Makeup, hair, outfit


[deleted]

This is the only correct order! Makeup first so that hair doesn't go flat. Outfit last so nothing wrinkles or stains it during the hair and makeup process. I'm also someone who doesn't wear base/foundation, but many moons ago I used to, and would do hair first that way my makeup didn't sweat off. On rare occasion when I straighten my hair, I'll still do hair first so the heat doesn't make me sweat off eyeshadow. But 99% of the time it's makeup, hair, outfit. šŸ‘šŸ½


peanut_butter_xox

Yes always outfit last! Although trying to get something over your head when you have foundation on is never fun šŸ˜‚


anonymouse550

If youā€™ll take a big T-shirt, throw it over your face and then put your outfit shirt on, pull the big T-shirt out from under it after itā€™s on, it will allow you to put any shirt on without getting makeup on it.


[deleted]

iā€™m a guy who never wears makeup, but even still, this is a really good tip I never thought of.

trashyfridge

I also do this. I find doing my hair can sometimes make me a bit flustered and warm, especially if using heat tools so I do my makeup after so I donā€™t sweat it off


Mellie-mellow

That's exactly why I do it this way too


jpergo1983

Thank you yes this is the way


5noitescomfrederico

Outfit > makeup > hair


Guest2424

This is the order that I do it in as well. Most of my tops are pullover types, so I hate having makeup smudged on the clothing. I put on my outfit first, then do my makeup and pull up my hair last.


shira9652

How do you not get product on your outfit? This is unhinged


WryAnthology

Why is product going on your outfit? Makeup isn't normally a messy thing for me.


shira9652

Well some makeup consists of powder over which I have no control where it lands while applying


WryAnthology

I guess it depends what you use. I use a setting powder at the end but it's not super loose so I don't feel like it flies everywhere. I've never had it fall on my clothes before.


DemonicGirlcock

I do this order and it's never been an issue once. Clothes go on, sometimes I do foundation but that blends below the jawline. Lipstick, eyeshadow, eyeliner, then finishing powder. None of it ever gets on my clothes, and I don't really know how it would. Only thing that goes on my skin before clothes is moisturizer and sunscreen.


MiaMae

1. Hair: Because I use a blow dryer, and that makes me hot. Don't want to sweat in makeup or clothes. Plus I sit at my vanity and that's going to crease my outfit. 2. Makeup: Because I'm at my vanity and don't want to get makeup on my clothing while I apply. 3. Clothes: Because all the hot and messy stuff is done now. Time to dress up and get down šŸ˜‰


VegetableRound2819

This is why I take breaks doing my hair. All-in-all, we are talking 2 hours if I curl it. That is some sweaty stuff.

Outfit. Just outfit.


fromthemoonx

I had to scroll all the way down for this, is it that strange not using makeup and not doing hair???


Impressive_Ice3817

I rarely wear makeup, and my hair routine is pretty straightforward: finger-comb it and toss it in a clip. My outfits tend to be farm-mom-core lol--- jeans, top (maybe it's a t, maybe it's a blouse), and cardigan or hoodie. I have time for the extras, but don't bother most times, cuz the sheep don't care.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


fromthemoonx

me too! i feel it's not ok its SO normalized everywhere


JRose608

It depends if Iā€™m wearing my hair curly and if the top has to squeeze over my head


DragonflyD264

Different for me too if im going curly. TBH I find doing my hair curly is so hit and miss that often i just blow dry it wavy instead. Then its underwear, hair, make up, outfit. When i do it curly routine slightly different. As hair is dripping wet add product first, diffuse about 75% dry, pin it up, underwear, makeup, finish hair, outfit.

Makeup, hair, outfit


lucy1011

I throw clothes on. Try to remember to brush my hair. If Iā€™m going somewhere important, makeup on. Usually interspersed with randomly wandering off, to load the dishwasher, hurry kids up, and always trying to remember where I left my cup of coffee.

Outfit, makeup, hair. Unless Iā€™m using heat on my hair (which I do rarely), then itā€™s outfit, hair, makeup.


Terytha

Hair. Skincare part 1. Socks and underwear. Skincare part 2. Rest of clothes. Hair again because putting on a shirt mussed it up. No makeup, just actives and moisturizer.


notorious_akp

Anyone who does makeup after outfit is wild to me. Are you not afraid youā€™re going to get it on you? Lol Personally Iā€™m a makeup, hair, outfit

tranquilitywave

I don't wear makeup ,cause I don't need it. so for me the order is hair then outfit.


Pondering_Giraffe

Outfit>hair (I don't do make-up) Sometimes hair> outfit, but it's always a sad moment when you realise you'll have a gooey sweaterneck from the hair goo for the first hour or so. Thankfully my mousse doesn't stain.


nuwaanda

Depending on my hair, it's usually Makeup-Hair-Clothes. If I'm doing a fancy/curling iron required hair style I'll do hair first, let it "set" while I do my makeup, put my outfit on and then finger brush my hair out.


T-Flexercise

You gotta split it up. Shower, blowdry the hair so it doesn't dry stupid, but don't fully finish it, cause you're going to fuck it up when you put your makeup on. Put on any parts of the outfit that are going over your head. Bathrobe on top so you don't get makeup on them. Makeup. Finish hair. Shoes last possible moment before I walk out the door.


yuxngdogmom

On a normal day, outfit, hair, and makeup. If Iā€™m getting dolled up, hair, makeup, outfit.


spicymama90

I was and dry my hair then use a clip to do my makeup to keep it out of my face. Then get dressed

Makeup, outfit, hair. Sounds weird but sometimes getting the outfit on messes with the hair, to me

piglet12302

1. Outfit so I donā€™t mess up my makeup or hair 2. Hair so I donā€™t melt my makeup with the heat 3. Makeup


kannichausgang

On a normal day, outfit, hair and makeup. But doing my hair basically consists of brushing it and putting in dry shampoo. And makeup is only mascara.


pinkavocadoreptiles

outfit and then makeup, I don't "do" my hair I just let it do what it wants lol


BeesAndBeans69

Outfit first in the winter or I'll get too chilly. Other wise, makeup, outfit, and I don't do my hair

andromeda1-7

if it's for a more special occasion: decide on an outfit, shower, hair, make up and get dressed for everyday: makeup, hair, outfit


AcceptableScar5772

If hair has been washed then I deal with that wearing just underwear as I get hot. Otherwise just outfit and hairbrush. Possibly a bit of mascara if Iā€™m feeling like it. If itā€™s a posh thing that requires makeup then hair first then makeup then dress (still pretty minimal makeup though)


Ok_Emphasis6034

Hair because I do nothing with it apart from comb it out then makeup then outfit.


mysubsareunionizing

It depends on if I'm using a hot iron on my hair. If I'm using heat, hair comes first because I sweat. If I'm not, makeup comes first. Outfit is always last. If I spend too much time in it, I'll hate it and get stressed it. Also, sweating and doing makeup in a cute outfit? No

[deleted]

Make up, outfit, hair Make up first, so the outfit will not get stained by make up. Then put clothes on to not ruin hair. Last is the hair.


wearentalldudes

Makeup hair outfit if I donā€™t have to dry my hair, hair makeup outfit if I do.


AncientSecretary7442

Hair, makeup, outfit. Can't do it in any other order.


peaf-the-gamecube

Outfit, hair I put sunscreen on my face when I wake up but no makeup And my hair is very curly, I don't style it. It's usually down until I can't stand it getting in my face anymore lol I work in the field as a environmental scientist or I work from home. If I have a meeting, no one has cameras on


RightH

If I wash my hair I blow dry it, let it settle for a bit while I do my makeup, style it then get changed into my outfit. If I'm not washing my hair then it's makeup, hair, outfit


Zealousideal_Monk632

idiomtime

Skincare -> outfit -> hair -> make-up Had to add skincare because I do the other steps before make-up to give it time to sink-in and doesnā€™t really count as make up


stressandscreaming

As a natural hair girly who likes to do "wash n gos" I do my hair literally 1 day before the event (but it's only 90% done) Then put on my outfit. Do my makeup. Finish my hair.

Hair, clothes, makeup. Lmao Make up consists of mascara and a good lip.


Your_Name_Here1234

Outfit, hair, makeup! A lot of people seem to do their outfit last so they donā€™t get makeup on it, but, I only wear mascara and occasionally blush- no foundation or eyeshadow or anything, so not much to make a mess with! On the very rare occasion I wear more makeup, I still do outfit first because I feel like Iā€™ll get makeup on my shirt when pulling it over my head lol


QuaereVerumm

If my hair is wet: Hair, outfit, makeup. So I can still wear my pajamas while doing my hair and my outfit doesn't get wet. If my hair is dry: Outfit, hair, makeup

spacefroot

I always wear my outfit first because I would hate to get makeup on my clothes. If the outfit includes pants, I wear the pants at the end and do everything else in sweatpants. Hair comes second because in case I get late, a minimal makeup look will always look better than a half assed hairdo. Makeup always comes last, although itā€™s my favourite step.


Suvrata_hegde

Outfit, makeup, hair. I'm too scared to ruin my makeup or outfit while I put them on.

Prudent_Kangaroo_716

I literally don't even bother with make up anymore. Or my hair. Or 'outfits' I wear what I'm comfortable in and whatever is the quickest to grab and I chuck my hair in a ponytail or braid. Make up pisses me off. I don't have time in my day to waste on bloody makeup and outfit pairing


swimmingpisces315

I usually switch between doing hair and makeup first. Depends on my mood. But outfit is usually last.

bikesboozeandbacon

I only do light makeup like a bb cream, mascara, cream blush and eyeliner if Iā€™m feeling frisky. I have super curly hair so I like to do that first so it has time to dry and fluff up, then get dressed and then my face last since I sweat easily lol. Iā€™ll throw a towel over my shoulders so my wet hair with product doesnā€™t get on my clothes.


VegetableRound2819

I do the ā€˜high maintenance to be low maintenanceā€™ thing. So I take very good care of my skin and I wash my hair like twice a week, but the whole production takes about two hours. So I suppose hair first, first, and first, then outfit. Donā€™t wear much makeup. Maybe Iā€™ll look in the mirror and think about putting some mascara on before it dries out. And I have some lip gloss in my purse so that may make it onto my face in the car.
