- Primer - essential for providing a smooth base for foundation, controlling shine and helping makeup stay in place all day. I use Benefit's The Porefessional.
- Foundation - for evening skin tone, covering scars and blemishes and filling open pores. I use Estée Lauder Double Wear in Ecru, applied with a Real Techniques Foundation Brush for a flawless finish.
- Concealer - to make dark circles, blemishes, scars and redness disappear (or thereabouts). I use Bobbi Brown Corrector in Light to Medium Bisque followed by Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer in Ivory under my eyes, using a brush to apply and my fingers to pat into place. Around my nose and on my chin, I use Rimmel's Hide the Blemish in Ivory.
- Powder - for oily skins like mine, setting powder is a must to stop makeup sliding down your face by 11.30am. I use Mac's Mineralize Skin Finish Powder in Medium, applied with a Real Techniques Powder Brush and topped up whenever I'm looking slightly shiny.
- Blusher - the final frontier in my quest for flawless, radiant skin is a bright cream blusher. I find cream formulas look much more fresh and natural than powders and last longer. I use Topshop's Cream Blush in Neon Rose.
- I curled my hair using a Remington Wand
