Bree Turner’s recent interview with Yahoo! Beauty

The best beauty advice she ever got was: “Keep your face out of the sun.”

And the worst: “Shave the hair above your lip with a straight razor instead of wax.”

The advice she wants to impart on her kids is: “People are attractive when they are living in their truth and authenticity. When they find what makes them unique and they love about themselves and rock out with it. Freckles? Curly hair? Long legs? Juicy booty? Hairy chest? Whatever makes you feel powerful, embrace it.”

She feels the most beautiful when: “I’m in nature. And hopefully my skin is also clear.”

What she’ll miss the most about Grimm: “What a gift to never have to worry about being naked on screen! Rosalee’s idea of sex appeal was a baggy boyfriend jean and a shapeless Pendleton cardigan. My kind of gal. We always tried to infuse at least one natural element into her wardrobe. The character was effortless in her style. Organic and fluid. Never restricted. A solid pair of Danner boots finished the look. One never knows when you need to run full speed in the woods towards danger.”

The one beauty product she can’t live without: “Bronzer.”

Bree Turner’s recent interview with Yahoo! Beauty

I actually knew someone who was in the pilot episode of Grimm. (the girl’s grandfather-the person playing him was mark Lewis, a storyteller who sadly Is dead now.)

That’s so cool that you knew him! And so sad that he’s passed.

From his Wikipedia page:

Mark Lewis (February 16, 1954 – December 7, 2014) was an American storyteller, actor, and teacher.

He began his storytelling career while a student at John Muir High School in Pasadena, California, winning regional drama competitions with his telling of “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” and “Jabberwocky”, two pieces that became staples of his professional storytelling repertory. In 1971, he formed a performing partnership with singer-songwriter-actor Craig Coulter, and together, as Coulter & Lewis, they developed an enthusiastic local following performing songs (some original), poetry, children’s stories, and skits.

Lewis was part of the Renaissance Pleasure Faires that took place in Agoura, California in the 1970s – 1990s, serving first as the black-hooded and silent Executioner. He later took on speaking roles that allowed him to share his storytelling gifts with Faire-goers. Lewis received two Emmy Awards for his show “Word Pictures” on WTTW in Chicago, and he had a syndicated radio show.

He was a featured performer on the TV series Northern Exposure on CBS and Leverage on TNT (as Santa/Jack in "The Ho Ho Ho Job”, 2012). Lewis was an illustrator and he wrote four books, among them Kaliban’s Christmas: A Special Tale of Magic (Puffin Books, 1987), The Secret of the Quilt (Book One of The Counterpane Collection) with illustrations by Laura Kelly (Laughing Moon Productions, 1992), and the ibook Anna and the Sun (Lulu.com, 2011).

Is Bitsie the lead female on the show?

I’m not really the right person to ask, Anon. I don’t write the actors’ contracts or sign their paychecks! She’s the first-billed of the women in the cast on the Grimm NBC website, IMDB, and the show’s Wikipedia page, but Grimm is really more of an ensemble show at this point and has been since season 2, so while David is indisputably the lead, it’s hard to say what order, if any, the rest of them fall into.

Fun fact, though: After David, the next person consistently billed on the cast list is Russell Hornsby!
