Ashley Benson thinks starring on 'Pretty Little Liars' has made her "lazy" with her hair and make-up.

The 31-year-old actress played Hanna Marin on the show between 2010 and 2017, and she admits that it completely changed her approach towards wearing make-up.
She told Us Weekly: "It made me not care so much - which is very weird to say. Unless I’m working, I try not to do anything to my hair or my face. It made me not want to do any of that on my off time.
"It made me very lazy."
Ashley is now determined to own her "inner beauty", rather than allowing herself to be compared to other celebrities.
She explained to Stylish: "I’ve been very outspoken about [being photoshopped], because it doesn’t look like you - and especially now with social media and all these filters and plastic surgery.
"[I have] nothing against any of that - what’s best for you is best for you. But, being natural, embracing your own inner beauty and not having to compare yourself to others is really important."
Earlier this year, meanwhile, Ashley admitted she needed a "mental break" when 'Pretty Little Liars' ended.
The actress revealed she needed to take a step back from the spotlight when the show finished.
She said: "Coming off a show after so long and doing TV continuously throughout my whole life ... I needed to take a mental break."
Ashley had filmed 160 episodes across seven seasons when the show ended and she's now glad that she decided to take a break from the industry.
She shared: "It was the best thing I ever did.
"I didn’t work for a year and studied directors I wanted to work with and looked at actresses who inspired me, who came from TV and made it into film. I started to compartmentalise my wants and needs."
