It’s Ciara Miller’s world and we’re all living in it. The new Love Island USA: Aftersun host and Dancing With the Stars season 35 contestant is at a career high of red carpet hosting gigs and brand deal opportunities. Let’s just say she’s making lemonade out of lemons! And naturally, with every new post and appearance, we can’t stop staring at how insanely good she looks. Her skin? Radiant. Her makeup? Flawless and fierce. Hair? Always perfection.
Ciara’s beauty routine is stacked with elite picks, including a few Cosmo editor favorites. The best part? Most of her reported go-to’s are under $50. So while we impatiently wait for the rest of Summer House season 10 to unfold—because let’s be honest, that reunion has serious Scandoval-level potential—we did some digging into Ciara’s current beauty obsessions. From the skincare behind her signature glow to the exact blush and lip combo she wore for the Met Gala, we tracked it all down ahead.
Best Deal
Most of Ciara’s “Get Ready With Me” TikToks start off with a quick spritz of Laneige’s Cream Skin Toner, noting “it keeps my skin hydrated and glowing.” She’s also a repeat user of the brand’s best-selling lip products: Lip Sleeping Mask, Lip Glowy Balm, and Glaze Craze Tinted Lip Serum.
As the self-appointed “Soap and Glory girl through and through,” one of her holy grail products is the brand’s body butter. “I have at least three of these and I keep the minis in all of my purses! Best quick fix for dry knees and elbows,” she says. You can see her rave about the brand in this TikTok.
Our favorite mascara of all time for lengthening and volume just so happens to be a go-to for Ciara. “The wand on this is super thin, and really great for coating your bottom lashes and your top lashes,” she says in this Amazon Livestream.
For a brow that stays on all day, Ciara relies on this double-brush-tip brow pen from L’Oréal Paris. “Even if I were to wear no makeup, this still would look like my natural brow…it looks so natural,” she says in this TikTok.
Just like the rest of the internet, Ciara keeps her skin hydrated with the viral Biodance Bio Collagen Mask. “That’s my go-to face mask. I love it when I fly,” she says. The hydrogel mask is formulated with low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid, three types of probiotics to strengthen the skin’s barrier, and collagen. Keep it on until it goes from a milky white to translucent to fully reap the glass skin benefits.
FYI: Her fellow bed bug and Summer House ex-costar Paige DeSorbo is also a fan of this mask.
A detangling brush is a haircare essential, and Ciara claims that this one is “the only brush I trust.” It has flexible bristles in two different heights to help detangle and remove knots while smoothing strands, all to help reduce breakage.
SPF is a non-negotiable for Ciara, and this chemical-based sunscreen is her new go-to, especially since it’s water-resistant for 40 minutes—great for impromptu water gun battles. “It’s lightweight and almost feels like a primer, most importantly, no white cast,” she says in this TikTok.
Ciara’s dreamy pink Met Gala blush was courtesy of a Summer Fridays Blush Butter Balm combo in Soft Strawberry and Pink Sunset, according to her makeup artist Kasey Spickard.
Her Met Gala Lip combo was also from Summer Fridays. Her lips were lined with the Softline Lip Liner in Espresso and topped off with the best-selling Lip Butter Balm in Vanilla and Vanilla Beige.
“I love the curl enhancing smoothie. I feel like it gives me the hydration that I need to define my curls and it also leaves me with a great shine,” she says in this BTS TikTok. It has over 24,000 rave reviews on Amazon, thanks to its hydration-packed formula: silk protein, neem oil, and coconut oil.
Ciara loves using the Olaplex No. 7 bonding oil on her braids. “I feel like it helps bring the natural shine back to my braids,” she says in this TikTok. “I’ll coat it on my hands and just go in individually put it on my braids.”
“Some plumping glosses can be intense, but this one is super gentle and gives that satisfying minty cooling effect and it’s infused with vitamin E for hydration,” Ciara says. That refreshing sensation is due to the menthol-infused formula. It comes in four colors: clear, nude, light pink, and hot pink, and leaves behind a high-shine finish.
Another mainstay in Ciara’s beauty routine? L’Oréal’s viral Lumi Glotion. She uses shade 905 as an all-over illuminator and 904 on the high points as a highlight. “It feels so lightweight and effortless on my skin,” she raves in this TikTok. And the glow isn’t limited to her face. She also uses it on her chest and arms.
