"...But after only a week, I got it down to 6 minutes, or less, to apply the entire line. And I no longer need the chart. I've also played with the make-up a little bit. Learned how to paint heavier, or more, for a dressy night out, versus lightly applying a minimum for a playdate at the park. And I'm not kidding when I tell you it takes less than 6 minutes to apply." (Read More...)

"...If you're not so sure about creating your own bag of tricks, Rubin-Roberts has done the work for you: Her Clean-n-Casual Kit ($87, mommymakeup.com) includes five products you can apply quickly with the help of a paint-by-number map of the face. For a crisper look, tack on her Brow Tint ($15)."

"...Then, toss in a great lip product. Mommy's Kisses ($23, mommymakeup.com), shown here in Emily, includes a coordinating lip pencil in the cap for a truly polished look with no fuss."

"With fellow Glamour bloggers Erin and Christine becoming moms, I thought I’d mention Mommy Makeup, a new line from New York makeup artist and mom Debra Rubin Roberts. Debra, my sister’s mommy friend, just e-mailed me that she’d recently won the “Best New Product” award at a trade show in New York City. Her winning entry was her Pretty-n-Polished kit, a group of six multitasking products for your entire face. Debra says she had her lightbulb moment immediately after giving birth, when she realized that, even as a makeup pro who’d worked for Nars, Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier, she couldn’t pull herself together in the limited time her new baby gave her. The $120 kit would make an awesome, though pricy, baby gift. —Andrea"

"...these clever all-in-one kits feature everything you need for a very natural look. They include pressed powder, eye shadow, blush, mascara and lip gloss, along with paint-by-number application guide for the absoulute novice. The kits are packaged in a tote that is ready to throw in your purse anytime. Our testers found the products created a glowing natural look because it does not go on too heavy, and the texture is nice."

"The lip color "Madison" which came with the kit but is also sold separately as part of the Mommy's Kisses line is such a perfect shade for me that I actually told the creator to rename the product after me and call it "Lizzie" These unique lip glosses have a special secret lip liner that screws into the top and even if it's all that you can do in the morning to quickly add some color to your face you will feel pretty all day I promise.

Everyone knows that life with a newborn is a whirlwind of feedings and diaper changes. You barely have time to bathe, much less get gussied up for a day at the park or a night out with your hubby. Debra Rubin-Roberts, creator of Mommy Makeup, found herself in the same predicament after she gave birth to her daughter, Daisy. Debra, a professional makeup artist, decided to glam herself up a bit while then-baby Daisy was taking a long nap. After using 13 products to achieve a natural, clean look, she realized that she had to simplify and streamline her makeup process. And Mommy Makeup was born. (Read More...)
