She said that fragrance is an effective way of changing mindset, and bringing memories back. "My new favourite is Giorgio Armani’s Sì Le Parfum (€49.50)– a deep, amber-y version of the original, which is dark and sensual." She said. For her eyes, Cate keeps it simple, with easy and affordable make-up. "I also love By Terry’s kohl pencil (€28) as it’s waterproof and luscious to use, and Suqqu’s eyebrow pen (€23), which gives perfect precision and is easy to get right, even for me!" She explained.

And when it comes to skincare however, she treats herself to high-end brand SK-II. "In terms of my skincare routine, SK-II is my go-to brand; the Facial Treatment Oil is perfect for those super-dehydrated days. It nourishes and calms your skin." She said.
