If you're a Strictly Come Dancing fan, you've no doubt been wondering what Tess Daly's beauty secrets are – the 49 year-old never fails to look like a glowing goddess every Saturday night, right? It seems that she's heard our prayers, since she took to Instagram on Thursday to share all her favourite makeup must-haves from Sunday night's results show – and we're all-ears.

But, the cocoa-inspired shade is obviously just as popular with other beauty buffs, since it's sold-out online currently. Sob.

Tess' go-to makeup artist is Aimee Adams, who regularly paints her face for the Strictly live shows. In October, she revealed another of Tess' favourite lippies, this time a bold red, which she wore during the Halloween show. "It’s Buxom Plump Line lipliner in Infrared.
