Want to know their secrets? Many openly share their best advice—and you don’t need a professional stylist to benefit from their skincare and makeup tricks.

Here are some of the most trusted beauty tips from models. Try them out and see what works for you!

1. Cleanse Your Face Thoroughly After Heavy Makeup

Supermodel Kendall Jenner swears by a simple rule: never touch your face. Since she wears makeup often, she washes her face 2-3 times daily to prevent clogged pores.

5. Brighten Up with Highlighter

A quick highlighter swipe on cheekbones, nose, and cupid’s bow gives an instant glow—perfect for low-effort makeup days.
