Nigella Lawson always looks flawless, and now we know exactly how to emulate her beauty look, as the TV chef has just revealed her ultimate makeup must-haves.
And, luckily for us, one of her go-to buys is pleasingly affordable...
Chatting through her top three "essential products" in Style magazine on Sunday (18 August), Nigella revealed that she relies on a mascara that costs just £3.30 from Wilko.
Revealing that she has finally found the perfect mascara, the 59-year-old explained that, while the Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara "is not subtle", it gives you "long, long lashes and seemingly, many more of them".

The TV chef admitted that she has only ever applied the mascara after using her eyelash curler – and wouldn't use it on her lower lashes – but added that "it doesn't smudge or flake" and said, "I wouldn't be without it".
The mascara is currently out of stock on the Wilko website, but you can sign up to be alerted by email when it's back.
As well as her favourite mascara, Nigella revealed that her other two makeup must-haves are a £29 concealer by Charlotte Tilbury and a £31 CC cream by IT Cosmetics.
Of the Charlotte Tilbury Mini Miracle Eye Wand, Nigella said: "Ms Tilbury is being modest when she calls it a mini miracle."

Explaining that the two-ended concealer helps to smooth the under-eye area and "brings instant radiance" to your skin, Nigella added that the product "does its job so well" she usually uses it alone, rather than under foundation, as intended.

When it comes to her base of choice, Nigella revealed that the IT Cosmetics CC+ Illumination SPF50+ cream "makes you look like you simply have the most wonderful skin".
And, given that she insisted you only need "the teeniest tiniest amount" in order to fake the complexion of "one of those lucky people who doesn't need to wear makeup", it's fair to say we're sold.
Thanks for the tips, Nigella!
