Richie says she does hair, but not makeup

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 7 (UPI) -- Nicole Richie says she goes to the experts for her makeup before she makes the scene in Hollywood.

The socialite told InStyle.com she carries a little eye concealer and mascara with her but relies on makeup artists to handle the rest of her maintenance.

"I actually don't know how to put on makeup," Richie said. "I have to get it done every time I want to wear makeup. I do not know how to wear it at all."

People magazine said Richie may be a little too modest about her skills at getting herself together. She confirmed she knows how to do her trademark hair just right.
