Martha Stewart doesn’t spend hours stewing over her beauty routine.

The star broke down her “under five minute” makeup look via Instagram on Monday, telling followers her speedy glam regimen is “easier than making a pot of soup.”

As for the key ingredients? Stewart, who recently partnered with Merit, starts off her streamlined routine with the brand’s Great Skin Instant Glow Serum ($38) and Great Skin Priming Moisturizer ($38).

“I remember my daughter telling me, ‘Mom, please don’t embarrass me,” she recalled while applying the products. “Please, when you leave the house, don’t wear your apron — and please put a little bit of makeup on your face.”

The domestic doyenne embraced minimal makeup during the clip, reaching for Merit’s two-in-one foundation and concealer stick — The Minimalist ($38) — before swiping on the equally portable Bronze Balm ($30) and Day Glow Highlighting Balm ($32).

In addition to Brow 1980 Pomade ($24) and a swipe of the brand’s creamy Solo Shadow ($24) on each eyelid, Stewart topped off the look with a swipe of Clean Lash Mascara ($26).

“I love mascara; I have nice long eyelashes and I love to show them off,” she explained.

Finally, for the pièce de résistance of her dewy makeup look, the star added some shimmer with the brand’s Shade Slick in Taupe ($24).

The octogenarian icon is no stranger to curating a great beauty routine, having entered the fashion industry as a teenager.

“I actually started modeling when I was a very young girl,” she explained during her tutorial, saying she made “$15 an hour, which was a lot better than the 50 cents I was making as a babysitter.”

And while the star’s booking far bigger gigs these days — including becoming the oldest Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover girl in history — she’s still known to switch up her routine on occasion.

“I am very inquisitive about skincare and am always trying new products,” she told Page Six Style in 2023.
