My morning skincare routine:

... eat breakfast... blowdry hair... apply makeup... etc.

 
I do more skincare at night than morning, but here is my quick morning routine:

Wash face in shower with Dove or Cetaphil soap

Stridex Maximum Strength (2% salicylic acid)

Mattifier under makeup (Cornsilk or Clinac OC) - but I'm not sure if this really works, lol

On Saturdays I usually don't leave the apartment, so I skip the mattifier and treat my self to Queen Helene's Mint Julep mask ... after taking an extra-long shower and shaving my legs, it's my mini-spa day :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Just for kicks, at night I do:

Wash and exfoliate with Cetaphil soap and Buf Puf sponge

Stridex Maximum Strength

Neutrogenia On-The-Spot acne treatment (2.5% benzoyl peroxide)

Olay Regenerist eye serum

For reference, I have oily skin with some acne, and am just starting to see some fine lines under my eyes...

Here's mine-- 5:00 am: I get up and get into the shower...while I'm in there I wash my hair (I use Bumble and Bumble Thickening Shampoo, the matching conditioner, and then B&B's curling shampoo) after that I wash my body(Philosophy's Amazing Grace) and then I shave, exfoliate (Fresh's Brown Sugar Body Polish) and I wash my face (Boscia's Black Cleanser and Clinique's Turnaround Instant Facial) then I turn the water off, dry off and get out. 5:30 am: at this point I'm tired and the water just made me flustered, so I make a cup of coffee for myself and leave it in the bathroom for later. Then I get dressed (I leave my clothes out before so it literally only takes me 2 minutes) then rush back to my bathroom to finish. So now I'm dressed but my hair's super wet so I put on a robe (to keep my clothes dry) and start in on my hair. First I use both B&B's Thickening Mousse and their Holding Foam (for curls) and then I blow dry my hair. 5:50 am: After all this I turn on my curling iron (it takes a million years so I just do my makeup while I wait) I start with a moisturizer (Clinique's Magically Different Moisturizing Gel) and then I use a primer (Hourglass's Mineral Primer), foundation (Hourglass's Immaculate Liquid Powder Foundation), Concealer (Perricone MD's No Concealer Concealer) and then powder (Hourglass's Ambient Lighting Powder) a Bronzer (Benefit's Hoola) a Highlighter (Sephora's Baked Luminizer) and, finally, a blush (usually either Nars's Orgasm or Deep Throat lovely names, right?) So after all that face stuff I then start in on my eyes.I prime with Urban Decay's Primer Potion, and then I use whatever eyeshadow, generally something from the Naked pallet. Afterwords I line my eyes with Stila's Liquid Eyeliner, and then on my waterline I use Urban Decay's Eye Pencil in Yeyo (it's white). So after that I curl my lashes, use an eyelash primer from Dior, and I use some Mascara (it's generally just whichever I pick up first) and I use my eyebrow pencil from Anastasia and some lip gloss and I'm finally done with makeup. 6:20 am: my curling iron's been heated up for a while so I put in some dry shampoo from B&B and then a heat protector from Dry Bar and I finally curl my hair. This takes about twenty minutes so that's that, and after all that work I set it with just a tiny bit of B&B's Classic Hairspray. 6:50 am: Ok, I'm finally done with everything...so I make a smoothie really quick (my mom just got a nutribullet and it's pretty amazing) I pack a really quick lunch or bring money for a salad from the cafe across the street from my school, grab my bag and wait for my friend to pick me up at 7:00 P.S. my friends and I generally go to starbucks right before school starts at 8:30 to grab something so there's that...I drink a lot in the mornings... 

 
Well, for me, its like this.... Get up at 7:00am, Make my bed, Get dressed, Make my breakfast, Brush my teeth, Brush my hair, Have a wash, Take my sis to school with mum, come home do dishes, Then I study. That's my complicated makeup routine in the morning. Funny, I don't wear makeup. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
On days that I have classes::

- Wake up (at 6am ish)

- Brush my teeth and wash/exfoliate my face

- Put on toner, essence, & moisturizer.

- Make up

- Do my hair (99% of the time, I just comb it and let it go)

- Put on clothes

- Grab backpack/purse and laptop

- Leave the house and go to Starbucks or some coffee place (at 7am)

*sometimes I shower in the morning too, so that would mean I would have to wake up at 5am.

On days that I DONT have classes::

- Wake up

- Look at the time

- Go back to sleep.

 
Well my morning routine is simple. I get up early in the morning and like to do exercise first. After doing exercise i take my breakfast and take shower. This is my daily morning routine.

 
Well I usually get around 6:00am.

First, I brush my teeth and go for a morning walk.

Then I do exercise for half an hour and take a bath.

Time to do my breakfast. I prefer to take a glass of orange juice with breakfast. It brings a glow on my face.
