For someone as glam as Blake Lively, spring cleaning means purging your makeup drawer. The actress did just that recently and used the clean-out as an opportunity to share her favorite beauty products with fans via Instagram Story.
Lively’s collection includes a mix of red-carpet classics (like Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Lips Liquid Lipstick) and prestige pieces (like Diorshow Mascara). But a few drugstore buys were also nestled in her collection. When it comes to her skin, Lively almost certainly has a celebrity dermatologist, a regular facialist, and the occasional team of air-brushers. But for the most important product in anyone’s skin-care routine—sunscreen—she spends only $15 at her local drugstore.
Lively’s go-to sun protection is CeraVe Sunscreen Face Lotion SPF 50 with Zinc Oxide, a best-selling simple formula that works well for daily use.
For her lips, Lively shared that one of her go-to lipsticks is Christian Louboutin Velvet Matte Lip Colour, one of the most expensive in the world at $90. But before she layers on a few dollars worth of color, she preps with classic Burt’s Bees lip balm.
While there’s nothing more relatable than scattered lip balms rolling around a makeup drawer, Lively also shared a couple of more indulgent skin care picks. She’s a fan of By Terry Cellularose Brightening CC Lumi-Serum ($91) and Darphin Environmental Lightweight Shield ($48).
Whether you go prestige or grab whatever’s cheapest at the drugstore, let’s take two lessons from Lively this spring: Wear sunscreen and don’t forget to clean out your makeup drawer.
