Songstress Pixie Lott has confessed that she usually forgets to remove make-up before going to bed and can't seem to break the bad habit.

Speaking about her bad cosmetics habits, Lott explained: "I often sleep in my make-up and wake up with crusty mascara over my face."

Lott went on to admit that despite often forgetting to remove her make-up after nights out, it rarely takes her long to get ready as she has perfected her look so that it only takes minutes:

"I'm quite good at not spending too long [getting ready for a night out]. If I only have five minutes, I'll quickly spritz some Batiste Dry Shampoo to add volume, apply some cream blusher and do a quick eyeliner flick. Mind you, I am always late for everything. It's one of my worst habits."

She then added to Heat magazine that she doesn't use fake tan anymore as she catches the sun naturally, but joked that her record label asked her not to get too tanned for her new album's cover shoot: "I haven't fake tanned since I was 15, as I tan quite well naturally. In fact, my record label had a go at me when I was on holiday last year, as I had to shoot my new album cover when I got back and they didn't want me looking too tanned."
