You know the struggle is real when you set your alarm for 8am, but keep snoozing till there’s only 15 minutes left to leave for work. Yup, we’ve all been there. And we’ve all had to look like zombies and what not because the only option you really have are: bathe and wear whatever you can find, or put on tons of deodorant and find the perfect #ootd. Either way, despite your on-point options, sometimes your outfit can end up looking a little, well, meh. And to the shopaholics out there, no, you don’t need to shop for new clothes. All you need is one trick that can take your look from zero to a hundred real quick.

And don’t get us wrong, wearing an easy outfit before rushing off to finish your errands or rushing for a meeting is amazing. But an easy outfit doesn’t mean it has to be boring. If you’re a complete makeup junkie, then look no further. The answer to your prayers is right in your vanity!
