Fast Makeup After A Sleepless Night

As a mummy of two young children, I don't really get the greatest amount of sleep. I'm far more familiar with 5am than I'd like to be. However, last night was a particularly rough one due to my daughter having been poorly this week. She woke up at 2.30am and decided that mummy should be awake, too. As you can imagine, I wasn't feeling or looking too sparkly this morning.
I woke up like dis.
I really wanted quick makeup to make me feel and look brighter and more awake, and here's what I went for. It literally took me ten minutes. 
Products Used

Base
Benefit It's Potent Eye Cream
Clinique Moisture Surge CC Cream (Light-Medium)
Bobbi Brown Corrector (Light Bisque)
Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer (Fair Neutral)
Soleil Tan de Chanel
Brows
Seventeen Brow Sculpting Pencil

Eyes

I certainly felt a lot more like myself afterwards! I love one wash eye shadows for days when I have limited time, or when I just don't feel like spending time blending shadows. I also love this Clinique CC cream for a quick base that adds a fresh glow to my skin, especially useful when it's feeling dull. As an alternative to the bright lip, I also like a glossy lip to make my face look more awake.
