Getting gorgeous the morning after a particularly fantastic bash is no easy feat. Smashbox makeup artist Hank Hoffman feels our pain and has come up with the perfect remedy that will have you looking sexy and refreshed even as you’re reaching for the plop plop fizz fizz.

Re-hydrate. Drink tons of water, and place slices of cucumber on your eyes for 15 minutes. Next, apply your favorite eye cream and moisturizer and gently massage into skin with circular motions to get blood flowing and help the de-puff process.

Take BRUSH #13 and apply a re-vitalizing sheer lightweight foundation like BACKDROP COOLING TINT. Next, sweep a subtle, natural looking gel-based color on cheeks such as SKIN TINT in HEAT by starting at the apples of the cheeks and blending backwards. Then using BRUSH #22, add warmth and luster to the complexion by dusting a micro-shimmer powder such as SOFT LIGHTS in TINT along cheekbones.

For a radiant, fresh look, you’ll want to run, not walk to your stash of PHOTO OP UNDER EYE BRIGHTENER. This creamy peachy gold formula, which is crammed with light-reflective soft focus powders, does an amazing job of wiping out dark circles, signs of fatigue and smoothing the appearance of fine lines. Hank definitely recommends using a great blending brush to apply all around the eye, try BRUSH #4.

“You don’t want to go overboard with color for eyes,” says Hank. Simply wash a light shimmer over the lid, try EYE SHADOW in CHAMPAGNE or a cool shade like VAPOR. Next, prep lashes with a coat of LAYER LASH PRIMER, then, says Hank, “load up on the mascara,” it opens up the eye making you look more awake. A tip: Keep mascara on top lashes only; this will draw attention away from dark under eye circles. Keep lips pure and simple with a really, shiny sheer gloss. Try 35MM.
