Jade Ewen: My beauty secrets

By Joani Walsh, Sara Feast, Octavia Walker 10/10/2010

The newest Sugababe, 22, tells us about her best beauty products

1 I’ve tried loads of different products to stop my skin going dry when I cleanse and I’ve had problems with each one. The only one that really agrees with me is the Body Shop Vitamin E Cream Exfoliator, £7.50.

2 I really like Barry M Nail Paints. They have such fab colours – and some are dead-ringers for Chanel varnishes. One of my favourites is Navy, £2.95, a midnight blue that glistens in the light. And you can usually get two for a fiver, which is such a bargain.

3 I can’t live without my MAC Amplified Creme Lipstick in Girl About Town, £12.50. I wear it with a cherry coloured lip liner, also from MAC.

4 We’ve just brought out three Sugababes fragrances. It wasn’t something I ever expected to be able to do and I loved getting involved with picking the packaging and the ingredients. My favourite is Tempt, £19.99, which smells stronger and sexier than the other two, so it’s perfect for evenings.

5 If I had a choice I’d never wear foundation. I don’t have problem skin and I hate the build-up I get after a few days’ wear. Instead I use Benefit Moonbeam Highlighter, £17.50, on my cheeks and nose to look fresh and awake.
