If you're leaving in 10 minutes and not feeling party-ready, try these quick fixes for common beauty emergencies. From bad hair days to chapped lips, these products can save the day.
For greasy hair, Batiste Dry Shampoo (£2.09) is a celebrity favourite, with Holly Willoughby among its fans. The new Diva version smells of sweet vanilla and jasmine. For static or dullness, Lee Stafford Bling Wake-up Call 24-seven Hair Refresher (£5.37) can transform flyaway hair in a few spritzes.
To revive lacklustre skin, Susan Molyneux Lip and Eye Active Lift (£29.95) works as a 10-minute intensive treatment, giving a post-salon facial effect. For a quick radiance boost, Caudalie Beauty Elixir (£31) is a spray-on favourite of supermodel Helena Christensen and was popular backstage at Fashion Week.
For chapped lips, the Soap & Glory Mighty Mouth Gorgeous Lips Kit (£9.99) includes a fast-working exfoliator and balm. Kelly Brook is a fan. For pasty legs, SunLabs Sparkle Body Spray (£15.50) adds fine glitter without looking overdone, while Piz Buin Self Tanning Shimmering Tinted Lotion (£12.99) gives instant colour that develops into a deeper tan.
To fix gnarly feet, file them dry before a bath, straighten toenails with a glass file, and finish with Margaret Dabbs Shimmer Glamorous Foot Treatment (£20) to revive an old pedicure. SpaceNK Party Feet Foot Cream (£15) is another option.
For damage limitation after a night out, try Superdrug Optimum Cooling Eye Roll-on (£4.99) for puffy eyes, Origins Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask (£20) to rehydrate skin, or Bioenerjii Germanium Cream (£13.75) to stimulate circulation.
