I was recently asked to make a new "five minute makeup" video now that I have grey hair, so here it is!
Now the video is more than 5 minutes long (cos I was chit-chatting with you) but I wanted to let you know that I did actually time how long it takes me to apply my makeup, on my average morning and I discovered that it takes me only 4 minutes. That's because I do the same thing all the time so I'm not having to think about it and because I've practiced it every day now for years!
