Emma Watson shares some beauty tips to looking flawless on the red carpet

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! A lifetime of being on the set of films and having her make-up applied by some of the best make-up artists in the business has taught Emma Watson loads of secrets to always looking her best. And now, thanks to a recent article in the Telegraph, she shares some of those secrets with the fans. Here are a couple of Emma’s tips:

Start with a clean canvas
Good skincare is the best starting point for makeup, and if you take care of your skin you can wear less foundation. I spend a lot more time on my skincare regime than on anything else. I’m scrupulous about taking off my makeup before I go to bed – I use a hot flannel or a soft piece of linen to remove my Gentle Cream Cleanser by MV Organic – and moisturising properly. As Ron would say, “Hermione has nice skin – as far as skin goes!”

The power of lippy
I have always really loved makeup. I grew up around makeup artists – they were my surrogate mothers – so I have learned a lot from them, such as the impact that lipstick can have. However, I usually save it for evenings. For daytime I like to wear a pink-tinted lip balm such as Figs & Rouge’s Lemon Berry.

To show how flawless Emma Watson looks on the red carpet, she attended the Gravity premiere in New York City last night and looked absolutely stunning wearing a white on cream J. Mendel dress with a metallic pair of shoes, a small clutch, and perfect makeup topped off with a soft plum-colored lipstick. You can see a full size image of her red carpet ensemble right here.
