How can I stop myself looking so tired?!

[milkyman]

Hi,
Does anyone have any useful tips to cover the fact that I only get four hours of sleep a night! I have tinted mostiriser, under eye cream etc...

PS: please don't suggest more sleep......!!

Boots radiance under eye brightener/concealer. Just sort of lightens the shadows and deflects the light that falls on the under eye bags. Makes me look less tired.

A bit of subtle rosy cream blusher on the apples of the cheeks will make you look more awake too - I've got a No7 one that's basically the same as my previous Laura Mercier.

Anything like facial brushing, Clarisonic, muslin cloth routine in the morning that brightens skin and gets the blood to the surface wil help, as would any of those oxygen face creams - Nivea used to do a good one that wasn't too ££ not sure if they still do it.

Not for every day, but the brightening eye drops make you look instantly sparkly eyed and very useful on the particularly bad mornings.

Using dyelash can also be good because you have a base of dark lashes so you only need a slight slick of mascara.
