The former Spice Girl and fashion designer shares insights into the morning rituals she swears by.

Victoria Beckham plunges her face in ice-cold water to ease her hangovers.

The 50-year-old designer - who has four children with husband David Beckham - was advised to use a cold treatment to ease puffiness in the mornings, and she always carries out the process after a night out if she’s had wine to drink.

She told HELLO! Fashion Monthly magazine: “[My facialist] Melanie Grant says if I feel a bit puffy when I wake up in the morning to stick my head in a bowl of ice-cold water, and I do this often, especially after a couple of glasses of red wine the night before.”

The former Spice Girls singer kick-starts her day by drinking apple cider vinegar.

She said: “I have a few rituals that I do to support my everyday health, like a couple of tablespoons of apple cider vinegar on an empty stomach in the morning.”

“Then David and I usually have a green smoothie. We add spinach, broccoli, celery, cucumber, avocado, apple, lemon and ginger, so it’s anti-inflammatory and full of antioxidants and fibre.”

And Victoria believes in staying hydrated to facilitate glowing skin, as well as light therapy.

She said: “I do think the habits you’ve heard a million times work, like drink lots of water every day.”

“I use my LED machine most nights and have really noticed a difference in my skin, but I have to ensure I am consistent using it.”

Though Victoria’s 12-year-old daughter Harper often borrows her cosmetics, she doesn’t mind and is proud of the fact the youngster is a particular fan of her own beauty line.

Asked if Harper raids her makeup bag, she said: “Yes, and I take it as a compliment - Harper researches for hours and has a real interest in beauty products.”
