Sky Showbiz catch up with Nicola Roberts as she tells us why she wouldn’t mind being stuck on a desert island with Cheryl Cole.

As Nicola launches her new Dainty Doll cosmetics line, we quiz the singer about the range.

And she even reveals her top fashion and beauty secrets.

What inspired you to start your own make-up line?
‘Seeing that no other brand on the market cater for paler skinned women really frustrated me. Having to use three or four different products to try and come up with a shade close to my skin tone was very time-consuming. I think it says it all when your make-up artist presents you with anexcited face, holding white face paint she’s imported from Japan!”

What’s new about the latest range?
“I have reformulated the whole line and brought as much common sense to the products as possible, giving woman of today something they need. For example my concealer “Abracadabra” has an anti-inflammatory inside. The formulation is predominantly natural and contains an anti-inflammatory – a must for anyone, including me, who has to deal with naughty skin.”

Who is your beauty icon?
“Gwen Stefani is my beauty icon, she is always so polished and her make up is just perfectly placed every time. Not fair!”

Your top beauty secret?
“My top beauty secret is my Dainty Doll Wonder Balm. There is nothing better at the end of a long day, maybe after a shoot, than coming home, washing your make-up off and applying the wonder balm. It’s enriched with Vitamin A, so nourishes and heals your skin.

I use it on my lips and all over my eyes to nourish my lashes and eyebrows. It’s a great soother and you can also use it over the top of your make-up for that fresh dewy look or to correct mistakes.”
