    Sometimes it feels as though there isn't a minute to spare in your daily routine, from choosing the right outfit, to keeping in shape, getting ahead in the office and seeing friends - all while looking fabulous. So we've pulled together some top tips on looking good - in record time!

    New research suggests many of us are putting ourselves and others at risks with some of our time-saving habits – in fact almost a quarter of us risk car accidents by applying our make-up while we are driving!

    So you never have to do your make-up in your car again, Diamond has teamed up with celebrity make-up artist, Caroline Frazer. Together they are giving you all the tools you need for a quicker, more efficient make-up routine before you get behind the wheel.

    Caroline Frazer knows about applying long-lasting make-up, in a limited time – having worked with the likes of Louise Redknapp, the Spice Girls and on catwalk shows, films and magazine shoots around the world.

    Watch Caroline giving you her essential tips and tricks for a more efficient make-up routine.
