Whether you’re at a party or spending a night on the town, a girl never knows when she might have to pull in for a beauty pit-stop and make a few on-the-spot repairs. I’m not often this organized, but when I am this is my must-have first-aid beauty kit:

1. Dental floss

For after dinner when you need to service that great smile of yours.

2. Cotton buds

To tidy up mascara and blend creased eye-shadow.

3. A tiny bottle of your favourite perfume

Or a perfume atomizer. Don’t go mixing your scent with any freebies that might be on offer in the Ladies.

4. Oil blotters

I know none of us get sweaty – sorry, perspire. But just in case you do, these will make sure your face doesn’t resemble a big, shiny, round, sweaty thing!

5. Nail file

Just in case that pedicure doesn’t hold out.

6. Lip-gloss or Vaseline

One for the girls who, like me, don’t go for lipstick. Stops lips drying out and keeps them plump.

At the Beckhams’ party I think the main reason why people were so relaxed is because the press and TV cameras were so controlled. It just meant everyone didn’t have to worry so much about what they were or weren’t doing or saying. It’s not always that way but David and Victoria’s party was great in that respect.

One of the highlights was Graham Norton’s charity auction. There were all sorts of things to bid for, like a diamond-and-ruby encrusted Jacob watch that belonged to David, which Ashley Cole bought, and an Asprey necklace designed by Victoria. Ozzy Osbourne said he would cook dinner for ten and that was auctioned off, while other guests offered different on-the-spot lots.
