Lily Donaldson Talks French Pharmacy Finds
February 29, 2012 12:40 pm

After letting the cat out of the bag via Twitter that she would in fact be making a Fall 2012 cameo, Karlie Kloss turned up on the Anthony Vaccarello runway yesterday. She’s not the only big-deal model to return to the catwalk this season, either. There was that collective, does-it-get-any-better-than-this Gisele, Shalom, and Carmen sighting at Alexander Wang in New York, and on Monday, Naomi Campbell closed Roberto Cavalli’s presentation. Another one of our all-time favorite girls who is using this season as an excuse to get back into the game is Lily Donaldson. “I’m happy to be back—it’s nice to see my friends,” she told us of her recent turns at Fendi, Pucci, Dolce, and Cavalli (Donaldson was shooting during the London and New York shows, although she did make time for Anna Sui earlier this month). While marveling at the mere sight of Donaldson backstage, we noticed that her skin is truly something to behold—even after seven days of constant wear and tear. ”I always take my makeup off,” the Brit beauty insists, listing the first step of her fairly low-key regimen that also includes Simple facial wipes to help ensure that her fair complexion stays blemish-free. ”Then there’s this Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum that’s really good—and I love Avene.” Donaldson joined Kloss at Anthony Vaccarello, her first stop in Paris, and she couldn’t be more excited to be here—if not for the excellent shows, then for the homegrown beauty bounty. “The French pharmacy is my heaven. I don’t really spend money except [there],” she divulges. ”All of my friends think I’m crazy!” When she’s in town, Donaldson stocks up on Avene’s Day Cream as well as its Cold Cream for winter. “I use [Bioderma's] Crealine, too, but everybody uses that. I also just found the most amazing lip balm. It’s on a stick and it smells kind of like almonds. It’s the best thing ever. It looks like it’s medicated but it’s not! I can’t remember the brand name but it’s short and stubby and I need to buy some more.” As soon as we wrestle the brand name away from her, we’ll be getting in on that purchasing tip, too.

^Her skin there looks heavily photoshopped but what the heck, she's gorgeous. Lily never fails to impress.
 
Lily is really on a roll.

It seems that she is getting more "hot girl/bombshell" type work now, whereas she used to mainly get what I would call "doll" type work or more artsy stuff.
 
^ I really miss that previous work you're referring to, but the fact that Lily is still working so much after such a long time (at least in terms of model years) is great, so I can't complain.

Go vote for Lily as your favourite Milan catwalker at style.com before the poll closes!

I don`t like it, her face expression is the same in every shot, otherwise she looks good.
 
She had a fantastic season in Milan, even though it was literally flooded with brunettes this time.
Hopefully the runway success will translate into the rest of the Paris runways. I hope I don't jinx this but Lanvin and Dior are today! :innocent::lol:
 
Totally adorable, so excited to see pics from the show! :woot:And I love Lily doing all different kinds of edits I think she has fabulous range but the V edit isnt my favorite, feels like its trying too hard. Really hope she keeps doing all the big shows, Chloe, Chanel, Vuitton and would be so happy if she returned to McQueen since she hasnt done a show since either ss09 or fw09 I believe:heart:
