A Guide To Jennifer Aniston’s Beauty Routine

We break down Ms Aniston’s entire beauty routine.

We all know the power Jennifer Aniston has in the beauty world. Her iconic hairstyle ‘The Rachel Cut’, from the hit ‘90s TV show Friends, is still a common source of inspiration even over 20 years later. One of Hollywood’s most-loved personalities, it comes as no surprise that she’s achieved icon status in the beauty sphere. But have you ever wondered how she maintains her youthful aura? We have too. That’s why we’re bringing you her entire beauty routine. That’s right, the entire routine–from skin and makeup, to wellness and, of course, hair, these are all the products Aniston uses to achieve that effortless glow and maintain radiance.

SKIN

In an interview with Byrdie, Aniston revealed she’s not usually one to stick to particular skincare products and tends to move around a lot. However, lucky for us, she did highlight a few of her favourites–Biologique Recherche being one of them. She loves their range of P50 lotions in particular, which work to gently exfoliate and balance pH levels in the skin. Shani Darden’s Retinol Reform is another product Aniston loves, as well as the Hollywood facialist, Shani Darden, herself. Referring to Darden as a ‘skin guru’, Aniston highlights how much she loves everything she does, from her products to her treatments. 

Thanks to British Vogue, we know Aniston is a lover of sheet masks (who isn’t?). Her favourites are from 111 Skin. The Rose Gold Illuminating Eye Mask from the brand might just be her secret to always looking fresh. Aniston is also known to be a fan of the Jillian Dempsey Gold Bar, a 24K gold-plated vibrating beauty bar which works to promote blood flow and help with lymphatic drainage, as well as having de-puffing and smoothing benefits. In an interview with Vogue, she says she was shocked by the results of the device–so, naturally, we’re adding to cart immediately. 

Not just one for at-home skincare, Aniston is also a lover of professional treatments. Her go-to facialists are esthetician’s Melanie Simon and Joanna Czech. Simon is an electrical esthetician known for her skin cell reparative facials that are so good Aniston takes them home with her–in the form of Simon’s at-home nano and microcurrent device, the ZIIP HALO facial toning device*. Czech on the other hand specialises in facial massages, telling British Vogue she likes to work the facial muscles as if they’re dough. Sounds delicious if you ask us. 

MAKEUP

Aniston is known to work with celebrity makeup artist, Angela Levin, who is more often than not the woman behind her always radiant makeup looks. However, there is another famous name also responsible for Aniston’s luminous glow–none other than Gucci Westman, makeup artist and founder of much-loved beauty brand Westman Atelier. The pair have been longtime friends and began working together back in the ‘90s. In an interview with Marie Claire, Westman reveals the products she uses to achieve Aniston’s signature natural glowy makeup look. Beginning with the Vital Skincare Complexion Drops (also a favourite of Gritty Pretty’s Beauty Editor, Rose Garnett), she then uses the Face Trace Contour Stick in shade ‘Truffle’ and Beauty Butter Bronzer to create that healthy complexion and sculpt the face. Next, she adds a wash of colour and dimension to the cheeks using the Baby Cheeks Blush in go-to shades ‘Minette’ or ‘Poppet’. Finishing the look, Westman opts for the Vital Pressed Skincare Powder to set and ensure the bronzed glow lasts all day. If you weren’t already a fan of Westman Atelier products, you are now. 

HAIR

Of course, Aniston’s beauty routine would not be complete without knowing her hair secrets. Responsible for the iconic ‘Rachel’ hairstyle is Chris McMillan, who is still the man behind Aniston’s cut and style today. As for those honey-blonde tones? That is the work of Michael Canale, celebrity colourist, who similarly has been working with Aniston for over 20 years. Maybe the secret to achieving Aniston worthy locks, dare we say it, is consistency? 

As for her haircare routine, McMillan tells Vogue that Aniston alternates between Living Proof No Frizz Shampoo and Drunk Elephant Cocomino Glossing Shampoo, depending on her hair needs at the time. Her go-to conditioners are Drunk Elephant Cocomino Marula Cream Conditioner and the Canale Soften Plus Conditioner, both infused with hair protecting ingredients that provide a loving burst of nourishment and hydration. Then, we have Aniston’s very own haircare range, LolaVie. Her must-haves from the brand include the Glossing Detangler, a multitasking product that protects and smooths, and the Perfecting Leave-In Conditioner, which helps to combat frizz and moisture loss. Unfortunately, LolaVie is not yet available in Australia, so, for the sake of our Jennifer Aniston hair goals, we can only hope she brings her brand down under soon. Finally, McMillan lets us in on one of Aniston’s favourite hair masks–the Living Proof Restore Repair Mask. He tells Vogue that Aniston likes to give her hair a nourishing treatment every Sunday, while she’s having a manicure and watching 60 Minutes (relatable). 

WELLNESS

A devotee to living a healthy lifestyle, we know we can count on Aniston for wellness inspiration. In her Byrdie interview, Aniston gives us an insight into her wellness essentials. Epsom salt baths and infrared saunas are two of her favourite ways to promote recovery after working out, with meditation and a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in warm water every morning her go-to’s to start the day off right. As for her workout routine, Aniston has recently partnered with fitness company Pvolve, of which she has been a huge fan of since discovering the platform and credits their workouts for transforming her mental and physical health. A regular feature on her Instagram is Vital Proteins, where she is Chief Creative Officer, with the Collagen Peptides seemingly one of her favourites from the brand, adding it to her coffee for an extra boost.
