FEARNE COTTON’S MAKE-UP MUST-HAVES

-

IT’S clear from the way she recalls the unexpected arrival of a box of Charlotte Tilbury lipsticks, that Fearne Cotton loves her make-up.

“She actually sent me this box of about 20 lipsticks – it was one of the most exciting days of mine and my daughter’s lives.”

What was the TV presenter’s favourite shade from the glamorous glut?

“I’ve got one in my bag right now, what’s it called?” she says, rummaging to retrieve the lippie.

“This one is called Viva La Vergara. It’s a darker colour, I wouldn’t normally wear this colour, but I’ve been really liking it recently. And I mean, who doesn’t like Charlotte Tilbury’s eyeshadow quads? They’re amazing.”

The 38-year-old has a preference for ethical cosmetics brands. “I like Burt’s Bees (the brand is cruelty-free and doesn’t test on animals),” she notes. “I like their cream blusher – it’s like a stick – and their foundation.”

She says organic brand INIKA is another go-to, citing the powder and eyeliner as favourites.

“I’m not gonna lie. I’ve got a million things I would rather do than have a facial, or even pampering myself. Once every two weeks, I might have five minutes to put a quick face mask on whilst the kids are killing each other in the bath and screaming the house down. But other than that, I don’t have a routine.

“I just take my make-up off with micellar water, or whatever cleanser I’ve got at home, and put moisturise­r on. That’s it.”
