Sure, not every day requires photo shoot ready looks, but if you can have them in a few easy steps, we collectively declare: bring it on.

Cult LA beauty brand Smashbox Cosmetics has launched in Australia. Its taken 14 years but wander through a Kit Cosmetics store or online and you can now exclusively find the entire Smashbox collection.

Expect some heavy staying power attached to this makeup house. Created in 1996 by Factor brothers Dean and Davis (the great grandsons of makeup legend Max Factor), the gents have both fashioned, and learnt some of the best tricks in the trade – and they’re more than willing to share it.

Follow their six steps for perfect canvas, and check out their revolutionary best sellers including the Halo Hydrating Perfecting Powder, with a formula including gold, 48 minerals, peptide and 11 amino acids to reduce fine lines and wrinkles (in a very nifty twist top package); O-Glow Intuitive Cheek Colour (a silky gel that turns into the shade you blush naturally); and Brow Tech Trio.
 
You might be in need of a bigger make-up bag too.
