Kate Moss - What's Her Beauty Secret?
Fashion Designer, perfumer and supermodel du jour - is there anything la Moss can't do? What's more, one place Kate always reigns 'style icon' supreme is the red carpet, where north of her über-desirable wardrobe lays a trendsetting brand of rock-chic cool; all smudgy black kohl and Bardot bed hair. To help we mere mortals bag her covetable look for ourselves, GLAMOUR.com delve into the beauty bag of the world's most famous supermodel to reveal what products Kate Moss couldn't be without and why she loves them so...
Jelly Pong Pong Jelly Flush
Kate’s favourite cheek stain of all, this long-lasting, juicy, jelly bar is not only cutely packaged in a convenient push-up stick (making it ideal for glamour on the go), but it’s infused with intoxicating, yummy cocktail flavours and creates a natural, dewy finish with one effortless swipe. No wonder party girl Moss is a fan.
Kate Moss Velvet Hour
After the success of her first fragrance, Kate, la Moss introduced a more seductive, evening scent last September in the guise of Velvet Hour. “My first perfume was floral; this one still has flowers but it’s more sensual, with notes of patchouli, sandalwood and amber,” She told GLAMOUR, “Wear it any time you want to seduce someone. It stays on long after the clothes come off…” Saucy!From £21, available nationwide
Rimmel London Soft Kohl in Jet Black
As the face of Rimmel London, it’s not surprising that Kate would count some of their cult classics amongst her make-up must haves, “My favourite Rimmel products are their mascaras, their eyeliners, and lip glosses. I can’t live without black eyeliner – it’s my absolute essential." Get Kate’s look by slicking lids with this Beauty Ed’s fave black liner.£2.99, www.boots.co.uk
Crème De La Mer Moisturising Cream
The beauty icon likes to blend high-street favourites with über luxury, like this decadent, miracle moisturiser from Créme de la Mer. “Créme de la Mer sent me a pot [of moisturiser] with a diamond on it and I thought, ‘that’s ridiculous.’ But I have to say it really works and makes my skin feel fresh and glowy.” With a formula that boasts such skin-savvy ingredients as sea kelp, calcium, potassium, iron, Vitamins C, E and B12, plus oils of citrus, eucalyptus and sunflower, it’s not hard to see why Kate trusts her supermodel skin to such a super anti-ageing buy.
