Apreciation Q&A about Beauty and Fashion

Makeup that's always in your bag
I carry a selection of lip liners and lipsticks with me at all times, in case I unexpectedly head somewhere smart. I find a plum lip can dress up even the most casual attire. Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Lipstick in Fig is my day-to-day color.
Skin care regimen
I'm obsessed with Kiehl's Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate, a vitamin C serum that tingles a bit when you first put it on but brightens and protects skin beautifully. Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant is a gentle scrub that really keeps my skin clear. And I smooth on The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 every day in an attempt to stay well moisturized.
Favorite designer
If I lived in Paris and worked in fashion, I like to think I'd dress predominantly in Alexander McQueen and Erdem. In reality, though, my go-to is Zara.
Hair MVPs
My hair took a beating after coloring it for a role, so I tried Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3, and it's really helped strengthen my hair. For an evening out, I mist my hair with Oribe Thick Dry Finishing Spray.
Workout routine
When I'm at home in the U.K., I like to run cross-country and do a lot of bodyweight training. When I'm visiting a city, I'll find somewhere to do Bikram yoga. And if I have access to a gym, well, then it's a mix of everything.
Everyday bag
On the daily, it’s a backpack. If I’m feeling fruity, then it’s something little and brightly colored.
Biggest indulgence
My biggest indulgence at the moment is definitely travel. I'd rather experience someplace new over buying a new car or handbag any day!
Apreciation Q&A about Books
Credits: The Spectator | 2012
What are you reading at the moment?
I am reading The Return of The Native by Thomas Hardy (in an attempt to make up for not doing English A-Level) and The Invisible Woman by Claire Tomalin: as I am playing Maria Ternan in the screen adaptation of the tale of Dickens’ love for eighteen year old actress Nelly Ternan.
As a child, what did you read under the covers?
I was obsessed with the Adventures Series by Willard Price — I think Amazon Adventure and South Sea Adventure were my faves. I loved learning about the animals that the brothers Hal (total dreamboat) and Roger Hunt captured for their father’s zoo. Amazing.
Has a book ever made you cry, and if so which one?
Lots of books have made me cry but the one that springs to mind as I have recently re-read it is A Tale Of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. Unrequited secret love + the horror of the French Revolution = me snivelling loudly on a train to Sussex like a prat.
Which party from literature would you most like to have attended?
I think I would go down a treat at one of Jay Gatsby’s shindigs.
Which literary character do you dream of playing?
I would love to play Isabel Archer in The Portrait of a Lady. If only Nicole Kidman hadn’t got there first I mighta stood a chance.
You are about to be put into solitary confinement for a year and allowed to take three books. What would you choose?
I would take three copies of the same book; one in English, one in Italian and one in swedish. I might force myself to learn summat.
Which literary character would you most like to sleep with?
When I was 11 I wanted to marry Hal Hunt from the Adventure books. I think he’d be old enough now?
If you could write a self-help book, what would you call it?
‘The Worthy Whinge: How to write a stonking letter of complaint’
Michael Gove has asked you to rewrite the GCSE English Literature syllabus. Which book, which play, and which poem would you make compulsory reading?
The compulsory play would be Jerusalem by Jez Butterworth because its brilliant and modern. Compulsory book — anything by Ian McEwan. And the poem would be If by Rudyard Kipling.
What would you title your memoirs?
Unfortunately I have a terrible memory and I am unlikely to be able to remember any vaguely entertaining anecdotes by the time I am of an age grand enough to have had enough material. So the chances of me writing any sort of memoirs are slim to none. Or I could call it ‘Delusions of Grandeur; Things She Thought She Might Have Done.’
