A first class Emirates flight attendant says cabin crew store secrets of VIP customers on a special tablet -- and she reveals the specific nail and lip colours required to work for the airline

Emirates' cabin crew are among the most glamorous in the sky. Their pristine appearance — be it the signature red hat and matching lip, the bright smile, or the perfect flicky eyeliner — is all bound to make a passenger feel like they're in good hands.

And according to a first class flight attendant for the airline, you'll have to do a fair bit to get there, and abide by a series of strict rules — from wearing an exact shade of eye shadow to the style of your bun.

Joanna Collins, a Dubai-based Brit who has climbed through the Emirates ranks and now works in the first class cabin, told Town & Country magazine that to progress to premium class, there's a "rigorous" training process you'll have to get through first.
