Helen Mirren Glowing Skin

With gorgeous older women fronting major beauty campaigns - Charlotte Rampling and Tilda Swinton for NARS, Andie MacDowell (sans extreme airbrush) for L'Oreal and Jessica Lange for Marc Jacobs - it's now arguably even more important to wear your age well, which means great skin, and an arsenal of quick-fixes to help you get your glow on, pronto!

Liquilift Bio-Active Face Mask
Within just forty minutes, Liquilift's {Bio Active Face Lift} physically tones, tightens and diminishes signs of fatigue - wrinkles are reduced and skin looks enviably youthful... (Sssssh! We won't tell if you don't).

Omorovicza Gold Hydralifting Mask
When you wake up looking a little lacklustre, Omorovicza's {Gold Hydralifting Mask} contains three types of hyaluronic acid, released in stages to maintain your skin's hydration levels over time. An innovative mask-cum-moisturiser, just apply to cleansed skin in the morning and tissue off any excess once you've finished the dregs of your life-giving coffee - there's no need to rinse.

Sunday Riley Good Genes
A favourite of the age-defying Helen Mirren, a thick layer of {Good Genes} applied as a pre-night out mask, will encourage circulation to leave skin looking plumped and luminous.

Studio 10 Youth Lift Glow-Plexion

Nudestix Lip & Cheek Colour Pencil
Few things scream 'youth' like a rosy flush of creamy cheek colour. Choose something as near as possible to your natural blush, and always opt for liquid or crème formulas for maximum believability. NudeStix {Lip and Cheek Pencil} comes in eight ultra-wearable shades, to complement all skin tones (and flatter all ages).
