make-up bag,Guerlain,celebrity,make-up Guerlain l\'or radiance concentrate

In keeping with the dreamiest and most decadent beauty buys, this precious-metal-flecked gel not only gives skin the sort of A-list glow that gets the flashbulbs popping, but also leaves skin feeling plump, hydrated and silky-smooth. Given that it\'s far more affordable than a block of bullion, this is one treat we\'re happy to add to our beauty bags.

Jemma Kidd Professional Team Collection

Jemma Kidd,make-up bag,celebrity,make-up Jemma Kidd collection

We have a new secret (that we\'re sharing with some of Jemma\'s top celeb clients, including Naomi Campbell, Sienna Miller & Jade Jagger) - Jemma Kidd\'s brand new Professional Team collection. From the amazing all-in-one, skin-revving Rescue Bio-Complex Veil, £32, to the brilliant I-Rescue Bio-Complex Cover, £28, which covers even the most malignant of dark circles (great for hard-partying stars who need to look great the following day) while reducing fine lines with peptides and ceramides, we refuse to leave home without at least a bit of her kit.

The real award-winner? Try the I-Perfector Prep & Brighten Duo, £18 - a skin-tinted, anti-redness crème liner & shadow, which widens, brightens and evens out peepers. Wink wink.

John Galliano Solid Perfume Charm Bracelet

From the king of couture (and designer of the most memorable red-carpet confections), comes a unique accoutrement - a lavish and luxe charm bracelet, featuring a cameo, that opens to reveal a solid perfume. As with all awards-ceremony-worthy outings, attention to detail is key - and this gorgeous trinket twinkles with a host of other charms - including a book, rose, chandelier, dagger and perfume bottle. In keeping with his eponymous scent, the balm hums with floral, amber and woody notes - the perfect partner to a fairytale night.

YSL Palette D\'Artiste

make-up bag,YSL,celebrity,make-up YSL Palette d artiste

Part of YSL\'s Spring PURE COLOUR collection, this is quite possibly the prettiest new palette on the block. The candy-stripe colours - bronze, pinks and orange - illuminate every skin tone and with Ampli Light + pigments embedded within the powder to reflect light, this is a red carpet prerequisite. Swipe individual shades over cheeks and eyes for a spot of custom colour, or sweep a large powder brush across all four to achieve a flirty flush.

No7 Petals Collection

make-up bag,celebrity,make-up No7 petals collection

Having worked with Cameron Diaz, Cate Blanchett, Demi Moore and Heidi Klum, we think it\'s fair to say that make-up supremo Lisa Eldridge, deserves a spot in this particular beauty bag. So, it\'s a good thing that her latest line for No7 - the Petals Collection - is just the ticket for women who need to look a million dollars, on a significantly smaller budget. Our favourite is the Petal Lip Tint, £8.50 - in bright coral and raspberry, in a creamy texture that can be dabbed on as a tinted balm, or built up for a stronger pop of colour.

La Prairie Skin Caviar Crystalline Concentre

Seeing as we\'re serving up the most indulgent A-list treats for this beauty special, we couldn\'t turn our backs on this decadent serum. The ingredients list reads like the contents of a jewellery shop with diamond and quartz crystals...so if you have the cash to splash, you might also be interested in the nutrient rich, caviar filled and peptide-rich formula which firms the skin, plumps fine lines and illuminates your complexion. As far as designer labels (and ingredients lists) go, this one takes some beating.

 

La Prairie Skin Caviar Crystalline Concentre, £230, nationwide from 1 March 2009

MAC Cremeteam Collection

make-up bag,MAC,celebrity,make-up MAC Cremeteam collection

Make-up is always pristine on awards night and this year we\'ve seen sexy sultry lips making a big comeback. The Golden Globes saw celebs favouring an understated nude lip and those that broke the rules with the stand out in a crowd red.  Thankfully MAC\'s new Creamteam range allows you to do just that with its highly moisturising lipsticks, super shiny glosses and defining lip pencils.  Plus they are all in this season\'s hottest colours (think pastel lilacs and neon pinks), MAC we salute you...oh and so do many-a-celeb!

Guerlain Orchidée Imperiale Cure

make-up bag,Guerlain,celebrity,make-up Guerlain orcghidee imperiale cure

If the Credit Crunch has already struck in your household, look away now. We couldn\'t resist squeezing this new addition into our A-LIST BEAUTY BAG - well, with a promise to renew & revive the skin, we knew that Tinseltown\'s finest would be clamouring to get their hands on this fresh formula. Packed with Guerlain\'s exclusive Orchidée Imperiale Molecular Extract, the four vials (one per week) gradually increase in strength, and are designed to be used for four successive weeks. Pricey for a month\'s supply - but apparently, a one-off is enough to re-educate almost 100% of new skin cells into increased cell turnover - resulting in smoother, firmer and denser skin in the long-run. Here\'s hoping.
