Beauty In A Hurry: The 5 Minute Face Challenge
June 11, 2025 · 20 min

In this episode, Sarah Marie and Kelly take on the 5-minute makeup challenge, breaking down their go-to products and techniques for those mornings when you're racing against the clock.

Sarah Marie swears by her powder-heavy approach (complete with products she adorably keeps in their original boxes), while Kelly's "just-enough-to-not-terrify-your-ex" strategy involves slapping on cream sticks with carefree confidence. We teach you how to level up your 5-minute routine, and Sarah Marie flexes her pro MUA credentials, casually revealing she could overhaul a bride’s entire glam between “I do” and entrée — a claim Kelly may have side-eyed at first, but quickly came to admire.
