Lucy Watson is the latest celebrity to reveal her beauty secrets over Twitter, as she answered fans questions about the makeup she wears, yesterday. This appeared to be inspired by a makeup shopping trip with Made in Chelsea co-star Binky Felstead. 

Lucy normally wears quite simple yet striking makeup, as she often applies a slick of eyeliner to her upper lashes with very neutral eyeshadow and keeps her complexion clear. She revealed that her favourite brands are one's which are not tested on animals, such as Urban Decay, Smashbox, Stila and Liz Earle. To get that smokey eye look, which Lucy loves, she uses Smashbox gel liner. Love the tips Lucy - keep them coming!

Birthday beauty gifts

Here are some snaps of what I got for my birthday this year - my list was basically made up of makeup so its no surprise that I mainly got makeup. 

Ted Baker makeup bag

For all these years I have managed with flimsy little canvas makeup bags which I have got as freebies. I have never owned anything sturdy or that fill fit more than a couple of mascaras and small eyeshadow palettes in. So I am excited to use this one and love the bright pink colour.

Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Liner

I have been having problems with my liquid eyeliner (Max Factor's Glide and Define), namely that I complete one lined eye and I go to do the over one and not much liquid comes out. So I wanted something that would come out of a jar so you can control the intensity of the colour.

Nars Orgasm Blush

This is a firm favourite of mine, its such a gorgeous pink, shimmery blusher and makes you look healthy and radiant. I think its one of those products that once you've tried you can't ever go back to using anything else. Also Kourtney Kardashian is a fan of this blusher!

Urban Decay NAKED palette 

This is a firm favourite with beauty bloggers and I can see why, with a mixture of natural and bold shades this palette can take you from day to night. It is loved by celebrities such as Millie Mackintosh from Made in Chelsea and acclaimed beauty blogger Tanya Burr.
