New Year's Eve is a great time to look glam and go all out with your makeup, but the next morning...not so much. We think a little pre-emptive planning for your New Year's Eve clutch couldn't hurt, right? Just in case, for whatever reason, you find yourself far from your own medicine cabinet the morning after and need a quick refresh before stumbling home, here are five products that will help make your walk of shame a little less shameful. (At least as far as your face goes—those four-inch heels and torn tights might give you away anyway.) Hydrating lipstick
You're probably dehydrated (read: very, very hungover), so a lipstick like Rimmel London's Moisture Renew (which contains vitamins A and E, collagen, and SPF 18) will perk your lips back up while also giving you a much needed kick of color.
Makeup remover pads
If last-night's eye makeup has left you looking like a member of the cast of Twilight, a quick swipe with one of these should have you fresh-faced in no time.
Scented deodorant
No shower access? This sweet-smelling stick from Fresh acts as a deodorant and subtle perfume at the same time.
Facial mist
Soothe and energize your skin while also eliminating that hangover puffiness. Shu Uemura's classic facial mist comes in several scents, but we prefer Chamomile for the morning after. Think of it as a nice cup of tea—for your face.
Hair elastics
If last night's perfectly piled up-do is looking less than artful in the am, these Goody hairbands will do the trick. Also good piling on your wrists and wearing as jewelry.
