Actress Bonnie Sveen is best known for her role on popular Australian Drama Home and Away playing the character of Ricky Sharpe. Last year she took out the Logie for best female new Talent and has been nominated for the Silver Logie for best actress 2015.

In addition to being a talented Actress and Artist, who's star is rapidly ascending,  Bonnies natural beauty is equally remarkable and is something I can attest to having worked with her on the set of Home and Away.

Makeup just enhances and brings out her beautiful features.  I was lucky enough to interview her for my Bgirl BLOG so here Bonnie shares with us just how she keeps her skin looking so fresh and gorgeous and she also fills us in on her beauty secrets.

Laura:  Describe your makeup style?
Bonnie: Natural - covering blemishes, dark circles, maybe a bit of mascara.

Laura:  If you are going out for the day what would be your makeup routine?
Bonnie: I would fill in my eyebrows, concealer on sunspots, under eyes and in sockets, mascara, foundation, bronzer - contouring cheeks and hairline and maybe some lip stain.

Laura: What is your nighttime skin care routine? 
‪Bonnie: Make up remover on eyes (trying not to lose any of my precious eyebrow and eyelash hairs) and cetephil cleanser with warm water followed by Dermalogica skin smoothing moisturizer.

Laura: How do you keep your skin looking so good?
Bonnie: Um... Thank you!  try to consume 2-3 litres water everyday, vitamin C (apparently also helps keep you hydrated) good fats - avocado on toast everyday, plus coconut and  almond/macadamia oils, iron rich veggies for dinner EVERYDAY, lots of salmon, regular sleep, daily sunscreen... Come to think of it, I try my best to take care inside out!

Laura:  What are some of your favourite makeup brands?
Bonnie: I love Mac make up colours and Dermalogica skincare products and KMS Hair Repair, especially the leave in moisturizer.

Laura:  What top 5 makeup products do you need in your makeup bag?
Bonnie: Foundation (plus brush) mascara, bronzer, tinted balm/lip stick, concealer.

Laura:  What is your no 1 beauty secret/tip?
‪Bonnie: Hmm... Always finish on a high note when you step away from the mirror - note the things that are looking fabulous in your reflection! Carry that confidence with you for the rest of your day. A glow and self love speak volumes in aesthetics.
