Seven Of The Best Model-Approved Beauty Buys

Most models have it down pat when it comes to beauty – a life surrounded by the industry’s best is sure to soak in. Over the years, we’ve chatted with a slew of models who happily spill everything they know, including what they opt to use on themselves, off-duty. Here’s a round up of our favourite model-worthy picks worth investing in.

ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY FOR MODELCO

The organic coconut oil concealer

MIRANDA IS A FAN OF ORGANIC BEAUTY

With arguably the most coveted of complexions and shiniest of hair, Miranda’s beauty repertoire is an organic force to be reckoned with. In our exclusive shoot and interview with the supermodel, she revealed to Beauticate her love of organic beauty brand RMS. Her pick is the UN-cover Up.

RMS UN-COVER UP WILL BRIGHTEN EVEN THE DARKEST OF CIRCLES

The face-chiseling bronzer

ANJA HAS SPENT A WEALTH OF TIME TRYING DIFFERENT BEAUTY BRANDS

Anja’s creamy Polish complexion gets a sun-kissed flush from her favourite bronzer, Burberry Warm Glow Bronzer. She says she dusts it down the centre of her face to elongate it and make it look thinner.

PERFECT TO ADD A LITTLE WARMTH TO YOUR COMPLEXION OR MIMIC A HOLIDAY GLOW

The statement-making lipstick

WE LOVE THIS PHOTO FROM VOGUE OF COCO IN HER NURSERY

As we discovered in our interview with her, Coco is a new wave of supermodel – a self-starter and incredibly digitally savvy. She particularly impressed us when she announced she does her own makeup for events. Favouring bright lips and dramatic eyes to offset her fine features and glossy hair, Coco swears by MAC lipsticks in oranges, pinks and plums.

The Victoria’s Secret Angel Hair Tong

ROSIE IS NO STRANGER TO TIME WELL SPENT IN THE MAKEUP CHAIR

As the face of ModelCo Cosmetics, Rosie is a modern goddess and (blessedly) an open book when it comes to divulging her beauty secrets. So, the key to those cascading waves? The Sarah Potempa Beach Waver Pro. Rosie positions the hair tool among her “Favourite things in the world”. This unique curling wand will give you customised curls worthy of a Victoria’s Secret Angel ready to hit the runway. She also swears by ModelCo Tan Airbrush In A Can for that golden glow.

The portable eye and lip balm

JESS LOVES A DUO PRODUCT THAT SAVES TIME AND HANDBAG SPACE

Savvy New York-based model Jess Hart claims that on her off-duty days she’s fairly low maintenance. But that doesn’t mean going without a good eye and lip product. She swears by La Prairie’s glamorous Pret A Porter Eye & Lip Portable Perfector – with a light reflecting eye balm on one side and a pout protector on the other, it kills two birds with one beautiful stone.

LA PRAIRIE EYE AND LIP DUO IS THE ULTIMATE MULTI-TASKER

The cult skin elixir

ROBYN KNOWS THE BENEFITS OF A LUXE SKINCARE REGIME

Like many celebrities before her (Ms. Blanchett we’re talking to you), Robyn Lawley is a fan of Japanese skincare brand SK-II. She credits the brand’s Facial Treatment Essence as the secret behind her crystalline complexion. She also loves their treatment masks, but – despite being tempted – draws the line at wearing them on long haul flights.

The (all-natural) secret cellulite treatment

IT WOULD SEEM THAT NOT EVEN MODELS ARE IMMUNE TO SOFT SPOTS

Another refreshingly low-maintenance Manhattan-based Aussie model is Elyse Taylor. The new mum has found the perfect organic antidote to stretch marks and cellulite – Weleda Birch Cellulite Oil. As she says, “Everyone has a bit of a cellulite.” Even models, it seems.
