Millie Bobby Brown taught herself make-up techniques via YouTube videos.
The 'Stranger Things' actress spent "hours" watching how people applied their cosmetics and she's now very confident in doing her face herself.
She told Vogue.com: “I learned to do my own make-up going on YouTube and searching out makeup tutorials. I was, like, 12, and I just watched people do their make-up for hours.
“When I would watch my grandma do her makeup in the morning, I loved the smell of her lipstick. 80 years into her life, she knew how she liked to do her make-up. I love that.”
The 20-year-old star is also happy to touch up her fiance Jake Bongiovi's skin too.
She admitted: “Jake loves it when I put concealer on him."
Millie has her own Florence by Mills range and she treats her co-stars to the products.
She said: “I brought in Florence products to set on 'Damsel'. I definitely put eye gels on Nick Robinson, and I think he liked it.”
The 'Enola Holmes' star is a big fan of blush now but used to "hate" the product.
She said: “I hated blush. When I was young I was like, I want to look older! Put bronzer on me. But now, I love blush again! Woo hoo!”
Millie is "sad" about her lack of natural brows.
She quipped: “My mom gave me a good spirit and a good attitude, but no eyebrows. I'm sad about that.”
But the actress has mastered a three-step routine for her brows, brushing them and filling them in with a pencil before adding a top coat of Charlotte Tilbury's clear gel. Millie then uses the make-up artist's shadow in a chocolate shade and her own Call Time eyeliner before opting for a budget-friendly swipe of L’Oréal’s Voluminous Original Mascara in Deep Burgundy.
She said of the product: “I like the colour it brings out in my eyes.
I don’t like colouring my lashes; I don’t like other people colouring my lashes. But I actually love what [colours] do for my lashes.”
