I love to learn about celeb-favorite skincare products because, when you think about it, celebrities have access to the best of the best. They can afford an impossible number of brands and products. When they genuinely back one of them, it's significant, and I can expect it to offer real, visible results. When multiple celebrities back the same skincare brand, I know it's something special. 

That's the case with a rather under-the-radar brand called Allies of Skin. Its highly effective products contain expertly formulated combinations of hero ingredients like peptides, antioxidants, retinol, and exfoliating acids, just to name a few. As it turns out, this brand can count some highly recognizable people as its fans, including Kaia Gerber and January Jones—two celebs who are known for their glowing, healthy-looking skin. When I found this out, I knew I had to give it a shot. So I did, and now, I count myself as a fan too. Ahead, see the specific products Gerber and Jones love the most. Then, see the products I tried, some of which have become mainstays in my skincare routine. 

Kaia Gerber's Favorite Products

She counts the brand's cleanser as one of her favorite products. It's gentle and sulfate-free and contains ingredients like silk amino acids, vitamin C, green and white tea extract, and astaxanthin (a powerful antioxidant). It's formulated for all skin types, including dry skin, as it cleanses without stripping moisture away. 

Gerber is also a fan of the brand's best-selling product, which is basically a moisturizer-serum hybrid. It contains peptides to plump the skin, seven brightening ingredients to do away with dullness and discoloration, and nine antioxidants to fight free radicals. 

Next is this oil, which contains bakuchiol, the ingredient known for being a natural alternative to retinol. It also has 11 plant oils, including organic rosehip, sea buckthorn, black cumin, pumpkin-seed, and pomegranate oils. Together, they firm, smooth, and moisturize the skin. 

The final product in Gerber's lineup is this night cream that's formulated with skin-smoothing peptides and retinal—not retinol. The former is a gentle vitamin A ingredient that's touted as being safe for sensitive skin. There's also argan oil, cranberry-seed oil, and Indian ginseng extract to moisturize and reduce signs of aging. 

January Jones's Favorite Products

One of her favorite products is the brand's vitamin C serum. It's unique in that it's a waterless formula, which the brand claims makes vitamin C all the more potent, delivering brightening effects and antioxidant protection. If Jones's smooth, bright, and glowing complexion is any indication, it works. 

Jones has also shared her love for this overnight sleeping mask. With a blend of exfoliating acids (including glycolic, lactic, and salicylic), plus antioxidants and a retinoid complex, it promises to smooth and brighten the skin in just three uses. 

My Favorite Products

When it came time to test these formulas, I knew I wanted to try Gerber's and Jones's favorite products and, if I was lucky, a few others that had caught my eye. I tested the formulas over the course of two weeks, which isn't very long in the skincare sense, but even so, I started seeing results almost immediately. 

First, let me give you some background on my skin. It's prone to redness, sensitivity, and dehydration, which is why it craves lightweight moisture. If anything is too heavy, I start to see some texture and clogged pores. If anything is too lightweight, I start to see dullness and feel an uncomfortable tight sensation. So for me, finding products that work effectively without causing excess redness or irritation is a fine balance.

Much to my surprise, none of the products I tried triggered my rosacea or caused irritation. Instead, I started to see a visible difference in about a week. The sun damage that lingers on my cheeks was minimized, and my skin looked and felt plump and hydrated. Ahead, see my favorite products that, in my opinion, are totally worth the money. 

I have one word for this cleanser: dreamy. The silky, peach-colored formula transforms into a light lather. It effectively removes sunscreen and excess oil without stripping my skin. (I can't stand it when cleansers just add to my dehydration and redness.) It's even gentle enough for me to use both morning and night, which is a big deal, as some other formulas are too harsh for my skin to handle twice a day. 

This is my favorite product out of all of them I tried, and I don't say that lightly. I love the peptide- and antioxidant-rich formula. I like knowing it's defending my skin from free radicals throughout the day and acting as a sort of "reset" for my skin at night. (Yes, I use it both morning and night after cleansing.) 

As for the texture, it's silky and lightweight. It doesn't pill or leave an uncomfortable waxy feeling behind like some other daily moisturizers. It's so good, and I'm completely hooked on it.

When I first tried this oil, I was surprised to see how glowy it made my skin look. In fact, the first night I applied it, my sister complimented my skin and asked why it looked so good. I think it's due, in part, to the slight orange tint of the oil, which instantly made my complexion look healthy and sunkissed. I'm sure the bakuchiol and blend of 11 plant oils didn't hurt either. 

Okay, here's a product that I stumbled across on my own. In other words, it didn't come my way via celebrity recommendation. It's a moisturizer that contains ultra-soothing and skin barrier–supporting ingredients like oat protein, ceramides, panthenol, squalane, and black cumin oil. 

I used it after an exfoliating mask, and my redness all but disappeared overnight. I'm not kidding. This will be a product I keep in my collection to use whenever my skin is feeling compromised and stressed or when I go a little overboard with exfoliation.

Here's the thing about January Jones: she always looks effortlessly incredible. At 44 years old, the star is always serving aspirational beauty looks. I constantly wish I had access to her entire beauty routine because I'm pretty confident that that would make me unstoppable. 

Luckily, Jones is known to share her beauty secrets on Instagram from time to time. This year, she shared her favorite beauty products. "I was going to just do a short list to bring on a deserted island, but I have no plans to be on a deserted island this year," she says. Keep reading for the 27 products Jones uses (and that we will now be using too). 

This article was published at an earlier date and has been updated.

I'd argue that January Jones has one of the best swimsuit collections in Hollywood—just one glance at her Instagram account will provide plenty of evidence. So when I came across a new H&M swimsuit at a fantastic price that looks like a dead ringer for one on Jones's 'gram, I knew I had to share. 

The high-leg one-piece swimsuit is reminiscent of Pamela Anderson's iconic Baywatch suit from the '90s, but make no mistake: There's nothing dated about it. A red one-piece is as classic as it gets, and it's a swimwear trend that's guaranteed to never go out of style. Scroll down to shop H&M's new swimsuit, and see how January Jones wears it.

Just when you think you've scrolled through every last photo from Oscars weekend—including red carpet dresses, beauty looks, and after-party outfits—there's still more fashion greatness to uncover. Case in point: Net-a-Porter's celeb-filled party co-hosted by designer LaQuan Smith. The event celebrated Smith's debut on Net-a-Porter's website, where his dresses, bodysuits, skirts, and more will surely sell like lightning. 

Tiffany Haddish, Ava DuVernay, Julia Fox, and January Jones were among the attendees. Jones's outfit, in particular, struck me because she managed to make the trend I wore in third grade look chic again: capri pants. Wearing a LaQuan Smith plunging red jumpsuit, Jones may have single-handedly brought back what my mom would call pedal pushers. Who would have thought? Scroll down to see what everyone wore and to shop LaQuan Smith.

Is it just us, or is the 40-plus age range suddenly the most lit of them all? For reasons beyond our comprehension, it was once a scary marker of time that women met with dread and dismay, but these days, it's the unofficial kickoff to the unbothered era of doing whatever the hell we please, whenever we see fit. While there are certain drawbacks like changes to our hair, skin, and nails that require slightly different beauty practices than the ones we carried out in early adulthood, there are so many experts and resources out there to help us make the smoothest transition. One area that requires a fair amount of retooling when we graduate to mature skin? Makeup.

That's where Monika Blunder comes in. The Hollywood makeup artist is known for creating the most gorgeous fresh and glowy makeup looks on icons such as Jennifer Garner, Gemma Chan, Jessica Alba, and Benjamin Button herself, January Jones. Blunder is also the creator of Monika Blunder Beauty, a clean makeup line dedicated to helping us all create that signature dewy complexion at home.

Being that she's a bona fide glow expert, we couldn't help but probe Blunder for some tips and tricks for achieving that enviable aura, and one of her answers was so simple yet so profound that it left us reeling. "I'm 51, and I just feel like I look so much younger when I wear less makeup," she said. "When I wear a lot of foundation or a lot of concealer, it goes into my fine lines, and it just ages me. So I think less is more, 100%." That's right—Blunder's big hack for creating the most glowy skin you've ever seen is using less makeup. 

In a "more is more" makeup landscape, this is truly a revelation. So what exactly are the pared-back makeup-bag staples that constitute the best makeup for mature skin? Blunder reveals all ahead.

1. Lightweight Foundation or Tinted Moisturizer

2. Cream Blush

3. Lip Liner

4. Lengthening Mascara

5. Eyebrow Pencil

6. Eyeliner

7. Weightless Powder

8. Concealer

As January Jones celebrates her 43rd birthday, we can't help but think about the fact that not only does the Hollywood darling look half her age, but she's staying on top of trends like a 20-something fashion editor. Whether you're a longtime fan of Jones dating back to her early Betty Draper on Mad Men days, or you just dropped in around the start of her The Politician era, if you're following the American actor on Instagram, then you know her IRL style only gets 12 times better than her TV personalities.

We're not just talking about a cute dress, a surprising bikini trend, or a noteworthy jewelry piece here and there. We mean every single look from Jones is so on-trend. If you're here to take notes, keep scrolling for our favorite outfits from the Spinning Out actor, then shop similar pieces for yourself.

Even though there are thousands of swimsuits to choose from, sometimes celebrities end up wearing the exact same thing. I've already covered the bikini that both Jennifer Lopez and Bella Hadid own, and now a new Holywood duo are up next: January Jones and Kourtney Kardashian. They both have worn Good American's Showoff One-Piece ($109), which is a leopard-print one-piece that's such a classic. 

You might have noticed that Jones has been on a swimwear Instagram spree this summer. Her bikini photos—we've counted at least a dozen since March—regularly get tens of thousands of likes. Meanwhile, Kourtney's Instagram post of the leopard swimsuit her sister Khloé designed has racked up an impressive 1.6 million likes (and counting). Scroll down to see the swimsuit in question and shop the trend for yourself.

If you take a quick glance at January Jones's Instagram feed, you'll notice a fair amount of poolside swimsuit photos. Ever since quarantine began in March, Jones has let us in on her stay-at-home routine, and it involves a lot of time in her beautiful backyard clad in stylish bikinis. That's the life, right? Jokingly, she dubbed the photo series: "Out of work actor needs attention.” She also captioned another photo: "Pro tip: Synchronized Swimming is easier when you’re solo." 

I looked through all of Jones's dozen-plus swimsuits and narrowed them down to four major categories. She wears certain trends over and over, just in different variations. For instance, she'll wear a high-waisted bikini with a bandeau top one day and a ruched triangle top the next. Scroll down to see January Jones's top four swimsuit trends according to her Instagram.

Next, 5 dress trends you won't regret in 10 years. 

When it comes to swimwear, do you stick to the classics or do you like to have fun with different trends? (Don't worry—there's no wrong answer.) Yesterday, I covered Sarah Jessica Parker's timeless one-piece swimsuit, and now January Jones is making a case for something a bit more experimental, so we've got you covered on both ends. 

In a new Instagram photo, Jones wore Marysia's Ruffle Bikini Top ($170) and Ruffle Bikini Bottoms ($120). The look hits on an under-the-radar trend that I haven't seen too much of this season yet: the swim skirt. I, for one, haven't worn this look since I was a kid, but there are absolutely some grown-up versions out there. I did some digging and found several other examples of skirted bikini bottoms, ranging from Topshop to Agent Provocateur. Scroll down to see how January Jones wears the swim-skirt trend, and shop the look for yourself.

Next, this 89-year-old looks 25 years younger—here are the 14 skincare items she uses. 

If you asked us last year, we never would have predicted that robes would be the must-have item of 2020. Who could have? But since we're all spending more time at home, it's safe to say this has become our go-to piece of clothing—and it looks like many celebs agree. 

Whether embracing that 24/7 cozy lifestyle in traditional terry cloth, prioritizing DIY spa treatments while wrapped in a lightweight layer, lounging poolside in a pretty cover-up or even throwing on a bright, patterned kimono before taking a Zoom call (we're looking at you, Hillary Kerr!), robes of all stripes have rightfully earned their place in our 2020 wardrobes. 

After noticing this trend on Instagram, our inklings were affirmed when The New York Times reported that robe sales had more than doubled in the past few months. The best part? There are so many styles to choose from. Whether you're all about the bathrobe like Victoria Beckham, Chrissy Teigen, and Emily Ratajakowski, or favor flowier styles like January Jones, Nicole Richie, and Cardi B, there's the perfect robe 'fit to be found. 

So what are you waiting for? Start scrolling—it's time to get wrapped up!

We were pleasantly surprised to see Victoria Beckham née Posh embracing robe life this week with her son Cruz.

There's a certain allure surrounding celebrity skincare routines that leaves us regular folks downright desperate for details. We glean what we can from their glam squads, who will occasionally throw us a bone about the hair and makeup items that help them look their best, but it seems like skincare regimens are decidedly more private. Getting even more specific, finding out what kind of body moisturizers any given It girl uses requires some serious research.

Thankfully, digging into the personal beauty rituals of the biggest stars is what we do best. In pursuit of the best moisturizers out there, we researched our little hearts out to get to the bottom of the lotions, creams, and oils used by the glowiest of A-listers. But that's not all! We also got into the ingredients to show you some more affordable options to help you get your glow on all winter, too.

Is it just me or do some celebrities appear to be aging in reverse? Like the fact that J.Lo just turned 50 completely blows my mind—she looks exactly the same as she did in her "Jenny From the Block" days. I can only hope to look as good as these women in the future, so I've recently started to pay close attention to their habits and routines, and I noticed they all have a few things in common.

Considering everything from their at-home beauty routines to their fitness regimens, there are a few things I've identified as the keys to their youthful auras that are worth discussing. From simple exercise to complicated accessories like LED light masks, if these methods work this well for the following celebs, I'm open to trying all of them. Below are the seven beauty secrets of the most youthful-looking celebrities, from Jennifer Aniston to Halle Berry. 

1. They swear by sun protection.

The number one thing any celebrity, dermatologist, or esthetician will tell you about anti-aging is sun protection. And this doesn't just mean SPF—it also means large hats, sunglasses, and cover-ups during sunny beach or pool days. 

2. They fake a tan instead.

Not only do celebs prioritize sunscreen, but they prefer to fake their glowing tans altogether to avoid unnecessary sun exposure. Jennifer Aniston even told Redbook that she was obsessed with L'Oréal's Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Towelettes. 

3. They recognize the importance of masking.

Celebrities who seem to have found the fountain of youth make no secret of their at-home masking routines—they are diligent about applying the right masks in between facial appointments. From hydrating to tightening to pore shrinking, there's a formula out there for everything, so you're sure to find a solution according to your skin concerns 

4. They know the power of a good red lip.

Celebs are no stranger to glam looks and they know the age-defying power of a good red lip. A bright lip color radiates a playful vibe and will liven up any look.

5. They aren't afraid to try new things.

It seems like everyday there's a buzzy new beauty gadget or treatment, and celebs are first in line to be the guinea pigs for all of them. Age-defying celebs know that sometimes beauty is pain and are generally up for trying the newest things in the beauty space—from LED masks to cooling glass balls. 

6. They prioritize exercise.

Ask any celeb about their beauty routine and exercise is sure to be one of the top answers. Even the most low-maintenance stars will tell you they make fitness a priority. Not only is it good for your health and heart, but it also gives you seriously glowing skin—plus a major endorphin rush.

7. They don't forget about "me" time. 

Equally as important as making time for exercise is making time for yourself to unwind and destress. Celebs do this in a myriad of ways—relaxing baths, meditation, or a tall glass of wine. Hey, whatever floats your boat right? 

Next up: I tried the so-called best redness-reducing products—here are my honest reviews.

By now, you might have noticed we have a thing for A-list beauty rituals, especially the rituals of celebrities such as Sofía Vergara, Tracee Ellis Ross, January Jones, and Drew Barrymore, who seem to be aging in reverse (and who deserve their very own Benjamin Button reboot). What we love even more is that many of said celebs ever so kindly provide their favorite products, treatments, and anti-aging skin and hair regimens for us to immediately screenshot—whether it's on IG or in an interview online.

Regardless of our source, we've accumulated a master list of Hollywood-approved serums, exfoliants, leave-in conditioners, and more that keep our favorite stars from showing any visible signs of aging. There's nothing wrong with the aging process, of course, but considering the below 10 celebrities are all over 40 and look virtually half their ages, we're enticed by their secrets to perpetual youthfulness. Curious to discover 20 holy-grail products celebs such as Gabrielle Union, Victoria Beckham, and Jennifer Aniston use on the regular? Keep scrolling! We're spilling all the product tea ahead.

Here's the thing about politics: It's all one big performance. So, it's hard to believe that it took until 2019 for someone to create a captivating show that focuses so sharply on the behind-the-scenes machinations of creating a candidate in the modern era. Enter The Politician, the latest collaboration between Ryan Murphy, Ian Brennan, and Brad Falchuk (better known as the creators of Glee), which has been captivating viewers since it dropped on Netflix last week.

We were mesmerized by not only the incredible performances from Ben Platt, Lucy Boynton, and Gwyneth Paltrow but also the impeccable styling of each and every character. This key facet in the overall look and feel of The Politician can be attributed to its costume designer, Claire Parkinson. Although her IMDB credits go back to 2011, The Politician marks Claire's first foray into owning the costume design for an entire series, and we have to say, she definitely earned our vote. 

Below, check out Parkinson's takeover of the Who What Wear Instagram, in which she answered fan questions and shared sneak peeks on set, and the style tips we learned along the way. Regardless of whether you bleed blue or run red, we can all agree on one thing: We can't wait to see what Payton Hobart and his perfectly styled supporters are up to (and get dressed up in) for season two. 

Claire and her real-life sister/assistant, Lily, at the premiere of The Politician. 

Prioritize the Process

Mood-boarding is an essential part of the styling process and helps the actor to visualize their character before stepping on set. 

Q: Where did all the power suit inspo come from?

A: McAfee's style was inspired by David Bowie, Gloria Steinem, Katherine Hepburn, Mick Jagger, and many more!

Mood boards can also help inform your go-to brands for pulling looks based on the aesthetic trends that align with each character. 

Embrace Color and Power Suits

This matching oversize pink suit commands respect for all the right reasons. 

We feel Jackie O vibes radiating hard from the future first lady on the show, Alice. 

Payton's vibrant wardrobe proves that you can be a serious candidate without forgoing playful pops of color.

Accessorize Effectively

The contrast between Astrid's and Alice's styles makes it hard to believe they'll ever agree on anything. 

When it comes to politics, it helps to have a clear and concise platform. This "tennis" outfit is pretty straight forward, and we like that for Astrid. 

Embrace Androgyny

It was inspiring to see such strong fashion statements for all body types and identities, proving that modern-day politics don't have to be quite so binary. 

Skye is probably the best dressed of the whole lot—and that's saying something! We love her on-trend jumpsuits, accessories, and ambition.

Use IRL Inspiration

Q: Who as per you is the best-dressed politician?

A: Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi always looks so chic! And we like how Senator Kamala Harris pairs her suits with smart sneakers when she's on the campaign trail.

If the environment is top of mind for you, there are more and more ways to shop sustainably. Here are some of our favorite tips and tricks for cutting down on your carbon footprint when it comes to shopping.

Sometimes all it takes is a swap of the hat (January Jones), an interesting mix of textures (Jessica Biel), or a pretty pastel hue (Olivia Wilde) to make your cold weather wardrobe feel new again. And there’s more wear that came from just beyond this slide. 

Tip: Mix rich textures for an all-black look that is anything but basic.

While promoting her latest film, The Truth About Emanuel, Biel proved all-black doesn't have to be boring by simply combing different fabrics and textures. The actress paired AllSaints’ Belmont Leather Jacket ($525) with an eyelet skirt from Giambattista Valli’s Resort 14 collection, Fendi’s Borderline Clutch ($860), and Bionda Castana’s Daphne Bis Pumps ($939).

Spotted outside the No. 11 Downing Street Christmas party in London, singer-songwriter Vickers assured us wearing two trends—in this case, Topshop’s Plaid Crop Trousers ($80) and a black turtleneck—is always better than one. 

Get The Look:

Joe Fresh Cropped Plaid Pants ($34); Uniqlo Alpaca Blend Turtle Neck Sweater ($20) in Black.

Tip: Swap a slouchy beanie for a more polished beret.

Jones bundled up Parisian-style for a lunch trip to Pasadena earlier this month, teaming a black beret with Leon Max’s Doubleweave Wool Coat ($498), MiH’s Ellsworth Jeans ($209) in Sugarblue, Loewe's Cruz Bag ($2600), and Coye Nokes black suede booties.

Bop Basics Wool Beret ($48)

Tip: In lieu of a dress, go for a fancy jumpsuit.

Get The Look:

Parker Sienna Lace Jumpsuit ($297); Sea Lace Jumpsuit ($565).

Tip: Style a crisp button-down under a graphic sweater.

At the announcement of the BORNFREE Campaign in New York last month, J.Crew’s President and Creative Director was perfectly polished in a J.Crew sweater worn over an Ascot Chang white shirt and paired with J.Crew trousers and Manolo Blahnik Suede BB Heels ($595).

Get The Look:

Tibi Nelio Jacquard Easy Pullover ($198); Ann Taylor Perfect Long Sleeve Button Down Shirt ($70).

Tip: Balance a fancy midi skirt with a t-shirt and flats.

Get The Look:

Mango Striped Chiffon Panel T-Shirt ($40); MSGM Floral-Print Gazar Midi Skirt ($520).
