6 tips that will make you look great without any effort

Getting gorgeous doesn't have to take hours. We know it can, but really, who has time to pile on makeup when there’s coffee to drink, outfits to put together and things to get done? Save time and look fab in a snap with these tricks.

•  Drink more water. Keep a reusable bottle at your desk so you remember to sip regularly, and trade one of your daily coffees or sodas for herbal tea. Water is your skin's best friend, because it supplies it with oxygen, and gives your face a glamorous glow. Remember, if you feel thirsty, you’re likely already dehydrated. 
• Use a highlighting product to the inner corners of your eyes, cheekbones and brow bone can do wonders to give you a quick beauty boost. The slight shimmer has an almost-optical illusion effect that helps hide the stress of the day.                                                                                                                                
• Refresh your makeup or just wake up your skin in an instant with a mist of spray toner. They come in a wide variety of formulations, hydrating, antioxidant, youth formula .etc. A little spritz can go a long way in breathing new life into your face and make up.
• I know, it’s easier said than done, but if you feel tired you likely look tired, too. Aim to get to bed 30 minutes earlier each night, and avoid doing anything stressful before you hit the sack. That means no video games, horror movies, or fights with the partner, or the kids (if you have any). They don’t call it beauty sleep for nothing — it’s restorative to your whole body and being well-rested means a much healthier complexion.
• I remember how much i hated it when my mum was telling me not to slouch, and how she made me walk around with books on my head... but she was dead right. By standing up straight you’ll not only look more confident, your clothes will hang better and your circulation will be improved, meaning an all-over body and face improvement. Don't worry even if you don't have the best posture there are plenty of exercises that will improve it, if you're still young, all you need is to force yourself to stand up straight, and after a few days it will become natural.
• Mascara is a girl’s best friend when it comes to looking better in a snap. Seriously, if every other product was taken from our makeup bag, we’d survive with only mascara to enhance our look. Curl your lashes to further lengthen them and do a double coat of mascara to really make your eyes pop.
