Since becoming a mom, model and Rhode Skin founder Hailey Bieber has completely transformed her morning beauty routine. Her new philosophy? Keeping things fast, effortless, and hyper-focused on healthy skin that breathes.
In a recent interview with Vogue, Hailey walked through her streamlined, everyday morning ritual. By ditching heavy foundations and heavy mascaras, she has mastered a glowing, “second-skin” look that takes just minutes to achieve.
Whether you are running after a toddler, rushing to the gym, or heading to the office, here is the exact step-by-step breakdown of Hailey Bieber’s quick morning beauty routine.
The Morning Ritual: Skipping the Cleanser
Interestingly, Hailey’s daytime routine doesn’t start with a traditional face wash. To keep her skin barrier intact, she focuses on minimal intervention in the morning.
“I don’t usually wash my face in the morning. I feel like nighttime is more so where I’m slathered and lathered and glazed and baking so that I can wake up in the morning and not have to do much.” — Hailey Bieber
Instead, her early morning wellness ritual consists of:
-
Rinsing her face with plain water
-
Using a tongue scraper
-
Brushing her teeth
-
Oil pulling
Step-by-Step: The Skincare & Makeup Prep
If she is in a massive rush, Hailey notes she will sometimes just spray her face and walk out the door. However, when she has a few minutes to spare, this is her exact multi-step routine:
1. Hydrating Facial Spray
She kicks off her skin prep with a generous misting of a good facial spray to awaken the skin and lock in immediate hydration.
2. Rhode Glazing Milk
Next comes her absolute staple: the Rhode Glazing Milk. Hailey uses this morning and night as her primary makeup prep.

The Pro-Tip: On days when she does want to wear heavy makeup, she mixes this glazing milk directly with her foundation to sheer it out, giving the skin a luminous, second-skin finish.
3. Hydrating Sunscreen
Hailey admits that finding the right SPF takes trial and error because sunscreen is the main thing that breaks her skin out. She gravitates toward milky or tinted sunscreens, making sure to raid local pharmacies whenever she visits Europe.

The Anti-Aging Hack: Don’t let your leftovers go to waste! Hailey rubs any excess sunscreen onto the backs of her hands to protect them from UV damage and premature aging while driving.
The Makeup: Ditching Foundation for Concealer
Hailey is very open about the fact that she dislikes wearing heavy daytime makeup. To let her skin breathe and showcase her natural complexion, she relies entirely on tactical concealing.
The Finishing Touches: Faux Freckles & No Mascara
To wrap up her signature model-off-duty aesthetic, Hailey relies on two highly unconventional beauty secrets.
Faux Freckles for Youthfulness
Even if she is just running out to the gym, Hailey loves using a freckle pen to add or enhance tiny dots across her nose and cheeks. She notes that accentuating freckles—whether you have them naturally or not—instantly brings a youthful, fresh-faced energy to the skin.
Skipping Daytime Mascara
You won’t find mascara in Hailey’s everyday bag. She stopped wearing it simply because she kept forgetting it in her routine, only to realize she preferred the cleaner, softer look of her face without it. Instead, she uses a lash curler to give her eyelashes a natural lift.
The Rhode Lip Contour
To finish the look, she applies a Rhode Lip Contour pen. She designed these hybrid products to bridge the gap between skincare and makeup, injecting nourishing ingredients into a natural liner that defines and adds subtle volume to the lips.
