It’s not enough Amal Clooney is ridiculously intelligent, successful and snagged Hollywood’s biggest bachelor, she’s also got serious class when it comes to her skincare routine and makeup looks. From her full brows to her flawless skin, these tips won’t necessarily land you a big-shot actor, but they will help you shake up your makeup routine.

BOLD LIPS: Celebrity makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury (who’s Amal’s go-to for everything from her wedding to the Golden Globes) told InStyle Amal’s a big fan of Amazing Grace, Walk of Shame and Red Carpet Red (shown here) from her Matte Revolution Lipstick line. It’s said the 3D glowing pigment formula makes the lips look “wider and fuller”.

Charlotte Tilbury’s Red Carpet Red from her Matte Revolution Lipstick range is Amal’s go-to lip shade.

FLAWLESS SKIN: For the 2015 Golden Globes, go-to makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury got Amal’s skin looking like perfection by applying Magic Cream to Amal’s entire face, followed by Wonderglow face primer then Light Wonder foundation. “I went into knowing what she likes, so I created a retro beauty look inspired by the silver screen sirens that fits her classic style,” Charlotte wrote on her website.

Arguably the most important step in the process to glowing skin, moisturiser – Amal applies Charlotte’s Magic cream formulated by her trusted make-up artist Charlotte Tilbury.

After moisturising, Amal applies Charlotte Tilbury’s Wonderglow primer to protect the skin and provide a base for longer-wearing make-up.

This lightweight, sheer foundation by Charlotte Tilbury is Amal’s favourite.

VOLUMINOUS HAIR: If there was a battle of the blow-dries between Duchess Kate and Amal, it would be a close finish. Both have big, bouncy and impossibly glossy hair. Her hair stylist Max Cole told Vanity Fair he used Philip Kingsley’s Maximizer Spray to lift her hair at the roots for her big day. And it seems it a trick she’s held on to.

POWER BROWS: Amal knows how to work her way around the Charlotte Tilbury Cara D Brow Lift brow pencil which (if you zoom is very closely) you can see she does by creating little flicks in an upward direction so they look like real hairs.

Amal’s make-up artist Charlotte Tilbury says a well-groomed eyebrow can give your entire face a lift. So it’s no surprise Amal uses Charlotte Tilbury’s Cara D Brow Lift brow pencil.

NUDE LIPS: There’s nothing like finding the perfect nude that makes your skin tone pop and for Amal that’s Charlotte Tilbury’s pinky-nude K.I.S.S.I.N.G Bitch Perfect.

A nude lipstick is a make-up kit must-have. Amal keeps in her purse Charlotte Tilbury’s pinky-nude K.I.S.S.I.N.G in Bitch Perfect.

CLASSY PERFUME: No overpowering smells, Amal is said to be a fan of Something Blue by Oscar de la Renta which has floral and citrus notes.

Light, fresh and enchanting, Amal loves this exquisite scent – which also makes a lovely bridal shower gift!
