Burlesque star Dita Von Teese says she needs around 300 products to achieve her glamorous look.

The 40-year-old said that she is such a beauty junkie that she can't live without any of the multiple cosmetics and haircare products which she uses to achieve her glamorous retro look, reported Contactmusic.

Asked what her three must-have items are, she said, "Three? Oh my god, it's more like 300! If you only knew, I have a lot of things that I absolutely can't do without. Even for my shows, I do everything by myself, from make-up to choosing my own outfits."

However, the sultry star believes make-up can only go so far and the only way to exude sex appeal is to have confidence in yourself.
 

"For me, sex appeal is a very individual thing, it's about finding yourself above all and mostly about having self-confidence. We have to find what suits us and makes us feel good," said Von Teese.

"It's all about being sexy, it's nothing to do with what people think - on the contrary. It's completely psychological. I love the process of getting ready, both in terms of hair as well as make-up. With only three things, I'd have a lot of trouble getting ready," she added.
