elaineganMACLAINE 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2008 I'm not a make-up lover... I can just live on concealer and lipstick, so it takes me about 20 mins (plus shower, etc) to be ready. It helps me to sleep in later.. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Empress 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2008 Every morning I spend approximately 1.5 hours before leaving for work ie 30 mins in the toilet (as I will read newspaper during that time), 45 mins for shower and wash hair and 15 mins to dress up. Make up will be done in the office.

meiteoh 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2008 I can get it down to 15 minutes (bath, dress, lip gloss), if I'm in a rush. The usual is 30 minutes.I guess for me, it's quick because 1) I dun like wearing too much make-up to work and 2) I usually have my clothes ready the night before so I dun have to stand in front of the cupboard and wonder what to wear. My shower time is usually 5 mins, like Elaine. My parents used to say that I mandi like a kerbau but I always tell them that I don't see the point of bathing for 20 minutes if I'm not washing my hair - just soap, wash and that's it. To me, any longer is like wasting water. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pink Kitty 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2008 Wow... me ah, from the moment the alarm rings, hubby starts waking me up...and it continues for 20~30mins till I really got off from bed. For me, the 1st place to visit is toilet. I sit 5 mins on toilet bowl (dozing off at the same time), 5 mins brush teeth wash face wear contact lens. So here gone 10 mins.Then I sit in front of dressing table, apply toner, moisturizer, sunblock, concealer...here goes another 10 mins. Then I use the 'iron' to straighten my hair a bit, 5 mins.Then change clothes wear perfume & watch, another 5 mins I think. So total 30 mins gone, and I am almost ready.So in the car (on the way to LRT station where hubby drops me off), I will draw eyeliner, if got time put mascara and blusher and lipstick & lipgloss, if not, I'll do it while waiting for the train or in the train.

suga 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2009 Well looks like most people use 30mins max every morning. I am so envy LOL!!I have very weird habit of taking bath. I must take bath before sleep, then in the morning after wake up. My bath including wash hair, or at least rinse with shampoo. I tried to stop this habit, but feel not comfortable the whole day if I don't bath in the morning...lol!! Plus, I have long hair, it's real waste of time lol...

For me, I don't take bath in the morning, very cold...I take bath before I sleep You sound exactly like me! If I've to wake up at 7.30am, HB has to start waking me up at 7am because it's impossible to get me out of bed in the mornings no matter what time I sleep at night. Our makeup routines are the same too.I usually prepare breakfast the night before & put in the fridge so can just straight away bring it to work & eat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
