Being a mum is a big job, but being a preened, relaxed-looking mum with chic hair and make-up is a whole new ball game.
Besides being busy chasing around the kids and toting nappy bags, there’s also the lack of sleep and increasing stress levels to deal with – especially if you’re a single mum. Which is why we’ve done our bit and come to the rescue with some of the best multi-tasking beauty products for the unsung heroes in our lives, our mums…

Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Illuminating Veil
“I love this product! I typically use it on my shoulders and collarbones for a night out. It's warm and shimmery without being over the top. I also use it on my cheekbones and it gives me a beautiful glow. I use the attached brush when applying to my body and use a regular face brush when applying to my cheeks. This product is inexpensive and lasts forever.” Rating: 4/5 – Whiteswan99

Sounds lovely. My secret is Rosehip oil and a moisturier with a built in sunscreen, i let my skin drink it up for five minutes then apply my foundation at the moment im using L'oreal Infallible in nude beige and add a hint of pink shimmer blush my cheekbones. Makes me feel a little glamourous before i start my very busy day.

To look instantly glam (well, almost instantly!) I good washing and exfoliation of my face then a good 'fluffing' up of my hair which helps a lot! When my hair sits flat on my head I'm a superdag but when I fluff it up I can look completely and instantly very different - thank goodness!

Definately a good skin illuminator helps you feel fresher and younger. It is particularly good for when you have uneven skin tone.

This sounds nice and easy to use. I wonder if it is messy though? I always make such a mess with my mineral foundation and sometimes as a result, to much ends up on my face! I am a busy mum and I do not have any secrects on looking glam! I wish I could look glam for my hubby :-)
