Have you ever wondered how your favorite celebrities maintain their flawless looks on and off screen? Celebrities might have millions or billions of dollars, but most of them use beauty products that any regular person can buy. Some of the best beauty products are the ones that anyone can use and don’t cost hundreds of dollars.
Not everyone will share their secret to flawless-looking skin, but there are a few celebrities who chose to reveal their secret to their fans on Instagram. They posted their go-to beauty products they use pretty much every day. If you want flawless skin and makeup like them, scroll down to see what products they use.
From Kylie Jenner to Katherine Heigl, here are 10 celebrities who revealed their favorite beauty products.
10 Gwyneth Paltrow
Gwyneth is known for her passion for health and fitness. All of her beauty products reflect that. According to People, “In addition to being stocked with all her Goop skincare goodies, the wellness guru's minimal medicine cabinet contains plenty of other ‘non-toxic and clean’ essentials.” Some of the products she uses are the Vintner's Daughter Active Botanical Serum, Harklinikken Hair Extract, OLAS Mouthwash, Jao Goe Oil Body Oil and Kosas Kosasport Lip Balm. But she uses Goop beauty products the most.
9 Blake Lively
Blake had so much makeup that one day she decided to clean out her cabinet and only keep the essentials she uses all the time. These are the products she uses pretty much every day: Charlotte Tilbury's glow-boosting face primer, Caudalie's Beauty Elixir, Stila's cream blush, Urban Decay lip liner, La Mer lip balm, Christian Louboutin lipstick, Dior mascara, and Marc Jacobs Beauty highlighter. She even kept a Burt's Bees lip balm—which can be found in any regular person’s medicine cabinet.
8 Kylie Jenner
Kylie has her own makeup brand, so it’s not shocking that she uses at least some of her Kylie Cosmetics and KKW Beauty products. She mostly uses the KKW Beauty Contour Palette, KKW Beauty Baking Powders, and Kylie Cosmetics Burgundy Extended Palette. She loves products from other brands too. According to People, “Kylie appears to use a combination of the Beautyblender Bounce Foundation and Too Faced Born This Way Foundation as her base. She also gravitates towards the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette and holds onto her makeup artist Hrush Achemyan's Tarte palette (which was a limited edition launch a few years ago).”
7 Serena Williams
Not only does Serena love tennis—she also loves makeup. “The self-proclaimed beauty junkie, who tells Into the Gloss she's obsessed with Sephora, swears by face masks (like MZ Skincare's gold undereye masks) and Chenot skincare, which she discovered while on vacation in Italy,” according to People. She buys all of her makeup from Sephora and loves all of their brands, including Nars for concealer, Anastasia Beverly Hills for her brows, and Huda Beauty for lip products. It’s no wonder why the famous tennis player always looks flawless even when she’s in the middle of a game.
6 Katherine Heigl
Katherine discovered Eminence skincare almost a decade ago and hasn’t stopped using it since. The products have given her glowing skin for years, so she’s never wanted to switch to anything else for her skincare routine. She said on her blog, "The line isn’t cheap, but it is well worth it since the products really do what they advertise." Her skincare routine includes the Clear Skin Probiotic Cleanser, Bright Skin Licorice Root Booster, Bamboo Firming Fluid, Bright Skin Moisturizer and Bearberry Eye Repair cream. Besides Eminence products, she loves the Fenty Beauty's shimmer stick, IT Cosmetics pressed powder, and Anastasia Beverly Hills' brow pencil for her makeup routine.
5 Lea Michele
Lea always looks amazing when she’s performing music on stage and starring in a movie or TV show. She revealed her secret to constantly looking good on Instagram. According to People, “Lea's pre-performance beauty essentials include an Artis brush and beautyblender to apply her makeup, the Stila Convertible Color Dual Lip & Cheek Palette for a pop of color, a Wander Beauty dual-sided bronzer and illuminator and her trustee Beachwaver curling iron.”
4 Kim Kardashian West
Just like her sister, Kylie Jenner, Kim has her own beauty line. Although she’s a huge celebrity and businesswoman, she keeps her makeup like any ordinary person—in a cluttered drawer. She showed a picture of her messy drawer of beauty products on Instagram. According to People, “Her makeup stash features her iconic KKW Beauty Creme Contour and Highlighter kit and if you look closely there seems to be what looks like a new addition to her line: a KKW Beauty dual-sided powder brush (middle right).” It looks like she also uses Tarte Shape Tape Concealer, Kylie Cosmetics Kylighters, Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Matte Bronzer, Kylie Cosmetics Take Me on Vacation KyShadow, Anastasia Beverly Hills Hydrating Oil, Guerlain Orchidée Impériale The Longevity Concentrate, Lancer Contour Décolleté, and more.
3 Ashley Tisdale
Ashley is another famous celebrity who decided to create her own beauty line. She uses a huge variety of products though. According to People, “The star shared a peek at what she keeps stocked on her vanity (spoiler, it's a lot of blushes): Illuminate by Ashley Tisdale cream blushes and powder highlighters, multiple blushes by NARS, the Too Faced Love Flush blush in I Will Always Love You, Anastasia Beverly Hills' Modern Renaissance palette and concealer by the brand, Benefit's Hoola bronzer, Urban Decay's Naked Illuminated Powder, Tatcha's Luminous Dewy Skin Mist and plenty more.”
2 Drew Barrymore
Drew has starred in countless movies since she was a little girl, but the past few years she’s become a huge makeup lover and been in a lot of beauty commercials. According to People, “As a self-proclaimed ‘beauty junkie,’ we're not surprised to see the Flower Beauty founder's bathroom cabinet overflowing with products. A few standouts: the M-61 Power Glow Peel Pads, GlamGlow's Thirstymud Hydrating Treatment, Nivea Moisturizing Créme, SKII's Facial Treatment Essence and Cetaphil cleanser.”
1 Mindy Kaling
Mindy is a huge celebrity who’s starred in many TV shows and movies, including The Mindy Project, The Office, and Inside Out. With her busy acting schedule, she needs products that last all day and she revealed her go-to products on Instagram. According to People, “As a jet-setting celeb, Kaling has got her packing down to a science: She carries her beauty essentials in adorably labeled tiny, travel-size tubes. Some of her faves? Dermalogica Precleanse Oil, Neocurtis Eye Care and the don't-go-anywhere-without-it Elta MD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46.”
