Ashley Madekwe’s Favourite Makeup, Hair & Nail Products

‘Revenge’ actress Ashley Madekwe has opened up on her daily essential beauty products. Ashley, who is also a style blogger, commented that when she’s head out and about, she reaches for a few simple multi-use products. One of her favourite items is Elizabeth Arden’s classic Eight Hour Cream, while she says she never goes anywhere without adding layers of mascara: “I always carry multipurpose products in my handbag. I like Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream, as it’s great for soothing dry skin and adding shine. I use it instead of balm too. Mascara is my daily essential. I pile it on top and bottom lashes during the day. If I’m going out, I’ll ad the individual Eylure lashes at the outer corners for more drama.”

Ashley reveals that she isn’t a huge nail art fan and prefers a subtle nude nail for day. She likes a natural look and has one favourite product that she uses to keep her nails looking fresh but simple: “Nude nail polish wins hands down over intricate nail art. I like to keep my pinkies natural-looking. Essie nail polish in Ballet Slippers is my ideal shade – it’s really classic.”

Commenting on how she likes to style her hair, Ashley tames her fluffy locks with styling serum to keep it sleek and easy to manage on a daily basis: “Styling serum sorts fluffy hair out instantly, so I use John Frieda Full Repair Flyaway Tamer. It’s nice and light and comes with a wand to easily slide over roots.”
