The greatest advice you can receive on makeup, skincare and hair comes from those who are experts in the game. Or rather, people who somehow always look amazing, no matter what time of day it is. How dare they look that good, all the time?
Well, VALLEY is here to compile a list of some of the most helpful tips that very well might change up your makeup, skin and hair game, coming from Vogue’s YouTube series that details our favorite celebrities’ most beloved products and techniques. It’s a secret no more.
1. Phoebe Dynevor’s Vitamin C Serum
THE Daphne Bridgerton herself has revealed her favorite product to achieve a soft, glowy base under her makeup or on bare skin alone.
That product is Sunday Riley’s C.E.O. Vitamin C Brightening Serum, which you can purchase the full size at Sephora for $85. The serum includes 15% Vitamin C, which brightens dull skin and evens the skin tone by targeting pigmentation, dark spots and acne scars. It can be used for oily, dry or normal skin— a win for all! The actress’s skin certainly looks radiant after applying the serum.

2. Sydney Sweeney’s Sunscreen
You might be tired of hearing this but always wear your sunscreen (pretty please). It is so important to protect your skin from harsh UV rays that can damage the skin prematurely. You will thank us and yourself.
Sydney Sweeney’s go-to sunscreen is the EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 sunscreen, available to purchase at the Dermstore for $39, and it is suitable for all skin types. Investing in a high-quality and reputable sunscreen will save a lot of damage in the long run, and there is no denying that Sydney Sweeney has enviable skin.

3. Maude Apatow’s Blush
Another Euphoria actress has graced us with the NARS liquid blush, and you can purchase it at Sephora for $30.
It comes in three beautiful shades, which are all-natural and have a shimmer finish for that sought-after glow. Blush is a staple piece in many makeup looks as it elevates the face and adds some much-needed color back to the face. The NARS blush has a creamy, thin consistency that you can build up, so it won’t look cakey on the face, providing a natural shine. Plus, a little goes a long way with liquid blush so that bottle will probably last you months, if not longer.

4. Shay Mitchell’s Skin Routine
The actress’s video itself is one of the longest of the series as she makes her skin look absolutely flawless. VALLEY can’t even begin to name them all, so here are a few staples.
She starts with the ESARORA Ice Roller from Amazon ($18.99), which de-puffs the face. This is essential after a night out. Mitchell uses various masks, but VALLEY likes the Honest Reusable Magic Silicone Sheet Mask (available at Honest for $14.99) as it instantly hydrates the face and you can use it more than once!
Our last contender is the Kiehl’s Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado. You can buy it from Saks Fifth Avenue for $55 for the full size. This eye cream moisturizers under eyes for seamless concealer application.

5. Kaia Gerber’s Foundation
The model recommends using the Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat All-In-One Glow Hydrating Makeup, a type of tinted moisturizer. You can purchase it at Saks Fifth Avenue for $48. A tinted moisturizer is key for when you don’t feel like putting on heavy foundation but still want coverage. This one in particular makes the skin glow, and it absorbs flawlessly into the skin. It truly gives the skin a light sheen as if you have been basking in the sun all day.
If Kaia Gerber loves it as much as she does, then it is definitely worth a purchase!

6. Lila Moss’s Contour
For all those who have rounder faces, watch model Lila Moss elevate her contour for her suitable face structure. She uses the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand, available at Sephora for $40.
She puts two dots on a bit below her cheekbone and three dots on the top of her forehead, one in the middle and on her temples. She blends it out by dotting it in the place she put it, and it creates a bronzed look while adding the illusion of a soft contour on her cheekbones and forehead. It looks natural and soft as if the model woke up like that. She didn’t of course, but it elevates the face without looking muddy or overpowering.

7. Emmy Rossum’s Power Brows
The actress has some serious envious eyebrows that she has allowed us, peasants, to watch how she achieves those brows. She uses the Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil (available at Ulta for $37) and the Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel (available at Macy’s for $22).
Emmy brushes her eyebrows in an upward motion and fills the little gaps with the pencil, making them appear fuller. She lightly fills them, focusing on the tail of her eyebrow. She sets the eyebrows with the brow gel to keep them in place. The feathery eyebrows compliment her face beautifully, and it is definitely worth a try if you want to switch up your eyebrow routine!

8. Kali Uchis’s Lip Combo
The singer has perfected a soft ’90s glam, and her lip combo is a must-try. Kali uses the MAC Lip Pencil in the shade Whirl (available at Ulta for $21), putting extra emphasis on her Cupid’s bow. For her lipstick, she uses the MAC Satin Lipstick in the shade Retro (available at MAC for $21). To top it off, she uses the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer in the shade Fenty Glow, available to buy at Fenty Beauty for $20.
The brown hues and sparkles on her lips truly reminisce of an iconic and nostalgic era.

9. Nathalie Emmanuel’s Curly Hair
The “Game of Thrones” star has some gorgeous, shiny hair that really makes one ponder who she maintains her curls so well. Luckily for us, she revealed her favorite products.
Those products include an oil, which is the Primal Beauty Jamaican Black Castor Oil, available to buy from Bigamart for $38.99. She applies the oil to fully wet hair, focusing in on the scalp. She then uses the Ten Pro leave-in-conditioner by Jim + Henry, retailing for £45.50.

10. Cassie’s Smokey Eye
VALLEY’s last favorite secret comes from R&B Singer Cassie, who has shared how she achieves her smokey eye that will always be timeless.
First, the singer outlines her top and bottom waterline heavily with the Chanel Le Crayon Khôl in the shade 61 Noir, available at Chanel for $32. Cassie takes the same pencil and spreads it across her eyelids and blends it out with her fingers and an eyeshadow brush, creating that smokey effect just perfectly. This is quick, easy and a guarantee that it will spice up your look a little more.
