If your alarm clock going off is tantamount to torture, and it feels as though you're applying your make-up on autopilot and sleep-walking to work, then you're clearly suffering from a case of PNYSD: Post-New Year Slump Disorder.

Characterised by drooping eyes, sallow skin and a complete inability to shake off the January blues, this sleepy syndrome is particularly prevalent first thing in the morning.

Help is at hand, however - with the right perky products, you can give your skin, hair, body and senses the boost they need to combat (or at the very least, disguise) your lethargic looks.

Time for your rejuvenation prescription...

EYE-OPENERS

Often a barometer for how well you've slept, eyes not only reveal tiredness to the outside world, they're the place you feel it most, so it makes sense to focus your revitalising efforts on your peepers.

A cooling make-up remover, like Ioma's gel formula, instantly freshens the eye area, and if you use it first thing to remove any lingering dregs of last night's mascara, it does double duty as a clean up operation and wake-up call.

Follow with an intensive eye cream that goes to work on puffiness and dark circles. Aveda's new Botanical Kinetics range uses soothing liquorice root extract and Brazilian Cupuacu Butter to deeply hydrate.

The final step to complete your eye-opening transformation is an eyebrow pencil, but not just for its brow-defining properties. Pur Minerals Wake Up Brow features the genius addition of a pale pink eye pencil at the other end, to be applied on the waterline, counteracting redness and making you look bright-eyed, even when you feel anything but.

BODY BOOSTERS

If you're looking for a foolproof way to reset your body clock, an ice cold pre-dawn shower will more than do the trick.

Not keen? Don't blame you.

Just as effective, but less violently bracing, a zesty shower gel will awaken your senses with the power of scent, rather than a sudden drop in body temperature.

From the makers of L'Occitane, Le Couvent de Minimes is a range of similarly Francophilic bath and body products. The delightfully named Botanical Cologne Of The Morning and awakening Shower Dew duo are scented with basil, orange and lemon - the combination's deliciously refreshing and comforting at the same time.

Elemis Revitalise Me Shower Gel follows a fruit and herb-infused recipe, too, packed with thyme, lime and mandarin essential oils.

SKIN SAVIOURS

Unless you're jetting off to the slopes or on a mid-winter escape somewhere south of the equator, you're currently smack bang in the middle of the worst time of the year complexion-wise, when our sun-deprived skin is crying out for help.

Confront this winter war with a pair of rejuvenating heroes.

A once-a-week deep cleanse mask is essential, to promote cell regeneration under the surface. Trilogy Mineral Radiance Mask is a traditional clay formula, featuring astringent extracts and moisturising oils.

Before you moisturise, massage in a few drops of energising serum. Lulu's Time Bomb Complexion Cocktail includes vitamin B12 to help improve circulation, while Bryt Boost Serum is a super-hydrating oil that's best left to soak in overnight - think of it like a phone charger for your face.

HAIR RAISERS

It's not just your complexion that can look and feel ravaged by tiredness; lacklustre locks are par for the course too.

So when you're doing your weekly face mask, give your tresses some TLC as well.

Heavy-duty in every sense of the word, Nanokeratin System Re-Vitalise Mask comes in a hefty tub and contains pure keratin and castor oil to provide ultra-conditioning effects. Three minutes is all you need to feel the benefits.

Phyto's Phytopolleine Botanical Scalp Stimulant goes to the root cause of limp hair, delivering refreshing essential oils where they're needed most. Apply bit by bit across your scalp, massage in and leave for 20 minutes before shampooing out. If split-ends are a problem, coat the ends of your hair in a moisturising mask at the same time.

TRIED AND TESTED

:: Victoria Beckham says she's a fan, but what's an oxygen facial all about? In search of skin radiance, Katie Wright finds out

"After first cleansing my skin, the therapist sets to work with the 'microneedling', which involves applying a roller covered in lots of minuscule needles over my face, to allow a rich serum to penetrate deeply and stimulate collagen growth, while the gadget simultaneously blasts 'cryo oxygen' to cool my skin. Sounds a bit terrifying, doesn't it? But it's not that bad. While I can't say the needling is pleasurable, it doesn't hurt.

"Next, a thinner nozzle is used to provide another blast of oxygen, followed by a soothing mask, then I'm left to snooze for 10 minutes. After the bracing treatment, I feel surprisingly relaxed and cosy under a warm blanket. The mask is peeled off in one go, and finally a serum and SPF are smoothed on.

"There isn't a huge difference immediately, because the collagen-boosting effects start later, but my face has never felt fresher, and my complexion looked so clear, I didn't bother reapplying foundation when I headed back to the office. A fab New Year pick-me-up."

BEAUTY BULLETIN

:: WRINKLE PICKERS

Looking 10 years younger is often touted as the ideal to aim, but new research refutes the idea that women really want to turn back the clock. In an experiment by the makers of Juvederm facial fillers, when women in their 50s were shown a range of photos of their face retouched to different degrees and asked to pick their favourite, all chose the image that kept most of their lines. Encouragingly, when members of the public were shown the same images, nearly two thirds agreed the women looked better with their wrinkles intact.

:: DYE CASTING

Did you know that Christina Hendricks, aka Joan in Mad Men, isn't a natural red head? Not only that, she dyes her hair herself, which is why she's been cast as Brand Ambassador for Nice'n Easy hair colour. "People never believe that I do my hair colour myself at home," says the naturally dark blonde actress. "I always reply and say, 'I honestly do!'"

RECESSIONISTA ALERT

New from the recently rebranded BD Trade Secrets range comes the Limited Edition Love Lips Love Cheeks Palette, £8.99 (available February; www.tesco.com). This cute quartet comprises lip gloss, highlighter and a couple of cream colours, but don't let the labels limit you - apply as you like across lips, cheeks and eyes. It's a multitasking, money-saving marvel.
