Too Faced knows how to recover from drinking too much. Their Hangover Rx Face Primer ($23.50, Amazon) works well.It "hydrates, smooths, and brightens skin for a dewy, healthy looking finish" thanks to coconut water and probiotics. Too Faced also made a coconut-water setting spray ($38.99 on Amazon) that does the same thing. Use it over makeup for extra post-drinking hydration.

Pro tip: Keep a favorite face mask in the freezer for hangover emergencies—one that clears skin and fights redness works best. Slather the cold mix on your face after drinking. This smooths puffy skin, like an ice pack reduces swelling. The cold also makes you feel human again. LUSH Cosmetics' Just To Clarify Jell Face Mask ($15.95, Amazon) works.AmazonAmazon

NothingThis brightens your face more than a highlighter dab on inner eye corners. If your skin feels rough and dull, avoid shimmery formulas. YSL's Touche Eclat ($45.90) works.AmazonThis concealer is creamy and shimmer-free.It made the look.This brightens the eyes. Apply a dab here, a dab there, and you get results.Voilà!Two hours ago, you passed out with a bottle in hand.

Line your waterline with nude liner. This is less harsh than white liner. It makes your eyes look open and bright—necessary after heavy drinking. Use Maybelline's Lasting Drama Waterproof Eye Pencil ($6.44).AmazonThis gives you a fool-proof, all-day look.What tequila?!

Dehydrated skin needs no foundation. Dry skin flakes easily, making foundation look unnatural and cakey. Your skin needs time to breathe. Choose a tinted moisturizer or a BB cream. These products moisturize skin while offering light coverage.

The "hangover face" is the look you get after hard drinking. Your skin appears dull, tired, and blah.blah. @theilluumThis claims thatSand & Sky's Brightening Pink Clay MaskThe Australian Pink Clay in Sand & Sky's Brightening Pink Clay Mask cures hangover face with its "secret ingredient." The clay pulls out impurities in 10 minutes, leaving skin feeling refreshed. These before and after pictures show it.arepretty compelling evidence and make the $49 price tag worthwhile.
