She Starts Her Day with a 4-Step Skincare Routine
Back in 2022, Collins described her morning skincare regimen towards the Ny Times, saying she starts by splashing cold water on her behalf face to wake her up, followed by a slew of Lanc^ome products and finished with a layer of sunscreen.

She Re-Applies Hand Cream Through the Day
Skincare doesn't just apply to the face, you know. Nobody knows this better than Collins herself, and that's why she's constantly re-applying hand cream.
“I'm really big on soft hands,” Collins tells Elle Canada. “My grandmother always used to say, make sure that your hands feel soft.”
Besides making them feel super soft all day long, keeping hands moisturized protects them from drying out and showing signs of aging. Since the skin on the hands is super delicate, they're one of the first places to exhibit signs of aging. You can't fail after some paw pampering.

Brow Gel's Her Best Weapon
Obviously, Lily Collins has insanely amazing brows. It turns out, her famous Audrey Hepburn-style arches aren't right down to skilled brow shapers, but plain old genetics. Yep, she was born with those baddies! *sigh*
According to her makeup artist Fiona Stiles, hardly any grooming goes on when she's getting Collins' brows ready.
“I do always brush them finished a spoolie and I'll often set them with a brow pomade or gel,” says Stiles. “Occasionally I'll [fill in] a little here or there, but as I said, she just has naturally amazing brows.”
The actress herself recently told Vogue something similar, saying she swipes highlighter underneath the brow, then brushes your hair up and over. Easy!
She Keeps Her Makeup Looks Simple
The former face of Chanel has a motto: “The less there's you, the less there's to go wrong.” Ermmm…Parisian vibes!
When she does wear makeup, she sticks to a few essentials: a little foundation, a swipe of mascara, just a little brow gel, and lip balm.
On special occasions — like for Hollywood award ceremonies, the Met Gala, and other glam events — she'll extend her makeup routine with some extras for example eyeliner, eyeshadow, lipsticks, and concealer. In some instances, she may even rock a red lip, but she'll always decide on a deep plum hue to complement her ivory skin tone.
But on a general day-to-day basis, Collins keeps her makeup routine almost as simple as her beauty regimen.

You don't always need lush beauty products to get the task finished. Often, the things you find in your kitchen can perform just as good of the job. Like coconut oil for instance.

Plus, it stops your pores from becoming clogged, preventing breakouts and keeping the skin clear.
