Coco Gauff s Favorite Sunscreen Doesn t Leave a White Cast

Hi, Vogue, it s Coco Gauff here

and I m gonna walk you through my everyday skincare

and makeup routine.

I have oily skin

so when I wake up I look like a grease ball.

This is what I m gonna use.

This is travel version cause I m always on the road.

And I m not gonna lie, I m not one of those people

that do the whole 60-second spiel.

You know, I just do it till it feels clean.

I m usually waking up 15 minutes

before I have to go somewhere.

[lively music]

Now, this is like something I found recently on TikTok Shop

and it s like the best thing ever.

It s like these JiYu toning pads.

So it comes with these like tweezers.

It s supposed to be for brightening.

And I definitely think it does that

and I also think it just helps get that extra grime

that you might ve missed after washing your face.

TikTok Shop is the best because you get real reviews.

Like you see the person do the video

and you re like okay, they can t like lie on a video.

At least, I mean, maybe they do

and I m just getting scammed.

But this is the real deal.

I definitely do enjoy doing my skincare.

It just feels like a form of self-care,

especially when we re on the road

and I m always rushing.

I just feel like this is like my 5, 10 minutes

to just calm down and think

about what my intentions are for the day.

And yeah, just feeling good about myself, reminding myself

that I m beautiful.

This is the Rhode Skin Glazing Milk

and I think it just gives you

that moisture for the morning time.

I m lucky that I ve always had pretty clear skin.

I don t really struggle with acne or things like that,

but I don t like having dull skin.

And so when I do my routine,

I just feel like I look happier and look brighter.

[Coco laughing]

This is the holy grail.

I use this everywhere, face, body.

[lively music continues]

And this is something I ve gotten better with now

is applying SPF.

I m not gonna lie, when I was younger, I didn t do that.

I didn t really know the importance of it

until later on in life.

And the sunscreen La Roche-Posay I think is the best.

Being a woman with darker skin, it s hard to find sunscreens

that don t leave that like white cast on your face.

And this doesn t do that

and it also doesn t leave you like super greasy.

[lively music continues]

One thing about me, when I m 50 years old,

I wanna be looking like I m 30.

So I try to make sure I put the sunscreen on

and I reapply basically

after every practice or every two hours.

Apparently the neck is like the first sign of aging.

So make sure you put sunscreen on your neck

and behind your ears, bro.

It s really important.

So I ll put it behind my ears too.

I don t always do this encore

cause it ll leave my hands sweaty,

but when I m driving, behind the hands.

So this is my tennis makeup bag

that I put all my makeup stuff in.

We re gonna prime our skin.

This is Secure The Sweat.

I m a sweater, girl.

When I m nervous, I sweat.

When I m shy, I sweat and when I m happy, I sweat.

So this is important for me.

This just helps me secure the oily part of my face.

I put this one all over.

And then we also have another ONE/SIZE product.

This one is called the Oil Sucker.

It literally does exactly what it says.

I only apply it in my like problem areas.

In tennis, if you wanna wear makeup you can wear makeup.

I know Serena has worn eyeliner.

I think Venus still does the eyeliner.

You can wear a full beat if you want to.

I just sweat too much and like makeup would be all over.

I know the WNBA girlies kill it down with the beats.

If I could wear makeup I would.

And I do have a cute outfit

to take away the attention from my face.

It s Vanessa Myers Skin Tint.

I m not a a foundation girl cause I m always in a rush.

So I need something that can blend.

Put it a little bit faster.

My skin color is always changing

so sometimes I have to lighten this up

or sometimes it s perfect.

Depends on what part of the world I m playing tennis in.

My favorite place to play tennis is New York City

but my favorite city is Paris.

But my favorite place I play tennis in

that is not New York City has been Auckland, New Zealand

just because I don t think I ve ever been somewhere

as beautiful as Auckland or Waiheke Island.

And you can literally like, look at that, bro.

It looks like my skin. [lively music continues]

I plan my outfits for tournaments well in advance

just because I like to know what I m wearing

and I m getting my nails done.

This is not my US Open manicure

but there ll be something different

to match the outfit for that.

And then also my hair, like I just got my hair done

and I know when all the three things are done,

which is very rare but for grand slams I try

to make sure they re all three done,

I feel the best on court.

All right, now we re gonna get our beauty blender wet.

Jackie Aina, Alissa Ashley, Mone Mcmichael,

all of them have basically taught me how to do my makeup,

especially being like a young Black girl.

Like, long time ago, I didn t know what to do.

I didn t know how to like color match my skin,

that we had to do things a little bit differently.

So they taught me a lot when it comes to that.

[lively music continues]

If you look at my face naturally,

this part of my face is lighter

and then this part is darker.

So when I put makeup on, I just want to match that

and I like to put it over my eyelids too

and then we ll just blend that out.

And I have hyperpigmentation on my upper lip

so I like to put concealer there too to help out with that.

I don t know why it s such a big deal what women choose

to do with their on-court or off-court looks.

People will tell me like, Oh,

cause I talk about my outfits a lot,

people will be like, Oh, you should spend more time

on the court than your outfits.

And I m like, I m a human.

Like tennis is what I do, but it s not who I am.

And I like to express my way just like any other person

would like to express themselves.

And for me that s just showing up

on court being the best version of myself.

But I definitely think if women wanna do that,

they should be celebrated

and not persecuted for it, period.

[Coco chuckling]

Now, this blush, Rare Beauty Worth changed my whole life

because I used to hate blush.

I was like I m never gonna wear blush.

And then y all know this went viral everywhere

and I was like okay, let me see what it s about.

And now I m a blush girl.

Selena Gomez made me a blush girl.

This is literally you just need a little dot.

I like to use my fingers to blend it

cause I feel like the beauty blender soaks up the product

too much and this is definitely something you have

to build up on.

I m gonna put a little bit more

cause I feel like I need more.

Every day is like a test trial.

I don t know, you know, how much blush I wanna use.

I m gonna do three dots because I m feeling confident.

When I m getting ready,

I m basically always listening to music.

Something about getting ready just feels empowering.

Realer is the name of the song.

She s like, I keep it realer than real.

I love that song and I listen to that song pre-match too.

We re gonna do contour this Fenty Beauty.

I m not gonna lie, I m not a contouring expert

so I just try my best to copy on what the girlies do online.

And I just like a little bit just to bring some color back.

As you guys can see, it is fighting for its life.

I ve had it for forever.

And sometimes when I forget my lip liner,

I ll use it as lip liner too.

And that s a hack. [lively music continues]

And we re back with ONE/SIZE.

If you have oily skin, ONE/SIZE is the brand.

And I take this little thing and I put like a little bit

and then I just put it under the eye.

I just use a little bit

cause we have about three more powders we re gonna use.

Yeah, when I tell you I have oily skin, I have oily skin.

[lively music continues]

Now we re gonna come to our second powder.

This is another ONE/SIZE product.

And I just take this brush and just dig in.

And this is like all over.

You just gotta put this all over.

You re just attacking like,

you know how Billie Eilish washed her face

in one of the Vogue videos?

This is my equivalent.

We re gonna bronze, Juvia s Place.

This can get dangerous if you use too much.

So I just like to, I don t know,

I see people do this so I do that too.

Bronzing I think makes the biggest difference in my face

cause I just felt like look at that.

Like my jawline looks good.

This is e.l.f.

As you guys can see, a lot of the stuff I use

is either drugstore or Fenty.

This is the one that I favorite but I broke it.

So we re using this one.

Do not put your blush in check luggage.

I ve learned my lesson.

And one thing about me, I m gonna use my products

until they re done.

I don t buy new makeup until they re done

cause I m trying to be less wasteful.

And now the blush is popping.

Like I love that.

And this is the Match Stix from Fenty Beauty.

I just do a little thing like that. Same on this side.

[lively music continues]

The best makeup advice I ve ever been given is less is more.

I realize I don t need a lot of foundation.

Yeah, and also I learned that, you know,

you could still have a good looking face

without doing all the techniques that the pros do.

We re just gonna take our beauty blender.

Whenever you mess up, you just take your beauty blender

with your leftover skin tint

and you just blend it and then it goes back.

It gets muted down.

I m lucky that I do have like thicker eyebrows

so I really don t need to do much.

I ll use like a facial shaver to do my eyebrow.

So I ll just clean em up on my own,

like hold it up and then do, do, do, do, do, do.

I ve never gotten my brows professionally cleaned up

just because my mom, she was one of those 90s babies

that overdid it and now she has no brow left.

And so I m terrified of that happening to me.

So I just don t want that to happen.

This is the Benefit brow pencil.

I just don t really do that much.

But I feel like wherever there s like gaps,

I just like put it in, fill it up.

And the winning part is just something I ve always,

I feel like manifested in my life.

So it s like okay, I ve seen this vision over

and over again for how many years?

But I don t know, I just never imagined the crowd with it.

It feels crazy. [Coco chuckling]

Well, I think when I was younger,

again being a young Black girl in the sport,

I didn t really take pride in my hair

so I just would just straighten it, straighten it

just to match whatever I felt the beauty standard was

around me at the time.

So when I reached the age of fifth, or no, I was 14

and I was like, okay, I got box braids for the first time

and I don t know, I just felt so empowered

and I literally said,

I m going to do every hairstyle that I want to do

to showcase to another girl that she does not need

to straighten her hair to feel beautiful.

Nothing wrong with straight hair

cause I do love me a bust down sometimes.

But also I think it s important that you embrace,

you know, all your texture.

And today I have braids and some curls out.

Serena was that representation for me.

She had the beads in her hair,

she had the braids in her hair,

she had blonde, she did colors.

And so I was like okay, I wanna be that for somebody else.

And also I have a little attachment

cause the first time I did this hairstyle in my life,

I won my first grand slam.

I m not superstitious but, you know,

maybe it had something to do with it.

I don t know. [Coco chuckling]

Okay, so now we re using Brow Gel Benefit 24-Hour.

[lively music continues]

This is our last powder.

This is the Fenty Beauty Universal Powder.

Best powder in the world for touch-ups.

And this is the one I have in my purse.

Usually if you see me, I have this in my purse

and my lip gloss.

By the way, you guys don t know this

but we re currently at Arthur Ashe Stadium right now

in a suite filming this beauty routine.

And that just basically shows you how busy my life is

that we couldn t even get to a hotel room to do this.

So this is so from my queen, Serena Williams, WYN Beauty,

I love her liners.

Okay, I m about to get back up close and personal.

One thing I love about my lips

is they have like a natural liner like here just naturally.

So I just kind of try to follow that.

[lively music continues]

Fenty gloss, lip gloss [lively music continues]

and literally just looks like my lips but glammed up.

I like to do setting spray

but this one is in ONE/SIZE with SPF.

[lively music continues]

I get setting spray cause it just locks you in.

And I like to do it like two times.

[spray hissing]

It has got a strong smell. [Coco laughing]

All right, and this is the Too Faced mascara.

This is a hack.

When you put your mascara to not get on your lid,

you just lift your head up.

My best friend taught me this when I was super young.

And now to do the bottom lashes, you do the opposite.

Now, this is gonna make me look like Megamind

cause I have a big forehead.

I should do him one year for Halloween.

If you don t know, I love Halloween, so maybe I need

to be Megamind one year, but like a hot version of him.

And then we re gonna do one more on the top

because I like my lashes long.

You know what?

Since we re here, I m gonna take you guys to the court.

Okay, let s go to the court,

to the best stadium in the world, in my opinion.

And that is Arthur Ashe Stadium.

[crowd talking indistinctly]

Thank you, guys so much for joining

and I hope you guys enjoyed

and be sure to check me out on this soon.
