The 27-year-old model revealed she treats beauty like an "art project" and that when she applies her make-up, her face is "like [her] own personal canvas".

Emily - who is married to Sebastian Bear-McClard - said: "I think my love of beauty comes from going to art school and my dad being a painter. My husband calls it 'finger-painting'.

"When I do my make-up. It's like my own personal canvas. Similarly, when I post a selfie on Instagram, it's me taking a character and curating her life.

"I treat it like an art project; it's a different person every day. There's always a narrative behind beauty."

The brunette beauty went on to admit that the "most excessive thing" about her is her love of wigs.

Emily explained that wearing a wig is "like throwing on a hat" to her.

She told Glamour: "Wearing wigs is the most excessive thing about me. Luckily, my hair stylist [Jennifer Yepez] has a great collection.

"I love my natural hair, but there are only so many things you can do with it. Wearing a wig is like throwing on a hat."

Emily added that she's "obsessed" with the Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm, saying she puts it "everywhere" and that it's the only product she'll sleep in.

She said: "I'm obsessed with Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm, which is a really thick moisturiser.

"I put it everywhere, especially when I'm flying as it's the only thing that will seep in. And I put it under my eyes at night. It's God's gift to earth."
