Getting ready for the day – or the evening – can be … well, it depends, really. Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's fast, and sometimes it's just tiresome. I feel that way occasionally when I'm getting ready to go out. There are days when I just need a little inspiration as I apply a fierce face and do something fabulous with my hair. You know how I give myself a boost? Music! These are the songs I listen to when I'm getting pretty. Add yours! ## 1. Florence + the Machine – Kiss with a Fist I … don't know why I like listening to this when I get ready, but I do. There's something a little punk about, plus I admit, I love the lyrics. ## 2. Beyoncé – Who Run the World? GIRLS. ## 3. Prince Ft. Sheena Easton – U Got the Look This is particularly fitting in light of Prince's recent, tragic passing. RIP, Prince. Thank you for making us all feel a little more fabulous. ## 4. Fergie Ft. Ludacris – Glamorous Fergie makes me dance around the bathroom. I fully admit that I sing into my brush and pose in the mirror. Sometimes I even kiss my reflection. ## 5. Hozier – Take Me to Church I've loved this song since I first saw the heartbreaking video, but the song itself also has the power to make me feel … well, like I'm the woman Hozier's singing about, actually. ## 6. Third Eye Blind – Semi-Charmed Life This has been a go-to for me since high school. That beat, man. That gets me excited about getting ready. ## 7. TLC – No Scrubs Same here. I don't look for boys when I go out, scrubs or otherwise (I'm married to a sugar momma, I don't need no scrubs), but this song still puts a strut in my step. ## 8. Lady Gaga – Marry the Night To be honest, any of Gaga's songs will make you feel like a queen as you're getting ready to walk out the door. This one's just my favorite. ## 9. Shakira – She Wolf Shakira just … god, I love her. ## 10. Christina Aguilera Feat. Lil’ Kim – Can’t Hold Us down Regretfully, I am not as into Christina as I once was. That being said, this song does things to me. It puts a little extra pep in my step. ## 11. Rihanna – Hard Rhi does, too. She can make a girl feel so frigging empowered. ## 12. Katy Perry – Part of Me What? I can't explain it. ## 13. The Pussycat Dolls – I Don’t Need a Man Ahahaha, I really don't. You don't either. ## 14. Queen – Don't Stop Me Now Queen will never not make me feel awesome. ## 15. Panic! at the Disco – La Devotee Everyone needs a song like this on their makeup playlist, even if it's not this particular song. ## 16. Taylor Swift – Shake It off As you're applying your favorite cosmetics and feeling your look, remember this: if you don't have a single hater, you're doing something wrong. ## 17. Demi Lovato – Confident This goes without saying, right? ## 18. Beyoncé – Single Ladies Of course, that was before Lemonade dropped. I think Bey is going to feature even more heavily on my playlist. How do you rock out when you're putting on makeup and getting ready to step out? ## Related Posts - [new artist to listen to](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/amazing-artists-you-need-to-listen-to-right-now/) - [girls party songs](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/upbeat-party-songs-for-ladies-who-love-to-dance/) - [songs about the end of the world](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/songs-that-shocked-the-world/) - [late night car rides](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/songs-to-listen-to-during-midnight-drives-with-your-man/) - [jammin songs](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/summer-songs-to-get-you-groovin/) - [cheer me up songs](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/feel-good-songs-to-listen-to-when-you-need-to-cheer-up/) - [wish you well amir obe lyrics](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/fresh-new-songs-youre-going-to-flip-over/) - [ballads from the 90s](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/powerful-love-songs-that-were-sung-back-in-the-90s/) - [cool spotify hacks](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/spotify-tricks-that-every-music-lover-should-learn/) - [chores of a song](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/be-inspired-to-do-your-chores-by-these-music-videos/) - [8 Sexy Songs to Get You in the Mood ...](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/sexy-songs-to-get-you-in-the-mood/) - [9 Love Songs to Listen to when You Are in a Fight ...](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/love-songs-to-listen-to-when-you-are-in-a-fight/) ## Site Information - [Main page](https://allwomenstalk.com) - [Contact us](https://allwomenstalk.com/contact.html) - [HTML article](https://music.allwomenstalk.com/listen-to-these-badass-songs-while-applying-your-makeup/)
