The ravishing Paris-born actress lets Olivia Falcon in on some of her beauty secrets
My War Paint
Moisturiser: Skin Caviar Cream by la Prairie.
Foundation: Shiseido Lifting Foundation SPF16.
Mascara: Diorshow waterproof mascara.
Blush: Diorblush in Strawberry Sorbet.
Lipbalm: By Terry’s Rose Balm.
Nail colour: Natural pink or crazy dark blue, depending on my mood.
My Entourage
Hairdresser: Session stylist Wakana Yoshihara.
Facialist: I do it myself.
Dermatologist: I don’t have one.
Nutritionist: The St John chef keeps me well fed.
Trainer: Griffin, my dog, who takes me on long walks first thing.
Spiritual guru: a few people, who would be embarrassed if I mentioned them.
My Inside Secrets
Diet: I’m bad at denying myself favourite foods and I hate lettuce. But my daily regime is lots of water for the skin, a glass of red wine for the heart and exercise for the figure.
Food vice: Cheese and wines by Penfolds.
Dress size: Eight
Vitamins: Green Magma, by GreenFoods.
Transformation time: About 20 minutes.
My State of Mind
Mood: Hungry.
Scent: Dior’s Midnight Poison.
Secret crush: It’s a secret!
Hangover cure: A swim in my favourite pool – at One Aldwych [a hotel in London] – followed by macaroni cheese.
Bedside reading: Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami.
Favourite way to relax: A bath, with Santa Maria Novella’s melograno bath salts.
My mantra
To grow old disgracefully like Jackie O’s aunt in the movie Grey Gardens, eating foie gras with a shoehorn in a mansion.
The one beauty treatment I’ve had that I have seen visible results with is Dior’s L’Or de Vie.
My parents taught me not to know the price of anything but to remember the value of everything.
If I were on the run from the mob and had to change my look completely, I’d wear a wig and fly to Buenos Aires.
The most high maintenance part of my body is my hair.
A big beauty con is that broccoli is good for you – I hate it but eat it because I was told it was good for the skin.
When I look in the mirror I see other members of my family.
I wish I’d known at 21: how to walk in heels, that I’d like oysters, that I should learn to drive then – I was fearless.
My secret for looking good is… having no idea that I do.
