I can’t live without . . .

Clinique, Even Better Foundation a new range with SPF 15 which evens and corrects. It's crucial to wear SPF on your skin, even in winter, as UV rays can damage skin all year round. This cream sits better on my skin than a lot of the other ones.

L'Oréal, Kérastase Elixir K Ultime a scented oil I find it great to put on my mop after a shower . . . takes the frizz out

Sally Hansen, Airbrush Legs what did we do before Sally Hansen? A brilliant leg make-up which hides all blemishes, including varicose veins – one or two I developed since I had my twins.

Rimmel, Scandal Eyes flex Mascara this is a brilliant mascara, as good as any of the major brands and I find it gives great volume.

MAC, Liquid Eye Liner this is the only one I can apply quickly, and never have to re-do.

Chanel Coco Mademoiselle this is my favourite fragrance at the moment. It's understated enough for everyday wear, but has "an edge" for evening wear.
