She is well known for her outrageous outfits, fake tan and heavy make-up, but Katie Price has said that she doesn’t wear make-up, unless she is making a public appearance.

In fact, she admits to being “disinterested” in beautifying herself.

In a recent interview, the former glamour model says: “The older you get, the less interested in make-up you are. A smokey eye is ageing and with four kids, the last thing on my mind is make-up. In fact, I don’t wear any. Vaseline is the only thing in my make-up bag to keep my lips moisturised.”

Sounds like she was having a bit of a crazy moment, we’re baffled!

At least she admits to having some treatments done: “I have my eyelashes and eyebrows tinted every week. I think good brows are really important and I love having a matching manicure and pedicure. I’ve had the same girl doing it for six years.”

However she is honest when it comes to her personal style, saying: ‘Well, let’s just say I’ve never been voted best-dressed and I’m always in the worst dressed category but I don’t care. “

We have to give her some brownie points for that, but seriously no make-up, really Katie? Who are you kidding?!

We have to admit it, Kim Kardashian looked absolutely stunning on her wedding day and Mr. West himself didn’t look too bad either!

However, it’s Kim make-up that has us interested. As always, it was completely flawless and not a lash or brow hair was out of place.

While we automatically assumed the make-up she went with would have cost a fortune, we were pleasantly surprised to discover that it actually didn’t.

Her make-up artist Mario Dedivanovic has revealed the products he used for the big day including L’Oreal Paris L’Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick by Color Riche a snip at €13.49 and Urban Decay eyeliner called Ink for Eyes at a mere €20.00

For her lashes, Kim also went with Urban Decay. She wore Perversion Mascara which isn’t even out, so she got it exclusively for her wedding.

Finally, ever one to promote her own brand, the now Mrs Kardashian West went with Kardashian Beauty Individual Eyelashes.

We all now have some hope of emulating her beauty!

Little Mix have definitely taken the music industry by storm and now it seems they are after the cosmetic industry.

The girls already have a cosmetic range, Little Mix by Collection, and are adding some pretty awesome items to it. Their new collection consists of moisturising lip balms with their favourite scents and shades so now you can look like the girls too … well sort of.

Talking about the lip gloss, Zayn Malik’s fiancé, said: “The lip balms were so much fun to create, mine is just shimmery as I have no sense of smell, whereas Jade’s is pink and comes in raspberry flavour which is as she is sweet as.”

They have also added a bumper eye shadow palette  with six neutral shades that Perrie is “super excited” about! She said: “’We wanted to create something the fans could use everyday, we love the eye palette and how versatile it is. It’s come in very handy on tour – it’s one product we can all use.

Their range already includes bronzer, blusher, mascara, lipstick, eyeliner and much more. With the range reflecting each of the girls’ personal styles: “bold like Jesy, vibrant like Jade, bronzed like Leigh-Anne and Daring like Perrie” you can rest assured that you will definitely find something for you!

Eek, this is embarrassing.

Poor Angelina Jolie suffered a somewhat major make-up fail on the red carpet last night.

Although her husband, Brad Pitt was by her side on the red carpet for the premier of The Normal Heart, he didn’t seem to notice his wife’s powdered face!

Angelina had patches of white powder all over her face which may have been highlighted by the camera flash.

The actress suffered a similar situation last week at a photo call for Maleficent but only on her legs and not too noticeable.

However, it was hard to miss the beauty faux-pas this time, we’re surprised Brad didn’t point it out.

Have you ever looked at a celebrity and wondered just how they can look flawless (almost!) every day, even when they are out walking the dog? Just for you, we have uncovered their secrets, and you’ll be surprised at what they have up their sleeves to achieve their lusted after look.

Fake lashes
If you have ever coveted after celebs’ long, luscious lashes, you may feel a little better to learn they are not actually natural – yes, the truth behind those perfect peepers are falsies! *breathe a sigh of relief*

Brow pencil
Thins brows? No problem! Just do what the famous people do – fill them in. An eyebrow pencil or powder can do wonders for your face shape.

Dewy make-up
Doesn’t it seem like every time a movie star hits the red carpet they are flaunting beautiful, dewy skin? The secret to their look is creamy foundation – yes, it’s that easy!

Blonde hair
Ever wondered why so many celebs opt for the blonde look? And no, before you say it, it has nothing to do with blondes having more fun. Adding a few highlights to naturally dark hair can make your skin look less washed out.

Concealer
They don’t go overboard with the under eye concealer – we’ve all seen what happens when they do.
