• "I used to steal my older sister's pink-and-green Maybelline mascara."

On doing her on make-up
"It's a learning process. I can do a decent job, but I like to leave it to the professionals when it counts."

On doing her on make-up
"When I first moved to L.A. I got a callback, and a producer said he'd like to see me with more makeup. But he told my agent that she might have to put it on "because I didn't seem like the kind of girl who would know how." And he was right! I had to go into the bathroom at my agency and have my agent do my makeup."
• "I still keep it pretty simple, although I like getting dolled up to hang out with friends. Sometimes, if you need a pick-me-up, there's nothing better than a new lip gloss. At any given moment, I can have upwards of 10 glosses in my purse. And I am addicted to perfumes. I love Jo Malone's scents - the Nectarine Blossom & Honey, the French Lime Blossom, and the Orange Blossom. I don't have a signature scent; I switch depending on my mood."
• "If I'm outdoors, I'm constantly reapplying sunscreen. My sister used to call me Fish-Belly Blue because I was so pale. I went to Italy this summer and decided I'd be a rebel and sit out in the sun wearing a sunscreen with a low SPF. The next day I woke up with a rash all over my body."
• "My skin rejects the sun. I had a grown man at a water park once yell at me to get a tan... Me in a swimsuit - that's a lot of pale skin!"
• "I get regular facials. I had some skin problems when I was starting to film
Catch Me If You Can. I had really dry skin. I went to Marion Simms at Skin Sense in L.A., and she got it under control. I've been going there since then for the standard facial."
• "I really like red, but I'm always open to change. I would love to cut my hair and try platinum - Christina Aguilera blond. Harlow blond."
• "I've had red hair for the past four years. Before that, I never thought of being anything but blond. There was a definite shift in my life when I decided to go red. I tend to laugh a lot, and I can be really silly. I think when you have blond hair, people associate those behaviors with being flighty. With red hair, you're suddenly quirky."
• "I always wanted to be taller. I was a dancer, so I always admired that willowy effect. I still look at it with a sense of longing, but I fully accept I can't change it. I just walk tall. And wear wedges."
• "Carolina Herrera is great for the red carpet. I wore a brown full-skirted corseted Herrera dress for the Oscars. (My favourite Oscar moment was Rachel Weisz helping me with eye-drops in the bathroom.)"
• "I really love J Mendel, his dresses are so feminine. I've worn Giambattista Valli (from Harvey Nichols), whose dresses are really cool. I wore a purple Zac Posen dress in a photo shoot recently that was unbelievable."
• "Rickard Shah shoes are really beautiful and they fit me really well. I have dancer's feet, so shoes can get pretty uncomfortable."
• "I'm really a jeans and T-shirt girl."
• "When I'm on set or travelling, I always like to have a nice cashmere scarf."
• "Dresses. That's basically all I buy for summer from vintage boutiques in LA such as Ethel."
• "I sleep in my boyfriend's T-shirts."
