To give Jodie Comer’s already glowy skin a boost – a good night’s sleep, plenty of water and a couple of glasses of champagne are also the actor’s pre-awards show basics – Babsky always gives her a facial massage. Noble Panacea’s The Brilliant collection – radiance-enhancing, science-based formulations from Nobel Laureate Sir Fraser Stoddart – has become a non-negotiable skin primer for the star, particularly the Prime Radiance Serum, which is a lighter alternative to the Radiant Resilience Moisturiser that’s perfect for the hot summer weather. “I feel in such safe hands with Alex,” says Comer, whose final mood-setter is always a Talking Heads playlist.

The 28-year-old talent was introduced to Noble Panacea – which cuts through the beauty industry noise owing to Stoddart’s ultra-smart Organic Super Molecular Vessel Technology – prior to the pandemic, and she has not looked back since. Having a skincare routine helped to bring structure to her “upside down” days during lockdown when, like the rest of us, she was eating chocolate at 10am and generally feeling out of sync. “When I look back at younger Jodie, the money I spent on make-up products… Now if I’m looking after my skin I don’t necessarily have to worry about that too much,” she shares.
