- If you go on a fabulous tropical holiday and get really badly sunburnt, apply some rich moisturiser. Do it again a couple of hours later. And again. And again. If you’re not in the act of moisturising, then you should be in the act of thinking about when you’re next going to do it. That way, you’ll avoid godawful peeling. Although picking is fun.
- If you’re going to be wearing a physically irritating piece of clothing – like a non-lined sequined shrug (as opposed to a mentally irritating piece like anything Mischa Barton may wear), apply a barrier cream underneath it. That means either something sport-astic (ha, like I can name brands) or something for preventing Nappy Rash, or 3B cream, with those creepy ads with personificated boobs, thighs and butt crack. You’ll be far less irritated by your clothing, and thank me for it in the morning.
- Beware wax creams that go underneath eyeshadow, because they may make your eyeshadow crease. Okay, so that’s not really a very well thought-out tip, but how about I add “Beware the luxury and fantastic service of the Hawthorn Lounge” to that, and we call it a day?

Thanks to the magic of editing, their attempts were cut into a reasonable ad, but it made us wonder – exactly how hard can it possibly be to remember a tiny little speil and smile at the camera? Well, as it turns out, after a couple of glasses of wine, it’s actually bloody hard. The humiliating video after the jump.
