A quick eye refresher can be found in your kitchen – slices of raw cucumber or potato can help reduce puffiness.

When you’re planning a hairstyle that needs strong hold, bend forward and blow-dry wet hair upside down, using your fingers, until it’s about 80 per cent dry, then add a styling product. For a more natural effect, apply your styling product to towel-dried hair before you blow-dry.

You can soothe puffy eyes with chamomile tea bags. Drop bags in boiling water, then chill on ice before pressing lightly over your eye area for 10 minutes.

For a quick complexion freshener, use an exfoliant to scrub away any dirt and dead skin cells. Choose one with soft round particles that will be gentle on your face.

If you feel a pimple coming up, dab a layer of a clay- or mud-based mask on the spot overnight. This will help to bring it to the surface sooner.

For a refreshing body exfoliator, combine coarse sea salt with your shower gel in your hands and rub the mixture on as you shower.

To give short lashes the illusion of length, use an eyelash curler before applying a black or brown mascara.

Thicken your lashline by using a black or brown pencil or liquid eyeliner along your top lashes before applying mascara.

For sensitive eyes that react to mascara, try having your lashes tinted by a beautician. The colour is really natural and can last up to six weeks.

When you are using a matt lipstick, always apply a lip balm first. Matt lipsticks can be drying, and this can make the colour appear uneven.

Want longer lasting lipstick? Follow these steps to perfect your pout. 1. Apply a small amount of lip balm to soften your lips, let it be absorbed for a few minutes – perhaps while you make up your eyes – then blot away any excess with a tissue. 2. Use a make-up sponge or your […]
