No hangover then! Helen Flanagan looks fresh-faced as she emerges after her birthday night out in skintight black trousers

She's just as well known for her love of partying as she is for her acting skills.
But despite the fact that Helen Flanagan was out celebrating her 23rd birthday on Tuesday night, it seems like she didn't over-do it for once.
The star was up bright and early on the big day, spotted looking fresh-faced and together as she left a salon in Liverpool following a photo shoot.

Fresh-faced: There were no signs of a hangover as Helen Flanagan wandered through Liverpool on her birthday on Wednesday, after a night out the evening before

  

She was spotted heading out the day before her birthday, laden down with birthday goodies including flowers and a balloon.
But instead of having a messy night with her pals, Helen was clearly sensible, more worried about her work commitments than having fun.
Looking far chicer than usual, the reality star sipped on an iced coffee as she left a hair salon following a shoot.

Chic: The actress looked stylish on her birthday in skintight jeans and a cream coat

Hands full: Helen could barely open the door as her hands were full of gifts and her large bouquet

She wore her trademark blonde hair in a 1950s-style knot and added a splash of deep red lipstick to her made-up face.
The actress, who doesn't always get it right when it comes to her fashion choices, looked stylish for her day out.
She paired super skintight black trousers with a white jacket and a pair of towering beige stilettos, wrapping a print scarf around her.

Big deal: Helen has mentioned on a few occasions that it is her birthday on Wednesday

Keep up: Helen was followed by Arg who seemed to be pulling her suitcases behind him

The evening before, Helen beamed as she left her hotel with arms full of gifts.
Following just behind her came her Celebrity Super Spa co-star James Argent and a gentleman who  carried a large cake with heels and a handbag on it.
James and Helen, who have grown close during filming of the show, were heading to the salon for a late night photo shoot.
Helen kept her look low-key in skinny black jeans, a smart blazer and oversized printed scarf, while she finished off her monochrome look with her favourite Chanel bag.

Her blonde hair, which she has been experimenting with recently, was pulled off her face in a half up-do, after wearing it loose earlier in the day.
TOWIE star Arg, who was dressed in the same outfit he was spotted in earlier – navy shorts, with a shirt and jumper- was lugging along a number of Louis Vuitton suitcase which presumably belonged to Helen. 
Taking to Twitter on Wednesday morning, the actress wrote: ‘Making me so happy to see everyone's lovely tweets and messages :) thankyou xxx’

Easy does it: Helen took care as she carried her birthday cake to the car

That's sweet: Helen's cake featured a pair of heels and a handbag on it

Load it up: Arg left the heavy lifting to the driver, as he stood by looking a little exhausted

It didn’t take long for the messages to start pouring in, with her new pal James taking the lead writing:  ‘Happy Birthday to my beautiful chum @helenflanagan1 and little miss @NatalyaWrightx Love ya girls! X’
Helen appeared to be in a reflective mood and thanked her manager for her help over the last year, writing: ‘Loved being 22 thankyou @vivienwilde for everything love you xxxx’
And the last year has certainly been an eventful one which has seen Helen split up with her footballer boyfriend Scott Sinclair, top FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women poll and have a nose job.

Pleased: Helen smiled broadly as she finally got into the car with her gifts

Close: James and Helen have become great friends during the filming of the new TV show

Special occasion: Helen will no doubt be treated on her special day and the rest of the week

She also found herself the victim of a terrifying raid on the house she shared with her then boyfriend – three masked men left her shaken as they broke into her house.

In happier news she has started filming a movie – Mouse and Cat, as well as the new TV show she is currently working on in Liverpool.
