Dua Lipa released her third album, Radical Optimism, last month, and her music is the soundtrack to our lives. Her hit singles include “Don’t Start Now”, “New Rules”, “Houdini”, and “Dance The Night”, which was on the soundtrack for Barbie. Lipa recently hit the gym with a friend, and shared a photo of the two of them on her Instagram story. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Dua Lipa stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.
Lipa shared her haircare secrets with Vogue. “I end up getting it cut quite often because it quickly reaches that awkward length between short and long. I end up going for trims whenever I get the chance, but I’m really bad at treatments. I never have time or a place to kind of sit with a hair mask on. I just wash my hair every other day, use a nice mousse and a texture spray, and then that’s it.“
Lipa has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She tells Vogue that she likes to have facials done. “I’ve found some good facialists in different places, that people have recommended. I don’t have that much time to go so it’ll be whenever I get the chance, usually once every couple of months. In London, there’s a place called Pfeffer Sal which I love. There they’re lovely and it’s just been great.”
Lipa does a lot of traveling, which can take a toll on her skin. Luckily, she has come up with tricks to keep it healthy on the road. Lipa shared them with Vogue. “I also know to drink electrolytes to make sure you’re hydrated. When I’m traveling, I’ll always take a few face-masks on flights. That’s a good tip I’ve learnt – a game changer.”
Lipa shared her typical skincare routine with Vogue. “I have to take my make-up off. It’s a very rare occasion where I just fall asleep with it on. When I was younger I never used to care. I was the kind of person that would just wash my face with soap and call it a day. But when I turned 18, I started really taking care of my skin and being really gentle. Now I use a lot of serums: I have one that I put on before I go to bed, and a different one for the morning that I use after a skin cleanser to take off any make-up. I’ll also use an oil, sometimes a homemade one, because my skin gets really dry the next morning if I don’t.”
Lipa shared some of her wellness secrets with Refinery29. She says that she likes to make some of her own meals. “I enjoy cooking and being with my favourite people. With all the running around I do for work, it’s nice to come home, slow down and connect with the food that nourishes my body and life.”
