Eve Lom Cleanser

cleanser,Eve Lom,celebrity style Eve Lom cleanser Before Eve Lom, cleansing was something that had to be done – sometimes with a bar of soap or cleansing wipe – just before falling asleep, half-drunk and with the night\'s grime still pore-deep. Not very glam. But now that even party-hard rock-chicks like Kate Moss are confessing their love for this cleansing balm, the tides have turned. Cleansing can be cool and glam and luxurious – as you\'ll know from the first time you massage this silky smooth balm into your face and buff away the day\'s dirt. And nothing looks better on the bathroom shelf. £42 for 100ml

YSL Touch Blush

blusher,YSL YSL touch blush These playful pots, which come with their very own powder puffs, are über-glam, gold and emblazoned with the chic YSL logo. In pretty-pretty colours that add a gorgeous glow to cheeks, they\'re already bestsellers. Far too good to be reapplied only in the ladies\', make sure you whip them out whenever the urge arises and bask in the appreciative cooing (\'That\'s so cute!\') of all those around you. £23.50

Natura Bisse Diamond Cream

glamour,makeup,skincare,perfume,beauty,fashion,designer,natura_biss_diamond_creme,anti_ageing,harrods Natura Bisse diamond cream Even before swarms of celebs started using (and raving) about this cream, it had a reputation as one of the most effective anti-ageing potions on the market. From the high-tech labs in Barcelona, this luxurious cream is exported all over the world and is one of the best sellers in the Harrods White Hall. Nuff said. £150

Paul & Joe Blotters

paul,joe,blotters Paul Joe blotters Shiny noses are certainly not glamorous and neither is dealing with them (surreptitious dabs with napkins are strictly off limits when out on the town) – but Paul & Joe has changed all that. In vintage-inspired packaging with a petite mirror inside, shinies need no longer be shame-faced. £10 • The most glam fashion buys

Chanel No5 Parfum

fragrance,Chanel Chanel no5 fragrance Ever since Marilyn Monroe famously replied, \'Chanel No. 5\', to the question, \'What do you wear in bed?\' the fate of this fragrance has been sealed. Quite simply, there is no more glamorous scent in the world. From the distinctive old-Hollywood aroma to the iconic square bottle, do a Marilyn and wear nothing else. £48.50 for 50ml

Stila Roll-on Fragrance

fragrance,Stila Stila perfume Purse perfumes are a notoriously fumbly affair – from the free perfume counter samples (which always leak), to the too-large mini versions that don\'t quite make the cut when packing the clutch. Stila\'s roll-on fragrances are different – in Crème Bouquet or Jade Blossom, they are truly \'mini\', smell amazing and, well, every glam girl needs some Stila in her life. £12

Creme De La Mer Lip Balm

lip balm,make-up de la mer lip balm When only the best will do, look no further than the crème de la crème – and for lips that means Crème de la Mer Lip Balm. Being pulled out of purses all over Primrose Hill, this bounteous balm leaves a wonderful, glossy sheen on lips and a minty note on the breath. £35

Golden Alligator Compact

powder,Estee Lauder,make-up Estee Lauder compact Yes, this Estée Lauder compact is bling, but still oh-so-beautiful, this compact is the ultimate accessory. Looks aside, it is filled with Lucidity Translucent Pressed Powder, so it\'s fancy and functional. We\'ll certainly be making excuses to powder our noses, whether it\'s needed or not. £35

Lancome Juicy Tubes

lip gloss,Lancome Lancome juicy tubes It\'s official – the market is saturated with great gloss. From pen-click wands to brush-on colour, gloss is a girl\'s best friend, but no company seems able to achieve the mighty following of the Juicy Tube. Flavoured, scented and never too sticky, these cuties go a long way (I\'ve had my staple \'Fraise\' for over a year!) and they don\'t break the bank. Pick up Hot Framboise, Baby Doll and Je Vous Aime for Jagger-style pout power. £12.50 each

Dior Skinflash

dark circles,Christian Dior Dior skinflash Concealing flaws and canceling out late-night-induced puffiness may not be very glamorous, but on whipping this sleek silver Dior wand out of the bag, half the battle is already won. With a foolproof formula that lifts and conceals under-eye circles, Skinflash is without fault and lasts so long that you\'ll wonder how the dazzling Dior minds managed to fit so much into the clutch-friendly pen. Each application feels (and looks) like a stroke of genius. £19
