The Expert Edit: Fleur East’s favourite beauty and fitness buys

As she launches her first piece of fitness kit, the singer and PT tells us about her favourite buys - from budget lashes to high-end trainers and the perfect eyeliner that costs less than your lunch

Fleur East - singer, Level 2 Qualified PT, makeup obsessive and now fitness entrepreneur - has just put me through a blistering workout. There's a lot of sweat in the room the after half an hour of weighted squats, Russian twists, burpees and lunges all with her new W8 Gym (pronounced ‘Weight Gym’), an ingenious multi-gym-in-a-box.

Not everyone has the time/confidence/inclination/cash for a gym membership or personal trainer and the idea is that W8 Gym, which she designed with her fitness aficionado cousins Nick and Clive, steps in to fill the gap. Fleur has put together two 30-minute home workout videos here to show you how to use it. We get to test a fair amount of fitness kit at GTG and have seen some pretty average offerings but the W8 Gym definitely delivers (you can read about how she came to create it, why she became vegan and her obsession with Netflix and HIIT when she spoke to us earlier this year here).

Despite all the jumping around, Fleur's makeup hasn't budged an inch and that's thanks to her makeup artist sister Keshia East, who is with us and who always does Fleur's makeup. Today, we're talking sweat-proof brow colour, the perfect bouncy afro and hold-you-in fitness wear. “It doesn’t matter if it’s high street or high end, so long as it works,” says Fleur.

“It’s all about Fenty Beauty right now - more than 40 shades. Rihanna wasn’t the first to do 40 shades but she was the first to do them with different undertones. I always struggle to find a match for my skin. Before I found this, Keshia always had to mix foundations for me because I have a yellowy red undertone.”
