10 Questions with Troian Bellisario

10 Questions with Troian Bellisario

December 8, 2010 |  by

MTB: What beauty trick did you learn from your mom?

TB: Eye Cream, every night. Starting that habit as young as possible and drinking as much water as possible throughout the day.

MTB: What drugstore product do you swear by?

TB: I get everything from the drugstore. Shampoo, Conditioner, lotion. I just follow my nose as to what smells I like best and then I grab it and go.

MTB: What products would we find in your teensiest red carpet clutch?

TB: My phone…if I can fit it. What else could possible be stuffed in those things? They’re for fairies, not people.

MTB: What products do you never travel without?

TB: A book and my journal.

MTB: What’s your biggest beauty splurge?

TB: Umm…organic beauty products from Whole Foods? Please don’t ask me for names, I couldn’t tell you if I wanted to.

MTB: Who is your beauty icon from the past?

TB: Patti Smith and Audrey Hepburn.

MTB: Who is your current beauty icon?

TB: Cate Blanchett and Natalie Portman.

MTB: Which of your red carpet beauty looks was your favorite?

TB:Oh, wow! I seriously just spent 30 minutes online looking at the Red Carpet looks of other actresses I admire trying to find a favorite. I was getting very, very frustrated because I thought, “I’m never going to find just one!” And then I re-read this question and saw the word, “your.”  Well, that just got a lot easier because I’ve only had about three red carpet looks. So, I guess the Teen Choice Awards dress? It was sparkly.

MTB: If you could trade hair with anyone, who would it be?

TB: Right now? Mia Wasikowska or Carrie Mulligan. I’m dying to get a role where they ask me to cut off all my hair. I’ve always had long hair, I think I will for the majority of my life, but just once I’d like to chop it all off or even shave it!

MTB: The one beauty trend you’ll never embrace and the one beauty trend you’d like to bring back?

TB: The neon colors of the late ’80s early ’90s. Please, please, let them rest in peace. I get frightened whenever a magazine does a spread with nuclear turquoise eye shadow and they capitalize the words “IT’S BACK!” The thick liner of the ’60s. I love Anna Karenna’s eyes in Une Femme est une Femme, any Godard film really. I adore that style of make up.
