Pixie Geldof has shared her best fashion and beauty secrets – revealing she’s on a “mission” to cut down the amount of make-up she uses and she loves buying broken vintage pieces so she can fix them up.
Pixie Geldof is on a “mission” to cut down the amount of make-up she wears.
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.
