Fast foundation

If you’re heading out after work, you probably just need a freshen up, rather than a whole new face of make-up, so dab L’oréal Paris Infallible Longwear Shaping Stick, £9.99, amazon.co.uk, where you need it and blend out. Foundation sticks are a party season saviour – you can pop them in your handbag for a quick touch-up, and you don’t need a brush or a sponge to apply them.
