Olivia Munn has revealed that she suffers from a severe anxiety disorder that causes her to pull out her own eyelashes.

'The Newsroom' star told People at the L'Oreal Women in Digital Awards in New York that the disorder is called trichotillomania, and it started when she was 26.

She asserted that if she were to walk into someone's birthday party, she'd have a bad anxiety attack, which in turn causes her to start lash pulling.

To fix this problem, Munn told the publication that she has created her own little lash-band with individual lashes.

She added that she dabs her eyelids with a powder mix that helps the false lashes stick.
