LFW Essentials Kit

London Fashion Week's definition of fun? Running in heels, minimal sleep and multiple hand cramps from furiously writing down Val Garland's quotes as she describes her inspiration behind the new green mascara.

This season I'll be running along backstage to bring you ladies some snaps from the inside action, the makeup artists favourite products and what to expect come Autumn. 

This Works In Transit No Traces (out April!), Chanel Holiday £18, Clinique Chubby Stick Intense in Grandest Grape post here, Mac Current Lip Pencil post here, Skyn Iceland Hydra Cool Firming Eye Gels post here, Mac Well Dressed Blush, £11.

Notebook? Check! Pen? Check! Nails? Chanel Holiday - a bright orange red with a glossy finish. My thought being if nails and lips are bold and colourful, the rest can do itself. Except blush, which must be pink as it's the best colour for brightening and awakening says Terry De Gunzberg. 

Skincare routine will no doubt go down the drain, but This Works No Transit No Traces micellar water infused wipes will be giving my makeup a quick sweep over before passing out. Mornings will be a quick dollup of Perricone MD Face Finishing Moisturiser to hydrate and soothe - plus points for having a weightless gel texture. In the unlikely event that there's 10 minutes to spare Skyn Iceland's Hydro Cool Firming Eye Gels applied under my eyes to soothe and de-puff work like a treat and a fantastic morning pick-me-up.

One item that wont be leaving my feet -  Isabel Marant Bekket High-Top Suede Sneakers. Comfortable (I'm talking all day standing up perfection) plus a concealed wedge heel you can't even feel. Can't run in heels? Try Isabelle Marant. The only other item that won't be plain and black are accessories - big rings and lots of them. 

Ipad, hand sanitizer and camera will be coming along for the journey too and we are currently T-6 days till it all begins...
