Danniella Westbrook underwent a glamorous makeover earlier this week, which she suggested had left her feeling as though she had turned into "someone [she] likes again".
The actor, 48 - best known for her role as Sam Mitchell on EastEnders - took to Instagram yesterday to share a photo of herself after having undergone the recent makeover.
It showed her wearing a blue wrap dress and posing in a kitchen, sporting heavy eye makeup and nude lipstick. She had her makeup and hair done by her pal Zoe James.
She had opted for a different hairstyle than usual, having ditched the short locks that she has sported in recent years in favour of longer, wavy hair as part of the makeover.
Danniella shared the photo on her account yesterday and thanked makeup artist Zoe in the caption. The post has since amassed more than 3,000 likes from fans.
Zoe - who has worked with other celebrities including Katie Price over the course of her career - shared photos of Danniella on her own account following the makeover.
She wrote: "Always lovely glamming [Danniella]". The makeup artist further commented in the caption a post this week: "[She is] so down to earth and always have a laugh".

In response, client Danniella took to the comments section of the post to express her gratitude. She wrote: "Thank you for turning me into someone I like again".
Danniella appeared to like the photo so much that she has even now made it her latest profile photo on Instagram.
And the makeover prompted compliments from others on social media, with one person writing: "You look fantastic". Whilst another said: "Wow absolutely incredible."
"You look amazing," said a third person in response to one of the photos on the platform recently. Others instead described the actor as "stunning" and "beautiful".
And it isn't likely to be the only transformation that Danniella will be undergoing at the moment, as she will soon become the Fairy Godmother for a Christmas pantomime.
She has been announced as part of the cast for the adult pantomime Sinderfella, marking her first acting role in six years. She will appear for one night only on December 12.
