Backstage Beauty: Chloe Lloyd on ‘Texas hair,’ her go-to skin tint and why Barbarella is still iconic

From humble beginnings in her hometown of Cheshire, model and influencer Chloe Lloyd is proud to be a self-made woman,

“I’m from a normal, small town and worked hard to get where I am now,” says the 31-year-old.

With over 496k followers looking at her daily style and beauty tips, Chloe’s quiet luxury aesthetic and gorgeous GRWM’s epitomise everything we love about influencers today – inspiration and zero gatekeeping. She’s regularly sharing where her favorite fashion finds and beauty must-haves are from and we love her for it.

Hello! Fashion – April-May 2024

“I’m so excited to be a Hello! Fashion cover girl. I feel like getting a cover…it’s just the best. You can put it in a frame, you can put it on your wall. I’ve always wanted to be a Hello! Fashion cover girl,” she tells us.

Now, as we reveal Chloe as Hello! Fashion‘s April-May cover star, we couldn’t help but ask Chloe for her ultimate make-up and skincare essentials and what it means for her to be a Hello! Fashion cover girls…

What’s the best part of your job?

“I love the shoots, I love the styling. I’m obsessed. I did so many modeling jobs when I first started. I can’t remember a particular one, but they were always crazy ones with crazy clothes. I remember absolutely loving it.”

If you were on a deserted island, what three beauty products would you take with you?

“That is so hard because I really love beauty products. I obviously need an SPF because I’m on a desert island but if that wasn’t needed, I’d have to have a skin tint. I really like the L’Oréal Paris Skin True Match Nude Plumping Tinted Serum, it’s so nice.

“Maybe mascara and a lip balm too. It has to be a colored lip balm though!”

“The bigger, the better. This hair? It’s full of secrets. I love it. I feel like it reminds me of Barbarella, which I love.”

Do you have a preferred beauty look?

“My favorite beauty look has to be a winged eye and a nude lip. I feel like it’s so classic and iconic.”

What beauty trends will you be taking away from the cover shoot?
