Batiste dry shampoo
This product has saved me on so many occasions. Having a busy schedule and two young children, I often find myself with no time to spare in the mornings. A spritz of this into my hair between washes means I can get away with it for that extra day. It also adds texture if you want to wear your hair up. It costs about €3 too so it's an all-around winner for me.

Benefit They're Real mascara
I feel very naked without my mascara and this is the best one I have ever used. It does everything all the others say they will do – and never seems to dry out.

Revision Factor 50 moisturiser This moisturiser is lovely and light, and oil-free, so it is the perfect make-up base. I have been using factor 50 on my face for years now, but this moisturiser has an SPF 50 built in so it's multi-tasking and hopefully helping to keep the wrinkles somewhat at bay.

Wolford tights
These are expensive but worth every penny because they last forever and I have never had a pair ladder. No matter how often they are washed they still look like new.
