In college, it's easy to sleep past the alarm--maybe even set a record for the times hitting snooze. But sometimes when you reach a level of consciousness that tells you it's really time to get up, it's already too late. Class is in less than 15 minutes, and you look like you've been in slumber for days. So you jolt out of bed, scrambling to find something that resembles a halfway-decent outfit, and you just want a little makeup for the day.
Or maybe you are just feeling a little lazy today. Either way, these products can be your five-minute-makeup-fix.
Moisturizer
Especially moving into the colder months, it is important to hydrate your skin. The cold weather can dry out your skin, so you want a good moisturizer, and one that contains SPF 30 is even better.
Her Campus pick: Aveeno Positively Radiant Moisturizer ($14)
BB Cream
BB Cream can do more than foundation. One of it's main selling points is that it's not just covering up an uneven skin tone--it is working to improve it. There are different types of BB Creams that serve different purposes, including helping acne or wrinkles. The Her Campus pick smooths skin, hides imperfections, hydrates, and corrects complexion.
Her Campus pick: L'Oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream ($8)
Undereye Concealer
An undereye concealer can be just what you need if you haven't been getting great sleep. It helps minimize the appearance of under the eye circles, and it brightens it highlighting the area under your eyes.
Her Campus Pick: Femme Couture Flawless Touch Undereye Concealer ($6)
Add a little color to your cheeks! And do it on a budget. This Her Campus pick is only $3, and gives your face a nice glow.

Eyeliner
Do you ever notice that your eyeliner fades throughout the day or it looks like you never applied it in the first place? The Her Campus pick, Ink It, won't let you down that way. It's a super long-lasting, non-smudging eyeliner that is easy to apply.
Her Campus Pick: Cover Girl Ink It ($6)
Mascara
Mascara is the easiest step. You can even throw it in your bag if you like to reapply later. Just a few swabs are all you need. This Her Campus pick will give you flawless lashes with great volume.
Her Campus Pick: Maybelline Volum' Express Mascara ($6)
No need to worry over time. With these products, you won't have to freak out every time you over-snooze. Need a quick-fix to do your hair, too? Check out "5 Minute Hairstyles For the Collegiette" on Her Campus.
