According to a new British study, the average woman spends 474 days of her lifetime (that’s one year, and 3 months) applying makeup and other cosmetics. Think there’s no way you devote that much time to “putting on your face.” Don’t be sure:

The women in the study spent just 14.5 minutes applying makeup on weekday mornings (on average), 24 minutes on a Saturday or Sunday, and every now and then, over an hour getting ready for a major night on the town.

The most time-consuming task of the primping routine: Getting the eyes just right. (For most women, this tiny piece of real estate takes up 25 percent of their total makeup time.)
