By MAMAMIA STYLE

Rosie Huntington-Whitley, former Victoria Secret Angel and owner of the best skin we’ve ever seen, is currently in Australia as the face of ModelCo.

We asked the 27-year-old English beauty and Transformer’s star how she keeps it so glowing and fresh. Oh, and by the way, it’s even better in person.

Mamamia: What’s your daily skincare routine? And what are you favourite ModelCo products?

Rosie Huntington Whitley: I like to ensure my skincare regime is simple yet effective, using products that produce real results for my skin. I always start with my ModelCo Gel Cleanser to lift away any impurities- I love the lightweight gel formula. In the mornings I apply my ModelCo Instant Miracle Booster which instantly firms my skin and invigorates my complexion. In the evenings I apply a few drops of ModelCo Rosehip Plus because I love the way my skin looks and feels the morning after. Because travel and makeup are such big parts of my life, my skin is quite sensitive. ModelCo Soothing Day & Night Moisturiser is my go-to moisturiser as it calms and restores hydration back into my skin.

My favourite products would have to include the ModelCo Replenishing Rosie Mist, I carry this in my handbag at all times and give my skin a quick spritz for instant refreshment. I also can’t go past my ModelCo Double Ended Facial Wipes, they simplify my skincare routine and fit perfectly in my bag when I am travelling

 MM: If you could only use 5 beauty products, what would they be?

RHW: I am obsessed with eyebrows!! I feel good when my eyebrows are groomed so I love ModelCo Eyebrow Designer Eye Kit; As I live in sunny LA, sunscreen is very important to me and I use ModelCo Daily Face SPF 50+; Burt’s bees wax lip balm – I like to keep my lips soft and subtle and Burt’s Bees is a great natural balm; and ModelCo Shine Ultra Lip gloss in Rosie (of course!).

I would have to include my ModelCo Instant Miracle Booster too, it is my skin saviour, you will rarely find me without it. I work long hours and often have to wear heavy makeup which can cause my skin to become dull. Instant Miracle Booster brightens and invigorates my skin, it is part of my daily routine.

MM: How do you keep in shape when you’re travelling?

RHW: Incorporating exercise into my daily routine no matter how big or small instantly revitalizes my skin and helps me keep in shape when I’m travelling. When I’m feeling lethargic a quick yoga sequence stretches out my ligaments and gives me a boost.

MM: Do you do anything special to get in shape for your Marks &Spencer lingerie shoots?

RHW: Before a shoot I love a high energy gym session, Tracy Anderson [personal trainer] is super tough but I feel great when I leave! LA is geared towards healthy living so even my days ‘off’ are spent horse-riding, surfing, being on the beach, going for great walks and swimming.

MM: Tell us about your diet. What are you favourite foods?

RHW: I absolutely love green smoothies! I always try to incorporate celery, spinach, kale and pears to my smoothies along with banana and a bit of almond butter to give it a boost of sweetness. My skin always glows when I start my day with a green smoothie.

I also cook a lot of English comfort food. I love to cook roast chicken with all the trimmings- for pudding I love a crème brûlée!
