KEY POINTS:
If you want to look runway-ready, check out these recommendations about products that stand up to scrutiny under the spotlight.
1 Wella System Professional Platinum Gloss $32
This smoothing serum gives a super shine: you only need a few drops. A favourite of Lucy Marr, who is styling 10 shows at Fashion Week - she says it's ideal for hyper-luminescent runway hair and can be applied to wet or dry hair.
2 OPI Correct & Clean Up, Refillable Corrector Pez $25
This tidy-up pen lifts any nail polish a rushed manicure may have left on your cuticles or the skin around your fingers. Used in salons for a perfect finish and handy to have at home. From salons stocking O.P.I, Life pharmacies, Farmers and Smith & Caughey.
3 Yves St Laurent Top Secrets Flash Radiance Skincare Brush $95
Just the thing for tired models. Brush on radiance for the skin in a portable applicator designed like a giant version of YSL's Touche Eclat. Peps up the complexion before makeup.
4 Sebastian Professional Shaper Brushable Styling Hair Spray.
$28 (purse size $14)
Lucy Marr says this is the best hairspray ever. "Perfect for holding your style in place without any sticky residues and with a natural finish." And as a further recommendation, it's America's biggest-selling spray.
5 Revlon Beyond Natural Smoothing Primer $30
Makeup primers have been a show secret for years and have recently emerged into top-end ranges. Now Revlon takes the trend mainstream with this affordable version. Not just for makeup junkies, a primer gives smoother skin because its silicon-based formula coats tiny lines and fills in pores to provide a better base for makeup to glide on rather than sink in. Worth the extra effort. From Revlon stockists.
6 Sebastian Evocative Disobedient Messy Matte Paste $37
This is a dry styling paste that Marr says is great for creating a dishevelled texture, without overloading hair with product. Agyness Deyn, here you come.
