Get it done in one hour

Manipulate light like a pro. Use brightening skin care and luminising makeup, topped off by a shimmering body oil to help your skin glow in all the right places.

GIVE YOUR FACE A MINI MASSAGE

The best quick fix is to take a few extra minutes before applying your makeup to massage in a super serum. It will help work in the product, get the blood flowing and also plump things up to leave you with a brighter, more even and balanced tone. Try 1 Swipe Bright Super Oil, $129, Dr. Naomi. 2 Luminosity Revive and Refine Serum, $145, Bespoke.

CONCEAL AND PERFECT

Don’t let imperfections or dark circles detract from your glow. This concealer erases, perfects, hydrates, brightens and refreshes. Try 3 Colorstay Skinawaken 5-in-1 Concealer, $26.95, Revlon.

HIGHLIGHT STRATEGICALLY

Use a highlighter to bounce off key features. Apply it along the sides of your face, down the centre of your nose (not the tip) and on your cupid’s bow. Complement with a shimmery blush along your cheekbones and a matt version on the apples of your cheeks. Try 4 Shimmering Seas Colour Collection Cream Blush, $15.95, Natio. 5 Touch Of Glow Highlight Stick, $24.95, Nude By Nature. 6 Maxi Blush, $15.95, Rimmel London.
