Lady Gaga shares simple way she gives herself a boost of confidence
Lady Gaga has revealed the simple yet effective way she gives herself a boost of confidence every morning.
The 37-year-old pop superstar launched her Haus Labs make-up brand in 2019, and admitted she uses cosmetics to make her feel good after years of feeling insecure when she was younger. Gaga explained that her self-care routine was “an extension of my skincare from the morning,” and told E! News it gives her an “extra boost of confidence.” “I feel I'm able to brave whatever is coming my way because I've really taken time for myself,” she added.
Gaga said applying makeup was a “healing practice”, and said her routine was impacted by the struggles she faced as an “insecure teenager” in high school. But after discovering make-up she realised she had the “power to transform who I was”, and used it to figure out who she really was. “I realised that I had more of an ability to speak up for myself,” the Oscar winner noted. “And it had more to do with how I felt and not how I looked.”

This is about looking like you,” she stated. Gaga also picked out her favourite products from her Haus Lab brand, including the Triclone Skin Tech Hydrating Concealer - which contains niacinamide and fermented arnica to help even out skin tone - and claimed its her go-to product if she doesn’t want to wear foundation.
Gaga shared her top tips for applying the concealer, and said she likes to use it after moisturising on days where she prefers a minimal makeup look. She also pinches lip oil onto her cheeks to give her a glow, and puts bronzer on her cheeks and eyelids - and more lip oil - for a laidback look. And she confessed that just those three things - lip oil, concealer and bronzer - were her “go-to secret in the morning.”

The Oscar winner wants her fans to find their own identity with make-up (Instagram)The Poker Face hitmaker offered up some helpful beauty advice to those who were struggling to find their own make-up identity, and pleaded with them to “trust yourself” when it comes to having an uncomplicated relationship with beauty. “Whatever inspiration is coming your way, whatever feeling you're having, just trust your instincts,” she explained.
Away from skincare, the singer/actress is currently celebrating a huge milestone in her career, as it’s been 15 years since her debut album The Fame was released. The album featured her hit singles including Just Dance, Poker Face, Love Game and Paparazzi, and earned Gaga her first-ever Grammy nominations, with the singer winning home Best Electronic/Dance Album.
