Trinette Faint with Elizabeth Hurley

Trinette Faint, 38, of Somerville, won the Harper’s Bazaar-Estee Lauder-sponsored Fabulous at Every Age contest last week.

Faint, who used to be Matt Damon’s personal assistant, is a photographer who also runs FaintServicesGroup.com, a personal assistance company catering to film stars in town for movie projects. The Estee Lauder-Bazaar honor came with a $10,000 cash prize, a bunch of Estee Lauder goodies, and the chance to meet actress Elizabeth Hurley, the face of Estee Lauder. Faint says she’ll use the cash to start a new hair care product company, LoveHue.com, which will launch after Thanksgiving.

Faint said, of meeting Hurley at the Bazaar party, “She was so nice. I was completely blown away by the level of sincerity of everyone in the room, not just her.’’
