Cheryl Cole is electrified with excitement for her red carpet evening at Cannes in this L'Oréal video.

Just before making a fiery entrance onto the red carpet at Cannes, Cheryl Cole took a minute to express her excitement... and share her beauty secrets with her fans!

Electric excitement!

Not only is the British beauty excited for her arrival at Cannes, she is excited to try out L'Oréal exclusive L'Or Electric line of make-up.

"It's new for me," said the singer known for taking (and loving!) risks.

Cheryl's vanity

Still, there are some of her old trusty favourites in her bag! According to Cheryl, she wouldn't be ready for this big event without her favourite beauty products.

As a spokesperson for L'Oréal, Cheryl's beauty must-haves are from this company.

In this short video, recorded just before her preparations for the red carpet begin, she lists her beauty essentials as Glam Shine lip gloss (which she happens to advertise), Elnett hair spray, eyeliner and Telescopic lash mascara.

The secret to Cheryl's big (and fabulous hair)

Cheryl is known for her big hair. Elnett is apparently a family secret! Cheryl says her grandmother used to wear it!

These favourites are clear in Cheryl's always glam look. Elnett must be her key to her fantastic, voluminous hair.

We wondered how it stays in place during even her sexiest dance moves!
