Okay round 1 of my “look great in eight” was an epic, epic, epic disaster. I wildly underestimated how much time it would take for me to do even just the minimum! And not only was I flustered and panicked alone in my bathroom ( there’s a sentence you don’t ever want to have to write ), but I filmed every single moment of it.

If you missed it, I’m doing a little series of videos in which I try to look put together for the day in about 15 minutes. Initially I was shooting for 8 minutes, but you can watch that concept crash and burn in the video below.

So, for your viewing pleasure:

Anyway, we’re doing fresh in fifteen. Use the hashtag #freshinfifteen to show your before and afters, and share any pointers or tips you have for getting ready fast.

I’m doing this to practice shaving down time and learning to focus on the only a few things in order to feel put together. That goes a long way in making me feel ready to take on the day.

I hope you have better luck than I did the first time, and I’d love to see your before and afters on Instagram!
