Facial care
Like most models, Gigi faced the problem of skin fatigue due to the abundance of artistic makeup. That is why the girl’s main rule was daily thorough cleansing of the skin and the use of a large amount of moisturizers.
Gigi helps keep her face in perfect condition with inexpensive drugstore cleansing cosmetics, which the model often chooses depending on the scent or shape of the bottle.
In her free time from filming, Gigi prefers not to wear makeup at all, thereby giving her skin the opportunity to rest. The model recalls that her mother taught her this, who always tried to walk around with the cleanest, most natural face possible at home.
Gigi calls her second beauty secret thoroughly moisturizing the skin. According to the star, the brighter her makeup is done, the more moisturizing cosmetics should be on her face, since makeup instantly absorbs moisture, drying out the tissue.
The model calls Intensive Repair Very Dry Skin Lotion (from Eucerin) her favorite product for moisturizing the skin. Also used to flying constantly, Gigi always has cleansing and moisturizing wipes with her, which help quickly moisturize the skin and remove makeup in the cramped conditions of the airport.

This technique allows you to make your mouth more attractive and plump. To combat dead particles, the model uses a sugar scrub, which she applies to the skin of her lips with a toothbrush. Just recently out of adolescence, Gigi often suffers from acne on her face, and tries to fight pimples with toothpaste.
The model notes that her mother taught her to apply a small amount of drying paste to the pimple, and then place a piece of toilet paper on top of it. Gigi tries to make such a drying compress at night, and in the morning she simply cleanses the skin with a damp towel.
Hair care
In her interviews, Gigi Hadid admitted that she prefers not to wash her hair every day, believing that water and detergents dry out her hair very much. To cleanse her hair, the girl chose shampoos and conditioners from the Sheer Blonde series (from John Frieda), which make her hair much softer.
After washing, the model applies Smooth and Finish Serum (from GHD) and Ocean Spritz Beach Texture Hairspray (from Wella).
To achieve baby-like hair, the model uses a Sephora facial brush and, if necessary, can use a simple toothbrush. Gigi applies hairspray to her brush to remove all excess and create the perfect ponytail.
Under the California sun, the actress's naturally blonde hair naturally fades, but Gigi always adjusts the shade of her hair using the balayage technique.
Makeup
In everyday life, Gigi Hadid tries to go without makeup or use her beauty must-have, consisting of foundation, bronzer and mascara. The model is confident that the women in her family have faces that would become quite heavy with too much makeup, so she tries to minimize the amount of decorative cosmetics she uses.
The model prefers to apply makeup in natural light, and for going out in public she uses the services of makeup artist Patrick Ta:
- First, exfoliate the facial skin from dead cells.
- Illuminating the fabric with a special base and then applying moisturizing makeup before applying foundation.
- Correcting the fabric using Armani Fluid Sheer foundation, and then applying highlighter with a brush on the prominent areas of the cheekbones, down the bridge of the nose and on the Cupid's arrow.
- Setting makeup with matte powder and then adding shine to the skin with a finishing base of MAC Prep + Prime.
Gigi Hadid's calling card is her sable eyebrows, which the model carefully protects from any impact. From time to time, the girl allows her lower hairs to be adjusted, but she forbids changing the natural shape of her brow ridges.
Nutrition
Gigi Hadid's popular nutrition system helps her stay in great shape, requiring her to adhere to a diet 6 days a week, and on the 7th day allowing her body to relax and pamper itself. The model advises all girls to eat healthy, but eat hamburgers periodically to stay sane.
Gigi herself can easily indulge in pizza or a sweet dessert during a break, and calls her favorite dish the “Spicy Citrus” cocktail, which contains, in addition to oranges, ginger and cayenne pepper, which help to relax and warm up the body.
The model prefers to drink this drink immediately before training, preparing the body for active exercise.
Sport
Gigi Hadid began actively playing sports while still in school, becoming a good rider and captain of the volleyball team. Now the girl compares favorably with her colleagues in the modeling business not because of her extreme thinness, but because of her attractive, feminine, appetizing forms, noting that she will never become too thin anyway.
Boxing helps the model keep herself in great shape. According to the star, training helps her not only pump up her body, but also throw out all her excess emotions in the ring. Gigi works out with a punching bag 4 times a week, and also participates in sparring for an hour. Such exercises help her not only tighten her body muscles, but also improve her posture.
The model also calls squats her favorite exercises, which help to tighten the buttocks as much as possible. Gigi notes that at home she constantly posts a reminder on the refrigerator to do at least 15 squats during every trip to the kitchen. According to the star, this technique is of course very painful, but allows you to quickly get an excellent result.

An interesting fact is that the first editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine in the Middle East is Princess Dina Abdulaziz, the owner of a popular fashion store in Riyadh and the spouse of one of the members of the Royal Family of Saudi Arabia. It was under her editorial hand that the image of Gigi Hadid was published on the first cover of a popular fashion publication.
