Besides a flattering photograph, this means they have access to a bank of beauty tools we normies could only dream of. Luckily, many of our favourite celebs are not in the business of gatekeeping and readily share their go-to beauty buys with the world. To see which beauty products have earned an A-list seal of approval, scroll below.

The coolness of the tools, plus the cream really helps with the fine lines around my eyes."
