Have you ever concocted your own cream, perfume, and/or eyeshadow?
I've
definitely tried to play mixologist with nail polishes and lipsticks,
always with dreadful results. And though I've had perfumes designed
specifically for me, I haven't loved one... yet.
You've done so many beauty private icons. Who's your favorite and why?
I've
said it many times before, but the answer always remains the same:
David Bowie. When it comes to beauty, and everything else for that
matter, he was and is a true original.
Which trend would you love to see make a comeback? Which would you like to see go away and never come back?
I am more than ready to see the black nail trend die, and I would wholeheartedly herald the return of the spit curl!
Buy the Nylon Book of Beauty from Amazon for £8.74.
