No Beauty Sleep? Face It with Makeup

You’ve got no glow,
and the go-to matte makeups make you look even more tired. A
moisturizer flecked with light-reflecting particles will inspire your
barista to ask what your skin regimen is. Try
Dove Energy Glow Brightening Moisturizer with SPF 15
($8.99, drugstore.com). Lower maintenance? Take your current base and mix in a highlighting fluid like
Lorac Oil-Free Luminizer for the same shimmery effect
($28, sephora.com). Then, dust yourself with
Prescriptives Magic Liquid Powder, which evens out skin tone
($35, prescriptives.com).
Bloodshot and Bags
You
fell asleep with your contacts in. Or you didn’t sleep and your
bloodshot eyes are a dead giveaway. Don’t squirt half the contact
solution into your eyes (it won’t work). For irritation, natural tear
solutions like Visine are best. A moisturizing eye cream like
Olay Regenerist Eye Lifting Serum and an under-eye concealer will hide your dark circles
($18.99, drugstore.com). If you need bigger guns, line the lower lid with a white pencil like
Benefit Eye Bright Pencil
($18, benefitcosmetics.com). Then curl your lashes and coat them with
Philosophy Big Gorgeous Eyes Mascara ($22, philosophy.com). Better for batting, my dear.
