We’ve all experienced it: the morning rush. Whether morning comes too early and we hit snooze one too many times, something goes wrong and sets us off on the wrong foot, or there are just too many things to take care of.

Efficiency is key in the morning, so in an effort to help you save some valuable time, we’ve condensed your Silk Therapeutics beauty regimen into a simple five-minute ritual that will leave you fresh-faced, provide a little boost of energy and confidence, and help you get out the door on time- all while looking your very best.

First, prep for success by setting up your space ahead of time:

-Store your cleanser in the shower

-Keep your other skincare products together

-Have a washcloth or wipe and towel nearby for removing product and drying your skin after rinsing

There’s no need to fuss over applying or rinsing; just follow these steps for beautiful, healthy skin in a jiffy:

5 Minutes to Beautiful Skin

1. You Clean Up Well! – During your morning shower, use a gentle cleanser to rid your skin of any dirt or debris that has accumulated overnight. (30 seconds)

2. Peel Away Fatigue – Enjoy a three-minute energy burst with Silk Renewing Peel. Apply, avoiding eyes and nasal membranes. In 3 minutes, wipe off and rinse gently. (4 minutes total)

3. Prep and Prime– Smooth and tighten your skin with a dime size amount of the Silk Smoothing Complex for a perfect skin palate. (15 seconds)

4. R’Eyes & Shine! – Layer tired eyes with Silk Eye Revive for a quick pick-me-up. (30 seconds)

5. Be a Part of the Hydration Nation – Follow with a dose of healthy hydration such as Silk Nourishing Moisturizer or Nuture++ (coming soon!) to ensure moisture stays locked in all day long. (30 seconds)

6. Finish with a light layer of sun protection with an SPF 30 or higher. (15 seconds)

Voila! Your skin should look alive and fresh and you feel more confident and awake. What better way to spend five minutes a day?

If only your commute was this easy…
