot of moisturizers come with sunscreen these days, plus there are the tinted moisturizers that can double up as foundation. To look flawless in no time, apply an all in one product like a CC cream. It will moisturize, colour correct and make your face look healthier.

Use a long wearing lipstick

Nobody likes coming home after a long day and finding that bull's eye lip look, because you had no time to reapply. Use a long-wearing lipstick so your color doesn't fade.

A stroke of eyeliner

For most of us, eyeliner is what makes us feel confident and pulled together. Don’t let your your busy schedule change that. Simply grab dark bold waterproof eyeliner and a white pencil for your waterline which is easy-to-apply. Eyeliner and white pencil will not only polish your look but also, hide any trace of lack of sleep.

Consider a no-maintenance haircut

Taking care of your hair can take time. Go for a haircut, which is low maintenance. This way you don't have to spend much time washing, drying and styling your hair.

Use a sheet mask

Invest in sheet masks. Whenever you're taking a nap, apply a sheet mask on your face and just relax. This way you can boost your skin hydration and keep it firm too! And it is also an amazing way to relax and pamper yourself in an unexpected place at an unexpected time.
