#HauteHack: The Red Lipstick ‘Cure’ For A Hangover

Don’t we all look back fondly on nights spent in the company of good friends and good wine, partying till dawn? On the flip side, when you wake up looking like a zombie the next day, it’s not exactly something you want to remember. This is why I look forward to the holiday season with mixed emotions. On one hand I can’t wait for busy weekends to attend one soirée after another, but on the other hand, I dread waking up looking like a character from The Walking Dead. So when I discovered this neat little trick that makes me look great the morning after a hard night, I couldn’t wait to share it with you.

If you wake up feeling horrible for not showing a little more restraint while uncorking that bottle of red wine this holiday season, try this. Grab your tube of red lipstick and dot a little colour exactly on the middle of your eyelids. This helps to open up your eyes and makes you look awake. Next, dab some of the same lipstick on your cheekbones and blend it towards your temples. It will warm up your complexion and inject some life in your face. Lastly, apply some red lipstick on your lips and blot with your fingers so that it looks like a stain and you’re done. Easy? Yes, yes, and yes!
