If you didn't get a full eight hours of shuteye last night (or any time in the last year, for that matter) at least you can look like you did. These five-second beauty tricks fake a bright-eyed, bushy-tailed look on the outside when you're feeling like the Cryptkeeper on the inside.

Get nude: Using a flesh tone or white eye pencil on your lids creates the illusion of bright eyes.

Shine on, you crazy diamond: Shiny hair is key to looking fresh. Rinse your locks with apple cider vinegar in the shower, followed by a hit of cold water to seal the cuticle.

Spoon before work: Freeze a pair of spoons for a few minutes, then place them on your eyes to tighten skin that slackens when you're sleep-deprived.

Go navy: Blue mascara and eyeliner makes the whites of your eyes brighter.

Do the dew: Using a moisturizing foundation makes your skin look fresh (matte can age you).

Wacky Beds

    If we met a guy who had this bed, we would pretty much put out on principle.

    You know what makes us sleepy? Boring art.

    You can actually buy this. But since it's probably manufactured on "Dune," S&H is going to be a bear.

    What's worse? Sitting on this art installation, "Bed of Roses," or sitting through "Bed of Roses," the 1996 "romantic" tragicomedy starring Christian Slater and Mary Stuart Masterson?

    Convenient: a French-designed Murphy Bed that folds up into the ceiling over your sofa.
    Less convenient: accidentally killing your guests with your poorly latched ceiling-bed.

    Sure, this "Cloud Bed" is great for meditating alone in your weird, Second Life-y looking room. But if you try to have sex in it, you will probably carom through a wall and into a neighboring apartment.

    What's creepier than a locking bed-cage? A bed-cage occupied by a come-hither George Lucas lookalike. (IT'S A TRAP!)

    Perfect for post-orgy naps and sleepovers with the Beastie Boys.

    So many nautical-sex jokes, so little time.

    For the analog hobo in your life.

Glow the right way: Caffeine can give you a flushed look, so skip blush and opt for a shimmery bronzer instead.

Aim high: Pull your hair back into a high, tight ponytail for a mini, non-surgical face-lift.

Use an invigorating body scrub: Exfoliating stimulates blood flow, which will make you feel perkier. Pick one in an energy-boosting citrus scent like grapefruit.
