1. She Brings Cleanser With Her

In an interview with Bustle, Thirlwall revealed her favorite beauty products. She says that she likes to carry a cleanser with her. “I have it in my bag all the time. Just because I do a lot of travelling around and if I get on the Tube or something, my skin always feels a bit gross after. So I have to have cleanser or wipes in my bag just to quickly whip out and clean my face again. I'm a bit of a clean freak. And if you get on that Bakerloo Line, hun, your skin's not thanking you for it.”

2. She Follows A Full Skincare Routine

For Thirlwall, a skincare routine is needed. "I have combination skin,” she explained in an interview with Cosmopolitan. “It’s dry and oily – so I tend to follow a full skincare routine. I always start with a face wipe to remove makeup, followed by Simple’s Moisturising Face Wash. Then I moisturise. I finish off with a face mask every couple of weeks to keep my skin hydrated."

3. She Uses Hair Oil

In her Bustle interview, Thirlwall reveals that she loves hair oil. “My hair is thirsty as f*ck,” she says. “It's because I've got naturally quite thick curly hair. It's always gagging for a bit of moisture. So I carry oil in my bag constantly, and it just keeps it healthy. It's not too heavy so it's never going to look like you've suddenly put something greasy on your hair. It's very light and lovely.”

4. She Doesn’t Rely On Makeup For Confidence

Thirlwall loves doing makeup, however her approach to it has changed. She tells Bustle that the switch happened after she gained more confidence, and shared what she’d tell her younger self “I would actually remind myself at that age that make-up doesn't have to be a mask to cover your face. It's something that I enjoy doing, it's art, and it's something that helps just elevate what’s already there.”

5. She’s Motivated

In an interview with Cosmopolitan, Thirlwall and her Little Mix bandmates shared their fitness secrets. In it, Thirlwall revealed her secrets for staying motivated. “I shout names at myself. I'll be like 'Jessica Alba', 'J-Lo'.. If you say the names, it motivates you because that's who you want to look like."
