Pop these instant tips into your make-up bag this week.

  1. Apply eye shadow to your lids and lower lash lines with a damp brush, then change to a dry brush to blend into the creases.
  2. To brighten your eyes, frame them with pale cream highlighter just above the tails of your brows and over your cheekbones.
  3. To make your eyes look bigger, use black mascara on your top lashes and brown on the bottom.
  4. Tap a bit of lip balm over the centre of your eyelids to make them look fresh and dewy.
  5. If you put concealer under your eyes, don’t wipe it to the side to blend it in; rather pat it gently down with your fingers.
  6. Patchy eyebrows? Use an eyeliner to gently brush hair strokes into the gaps or ask your beautician about micro blading if you want a more permanent fix.
  7. If you sneeze after applying mascara, use cotton buds to clean up any marks.
  8. For smoky eyes, always apply the eyeliner after the eyeshadow and blend upwards; the idea is to go from dark to light.
  9. Be careful of using concealer on your lower lash lines because it will crease the minute you smile.
  10. Never over pluck your eyebrows.
