Amal Clooney is an icon for the ages—she’s whip-smart, has built a career around compassion, and has firmly established herself as a bona fide beauty and style guru. Today is her 48th birthday, and frankly, she looks better every year. While she’s a natural beauty if I’ve ever seen one, her favorite products help bolster all that innate gorgeousness. She’s pretty low-key about her go-tos, but I did some digging to uncover both her red-carpet and everyday beauty essentials.
My mom is one of Clooney’s biggest fans, too, and never stops singing the praises of her beauty-brains combo. I looped her in on the search for Clooney’s staples, and we both found products that quickly rose to the top of our lists. Our favorites include a miracle cream from Charlotte Tilbury, drugstore hair oil, and an It Girl hair perfume worth pouncing on.

The operative word in the title of Charlotte Tilbury’s Magic Cream is, you guessed it, “magic.” The formula is packed with hyaluronic acid, vitamins C and E, and a peptide complex designed to smooth, plump, and brighten skin. It was a key part of Clooney’s Golden Globes prep.

In addition to her intelligence and elegance, Amal Clooney is known for her famously voluminous hair. The T3 Featherweight StyleMax Hair Dryer is the secret behind many of her best hair days. It comes with four attachments, three speeds, and five heat settings, and it works on all hair types.

Clooney relies on the heavy-lifting, affordable brand L’Oréal for hair care products, further proving that she really is for the people. This $8 hair serum smooths frizz, adds shine, and nourishes strands all the while. The glycolic acid formulation makes hair look healthier over time, too.

Charlotte Tilbury’s Airbrush Flawless Blur Concealer goes on super creamy and dries down to a semi-matte, natural finish, creating a truly airbrushed look. Clooney wore this formula to the Golden Globes, as confirmed by a PR representative. Expect up to 24 hours of crease-free wear, real hydration (thanks, hyaluronic acid and squalane), and all the compliments.

Even though skin care often gets the credit for the agelessness someone like Clooney embodies, glossy hair goes a long way toward creating youthful vibes, too. To achieve that sleek and shiny look, Clooney uses this under-$15 hair gloss with more than 13,000 five-star ratings on Amazon. It conditions while it tones, and it’s super easy to incorporate into your shower routine.

These lifting and firming masks from 111Skin fall squarely into “splurge” territory, but the fact that Clooney herself uses them is a pretty convincing selling point. The multi-section sheet mask targets different facial zones to efficiently address aging concerns—such as an upper section that tackles frown lines and a lower section that delivers plumping collagen. The full mask tightens and reduces fine lines across the board while hydrating and nourishing in the process. Think of it as a mini, at-home facial.

Smelling good knows no age limit, and hair perfume is an easy, low-key way to top off your signature scent. According to a PR rep, Clooney wore this made-in-France hair fragrance to the Golden Globes; it features notes of bergamot, Bulgarian rose, jasmine, Turkish rose, and vanilla.
