While wedding day make-up should be natural, ultra-radiant and flawless-looking skin is something every bride wants to achieve - especially when it comes to those post-ceremony photographs. Relatively easy if you've just hit your twenties, but maturing skin, particularly during the cold winter months, needs a touch more attention. Enter Estēe Lauder's new Resilience Lift Extreme Makeup. Formulated for maturing skin, the high-tech foundation is loaded with hyaluronic acid and a revolutionary, tri-blend Extreme Lift Complex to instantly relive dry skin, boost collagen production and deliver a continuous surge of moisture - so skin is exceptionally hydrated and, more importantly, stays perfectly luminous throughout the day.

And now, with the welcome addition of an Eye Cream and Neck Cream, there's no excuse not to get in on the secret. From £47, available at Space NK, Harvey Nichols and Harrods
