Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because we’re diving headfirst into the quest for that elusive Hailey Bieber glow. Yes, *that* Hailey Bieber, the one who makes “effortless” look like a full-time job (and probably pays someone to ensure it does). We’re talking about how to get skin so radiant, it could single-handedly power a small city. No pressure.
First things first, let’s acknowledge the obvious: genetics. Hailey won the genetic lottery, but fear not, mere mortals! We can still fake it ’til we make it (or at least until we can afford a full-time team of estheticians). The good news is, Mrs. Bieber herself has dropped enough breadcrumbs to keep us busy—and hopefully dewy—for the foreseeable future.
Hailey’s Holy Trinity: Workout, Skincare, Makeup
According to my extensive research (read: a week spent combing through Vogue Beauty Secrets videos and Instagram posts), achieving Hailey-level radiance boils down to three key components:
- Workout Routines: Apparently, supermodels do more than just look good lounging by the pool. Hailey’s a fan of workout classes, which means you don’t need a fancy personal trainer to get started.
- Skincare Routine: Enter Rhode Skin. Her skincare line emphasizes hydrated barriers and that coveted “glazed donut” look.
- Favorite Makeup Products: Turns out, you don’t need a ton of makeup when your skin is already glowing.
Step 1: Sweat It Out (But Make It Chic)
Hailey’s not hitting the gym to become a bodybuilder; she’s all about that elongated, strengthened muscle look. Pilates is her jam. As she tells E!, “I used to be a dancer, so I love Pilates because it really elongates and strengthens my muscles… I also recently started to box for some cardio…”.
Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Pilates? Those machines look like medieval torture devices!” And you’re not entirely wrong. I went to a pilates class and the shakes were so real, I thought I might vibrate into another dimension. But hey, if it’s good enough for Hailey (and Glen Powell, Jake Shane, and Tate McRae, apparently), it’s worth a shot. Plus, all that stretching is fantastic for those of us whose joints creak louder than a haunted house door.
Step 2: The Rhode to Radiance (Skincare Secrets)
Ah, yes, rhode skin. The brand that launched a thousand “glazed donut” dreams. Hailey is a skincare mogul, emphasizing the importance of extremely hydrated barriers. If you haven’t heard of it, you’re probably living under a rock—a dry, dehydrated rock.
Her routine, which I followed with the precision of a brain surgeon, goes something like this: cleanser, then apply a hydrating essence to damp skin, follow with 3-4 pumps of a hydrating serum, and finish with a moisturizer. But here’s where it gets interesting: she mixes the Glazing Milk with a liquid highlighter for the ultimate glow. It’s like a secret weapon against dullness. According to Hailey, less is more so you just need to have a few products that you know work for you, and that are great at hydrating with simple, effective ingredients.
Pro-Tip: Apply the Peptide Glazing Fluid under the eyes and use reusable Dieux under eye masks for extra hydration and brightening. If you are like me and literally just got these masks, this felt like it was directed at me.
Step 3: Makeup That Enhances, Not Masks
Since Hailey’s skin is already practically perfect, she doesn’t need a full-coverage foundation. In her Vogue Date Night Skin Care & Makeup Routine video, she mixes her Peptide Glazing Fluid with a few pumps of the Chanel Vitalumiere Radiant Foundation and taps it into her skin with her hands. I tried this, and while it felt a little weird at first, the results were undeniable.
Her makeup routine plays up on natural beauty. For a few Hailey Bieber-approved products, you can watch her videos. Trust me, it’s worth it.
The Bieber Breakdown: Key Takeaways
- Be Gentle: “Treat it like baby skin. You need to stay gentle before working your way up to stronger products, should you wish to.”
- Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate: “One of the biggest misconceptions I’ve noticed is that people think that if they have oily skin, they don’t need to moisturize. Hydrating your skin is essential—everyone needs it. It’s about finding the products that work for your skin type.”
- Find What Works for YOU: “Your skin is a reflection of how you feel inside. And listening to your body to know what it likes and doesn’t like is vital… As long as you find a routine that works for you and makes you happy, your skin will end up reflecting all of the goodness within yourself.”
- Introduce a Good Peptide: “The Peptide Lip Treatmentis a constant go-to that I can easily put in my bag or pocket. OurPeptide Glazing Fluidis versatile because I can mix it in with my foundation, as well as use it as a bit more of a highlighter for a skin finish both morning and night. Recently, ourBarrier Restore Creamhas been ideal for the changing weather—it’s the perfect, balanced cream that plays well with all of the other products that I use.”
So, there you have it: the (not-so) secret formula to getting skin like Hailey Bieber. It’s a combination of consistent workouts, a hydrating skincare routine, and a makeup philosophy that celebrates natural beauty. Will you wake up tomorrow looking like you just stepped off a Versace campaign? Maybe not. But with a little effort (and a lot of rhode skin), you’ll be well on your way to achieving that coveted glazed donut glow. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to book another pilates class. Wish me luck!
