I'm Always Amazed by Alexa Chung's Makeup—9 Products I've Noticed Her Using
Alexa Chung epitomizes the it-girl. Whenever I seek fashion inspiration, I can count on a glance at her Instagram to spark ideas. Her outfits exude a blend of simplicity and sophistication, a sentiment that extends to her beauty looks as well. It's clear that Alexa has perfected the art of achieving glowing skin and effortlessly tousled waves, but what truly captivates me is her laid-back approach to makeup. Whether I'm envisioning her soft, smoky eye or flawless pink lipstick, I can confidently say that if I could peek into any celebrity's makeup bag, it would definitely be Alexa's.
As a beauty editor, I’m fortunate to have access to information about Alexa's favorite makeup artists, and I've spent the last few days browsing their Instagram profiles to discover the products behind some of her most stunning makeup moments. Below, I've compiled nine makeup must-haves, including foundation, eyeshadow palettes, mascara, and more, all personally used by Alexa Chung. I don't know about you, but I’m definitely adding these items to my shopping list right away.
**Alexa Chung's Go-To Makeup Products**
1. **Armani Luminous Silk Foundation**
Celebrity makeup artist Zoë Taylor revealed that this is the foundation applied to Alexa before her appearance at Wimbledon, and it's no surprise. Armani's Luminous Silk Foundation is a go-to for a hydrating, radiant finish. Analyzing Alexa's naturally luminous makeup looks, it's easy to see why she loves it.
2. **Tower 28 Swipe Serum Concealer**
Taylor has also frequently used this Tower 28 concealer on Alexa. Its serum-like formula offers medium coverage and a second-skin effect, as suggested by its name.
3. **Carolina Herrera The Foundation Brush**
Curious about the tools Alexa's makeup artists use to achieve her radiant base? In a photo shared by celeb makeup artist Wendy Rowe, I noticed this Carolina Herrera foundation brush. It's not only chic in appearance but also seamlessly blends liquid products onto the skin.
4. **Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream**
For a subtle, sun-kissed glow, Chanel's iconic cream bronzer is an excellent choice. Honestly, I haven’t met a makeup artist, celebrity, or beauty editor who doesn’t have this in their kit, and if it works for Alexa, it’s certainly good enough for me.
5. **Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush in Happy**
6. **Victoria Beckham Beauty Eye Wardrobe in Night Flash**
Now onto the eyes. Alexa Chung confidently sports a sultry smoky eye, which has become one of her hallmark styles. Though her makeup artists have experimented with various eyeshadow palettes, a recent favorite is the Victoria Beckham Beauty Eye Wardrobe in Night Flash. With four shades, including a shimmery grey and a rich black, recreating Alexa's smoky eye has never been easier.
7. **Lisa Eldridge Seamless Glide Eye Pencil in Ground Coffee**
I was thrilled to hear that Alexa Chung has been named the first brand ambassador for Lisa Eldridge Beauty, as it appears her makeup artists have been using Lisa Eldridge products for quite some time. To add a touch of brown to Alexa's eye looks, Taylor favors the Lisa Eldridge eye pencil in Ground Coffee. With its gel formula and smooth application, it’s perfect for polishing off a smoky eye.
8. **Stila Huge Extreme Lash Mascara**
I've seen Alexa sporting Stila's Huge Extreme Lash Mascara on Instagram, a lengthening formula that provides volume and curl as well. For an extra indulgent option, she is also known to prefer Chanel Le Volume Noir Mascara.
9. **Carolina Herrera Nude Couture Blur Matte Lipstick**
A look at Alexa Chung's past makeup styles quickly reveals her love for nude lips. While Rowe hasn’t disclosed the exact shades she uses on Alexa, it's been noted that she often reaches for a nude Carolina Herrera lipstick very similar to the one pictured above.
