Who better to dole out beauty and life advice to live by? This is what Joan had to say...
On where she food shops: ‘Marks & Spencer’
Her ultimate beauty tip: ‘Stay out of the sun and don’t put soap on your face.’
On the time it takes to do her make-up: ’25 minutes. I don’t do my eyes every day.’
On how to travel in style: ‘Never wear jeans.’
On her beauty idols, past and present: ‘Ava Gardner, Vivien Leigh, Elizabeth Taylor, Carmen Dell'Orefice and Dita Von Teese because they all wear a lot of make-up.’
On her trademark smoky eye: ‘It gets smokier and smokier as the day goes on.’
On fashion: ‘High fashion is rather scary at the moment. I mean, the Met Ball. Was that fashion? It’s fancy dress. But I like the high street. M&S and H&M.’
On her make-up no no’s: ‘Blue eyeshadow, green eyeshadow, lip liner that's darker than your lipstick, contouring, over-plucked eyebrows.’
What she said to her goddaughter Cara Delevingne when she asked advice about getting into acting: ‘Don’t.’
On actresses today: ‘They can’t do their own make-up or style themselves. Individuality has dissipated.’
Her favourite tipple: ‘Lychee martinis. I had two last night.’
On Brexit: ‘I’m all for it. We need our own rules.’
