Alexa Chung, a firm fixture during London Fashion Week, has been busy with the launch of her book “It” – a short collection of musings, sketches and beauty tips complete with plenty of Pinterest-worthy personal snaps. BBx contributing writer Natalie Peck takes some beauty tips from one of the coolest women on the front row.
SUPER SOFT SKIN
A self-confessed face cream addict – “I’m obsessed with moisturising, it’s like a problem” – Alexa is constantly topping up her skin with nourishing products, especially when flying. Try Natio Antioxidant Face Moisturiser to combat dry and tired skin from an air-conditioning overload. Or too many late nights…
LOW MAINTENANCE
Alexa is low maintenance when it comes to her choppy length, blow-drying her fringe and letting the rest air-dry into super casual waves. But she does rely on oil to keep the lengths frizz-free. Eva Cosmetics’ Mystic Diamond is great for keeping hair healthy and shiny without weighing it down.
SIMPLE BUT STRIKING
You don’t have to be a pro to recreate Alexa’s sixties-inspired feline flick with liquid eyeliner – as the face of Eyeko, she sports the brand’s fab Skinny Liquid Eyeliner – perfect for applying just the right amount to your lash line, as well as faking a steady hand.
