Pixie Geldof's make-up mission
The 34-year-old model/singer has revealed she's given up on mascara because it "doesn't suit" her and she now only wears lip liner, bronzing powder and a jelly blusher.
She told The Sunday Times newspaper: "I'm on a mission to cut down on the make-up I wear. Apart from lip liner, I wear the Milk Makeup Jelly Cheek Stain with some Hourglass bronzing powder.
"I stopped wearing mascara because I realised, after all these years, that it doesn't suit me."
Pixie also opened up about her love of vintage fashion - revealing she enlists her husband George Barnett to help her fix broken pieces she's bought because he's great at sewing.
She explained: "I find wear and tear beautiful. I mean I don't love a big stain, but I've bought things where the strap is broken - luckily my husband, George, is a dab hand at sewing."
Pixie declared her favourite outfit is jeans and an over-sized T-shirt, while she's also got an impressive shoe collection. She added: "I used to be a big high-heels person - even in the daytime - so I have a wonderful collection of mad shoes.
"I love a Miu Miu shoe and have a pair of ginormous gold platforms with crystals on. They're ridiculous and my favourite thing I've ever owned. But I wear Repetto ballet flats every day."
Pixie - who married George in Majorca in 2017 - previously revealed her wedding dress by Pierpaolo Piccioli is one of her favourite items of clothing and she kept it hanging in her living room for 18 months after her big day.
Speaking on British Vogue's The Closet Digest podcast, she said: "I love it so much, and I kept it hanging in my sitting room for like a year and a half."[Piccioli] called it the rainbow love dress. It felt celebratory, I wanted there to be a playfulness to it.
"I think I'd had a hard time, and I wanted that day to be the opposite of that."
She added that the sketches of her wedding day outfit remain on display in frames throughout her home.

'Delicate dilemma': Prince William and Prince Harry caught in quiet competition for the coveted godfather role to the Duke of Westminster's newborn daughter
Prince William and Prince Harry are once again on opposing sides- this time over who will be chosen as godfather to their close friend, the Duke of Westminster's first child. Hugh Grosvenor, 34, and his wife, Olivia, 32, welcomed daughter Cosima Florence Grosvenor last month, just over a year after their lavish Chester Cathedral wedding. Grosvenor, who is King Charles III's godson and affectionately known as Hughie, is one of the closest friends of both William and Harry, and one of the few people chosen as a godparent by both royal brothers. He is godfather to both Prince George, 12, and Prince Archie, six. On Sunday, friends close to the Duke and Duchess of Westminster told The Times that "no decision has yet been made" about Cosima's godparents, but it remains a "particularly delicate dilemma". While it's believed William, 43, will take up the role, the new father is still weighing up whether to also ask Harry, 40, despite ongoing family tensions since the Sussexes stepped back from royal duties in 2020 and moved to California. Both brothers are understood to have sent congratulations following Cosima's birth on July 27, though no date has been set for her christening. Notably, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex did not attend Grosvenor's wedding last June. Prince William, by contrast, played a key role as usher on the day, greeting guests and guiding them to their seats before the ceremony. His wife, Princess Catherine, was unable to attend due to receiving chemotherapy treatment for an undisclosed form of cancer and is understood to have remained at home in Windsor with their three children. Reports later revealed Grosvenor had considered inviting Harry and Meghan but feared the royal rift would overshadow the nuptials. At the time, a friend of the princes told The Sunday Times: "It's incredibly sad it has come to this. Hugh is one of very few close friends of William and Harry's who has maintained strong bonds and a line of communication with both. "He wishes they could put their heads together and patch things up, but realises it's unlikely to happen before the wedding. "He wanted to avoid anything overshadowing the day, especially for Olivia, and doesn't want any awkwardness." Sources close to the Sussexes later suggested they had received a "save the date" card but opted not to attend, as it would have been"too awkward". Now 7th Duke of Westminster, Grosvenor inherited an estimated £9 billion (AUD $18 billion) fortune from his late father, Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor, who died in 2016. His inheritance includes 140,000 acres across Oxfordshire, Cheshire, Lancashire and Scotland, along with 300 acres in Mayfair and Belgravia.

Mark Hamill considered leaving the US when Donald Trump was reelected
Mark Hamill considered leaving the US when Donald Trump got re-elected. The Star Wars actor - who has three children with wife Marilou - told how he asked his spouse to consider relocating to either Ireland or London, England, after Joe Biden left office earlier this but she managed to talk him out of the idea. He recalled to The Sunday Times magazine: 'She's very clever. She didn't respond right away but a week later she said, 'I'm surprised you would allow him to force you out of your own country.' That son of a b****, I thought. I'm not leaving.' The 73-year-old star is hopeful there are still a number of "honest, decent people" in the US. He said: 'I still believe there are more honest, decent people than there are the Maga crowd. If I didn't, I'd move back to England.' Mark is horrified by the decisions Trump has made since regaining the presidency but has decided to look at the situation as the plot of a particularly entertaining novel. He said: 'The bullying, the incompetence, the people in place… The only way I can deal with it without going crazy and wanting to open my veins in a warm tub is to look at it like a thick, sprawling political novel. "It's entertaining in a way because this could actually be the end. Our status in the world has been crippled and that will reverberate for decades. "Making Canada a 51st state? Do you know how offensive that is? And then taking over Greenland and renaming the Gulf of Mexico. The distractions are hilarious.' Mark is likely pleased he didn't move away from the US because he is so content with his life, he was considering retiring until his two latest roles, in The Life of Chuck and The Long Walk, came along. He said: 'I was OK financially and really content with my family life. My three kids live nearby so they can visit. I love the dogs. I love my wife. "I love sitting out in the backyard with one of the two or three books I usually have on the go.'
