A MOTHER has shared the 12-step routine she swears by to be the hottest mum on the school run.
So if your skin is looking lacklustre and you’re eager to have a glow up but have no idea where to start, then you’ve come to the right place.


So if you want to turn heads and look as gorgeous as Faith when you drop your little ones off, you’ll need to take notes[/caption]
Faith Coe loves this moisturising primer from Primark, which is only £5[/caption]
A content creator named Faith Coe revealed the products she uses for flawless skin, including a £5 buy from Primark you won’t want to miss.
Not only this, but she also gave her followers a close-up look at the setting spray you need that will ensure your make-up stays in place all day.
Posting on social media, Faith revealed her “12-step make-up to be the hottest on the school run”, leaving many totally stunned.
Faith tucked into a coffee as she kicked off her morning routine which first of all, involves the “de-shed”.
With this step, the brunette removed her hair bonnet that she slept in to protect her locks, as well as her chin strap and mouth tape, which is said to “freeze ageing”.
For the second step, the mother goes in with her moisturiser.
Faith swore by the PS…Prep + Perfect Flawless Primer, which you can buy for just £5 from Primark.
Not only does the moisturiser work to “protect your skin from the sun”, but it also provides a “surge of moisture and hydration into the skin”.
For the third step, the influencer applied a primer to her face.
She confirmed that she used the Melon Jelly Dewy Primer from The Beauty Crop, which “helps to hydrate and smooth the skin and make your make-up last all day”.
Following this, Faith then applied a skin tint, as she swore by L’Oreal Paris True Match.
The Plumping Tinted Skin Serum is just £14.99 from Boots and according to the listing, is an “innovative formula combining the benefits of a skincare serum with the radiance and coverage of a foundation.”
Top 3 beauty products every woman should be using
Hayley Walker, Beauty Expert at Justmylook shared the holy-grail products every woman needs to be using.
A cleanser, SPF, and hair oil are must-haves within beauty routines.
A cleanser is crucial for healthy skin as it removes dirt, oil, and other impurities for flawless skin. This skincare step not only cleanses the face and removes dirt, but also prevents breakouts and premature skin ageing, helping you maintain a healthy, youthful, and blemish-free complexion.
The Aveeno Face Calm+ Restore Nourishing Oat Cleanser is a go-to of mine due to its gentle formula that soothes and restores the skin’s appearance and texture.
SPF is non-negotiable and should be in everyone’s daily skincare routine.
Even on cooler, cloudier days, our skin is exposed to the sun’s UV rays which can be harmful to unprotected skin and even lead to damage. These damages include sunburn, pigmentation changes, and wrinkles which can impact the skin’s texture and appearance. In some cases, prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause skin cancer.
Applying SPF daily prevents these damages and protects the skin from harmful rays. I recommend the Beauty Of Joseon Rice & Prebiotic Sunscreen PA++++ SPF50+ for its lightweight, non-clumping texture that absorbs quickly for a natural finish and maximum protection.
Hair oil has many benefits and should be regularly used. This treatment can strengthen and protect the hair from external stressors while improving its appearance and shine. Regularly applying hair oil can also reduce breakage and even encourage hair growth for longer, fuller locks. Hair oils also target the scalp, reducing dandruff and improving its health through exfoliation.
I recommend using this deeply nourishing treatment a couple of times a week or more depending on the hair’s moisture levels. The Hair Syrup Rapunzel Pre-Wash Oil Treatment is a nutrient-rich treatment that revitalises strands to promote a happy scalp and healthy-looking locks. Apply the syrup throughout damp hair before washing; massage from root to tip and allow the formula to penetrate strands before rinsing and styling.
For the fifth step in her routine, the mum-of-three who often wakes up at 6am to kick off her morning routine, then applied concealer under her eyes, on her chin and a small amount in the middle of her forehead.
Contouring was the sixth step, which Faith used to define her cheekbones and add colour and depth to her face.
She then set her face with the Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder for the seventh step, which has been hailed as “a staple in every make-up artists’ kit” for an “iconic soft-focus finish with zero flashback.”
For the eighth step in the routine, Faith used a brush to add bronzer to her cheekbones, to further define and add colour to her face.

After this, she then applied a blusher to her cheeks and nose.
To set her make-up in place, Faith used The Beauty Crop Pore Filter Setting Mist, which is just £10 a bottle and ensures “long-lasting wear.”
Moments later, for the eleventh step in the routine, Faith applied mascara to her lashes.
And to finish off her look, Faith then put lipstick and lipgloss on her plump pout.
Big divide
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @faithcoe, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 117,900 views.
Not only this, but it’s also amassed 1,804 likes and 85 comments.
You are absolutely stunning
TikTok user
But social media users were left divided by the clip – while numerous beauty fans were impressed and thought Faith looked “pretty”, other mums claimed they don’t have the time for a 12-step routine each morning.
One person said: “I admire the dedication.”
Another added: “You are absolutely stunning.”
Biggest skincare trends for 2025
Face The Future’s Head of Clinic, Kimberley Medd, shared the five skincare trends predicted to take off in 2025.
1. Exosomes
Exosomes are the buzzword for 2025, taking advanced skin regeneration to new heights. These micro-messengers signal skin cells to repair damage, boost collagen, and accelerate recovery, and they’re a gamechanger for targeting ageing.
2. Streamlined Skincare
The age of 12-step routines is fading as consumers shift to more intentional, multi-functional products. Streamlining skincare not only saves time but also reduces the risk of overloading your skin. In 2025, we’ll see a rise in hybrid products that combine active ingredients for simplified, effective results.
3. Vegan Collagen
Plant-based collagen will dominate the skincare world this year, providing a sustainable, ethical alternative to traditional animal-derived collagen. Expect vegan collagen in everything from moisturisers to serums.
4. The Rise Of AI
AI is revolutionising the beauty landscape, making it possible for consumers to get truly personalised skincare solutions. In 2025, we predict a dramatic shift towards AI-powered tools that help people understand their skin on a deeper level.
5. Hair Loss Solutions –
Hair loss is an issue that affects more men than we often realise, and it’s no longer just something we’re talking about behind closed doors. This year, expect to see a continued rise in demand for treatments that not only tackle hair loss but also nurture overall scalp health.
A third commented: “Super pretty.”
But at the same time, one mother gasped: “No mum has time for all that in the morning.”
A second chimed in: “Yeah I ain’t got time for that and I ain’t got no one to impress on that school run.”
Meanwhile, one woman claimed: “Sorry but life is just too short.”
