Richard Madden isnโt fazed by going grey.
The โEternalsโ star is known for his distinctive silver streak and has insisted his โvanity doesnโt extend to the greynessโ of his locks.
He said: โEvery time Iโve been in a role for six or eight months, I get to see where my own hair is at the end of it. Usually, I get a little surprise of a few extra greys. Thatโs only going to continue, but I donโt mind.โ
When it comes to skincare, the 35-year-old actor insisted the most important product is sun lotion.
He said: โOften if Iโm filming outside, Iโm going to get sunburned.
โIโm a big advocate for making sure everyone wears sunscreen every day.โ
The โRocketmanโ star keeps his beauty routine simple, prioritising moisturiser and face wash.
He told Haute Living: โJust use a good face wash and moisturise, get your sunscreen on, and put on fragrance in the morning. In the evening before you go out, you get another couple of scooches of your aftershave, and before bed just wash your face.โ
Richard recently became the new face of Calvin Kleinโs Defy fragrance.
The โGame of Thronesโ star followed in the footsteps of the likes of Jake Gyllenhaal and Kate Moss by starring in one of the luxury brandโs campaigns.
Speaking about the gig, he said: โIโve always been a fan of Calvin Klein and having the opportunity to partner with the brand on the launch of their new fragrance, Calvin Klein Defy, has been an exciting adventure.โ
Richard was named GQโs Most Stylish Man at the 2019 GQ Men of the Year awards, but itโs not an accolade he believes he deserved.
While he was grateful for the honour, he insisted his stylist should take the credit for dressing him in fashionable clothes.
Speaking on stage after being handed the award, Richard said: โMy friends will find it most amusing that Iโve won this award, one I donโt really think that I deserve. Actors mostly spend their lives wearing other peopleโs clothes, and so it really is other people who should take the credit for this tonight.
โSo thank you very much to Hugo Boss for this gorgeous tux, and thank you very much to Gareth Scarfield, my stylist, who finds many ideal ways to cloak all of my insecurities. Thank you, Gareth.โ
