Hi, my name is Alexis Foreman and Get the Gloss have asked me to take part in their
Get the Gloss in Seven challenge. So I'm ready. I think I'm a little bit nervous. I don't think
I've ever managed to do my makeup in seven minutes, but I can try. I'm going to do a look
and that look is quite a quite a natural look with a bold lip.
So right, I've got my timer on this phone here. Seven minutes and I'm starting now.
Right, first things first. Glossier. I'm not going to talk through everything because I know what
will happen is I'll be talking too much and time will run away with me. So this is Future Dew
Glow Serum so that I get that nice fresh day look. Bobby Brown Skin Serum Foundation. I am
going to use my fingers because I think it's quicker. Plus I use my fingers usually anyway.
Sometimes I use a brush. Okay, and then just a tiny bit extra coverage on areas where I go red.
So I've got this Hourglass Foundation Stick in a colour called Shell, which is nice and light.
I'm going to use a brush for this one. It Cosmetics brush. Oh my gosh, I think we're
I'm not even going to check the time currently. I'm just going to get this foundation layer on.
Okay, how's that? That's all right. Under eyes, Bobby Brown Colour Corrector just to
get rid of the dark circles. And then I'm going to put a little bit more concealer under my eye
because I'm probably tired today. And now this is where I go a bit red there. So
okay. Let's check time. Oh my gosh. Okay. Five minutes. Five minutes, 10 left. Oh my gosh.
Okay. Come on, Alexis, you can do this. You can do this. It's within your power. Okay.
Right. That's that done. Right. What's next? Right. Eyes. I'm going to use these Laura Mercier
Shadow Sticks because they're quite quick. This one, I don't know what colour it is. It's just
really natural. Okay. Blend, blend, blend. Oh my goodness. People better not look too close today.
Okay. And then a little bit of a dark colour just on the outside in the crease.
Oh, I've forgotten to do my bronzer. Right. Okay. Then. Okay. So that'll do.
Bronzer. I use this Trish McEvoy colour. What's it called? Something correcting something,
something. And it's in this darkest shade. So I just kind of treat it a bit like a cream
bronzer. Oh my gosh. Kind of like just drawing randomly on my face. We will rectify.
Hourglass brush. Blending, blending, blending, blending, blending, blending,
blending, blending. Actually started sweating. I've started sweating. Three minutes 30. What,
what, what? I think I've put too much bronzer on. Oh dear. Highly bronzed.
Sweat. Got a right sweat on guys. Got a right sweat on. Okay. Right. I'm going to just prep my
eyebrows. Can't get the lid off. With Blink brow bar. Can't get it off. Got it.
My hands are sweating. Okay. Let's get the, just get my eyebrows ready and I'm going to use a,
one of those little thin brush, um, brow products in a minute when that's dry. Uh, right.
Mascara. I'm going to curl my lashes. How much time? Bollocks. Right. Two minutes 30. Right.
Okay. Come on. Come on. I'm home stretch now. Kind of. Um, okay. I'll do a glossier mascara
on lash slick like this mascara. That's good. I don't know how other people have done this. I
don't know how they've managed to do it. I feel like other people who've done this challenge
have done much more makeup than me. How is this possible? Really? Come back for a second layer
of that. If we have time. If, if, if. One minute 30. Goodness gracious me. Let's get the,
let's get the eyebrows in. Let's do that. Just a couple of little natural extra sweeps going in
here. Just to kind of beef up what I've got. Nothing too crazy. Yeah. This is a Mac one.
Can't remember what the actual product name is, but it's good. Flip, flip, flip, flip, flip. 58
seconds. Okay. Tiny bit of blusher. This is an Elizabeth Arden one called honey cream blush.
Not that I really need it. Bit of highlighter on the top lip here. Cheekbones. This is made,
made.com. Okay. Lips. Yikes. This is NARS liquid lip in don't stop. I'm just not going to do a
great job of this. I can feel it. Oh, that timer's going to go off in a minute. Oh my goodness. Oh
my goodness. No. I've got lipstick on my teeth. Time's gone off. Timer has gone off. Okay. I did
it. I can't say I'm pleased with it. It's not quite as precise as I'd like, but, um,
and I need another layer of mascara and I've got makeup all over my hands, but there it is guys.
Get the gloss in seven with lipstick on your teeth. Okay. That was tough. So thanks. Get the
gloss for causing me mild panic this morning. Anyway, um, there you go.
