Whether you know Gillian Anderson from The Crown, The Fall or her role in the crime series The X-Files, we’re all on the same page in thinking the actress has seemingly defied ageing. The 56-year-old had practically the entirety of Sex Education’s 2.75m viewers in a chokehold thanks to the allure of her character, Jean Milburn and, if you ask us, doesn’t look a day over 40.
Naturally, we wanted to explore how the two-time Golden Globe winner achieves her effortless beauty – so we did some digging. As it happens, make-up artist Florrie White is behind a lot of Anderson’s red carpet looks, as well as catering to the faces of Meg Ryan, Sienna Miller, Uma Thurman and many, many more.
