Emma Stone relaxes by walking along a river.

The 'Easy A' actress - who is believed to be dating British hunk Andrew Garfield - admits she loves going back to her native New York because it means she can truly go back to being herself with a stroll.

She said: ''After a long time in Los Angeles, it's great to be back in New York City. I love the seasons. I've been on lots of walks by the river - it really relaxes.''

However relaxed Emma is, she never leaves home without her make-up on, and is a particular fan of lipstick and mascara to complete her look.

She told InStyle magazine: ''I don't leave home unless I'm wearing mascara, as I'm a natural blonde and my lashes are light.

''I love the instant glamour of red lipstick, though I'll often forget to reapply it and end up with a thin red line around my lips at the end of the night!''
