Denise Van Outen: My 5 beauty must-haves

24 November 2020

Up until lockdown, Denise Van Outen had been singing and dancing up a storm on stage, as part of her Cabaret All Stars show in the West End.

The show has now gone on hiatus but the 46-year-old isn’t sitting around twiddling her thumbs, she’s busy training for Dancing On Ice, one of 12 celebrities taking part in next year’s competition.

Having been a regular on our TV screens since the Nineties, when she presented The Big Breakfast, you can be sure Van Outen knows her stuff when it comes to getting glammed up and keeping her skin in tip-top condition.

Here, the multi-talented celeb shares the skincare and make-up products she can’t live without…

Byonik Concur Anti Pollution Cream Rich
