HOLLYWOOD star Dame Joan Collins shares her beauty tips.
By ROZ LEWIS
Which beauty products do you swear by?
I love any skincare products with vitamin C and E in them. The Superlift Eye Serum from my own Timeless Beauty range really brightens up the eyes after a party, and I also swear by my Timeless Beauty hydrating lotion. It’s so important to keep my skin looking youthful.
What are your essential cosmetics for party season?
During the festive season, it would have to be the Paparazzi Compact Duo from my range. It’s perfect for quick touch-ups – it has a powder, a lipstick and a mirror all in one, and is great when you’re always on the go like I am. I also think the right base is important; a great foundation can make such a difference.

Can you share a top beauty tip?
Soak cotton pads in a bowl of icy water and place them on your eyes for five to 10 minutes before getting ready. It refreshes your face, reduces puffiness and wakes you up! Another favourite beauty tip of mine is to apply a thin layer of Vaseline over clean teeth to prevent lipstick transferring onto them!
Does your beauty routine change for January and the harsher winter months?
Yes. I use much more moisturiser as well as lots of lip balm to ensure that my skin and lips are hydrated. I also add a richer cleanser to my routine. I’m very passionate about cleansing well, and always make sure that I have removed every last scrap of make-up.
Do you wear make-up every day?
I often go without make-up and just wear skincare products. If I do wear make-up when I’m out and about, I make sure I use good quality products that will protect, treat and moisturise the skin as well as making it look gorgeous.
What is your top tip for getting a great finish for your hair?
I use L’Oréal Elnett hairspray for a finish that holds. I also recommend avoiding blow dries as they can be too aggressive on your hair.
How do you keep your skin looking good when filming?
The quality of what you eat is as important as the quality of the products you use. I swear by avocados, broccoli and salmon. They do wonders for your body, both inside and out!
How do you pamper yourself?
My favourite pamper days are spent with family, eating healthily and exercising. I enjoy taking walks or having a relaxing, no make-up day at home.
Would you ever consider cosmetic surgery?
I tried Botox once and hated it – I hate needles!
What are your beauty and health resolutions for the New Year?
Although I do eat healthily, my New Year’s resolution is to eat even more healthily as I recently found out that I have high cholesterol. Taking care of your body is just as important as looking after your appearance.
Who is your style icon?
Cate Blanchett. She is truly glamorous and has an elegance that is rare these days.
The Joan Collins Timeless Beauty range is available from 50 Marks & Spencer stores and also from joancollins beauty.com.
