Wuthering Heights star Margot Robbie is blessed with beauty, but that doesn't mean we can't try and copy the makeup products she uses to get the same glow.
The 35-year-old Wuthering Heights actress has a few go-to foundations that she just loves. We've unearthed an interview she did with British Vogue where she spilled the beans on her most-used skincare and makeup essentials.

That sh*t doesn’t come off. It looks like skin, but it doesn’t budge. I haven’t found another foundation that stays on like that without looking heavy."
While I've not tried Ellis Faas before, the other two products I also think are brilliant. Laura Mercier's Tinted Moisturiser is a dream to apply and also gets the seal of approval from many celebrities.
Like Margot, I like to wear a heavier foundation for an event (ok, my events are slightly different to her events but whatever!) and the Suqqu Foundation is a hero for long-lasting foundation. It's the kind of makeup you wear and you feel flawless. I'm in my forties and the Japanese brand's foundation blends seamlessly and doesn't settle into fine lines or wrinkles. It also gives a lovely glow to the skin. I do think it's quite expensive but you don't need to apply much. I also like that it's in a jar (but that is personal taste as lots of people prefer bottles with pump action).
The price tag might be to do with the fact that the foundation is infused with 13 Japanese-sourced extracts (think green tea and silk protein), so the formula leaves skin smooth and hydrated while blending seamlessly and staying luminous throughout the day.
The interview Margot did with Vogue might be a little old, and of course she's also a huge fan of Chanel makeup as well nowadays. The Aussie actress' makeup artist - the iconic Pati Dubroff - exclusively uses Chanel beauty products on her celebrity client Taking to Instagram, the makeup artist revealed that this was her favourite beauty look out of all of them...

Another foundation I adore. So basically, what I'm trying to say here is that Margot Robbie and I are so alike and we could even share makeup bags on a night out and be best friends.
Margot Robbie's favourite foundations
SUQQU The Foundation

With 23 buildable and versatile shades in rose beige, beige and yellow-beige undertones, you can find your match for true second-skin coverage.
Designed for prolonged radiance, the formula has three stages of wear: when first applied, the 'Top Glow' is fresh sheer effect that's created by the formula's reflection oils grant a moisture-rich, translucent finish after a short time, the 'Middle Glow' is seen as the reflection oils settle onto your skin and pearlescent pigments begin to reflect light for an even, radiant glow finally, the 'Base Glow' is seen once your natural sebum mixes with the formula, increasing the transparency of the pigment and revealing a dewy, sunlit glow.

This is a super hydrating tinted moisturiser with sheer, natural-looking coverage, infused with SPF for everyday protection.
Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Foundation

This is a natural-looking foundation with a silky texture. It glides over skin and feels like a second skin.
In an interview with Refinery29, Pati was asked about applying finishing powder, and she recommended that you practice patience. "The key is waiting 'til the end of the makeup to apply powder. If you try powdering right away, you end up having to put on too much because your foundation may look too shiny when first applied. If you let it sit, you allow makeup time to settle, and you'll see which areas need powder and which don’t. If you're super oily and your makeup slips off, I'd recommend using blotting papers, too."
For anyone who's more on the drier side, she recommended: "After foundation, sometimes I go back in with moisturiser, using my fingertips on the high points. It acts like a highlighter without the shimmer, keeps makeup in place and just looks like juicy, plump skin."
