She outlines the top products that she uses to “take 10 years off your face”, leading with the one that creates a “glowy” base.

Before applying your cosmetics, it is just as crucial to look after the skin underneath, creating a hydrated foundation to build your look.

Explaining how she always reaches for a cream full of hyaluronic acid, Brianna declared: “I cannot live without this!”

The 46-year-old added: “It creates a glow and a nice film on the skin which fills in fine lines, pores and wrinkles.

“So, when you put your foundation on it, your foundation goes into your skin super smooth and doesn't fall into the wrinkles or the creases.”

She uses it almost like a face primer to keep foundation lasting throughout the day and avoids the cakey look that lots of foundations create.

At the moment, the hyaluronic acid hype is dominating skin care regimens while scientists continue to unveil its numerous benefits through studies and trials.

The medical experts at Cleveland Clinic have given the acid their seal of approval, saying: “Long-term use of hyaluronic acid serum on your skin or in a supplement taken by mouth can improve overall skin health.

“It’s also great for helping improve overall skin flexibility and elasticity (meaning it makes your skin more stretchy and soft).”
