Courteney Cox's Beauty Secrets
Ever wanted to know how someone really rich and famous keeps themselves looking so darn good? From her super-shiny locks to her polished make-up perfection, Courteney Cox Arquette is all about A-list glamour. We tracked down the oh-so-gorgeous Friend to find out exactly what she keeps in that Hollywood make-up bag of hers.
Clarisonic Plus Brush System
Courteney rates this nifty device from the States which uses sonic technology to clear pores of dirt, grime and oil. Plus, the fact that it reduces the appearance of pores, improves skin tone and helps reduce wrinkles has her raving about it. “It makes my skin feel fresh, clean and healthy on a daily basis,” she told GLAMOUR.COM.

AVON SuperSHOCK Mascara
With a penchant for more natural make-up, Mrs Cox Arquette is a stickler for a good mascara – choose a good one and it’ll open the eyes, add definition and look polished without coming across all ‘cakey’. Her wand of choice is this purse-friendly mascara from Avon, because it’s “easy to use and lengthens my lashes”.

NARS Cream Eye Shadow in Mykonos
“The colour works for day or night and wears very well,” Courteney told the GLAMOUR girls, and we couldn’t agree more. NARS’ little eye shadow compacts have long been Beauty Editor favourites and there are 20 shades of this soft-blending, cream to powder formula to choose from.

Clinique Quick Eyes
Courteney’s a sophisticated kind of gal – instead of going in for neons and falsies, she prefers to keep her look muted and grown up. Cue lots of nudes, coffees and bronzes, and of course a smudge of trusty kohl. “A charcoal eye pencil with a smudge brush is easy to use and really enhances the eye,” she told us. The GLAMOUR.COM beauty team’s fave is this pencil-come-sponge from Clinique.
£10.77, available from <a href=http://www.clinique.co.uk target=_new>www.clinique.co.uk</a>
Shu Uemura 24K Gold Plated Eyelash Curler
“Your eyes are lifted when your eyelashes are curled,” says a very wise Courteney, who names Kevyn Aucoin’s Eyelash Curlers as her pick of the beauty tools. Unfortunately, you can only get your hands on them Stateside, but we think these gold-plated, award-winning ones from Shu Uemura are just as good.
£30, available from <a href=http://www.spacenk.co.uk target=_new>www.spacenk.co.uk</a>
AVON Spotlight
Believe it or not, Courteney’s signature scent isn’t some bespoke, thousand dollar perfume but this fresh, oriental new fragrance from Avon. It’s got yummy notes of citrus, mandarin, white freesia and sandalwood – plus it’s in our price range! Lucky Cour has snagged herself bottle already, but the rest of us mere mortals will have to wait until next year to pick up ours. Oh, to be on the A-list...
£16, available from <a href=http://www.avonshop.co.uk target=_new>www.avonshop.co.uk</a> from 2010.
