5 THINGS TO MAKE YOU LOOK FABULOUS, FAST
If it's a pimple that's a-brewin' (quakes), you need Sonya Dakar's fast-acting {Blemish Buster} - an on-the-spot treatment that's brimming with zit-zapping lavender, camphor and colloidal silver ions, to quickly quash any unwelcome eruptions. Salicylic acid works to clarify pores and exfoliate gently - just dab on clean skin and allow a few seconds to dry before bed. You'll wake up clear-skinned (and incredibly smug).
If your morning-time ritual involves hitting the snooze button 24 times before panic-preparing for work in ten minutes, Blithe's clever {Splash Masks} are just what the lazy girl ordered. These innovative, in-shower masks are enriched with soothing, firming, or revitalising extracts - just splash and pat repeatedly while you will yourself into 'awake-ness'. The ultimate, ultra-easy way, to kick-start each day looking luminous.
And, if it's too late for preventative measures, you're going to need a good concealer... W3ll PEOPLE's {Bio Correct} formula is chock-full of good-for-skin extracts - including pomegranate, coffee and line-smoothing peptides - to correct as it camouflages. With a featherweight, full-coverage formula, simply press onto pimples, blend under the eyes or apply with a brush to disguise discolouration. It's a definitive handbag must-have...
Looking a bit peely-wally? Reach for blusher - few things grant such an immediate semblance of 'youth' and wellbeing. Pixi's split-pan {Beauty Blush Duo} comes complete with fluffy brush for flawless application. The dusky rose colour is pinched-your-cheeks perfect, while the subtle, gold-toned highlight creates an enviable, soft focus glow. A further dab of highlight on your brow bone, Cupid's bow and at the inner corner of each eye will finish things off beautifully.
