Cindy Crawford is redefining her iconic ’90s supermodel glam with a fresh, modern twist—and a few products in her makeup routine might surprise you. In a recent video for Allure, the model, 58, shared her “timeless” 10-minute makeup regimen featuring a blend of high-end and drugstore gems we can’t get enough of. In reality, the process took even less than the full 10 minutes, proving the age-old saying that “less is more.” Ahead, we break down some of the standout parts of her regimen, including her skin prep, favorite drugstore mascara, and the TikTok-viral lip product she loves.
Cindy Crawford’s skin prep
Naturally, she began by prepping her skin with products from her very own line, Meaningful Beauty. She starts with the brand’s Youth Activating Melon Serum, which she uses “morning and night” under her moisturizer during the day and under her night cream in the evening. After that that, she applies the Meaningful Beauty Environmental Protecting Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30, which not only shields against the sun’s UV rays but also combats environmental stressors.
Cindy Crawford’s favorite mascara
Crawford’s go-to makeup products include a slew of luxury favorites such as the Charlotte Tilbury Cheek to Chic Blush, Anastasia Beverly Hills Dual-Ended Brow Pencil, and Armani Beauty Smooth Silk Eye Pencil. But what really caught our attention are the budget-friendly staple she loves: the L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Panorama Mascara.
“The reason I choose mascara is always about the brush, if it’s an easy brush for me to work with,” Crawford told viewers. She ensures flawless application by making sure there’s plenty of product on the brush, then blots the mascara wand with a tissue before swiping it onto her lashes—a technique she admits might waste some mascara, but it works for her. “I really try to start at the root and lift,” she added, noting that she opts out of bottom lash mascara for a normal day.
Cindy Crawford’s lip routine
Cindy Crawford admits that she tends to stick with neutral lips, a timeless choice that complements her classic style. For the lip part of her regimen, she starts by slightly overdrawing her lip liner on one side. While she once swore by the MAC’s nostalgic (and iconic) Spice Liner that “everyone” had back in the day, these days, she opts for By Terry Lip Liner. She loves it for its perfect color and lasting power. To finish, she swipes on the Tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Balm, which gives her that coveted your-lips-but-better, moisture-rich look.
