If you asked for a pre-date routine my answer would be very different, but I'm presuming you mean morning before work.
Makeup: None Skin: Quick scrub/exfoliate in the shower, then moisturizer after, varies but usually Olay Hair: Either wash (usually just conditioner or shampoo only at the roots), scrunch some product in it, then let the curls do their thing, with sometimes a minute or two of drying at the roots for increased volume, or if I don't wash it that day (can't wash it every day, dries out too much) I either mist it to revive the curls/waves, or use the curl brush to smooth it out. Products also vary - I'm still in search of a perfect hair product for my difficult hair, which is wavy/curly (which clearly I love to accentuate) but very fine and relatively thin, so I've not been able to find one that gives the perfect balance between creating volume or accentuating the curls without weighing it down too much. So honestly, not including the shower, I put no more than 5 minutes into it.

I'll race Dance with me.
Um... I shower, every morning. Use Doc Bronners soap, usually peppermint, sometimes almond. I too have the curly hair that thou shall not shampoo to excess. So sometimes I shampoo. Depends on what I've been up to. Usually it's a nice good rinse and get my fingers through it. All done. Towel down and sometimes put an anti-frizz thing in my hair if it's humid out. I don't think I've worn make up since I was 16? If I'm going to moisturize I use a vitamin E oil. Right now I have a nice one with some rose oil in it. It smells nice. I use that more in the cold months. Fast and easy. I spend MUCH more time in the morning enjoying a nice cup of black coffee and reading the morning news. That's the stuff that turns me into a nice person in the morning. |

I can be out of the house in 12 minutes ...
...from the time I wake.
I shower Only shampoo and conditioner (changes regularly, but almost always a salon brand), I do not use a body wash. I will use shampoo on my skin if I need something, but typically I am a water only person in the shower. Get out and always lotion my body. I use an Olay body lotion. I only use Mac cosmetics, but typically only eyeliner unless I am dressing up. Mousse my hair with (depends), right now Tresomme for curly hair. I only scrunch and go. Drives my hairdresser crazy as I won't still still for him to blow dry and fuss with it. Lotion my face with Covergirl, can't remember which one right now. Get dressed and I am out of the house. My brother told me about Mac cosmetics, he is a dancer and it is the only brand he will use. I have always been happy with them.

my hair is cut like Shane's from the L Word so its a simple wash and finger dry.
I wash my face in the shower, moisturize when I get out. Make up takes maybe 5 minutes. I take very little time to get ready in the AM or to go out. Now chrissy? I cant get him to brush his own hair without me telling him to do so. LOL. He is ready if he has clothes on. Absolutely no maintenance...except when he is in femme clothes...then its a long process and I get to sit and watch....

A.M.
Shower: Paris Amour shower gel and lotion, old-fashioned and cheap Johnson's Baby Shampoo. If I've been swimming, I'll use a leave-in conditioner from the hairdressers. Skin: I use Clinique cleanser with one of those little brushes in the shower, then toner, moisturizer, and age defier  . Moisturize all over with Paris Amour body lotion. A gel called Rewind for my hair, just tousle it up a bit and done! Of course, for a date I go all out with curling iron and spray, and a shiner. In fact, sometimes I do just that for any day! Time: about 30 minutes P.M. I'll often shower sometime in the evening, even if I have a lot of work to do. Sometimes, this is when I wash my hair to save time in the morning. Same Clinique routine except I add an eye and night cream.

I don't have a very complicated routine.
I swig some filtered water right away in the morning, then slowly sip my coffee, which I sit with for about 25 minutes, watching the news and slowly waking up. Next I shower, using some mild soap, but I'm not picky. I'm much more picky about hair products and alternate Aveda and Goldwell shampoos, then apply Aveda damage remedy conditioner. After towel-drying my hair, I use one of three Aveda leave-in products: daily hair repair; smooth infusion, and light elements smoothing fluid. Sometimes, to give just the ends of the layers a cohesive curl, I use Aveda light elements detailing mist wax. I never use products with alcohol in them. My hair is thick, but fine, and naturally wavy. It's easy to shape and I keep it cut in layers so it doesn't look too "big," and use products that sort of smooth it down. Oh, to back up a little, I wash my face every night with Clinique exfoliating scrub and use a good hydrating Estee Lauder moisturizer—I try different ones all the time and apply them with a little palette knife (very dull, of course), so I don't get oil from my fingers in the jar. And getting back to the morning routine—after it's had a few minutes to dry, I blow dry my hair and watch the clock: I keep it under seven minutes. I clip the hair at the top of my head, do the lower layers, then unclip the top knot and do those top layers. I roll it on the brush, apply the heat then let it cool on the brush for a few seconds; it's the cooling that holds the shape. For my face in the morning, I use a high SPF sunscreen, then an Estee Lauder moisturizer, then an Estee Lauder liquid foundation and sometimes a Mac shaker-top loose powder. I use Mac eye shadows, and just cheap Revlon mascara; brown-black, water resistant. I apply it all pretty swiftly; I never needed to use an eyelash curler and I don't use eye liner or anything I can't swipe on fast. I used to go to Sephora for makeup but I find the women who work the cosmetic counters at Bigalow's, an old drug store in the West Village, much more knowledgeable. I've gotten good lipsticks from them, the latest of which are Clarins Paris, shades of pink and melon, though I usually go for reds. I also recently picked up a tube of ruby "armour" lip gloss with a sponge applicator at the fancy place where I get my hair cut—my stylist left the old place for the fancy one and I followed her; they let her charge me the old price, so I feel sort of like a scholarship student at an elite private school. They bring me my own little french press coffee urn with a china cup and saucer on a silver tray, or champagne, or ice water in a crystal glass—but I digress, sigh. (I love to be spoiled, and sometimes at night, I sit brushing my hair while I watch TV; it's just so comforting and I hold a lot of tension in my scalp.) I guess the whole ritual is kind of comforting. |

LOL
True story. I'll be 52 in five months and most people don't believe me. I'm very fussy about my hair. Night time I put on "That Dragonfly Stuff" on my feet and throw on spa socks. Then I use my new love the Artica Rosa Eyecream from Kiehl's (hello Duchess! I adore this stuff) and go to sleep. Did I mention low maintenance? |

I use all natural products for cleaning my skin. A dampened cotton ball with olive oil to remove make up. I wash with Plain Yogurt and follow that with a brown sugar scrub. If its morning I follow that with sunscreen. If its bedtime, with olive oil. I like the Physicians Line of make up. Eyeshadows very. I have been with this routine since I was in my early 20s. When others try to guess my age they miss it by 10-12 years. So does the guy at the fair. I always walk out with a stuffed animal.

Bubble bath every morning but I'm pretty much in and out week days unless up before my alarm. No additional soap or cleansers, just the bubbles. Weekends, I'll soak foreveeeeer. Moisturising from head to toe as soon as I'm out. Sometimes I take a longer bubble bath in the evening if I feel the need to unwind.
Hair washed every day and light conditioner on the ends. I use a hand held shower head while still in the bath. Always blow dry my hair and sometimes straighten it if I'm in the mood. Products vary, I pretty much go with what smells the yummiest and is on special offer. Every day makeup is neutral shadow, mascara, natural lip gloss or fairly subdued lipstick. More if I'm going somewhere special or for evenings out. Then I'll add a light foundation, eye liner, blush and probably use stronger colours. Again brands vary. My current favourite eye make up is Bourjois. My routine takes around 40 minutes but I can be out the door in 20 if it is a case of life or death!

Low maintenance here...
I just don't have the patience anymore. I can go from shower to out-the-door in 30 minutes flat.
Facial scrub, shampoo, body wash - in that order. Right out of the shower I lotion from head to toe. Sling on facial moisturizer, coverup, powder, mascara and some color on the lips. You will almost NEVER find me w/o lipstick. There's just something about that dry feeling on naked lips that I cannot stand. Weird, I know. Mousse the hair, blow it dry, finger it with pomade. Done! No products worth mentioning really. I'm a low budget ho. .gif "Say What?")

I hear you. I can be out the door in half an hour or less. It sounds like I do a lot but it's fast. And I do use expensive products but I alternate with less expensive ones. I never thought of myself as high maintenance or high femme. I love to camp and I'm not whiny about not having hot water etc., and I don't pack a suitcase full of shoes—in fact I always just take carry-on and a small bag no matter where I go or for how long. |

If for whatever reason I can not have a bubble bath and wash my hair, such as when my boiler was out of action for a week last winter or when the power has been out, a spit wash and quick comb will suffice. Pouting? Possibly (read:definitely), but no tantrums or histrionics. And my love of shoes does not stretch to paying for extra baggage allowance. Ever.
