The solution: Bosso and Campo have a foolproof morning routine to make everyone think you got a full eight hours last night and didn't empty one too many glasses of Pinot Noir. Here's what to do:
Step 1: Take a warm shower or bath and use a citrus-based body wash like Bath & Body Works True Blue Spa Need a Margarita Citrus Body Scrub, $13.50 (irony not intended) and use a face scrub such as Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant, $50. It'll get your circulation going to put some glow back into your skin, Campo says.
Step 2: Drink two glasses of water and apply a moisturizing facial mask like Paula's Choice Skin Recovery Hydrating Treatment Mask, $14.95. Wear the mask while you make breakfast. Campo suggests an omelet with coffee or tea and orange juice, while Bosso swears by juice made with a handful of raw spinach, four carrots and an apple (no guarantees on the taste though). Wash your mask off and eat breakfast.
Step 3: Apply a rich moisturizer (Bosso loves Dermalogica Age Smart Super Rich Repair Moisturizer, $77) and put in some eye drops.
Step 4: Now that your skin is somewhat back in shape, it's time for makeup. Both Campo and Bosso say less is more when you're hungover -- too much and you just emphasize the fact that you didn't sleep much last night. So use a little concealer and sheer foundation (Bosso recommends Nars Sheer Glow Foundation, $42 applied with Sigma Duo Fibre F50 brush, $16). Next apply blush to put a little life in your face, curl your lashes to open your eyes and do a quick swipe of lip gloss. Those drinks will feel or at least look like a distant memory ...

Funny how famous people are used for this article. I have better things to do then spend my time wondering if someone has chipped polish on their toes.... please! Everyone knows that chipped polish is a "disaster". I feel sorry for those people in the limelight whose bad hair days and no time to get to the salon are put out there for everyone to see.

Oh yeah, because in the first slide you could totally tell that she had a \'big\' zit on her chin. NOT. If your pimple is that small no one is going to notice or care

love the idea of using the foundation at the top of the cap for a concealer.

For the last couple of years I've brought my own nail polish to the salon.

Very helpful article!! I've found Guerlain Meteorites to be VERY helpful at disguising my very ladylike hangovers (I don't have time for the routine they list in the article--I eat breakfast at work!).
