I just need five extra minutes….

Coaches wives are no different than any other time-pressed woman. But, I like to think we are even more pressed for time because not only are we raising a family on our own while the coach is off raising other people’s kids, we are never home. As I try to pack bags with everything I will need for a night on the field or in the gym, freshening up my face gets the last-ditch effort. And really, it should be the first thing which I should tend to. I found this cute little blog, Jolie in NYC and a video clip of the blog’s author on the Today Show, and it had some great tips. 1. Use great foundation 2. Swipe of bronzer ( if pressed for time use bronzer as eyeshadow, I have used blush before) 3. Blush 4. Curl the lashes (5 seconds on each lash) and 10 swipes of mascara on each side 5. Lip gloss. I also like to include Bobbi Brown's concealer as part of my five-minute routine and just put on the lipstick in the car or some faraway gym if I can move the cheerleaders out of the way. They are cute enough!
