Rachel Brosnahan on Why Skipping Makeup Actually Makes Her Feel More Empowered

The biggest beauty tip Brosnahan has taken from The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is the power of a bold lip. "On Mondays, I get picked up as early as 3:45 in the morning to start shooting, and there's no way you're getting enough sleep from Sunday into Monday, so I'm not at my cutest when I arrive on set," she laughed. "I have a lot of help from the hair and makeup team, thankfully, but honestly I don't feel alive or awake until I put that bright red lipstick on. Even when you're so tired and don't feel like putting on a face, or doing anything with your hair, you can roll out of bed and look presentable if you throw on a bold lip. It works wonders."
As for which formula they keep on set, there are two. "We've been using one from YSL since the beginning, for the last three years, but then recently we've been experimenting with the Ilia Colour Block High Impact Lipstick ($28). There are a couple different shades of Ilia reds that are really beautiful and organic. It stays all day — that's why we've been using it. You put it on in the morning, and we hardly have to touch it up."
