Celebrities, they’re just like us. Despite their flawless photos, they deal with acne, hyperpigmentation and the occasional split end. They just have access to great products and professionals that help keep them looking their best. So when they take time to share their routines with us mere mortals, we have to pay attention.
Actress, television personality and new mom Keke Palmer recently shared her hair, skincare and makeup routine with the folks at Vogue, and you better believe we were taking notes. From her cleanser to her concealer, check out some of Keke Palmer’s favorite products that keep her looking great. But it’s her secret to getting gorgeous naturally-looking curls that has everyone talking. Before we get to that, let’s start with how she gets that gorgeous glow.
Keke likes to start her routine with a clean palate, washing her face with Mela B3 Micro-Peeling gel, an anti-aging cleanser from La Roche Posay, followed by Paula’s Choice 2% BHA 2% BHA Liquid Salicylic Acid Exfoliant. Palmer says she keeps the exfoliant on rotation to help her clear up hyperpigmentation. After her cleansing routine, Palmer treats herself to a Vitamin C mask from Dr. Dennis Gross, a “fun” ritual she calls “very cutesy.”
How She To Get Beautiful Curls:
While the mask is masking, Palmer shared that a flexi rod set is her go-to natural hairstyle when she’s not wearing wigs or other protective styles.
“I think it took me a long time to get to the place of being able to really appreciate my hair and all its uniqueness and what it can do and only it can do,” she said in the video.
After her mask, Palmer separates her coils with a few pumps of Argon Oil Shine Mist from Creme of Nature on her hands. Then she uses a pick to give her cute curly fro a little volume. While we couldn’t get enough of Palmer’s curls, she says she prefers her hair on the second day.
“Honestly, as much as I love how this looks, I really love it when it’s like a day in,” she said.
Once the curls are poppin’, Palmer finishes off her face with a couple of spritzes of dermal water followed by a skin-hydrating regimen that includes Neutrogena Hydro Boost Serum, La Roche-Posay Double Repair Moisturizer and a little Aquaphor on the dry spots around her nose. The “Nope” actress finishes up with a little sun protection, courtesy of Winnie Harlow’s Cay Skin moisturizer.
Keke then gets into a quick, no-fuss makeup look, featuring Anastasia Brow Wiz, Nars Concealer, Charlotte Tilbury setting spray, Patrick Ta blush in She’s Giving and Huda Beauty Lipstick in Trendsetter. Before she heads out the door, she gives herself a spritz with Angels’ Share from Kilian.
Baby, this is Keke Palmer, and we love every bit of it!
