WITH a little effort you can be an overnight sensation.

A good eight hours' beauty sleep isn't always possible so here are a few tricks of the trade to wake up fresh as a daisy.

Recapture the radiance of your skin overnight with Filorga Sleep & Peel, £54, from Marks & Spencer. The French skincare brand is inspired by aesthetic medicine and this wonder product uses hyaluronic acid with six varieties of hydroxy acids for controlled exfoliation.

If you haven't slept well, Aroma-therapy Associates Revive Morning Bath & Shower Oil, £40, can help. Its invigorating blend of pink grapefruit, rosemary and juniper berry will revitalise you, no matter how little sleep you've had.

Intensely hydrating, Elemis Hydra Nourish Night Cream, £42, reduces signs of fatigue, prevents moisture loss and leaves skin silky soft.

Rich in anti-oxidants, the key ingredients are Persian silk tree extract, sweet almond oil and hyaluronic acid, working overnight to leave you looking fresh. The scent of ylang-ylang and geranium is a lovely touch: instantly soothing and calming.

Made with 90% organic ingredients, Neal's Yard Remedies Beauty Sleep Concentrate, £31.50, replenishes and optimises the skin's natural regeneration, while enhancing a restful night's sleep. Cleverly, the active ingredients in the formulation work with the natural biorhythms of the skin and a blend of essential oils help to relax the body and mind to give a revitalising sleep.

Clary sage, cypress, orange oil, patchouli and ylang-ylang relax the mind to enhance the quality of sleep. Grape seed oil and cocoa seed butter help prevent moisture loss, which increases at night, and shea butter melts at skin temperature for a luxurious moisture boost.

Firm, hydrate and lift skin while you sleep with Orico Dream Dew Night Perfecting Cream, £32. A perfect anti-ageing treat for sensitive skins, anti-irritant aloe vera soothes and calms, while vitamin E protects skin cells from damaging free radicals and hyaluronic acid deeply hydrates giving skin a perfect radiance.

The perfect antidote to a stressful day, smooth on Skyn Iceland Oxygen Infusion Night Cream, £49. The lightly textured cream sinks into the skin, feeding it a cocktail of vitamins to boost tone, soothe inflammation and work on fine line and wrinkles. Meanwhile Arctic berries, glacial water and thyme extract stabilise stressed skin.

Cover up with a Holistic Silk Lavender Eye Mask, £46, from www.holisticsilk.com. Made with silk and lined with cotton velvet, it is filled with dried lavender.

If you need a quick fix in the morning, reach for BareMinerals Well-Rested Face & Eye Brightener, £22, to infuse radiance, highlight and illuminate tired skin.

Use on the inner corner of the eyes and under the eyes to disguise dark circles for an instant perky look. To brighten shadows and get a fresh-faced glow, lightly sweep on all the areas you want highlighted-along the brow bones, sides of nose, top of cheek-bones or around lips.

Used regularly, the fabulous mineral ingredients will, over time, work to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

And Smashbox Photo Op Under Eye Brightener, £17, has a light luminous finish that is easily applied with a touch-up brush. Packed with vitamins, wear it alone or under concealer.
