Cate Blanchett has been sporting a seriously radiant complexion as of late (Getty)

Team Grazia beauty have always been seriously envious of Hollywood starlet Cate Blanchett’s radiant, glowing skin, although as of late, our Blanchett-radar has been out in full force as the 44-year-old actress has been looking even better than usual. Which, we admit, didn’t even think was possible. Out and about this weekend in France for the 39th Deauville film festival, Cate’s skin was looking beyond ethereal and just absolutely amazing. Swoon!

What’s more, Cate has been the face of skincare brand SK-II for years now, and is the obvious statement that this range of products really does work. Miss Blanchett even revealed once that she had always been a huge fan of SK-II, even before working with the brand: “A lot of the products help to ‘brighten’ the skin, but that doesn’t mean ‘whitening’ as some people assume; it’s to prevent pigmentation caused by ageing and sun damage.” Australian born Cate has always stayed out of the sun, proud to show off her ‘pale and interesting’ complexion. Might this be her secret to an ever-radiant glow

If, like us, your skin is feeling a little lacklustre come end of summer, and looking at pictures of Cate’s skin is making you feel ready to take some serious, glow-getting action, then fear not, ladies! Prepare for a seriously fresh-faced, radiant, dewy complexion with our pick of the best products for a gorgeously luminous visage come tomorrow morning. Yes, really…

We knew it wouldn’t be long before Suki Waterhouse became a Burberry girl. She fits the mold (young, beautiful, rock ‘n’ roll), attends the brand’s London Fashion Week presentations and is bessies with Burberry’s leading lady of the moment – and everybody else’s for that matter – Cara Delevingne. Now Suki has bagged a fragrance campaign alongside Pixie Geldof’s swoon-worthy rocker boyfriend George Barnett of ‘These New Puritans’.

The pair have teamed up for the brand’s largest fragrance launch to date and star together in a series of steamy stills as well as a video filmed at one of Barnett’s live gigs. Burberry of course have a rich history of collaborating with musical artists, from inviting Tom Odell to perform the soundtrack to their Autumn Winter 2013 presentation to featuring One Night Only singer George Craig in campaigns alongside his now ex girlfriend Emma Watson.

Alongside Burberry Acoustic, which strives to celebrate emerging British music talent, Brit Rhythm, created and conceived by Burberry’s Chief Creative Officer Christopher Bailey, brings together fragrance and music in one seriously cool package. Burberry says that the fragrance “encapsulates the raw energy of music” and to celebrate the launch they’ll be hosting three gigs at unexpected venues in London, New York and Singapore this October.

As part of the social campaign fans and followers can sign up for temporary ‘tattoos’ in the shape of the signature studded leather jacket-inspired Brit Rhythm bottle at Burberry.com and simultaneously earn a place in a prize draw for the chance to win an ‘Access All Areas’ pass and trip to one of the three gigs.

Sounds good to us – especially if Suki and her current fella Bradley Cooper are in the audience too!
