SHE has always loved experimenting with her image and has debuted some dramatic looks over the years.
But I have heard that Little Mix star Perrie Edwards is set to show off her natural beauty after landing a lucrative deal with beauty giant L’Oreal.
The Black Magic hitmaker has secured an agreement, understood to be worth £300,000, with its skincare brand CeraVe, which prides itself on working with dermatologists and developing products for sensitive skin.
A source said: “Perrie wants to show that taking care of your skin can be affordable and people don’t need to break the bank with fancy creams.
“She has always loved testing different make- up looks, but knows that taking care of her skin is a priority. Perrie will also be able to show off her edgy side with the advert.”
The singer, who has a three-year-old son, Axel, with former Premier League footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, told Fabulous magazine in 2018: “I have very sensitive skin, and I used to use loads of products on my face because I thought that was best.”
She added: “The worst thing I used to do was go out partying and drinking and just sleep with my make-up on.
“You think, ‘Oh it’s only one night, I’m too tired, I really can’t be bothered to take all my make-up off’.
“But it only takes one night for a week’s worth of acne, so you have to be strict with it.”
It comes as Perrie teased new solo music this week to her 18.8million Instagram followers with a montage of footage.
She reacted with a raindrop emoji to a fan who commented: “The drought is over!! So happy and excited for you.”
Pop star Perrie last released music in February, with her single Rollercoaster, about the ups and downs that come with love.
With this skincare deal and new music on the horizon, little wonder Perrie has such an unblemished career . . .

EMILIA FEELS ‘LUCKY’ BEING LEADING LADY
EMILIA FOX has revealed that she is “lucky” to have never experienced misogyny – thanks to her leading role on hit series Silent Witness.
The actress, who has played pathologist Sam Ryan for over 20 years, said: “I haven’t experienced it, and certainly, at my age now at 50, I’ve been very lucky.
11
“I’ve been part of a show, which was led brilliantly by actress Amanda Burton. It was her legacy that really left the mark on the show.
“Sam Ryan was written for a leading female actress, playing a woman in a man’s world when Silent Witness first began.
“I think I got very, very lucky being able to play a lead, which I’ve been playing for two decades now.”
Emilia who is working with My Pension Expert, to encourage people turning 50 to take control of their future, said she is encouraging her teenage daughter Rose to save money.
She said: “She puts away a few pounds every week so that she will see, hopefully, a benefit in the future to saving every week.
“I hope that will be the example she then grows up with. I think having a good work ethic and savings ethic is insurance for life.”
SABRINA CARPENTER, who caused a stir with her new album cover, has unveiled an alternative one for Man’s Best Friend.

ONLY WAY IS ESSEX FOR EKIN-SU
SINCE her triumph on Love Island three years ago, Ekin-Su Culculoglu has remained one of the most successful contestants.
Now I can reveal that the beauty, currently starring on ITV’s Cooking With The Stars, has snapped up a £900k four-bedroom mansion in Essex, near her parents.
11
Ekin was close to investing in Surrey, and even looked around some properties with ex Curtis Pritchard, but did a last minute U-turn to stay more local to her family.
A source said: “Ekin’s worked really hard since winning Love Island with ad campaigns and a steady stream of telly appearances.
“She has snapped up this home and chose somewhere more modest so she could be closer to her parents, who she spends a lot of time with.
“She’s looking forward to getting stuck in and fixing it up to her perfect style. She’s really proud of everything she’s achieved and ready to lay down roots.”
Since appearing on Love Island: All Stars in January, Ekin split with Curtis, with the star calling it “unfortunate” – but she has been concentrating on her career instead, with a focus on acting.
She better not get too comfortable in the UK as Hollywood beckons…
NOEL’S GOT S-MASH HIT ON HAND
HE famously sings that “Sally can wait” in hit song Don’t Look Back In Anger.
And it seems that Noel Gallagher’s girlfriend Sally Mash is firmly by his side during their Oasis Live 25 Tour.
11
I can reveal that she has been his “secret weapon” during their sold-out tour – with the Gallagher brothers on stage for their second gig at Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh, last night.
A source said: “Sally has been his secret weapon throughout the tour so far.
“She has been at every one of the gigs alongside brother Liam’s girlfriend Debbie Gwyther.
“Their relationship has gone from strength to strength and Sally has loved watching Noel in his element on stage.”
Noel’s daughter Anais has also been at every gig.
Last year The Sun revealed Noel was dating events organiser Sally – after confirming his split from wife Sara MacDonald, with whom he shares sons Donovan and Sonny.
Speaking about Sally, Noel previously said: “She says she sees a steely look in my eyes.”
When asked what she makes of him singing the hit 1996 song Don’t Look Back In Anger, referencing “Sally”, he said: “She’s cool about it.”
It sounds like the name Sally has been a hit all round over the years.

ED AND RUPERT’S FAM WEEKENDER
ED SHEERAN has got fans seeing double in the music video for his new track A Little More.
His doppelganger Rupert Grint stars in the video – 14 years after he appeared in Ed’s hit Lego House.
11
Ed, who shares daughters Lyra and Jupiter with wife Cherry Seaborn, invited the Harry Potter actor, his partner Georgia Groome and their daughters Wednesday and Goldie to stay at his home in Suffolk while filming the video.
And it was a family affair, with Ed saying: “Our daughters [Lyra and Wednesday] are exactly the same age – they get on”.
Sounds perfect.
PETE AND JOWITA GO SUPERSONIC
It seems Pete Wicks cannot let go of his Strictly Come Dancing pro partner Jowita Przystał.
The happy pair were spotted arm-in-arm at last Wednesday’s Oasis gig at Wembley Stadium.

An onlooker said: “Pete is very fond of Jowita and they shared a sweet moment during the set.
“They have both expressed how much they mean to each other following their close bond on Strictly.”
It comes after Pete recently revealed that Jowita was “one of the most important people” in his life.
Pete, who split from Love Island’s Maura Higgins in February, revealed on his podcast with I’m A Celebrity winner Sam Thompson that he invited Jowita to the gig.
On the Staying Relevant podcast, he said: “Well the reason that Jowita and I are going [to Oasis] is because we danced to Oasis on Strictly.”
Ahead of the new Strictly series, Pete said: “I will be vetting her new partner!”
Jowita recently posted a snap of her with Pete on Instagram.
Looks like her new Strictly partner will have big shoes to fill . . .
