I don't wear base, as I don't like to cover up my freckles, but I couldn't live without YSL Touche Eclat for hiding my under-eye circles. I love the smoky-eye look, so I use Dior's 5-Colour Eyeshadow in Night Dust and lashings of mascara. I finish with a dash of bronzer for a healthy glow.

England understands good Chinese, Japanese and Indian cuisine; in France, we just get French.

We all show facets, to your mother, or to your boyfriend, or a friend. You're always a bit different.

I wear no makeup in real life. I'm very simple. That may be why I go over the top for the red carpet. But otherwise, I'm very plain. I should make more of an effort, actually.

I hope I will not be typecast as a Bond girl for the rest of my life. I'm very proud of being a part of the Bond family, but I don't want to be the sexy girl forever. I'm not meaning to complain, but I just want to be taken seriously.

It's true that I'm drawn to unusual stories. Normal roles don't really attract me.

Lots of shy people dress a bit too much. It's just kind of an armour. People say the same thing about me.
