Victoria’s Secret Beauty Secrets Revealed

Elsa Hosk goes to great lengths to keep her blonde hair in top shape. “My trick to shiny hair is to sleep with a hair mask. I even keep the towel on my head. It really locks in the moisturising conditioner. Kerastase and Redken hair masks are my favourite.”

Jourdan Dunn has a unique way of faking long lashes. “To make the illusion that you have fake lashes, someone taught me that you get a card – like cardboard or a credit card – place it behind your eyelashes, and then you use your mascara and push it against it, and then it makes it look like you’ve got a false lash. It’s really good.”

To keep her skin super-soft, Victoria’s Secret Angel Shanina Shaik makes a beeline for the children’s aisle. “Using Johnson’s Baby Oil straight out of the shower is really good,” she says. “It stays in your skin for 24 hours.”

Joan Smalls actually ignores the labels on her skincare items, preferring to tailor them to her complexion instead. “In the morning, I always make sure to wash my face with a salicylic acid cleanser and moisturise with a combination of lotion and Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair,” says the model. “I know it’s supposed to be used at night but I like putting it on for daytime because it makes my skin look dewy and glowing!”

Behati likes to keep things clean and simple. “I love rose water spray or theWeleda Skin Food, it’s amazing,” says the miodel. “Other than that, I just do mascara—any kind, I don’t care. The best is Revlon.”

Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima reportedly gets a Brazilian blow dry every two months (akin to a smoothing treatment), which she maintains with keratin products to repair, restructure and condition her hair.

You’ll never catch Candice wearing makeup to bed. “The main thing my mum taught me was that you can never be too young to start taking care of your skin,” said Swanepoel. “No matter how tired I am, I will never sleep in my make-up.”

Barbara Fialho doesn’t pay to get a facial – she simply visits a steam room every week. “I wear makeup every day for work and I do my hair every day for work,” the supermodel explains. “So with the steam, I am able to really, deeply clean my pores without a facial. Your pores are open afterwards, so if you wash and deep cleanse and use a toner, it does wonders.”

She may not be an Angel anymore, but Miranda Kerr has left a lasting legacy: Lily Aldridge reportedly uses the Kora Organics moisturiser on a daily basis.

Newcomer Jasmine Tookes doesn’t take her beauty regime lightly. “I learnt to ice my face right before going to bed from my mum’s dermatologist a long time ago, and I’ve done it ever since. You take an ice cube and rub it all over your face until it melts away and it leaves your pores really tight and your face really firm.”
