Alix Earle

If you’re a member of #BeautyTok in any capacity, even just a casual scroller, you know the name Alix Earle. Seemingly everyone knows her name (even Barstool bros)—and it feels like she exploded overnight. The 22-year-old University of Miami senior and model racked up followers in the millions thanks to her no-holds-barred, unfiltered “Get Ready with Me” (GRWM) videos on TikTok, where she goes through her makeup routine while candidly talking about everything from Miley Cyrus concerts to work trips (like thatTarte trip to Dubai) to partying with her friends to her relationship status. Her social media growth is truly astounding, and she has real power when it comes to selling out products—for better or for worse.

Earle’s makeup routine—and her recaps of her nights out—immediately caught the attention of TikTok users, who watched every video she posted like it was their favorite TV show. She tends to go for a contoured, bronzed look with feathery brows, glossy rose lips and even a smattering of faux freckles from time to time. Soon, TikTokers were replicating Earle’s routine for themselves with the same products. If you were trying to get the viral Drunk Elephant D-Bronzi drops before Earle started using them in her videos, good luck, because they’re impossible to find in part thanks to her stamp of approval; basically every product she touches turns to viral gold. 


Below, an exhaustive list of the makeup products Alix Earle uses in her TikTok videos.
