Dame Helen reveals her eyebrows are tattooed on

OSCAR-winning actress Dame Helen Mirren already has a tattoo on her left hand, which she describes as the result of a drunken act of rebellion in her youth.

Now, 50 years on, the star of The Queen has returned to the inking parlour one more.

‘I’ll tell you what I had done recently, which I love — I got my eyebrows tattooed,’ says Dame Helen, 72. ‘I was fed up of my brows barely being there and when one of my girlfriends got it done, I thought that they looked great.

‘They’re very lightly and delicately done — but it means that when I get up in the morning and I have no make-up on, at least I have eyebrows. It’s made a huge difference.’
