1. Fresh and wild
To quickly brighten tired-looking eyes, dont just apply concealer over dark circles. Take in the inner corners of the upper eyelid too, where theres usually dark discolouration. Then blend down to the corners of the nose and out towards the cheeks until it fades in.
2. Sparkly shimmer
To perk up olive or dark skin, I mix Stila All Over Shimmer Liquid Luminizer, with concealer to instantly obliterate any dark, undereye shadows.
3. Brilliant blush
A rosy blush right on the apples of the cheeks makes washed-out skin look healthy. Blusher wears off quickly so use a densely pigmented powder blush to lock in that glow. My favourite is Bourjois Blusher, in Cendre de Roses Brune.
4. High brow
Shapely brows act like a mini face-lift. To get that definition instantly, I use Models Prefer Automatic Eyebrow Pencil, (taupe suits most complexions) to fill in brows and enhance the shape, even without plucking.
5.Luscious luminiser
To create a glamorous, glossy effect in seconds, I apply Revlon Skinlights Lotion, a luminising product over the eyelids. It makes the eyes really stand out.
6. Fast and furious
To freshen up your make-up fast, whisk a cleansing wipe over your face, then apply Stila Petal Infusions Moisturiser, which leaves a matte finish so you can reapply your base right away. Leave on your original mascara and add two more coats for extra glamour.
7. What a cheek
When I work with Jennifer Lopez, I always sweep St Tropez Bronzer Powder, along the bottom of her cheekbones, then dust the highest part of the cheekbones with a loose shimmer powder. It instantly enhances the angles of the face.
8. In a fix
For a two-minute skin fix, I recommend applying The Sanctuary Warming Charcoal Detox Mask, to absorb toxins, warm the complexion and soften the skin. Katy Hill used it recently when she had flu and it worked wonders.
9. Instant boost
Just a one-minute blitz of facial exfoliation dramatically improves the look of the skin by getting rid of dead skin cells and boosting blood flow. Sarah Manners says Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant, totally transforms her skin.
10. Lift-me-up
To add a perky sheen to a tired complexion, I use Almay Glow Healthy Skin Brightener, pounds as an all-over base under foundation. Lisa Snowdon really loves it because it makes her skin look radiant all day.
11. Super serum
For instant skin rejuvenation, apply a skin serum to the tips of the fingers and pitter- patter it all over the face. It brings blood to the top layers of the skin to warm the complexion. Lisa Faulkner uses Elemis Skin Bliss Capsules.
12. Smooth operator
To seriously hydrate dry-looking skin, apply a product containing hyaluron this plumps out lines in seconds. Lisa B and Samantha Mumba use Vita Liberata Daily Skin Firm Serum, for an instantly smoother complexion.
13. Pucker up, buttercup
The quickest way to brighten up your face is to slick on a shiny lipgloss. It diffuses light and makes the lips look fuller. The Models Prefer Pucker Up Lipstick Collection, has soft shades that make lips look younger.
A cream blush with a shimmery finish quickly brings a face to life. When I work with Jamelia, I apply Maybelline New York Dream Mousse Blush in Dolly Pink, on her cheeks, then dab a little under the brows as well to lift her eyes.
15. Perfect pout
A ballet-slipperpink lipgloss immediately makes the whole face look softer, prettier and younger. Try BeneFit The Gloss in Thigh Highs. If you need more definition on your lips than gloss alone, just add the pink on top of a brown-toned lipstick. It makes all the difference.
