This year is shaping up to be Margot Robbie's best one yet — and that's saying a lot, considering the 26-year-old actress already has films like The Wolf of Wall Street and The Big Short under her belt.
Besides starring in summer blockbusters Suicide Squad and The Legend of Tarzan, she's also the face of Calvin Klein's fragrance, Deep Euphoria. 'It's genuinely the one I wear,' she said, of the modern scent.
Robbie's perfume I.Q. has risen significantly since she was gifted her first fragrance as a kid: 'I remember it said Eau de Toilette and I thought my mum had given me toilet spray and I was like, why did she do that?', she recalled.
Here, the blonde bombshell spills her beauty secrets, exercise regime and why she'll never give up cheese ...
What is the best beauty tip you've ever learned, and who was it from?
My friend taught me this trick that I use it every day. When I put on foundation, I use an eyebrow brush or toothbrush to brush it into my hairline so that it all blends. Especially because I have blonde hair but tanned skin, if I don't blend it, it looks gross - you can see the foundation in my hair.
I do that every single day, and every time my husband [Tom Ackerley] is like, "What are you doing?" And I'm like, "I'm brushing my make-up into my hairline!" And he's like, "Girls are crazy."
If you have a photoshoot/TV appearance tomorrow, how do you prepare your skin?
For photoshoots, I don't even worry anymore because with photoshop these days if I wake up with a massive pimple I'm like, they're gonna airbrush it out, it doesn't matter. I get more scared when I'm filming.
If I eat or drink heaps of dairy, my skin breaks out. I love dairy and I have it all the time but if I'm filming or if my skin is really shit, then I try to cut down and just drink lots of water. But I pretend cheese isn't dairy because I will never accept that I can't have it. I love it.
What was the last song you downloaded?
I've been listening obsessively to 'Lemonade', especially that song Hold Up. It has that reggae vibe I'm really into.
What was the last thing you Googled?
This is such a good question! Let me check my phone...Last thing I Googled was a map of Hungary. I'm working in Budapest and I was trying to figure out what the bordering countries were and if I could do any weekend trips. I was very happy to see Croatia was so close by, because I had the best time of my life there.
What would your last meal on earth be?
Cheese, cheese, cheese. Or a burger. I adore burgers. Probably it would be the truffle burger from Umami and a really nice IPA, like a german wheat beer.
What three words that best describe your fitness philosophy:
- Reluctant
- Fun
- Sporadic
My version of exercising is going to do a dance class you go with a friend its really fun and it's exercise at the same time.
What would your career plan B have been?
When I was little I wanted to own hotels. I'm certain I would have started some sort of company [if I hadn't gone into acting] because I think I am quite business-savvy. So either owning hotels, or being a scuba diving instructor or sky-diving instructor. Some sort of instructor where I could live somewhere cool and do something fun every day.
