Betty Adewole, IMG

The 21-year-old Londoner has already graced the pages of POP, V, and ID magazines. She opened and closed the fall '12 Ungaro show and is a recurring fixture on catwalks across the globe.

What are some of the beauty issues you face because of your on-the-go schedule?

"Frizzy hair! Whilst out and about in humid conditions, my hair can get very frizzy. All the traveling I do also causes my skin to become very dry."

What are your favorite on-the-go beauty products and why?

"My favorite skin products are Simple Facial Wipes. I love them because they come in handy small packets and can remove any type of makeup with minimal irritation. Also, MAC Pro-Longwear Concealer, which comes in a tiny tube that can fit into any bag — a little under the eyes does the world of good and hides any tiredness!"

Do you have any tried-and-true tips for when you are on the go?

"Drink lots of water! And, carry a hairbrush!"

Any tips for packing beauty products so you aren't lugging around a billion lotions and potions?

"I take only the essentials such as facial wipes, mini nail-polish-remover packs, and concealer."

What's the best piece of beauty advice you've ever been given, and who gave it to you?

"To drink lots of water to keep my skin hydrated and looking fresh. I learned that from my mum!"

Are there any tips you've picked up from backstage pros that you've incorporated into your existing beauty routine?

"Always carry facial wipes or cleanser and a mirror to check your face and hair whilst in a taxi and on the go."

BETTY: OUR COVER STARS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES
November 11th, 2013

Betty Adewole has just had the best season of her career, walking for labels such as Alexander McQueen, Givenchy and Prada, the last as an exclusive.

What was the highlight of your season?
I think Prada. That was pretty amazing.
What did you think of the M.I.A and Britney soundtrack?
It was one of the best soundtracks. Amazing! It was hard to not break out into a little dance.
How was Givenchy? That was quite amazing. 
Yes! It was epic, they had like cars in the middle of the floor, live drums.
Quite amazing. Have you been watching The Face
Old episodes, not the new ones.
What would you do if Naomi Campbell told you to fix your lipstick?
[Laughs] I’d check it.
You’d have to wouldn’t you.
But I don’t wear lipstick so it doesn’t matter.
How’s the rest of the season shaping up for you?
I shot British Vogue yesterday. And we’re holding five other really good editorials a the moment so it’s a really good season.
Do you have a life outside of work anymore? 
Yes, if I make it happen. I see my friends briefly but in intense intervals so it’s cool. Not as much but they understand.
Where do you like going out with your friends? 
East. I’m from Hackney so…
Betty’s Agent: We scouted her at (infamous gay fashion hang out) the George and Dragon.
It’s my local. I grew up around there.
What do you think about when you’re walking the runway?
Sometimes a track will play in my head like ‘work work fashion baby’ and I’m like acting, I switch it on.
Aside from the George & Dragon what are your hobbies?
I love going to the cinema, watching films. I like sci-fi, I used to love horror but not anymore because it started giving me nightmares so I had to stop watching it. Sci-fi I love. Like Fifth Element, one of my favorite films.
If you were in a horror film how would you survive?
Wit and cunning! I’m pretty charming.
True say.
