In the glitzy world of celebrities, it's refreshing to hear that they encounter the same hurdles as the rest of us. Sofia Richie Grainge, freshly embarking on her pregnancy journey, found herself facing a familiar foe: hormonal acne. "Since my high school days, I hadn't grappled with hormonal acne," she shares. "It's turned into the most significant change I've had to navigate recently—managing the unexpected oiliness and breakouts."

Pregnancy heralded a wave of skin challenges for Richie Grainge, prompting a complete overhaul of her skincare regimen. "I've had to start from scratch," she admits. "My skin has been paradoxically oily yet dry, forcing me to find a delicate balance that suits it." In her quest for clarity, she found solace in SkinCeuticals, and has since partnered with them globally. "My dermatologist recommended the Simply Clean Cleanser by SkinCeuticals," she reveals. Now, Richie Grainge has adapted her routine to washing her face three times daily, a significant shift from her previous twice-a-day habit.

Richie Grainge's influence, spanning fashion, beauty, and home decor, surged following her April 2023 nuptials to Elliott Grainge, capturing the hearts of TikTok users and Gen Z alike. Despite her unique lifestyle, she finds a sense of belonging on TikTok, often diving into beauty hacks. "I won't deny it: I'm someone who loses hours scrolling through TikTok, watching girls test out various beauty tricks," she confesses. "I've even tried Meredith Duxbury's makeup method while sitting at my vanity."

While acknowledging her beauty approach diverges from Duxbury's famed foundation technique, Richie Grainge appreciates the plethora of online beauty inspirations. "The diverse makeup styles out there are truly inspiring. They may not all be my cup of tea, but they're fun to experiment with at home," she says.

Richie Grainge has emerged as a refreshing voice against overdone beauty looks, advocating for a more natural aesthetic, even on her wedding day. "Becoming a figure in the beauty industry was unexpected, but I'm grateful," she reflects. "Truthfully, I never saw myself as heavily into makeup before my wedding."

Her journey through the vast beauty content online has not only bolstered her confidence in her beauty choices but also honed her message to others, now with her daughter in mind. "My goal is to encourage women to celebrate their natural beauty rather than hiding behind layers of makeup," she states. "I'm passionate about empowering women to feel comfortable in their skin, whether they prefer a full face of makeup or a more minimalistic approach. Here are my tips for embracing the 'less is more' beauty philosophy.
