How to Do Billie Eilish’s Skincare Routine
“I’ve had a good amount of acne and still struggle with it, and it’s been an ongoing thing in my life and my brother’s,” says Billie Eilish.1 That’s why the 22-year-old started caring for her skin from a young age. “I have had a skincare routine since I was, like, 12-ish. Before that, I never thought about it. It was actually my brother that told me to care about it because he went through some really, really bad skin years, and he was four years older than me. He was like, ‘Dude, you better take care of your fucking skin, man.’ That I listened to and I did.”2
Like most teens, she started out using “random drugstore stuff.” But then her makeup artist recommended Biba de Sousa. “Biba is this facialist who also makes all her own products. My skin had a complete transformation when I started using Biba products. Like, it’s so insane, I am so grateful for her.”2
Although she admits to sometimes “digging into her face” with metal pore extraction tools, she usually avoids that temptation by following a dedicated routine. In fact, she now sees skincare as a form of self-care. “Taking care of your skin is so, so important as just a person, and it’s kind of looked at as this like, ‘Oh, girls do that.’ But it’s not true. Skincare is so much more than that, and there is no gender to it. I feel like it helps me mentally. I feel so much better when I feel good about my skin.”2
