tired and broke but don't want to look like that anymore!

[GoodGriefCharlieBrown]

I have taken my head out of the sand and realise I need to start making an effort. I had DS 2 years ago and most days I'm so tired I feel sick (I am on iron tablets and am eating healthily and starting to exercise at lunchtimes so am hoping that this improves).
The problem is that, in short, I look how I feel - my hair hasn't been cut for a year and I usually spend approx 2 minutes doing my make up each day in the car once I get to work.
Please can you give me some tips on how to look like I actually value myself?!

HAIR - light brown (with a bit of grey now) and almost straight -I'm having it cut this week into a choppy jaw length bob with a fringe. I have a long face and this tends to suit me as the layers flick out to add a bit of width. I'd like some advice about colour though - any recommendations on home semi-perm colours?
FACE - I could stretch to 5 mins for make up in the morning. Long face, pale with freckles (yellowish tone rather than pink), small features. What would be your top tips to make me look brighter while adding a little colour and definition to the eyes? Budget is very low so I'm not after miracle creams, more make up tips - I hate lipstick though!
Gosh it's a long post - I really do need help!

Garnier oila for hair, coupled with a good cut. Face - as well as upping veggies and fruit, I am actually finding giving up sugar is one of the best things for glowing skin and limits need for masses of make up. However a creme blusher would be good eg maybeline, bobbi brown would be good. Try ebay or get testers. well shaped defined eyebrows help.

i watched a woman do her make up on the train once. In a few minutes her face was transformed and look polished using a Chanel foundation compact, Chanel blusher and Chanel lipstick, but she did have good skin to start with. I worked out it would cost around £100 for the make up but it would be an investment that could be used
for ages.
