Every Product Rosie Huntington Whiteley Uses On Her Skin

There are key pieces of information we absolutely must learn of our favourite famous faces during COVID-19: one is, obviously, their banana bread recipes, and the other is their favourite skincare products...

Teen or adult, supermodel or mere mortal, acne doesn’t discriminate – and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is here to remind us of that.

Not that we’d noticed (the beauty icon's skin looks consistently clear to us), but the supermodel revealed she’s always suffered from spots and opened up about it in a video on her beauty-based website Rose Inc., where she documented her daily skincare routine.

I was getting an enormous amount of congestion in my skin,” she explains. “I just felt so insecure about my skin. People were commenting on it.

“Anyone that struggles with acne [...] will know that it really is something that can emotionally affect you.”

Diligent she is, showcasing a thorough cleanse-and-hydrate product sequence.

One of her skincare secrets is using two separate cleansers. The two have something in common, acids, it’s these she relies on for their deep cleansing and exfoliating action on skin and pores.

"I look for products that have salicylic acid in them, lactic, glycolic," she says. "These acids are going to really help resurface and strip the skin of dead skin cells, so they have that exfoliating quality to them".

Another beauty secret she swears by for treating adult acne: knowing what ingredients to avoid. Staying away from comedogenic products (like algae extract and coconut butter) is key to keeping pores clear and surfaces smooth, says RHW.

Ahead, every product Rosie swears by to treat her acne-prone skin...
