Helen Flanagan Meets 12 Year Old Charity Fund Raiser

Helen Flanagan met Kirsty Howard a 12 year old girl who was given just six weeks to live back in 1999 because of a rare heart condition.

Kirsty, however, has defied the doctors predictions and has also help raise an unbelievable £5 million to secure the future of the childrens' hospice which is a second home to her.

Kirsty is 13 this month and had an early treat when she met her favourite Coronation Street stars Helen Flanagan and Samia Smith on the soap's set in Manchester.

She had previously asked to have her hair cut like Rosie Webster and was able to show this off outside of Audrey's hair salon.

To help support Kirtsy and the hospice Francis House please go to The Kirsty Club for more information - thank you.

Helen Flanagan's Beauty Secrets

So what is Helen Flanagan's favourite perfume?

Helen told Fabulous magazine, "I love the Cacharel perfume Amor Amor. The smell reminds me of boys, house parties and being at school when everyone wore it."

She said about her hair:

"My naturally curly hair is damaged from using hair straighters and dyeing it black for the part of Rosie Webster. I use Aveda Damage Remedy Treatment which helps repair and re-moisturise it. It's a miracle worker."

And finally Helen's skin:

"I used to have severe acne. My doctor prescribed Accutane tablets and now my skin is completely clear. I love md formulations Facial Cleanser because I never get a spot when I use it."
