Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!

Renowned make-up artist Jemma Kidd has launched her first, rather impressive, professional make-up range - and it has us jumping for joy. With shimmering long wear metallic eye shadows, anti-aging concealers and oh so much more, this is one new range to keep your eyes peeled for. We love the I-Perfector Prep & Brighten Duo, which launches this month. It's an anti-aging concealer cream in the form of a pen. Yes, simply sweep it along your lower lashes and lightly under your eyes to brighten a tired eye in seconds. Does the job, looks after the skin and is super easy to apply - no messy fingers here please!

I-Prefector Prep & Brighten Duo, £18 and I-Rescue Bio-Complex Cover £28 launch November, spacenk.co.uk
