If you were to put the words ‘miracle’ and ‘makeup’ together you’d come up with this product. A concealer that camouflages, smoothes, lifts and brightens, it gives your eyes a mini de-puffing treatment every time you apply. The added extra’s including Peptides, Vitamin C Ester and Hyaluronic acid sound more like the ingredients list of a luxe eye cream. Bags, what bags? www.johnlewis.com Photograph: PR

A simple flick of eyeliner can be a brilliant anti-ageing trick, opening your eyes and helping them to look bright and wide-awake. But dragging a hard, dry eye pencil around the ultra-thin skin of your eye will also aggravate the fine lines and wrinkles you’re trying to draw attention from. Thankfully, the new Kohl Kajal Long lasting liner uses a conditioning formula, rich in soothing Rose and Mimosa, that glides along your lash line without pulling or drying out your skin. We love the softer and more flattering shade of Violet. clarins.co.uk Photograph: PR
