52 / WOMEN’S HEALTH JUNE 2019
- Leading Ladies
“I am very lucky to play both
Sansa and Jean. It’s so awesome
to walk on-set every day with
these empowered, headstrong
female characters. It makes me
feel like such a badass.”
- Power Roles
“Since Sansa wears very heavy
costumes, I have to work out.
Boxing is my go-to. Everyone
seems to think Jean is a physical
role, but I find myself more
exhausted after working on Game
of Thrones than I do after X-Men.
Jean is telekinetic, so she really
doesn’t have to do any stunts.”
- All About Eyes
“Normally, I don’t wear much
makeup, but if I do, I like playing
with eye shadow. I just bought
three new palettes, and Urban
Decay Heat is my favorite.”

- Family Recipe
“I love to cook a proper Sunday
mum. She is a great cook.”
She kicks major butt on-screen in Game of
Thrones and Dark Phoenix—and totally wins
the skin-care and wellness game IRL.

“I swear by the Wellaplex mask.
Once a week, I put it in, wear it
for 10 minutes, then wash it out.
It leaves my hair so healthy and
strong that I can literally dye it
whatever color I want.”

“I used to be low maintenance.
Then I went into a beauty
store...and now I have a full
skin-care routine. I use the hy-
drating rose toner from Fresh
and Ole Henriksen Truth Serum
every night. In the morning, I
always mix a Kiehl’s sunscreen
with my foundation regardless
of where I’m going.”

“Now that social media is so
prevalent, people value them-
selves based on how many likes
they get. My phone case says
‘Social media seriously harms
your mental health.’ I think it’s
important to follow people you
find inspiring. Charli Howard’s
Instagram is amazing. She pro-
motes body positivity, and it’s so
great for young girls to see that.” - On Keeping Kalm
“My favorite way to unwind is
with The Kardashians. After
working all day, my brain is
fried, and I just need some light
and funny entertainment.”
Mind Matters
“If I wasn’t acting, I think I’d be
a therapist. I read psychology-
based books, like The Psycho-
path Test and Them: Adventures
With Extremists, both by Jon
Ronson. He gets into the minds
of all these different people, and
I really love that.”3
