As a radio presenter and mum to a one-year-old, Mollie King knows a thing or two about getting ready in a hurry and now The Saturdays star, who shares daughter Annabella with fiancé Stuart Broad, has revealed her favourite multitasking lipstick for a quick beauty pick me up.
“The thing I'm tending to do at the moment is using the same cheek colour and lip colour,” she exclusively told heat.
“So I might just pop a bit of lipstick on the cheek to kind of look like I've got a little colour there… I love Charlotte Tilbury ‘Pillow Talk’ - [it’s] just a classic.”
The iconic shade is a nude-pink colour that lots of celebs swear by including - Love Island 2021's Sharon Gaffka, Ashley James and Love Island winter's Jessie Wynter.
For Mollie, 36, who rose to fame as a member of The Saturdays, a full beauty look is way less of a priority now that she’s a parent.

“It's definitely something that I've relaxed more about which I think is a healthy thing,” Mollie said.
Now, she gets ready most days in 10 minutes and opts for just an under-eye concealer from Lancôme, that double-duty lipstick, and a baseball cap.
“I just keep things light, nothing too heavy that's going to get congested throughout the day,” she added.
However, glamour is the last thing on Mollie’s mind this week. On Monday, the radio presenter kicked off the first leg of her Pedal Power challenge for Comic Relief, which will see her cycle 500km from London to Hull in five days.
Mollie was joined at the start line by Stuart and her daughter, as well as her Radio 1 co-stars including Greg James and Matt Edmondson. She’ll be covering 100km a day, and told us that how she looked would be the “last of her worries” on her journey.
After all, Mollie is no experienced cyclist and had never ridden on a road or on her own before beginning training in mid-January. Speaking just days before kicking off her charity challenge, Mollie said, “At the moment the furthest I've been able to do is an hour and 40 minutes and honestly, you should see the state of me when I get back from that.
“At the moment they're predicting that I will be on the road for eight hours a day, so who knows what state I'll be in? But to be honest, I don't care. I just want to get from A to B every day and that in itself will be a huge accomplishment.”
