6 Picks with Hunter Parrish
“It’s just really great. It wakes up me and my skin. I got this as a gift for It’s Complicated and I’ve been using it ever since.” | “See the thing is with my hair is once it’s clean, I have to make it dirty again. This really just puts that gritty beachiness back into it.” |
“I love Chapstick, but this stuff is non-shiny, which is great.” | “Mac & cheese should be its own food group. If its on any menu anywhere, I have to get it. I’ve broken the 12 and under rule on many kid’s menu. My favorite LA mac & cheese is at a place called Hugo’s.” |
“I’ll watch anything. Entertainment and education in one…what a concept!” | “Any brand will work as long as they get me through my workout or my jog with my Siberian husky. He keeps me on my toes…literally.” |

Hunter Parrish 5
“I got voted best hair in high school. Everybody loves my hair, which I’m grateful for, but I have no idea why. There is 0 consistency to it—even if I get something perfect, it will never look the same. I do the same method everyday and it always comes out looking totally different.”

JENN STREICHER’S TOP FIVE
Most men are pretty hands-off when it comes to their grooming habits. (Irish Spring, anyone?) Groomer Jenn Streicher offers five low-key products she swears are worth upgrading to—if only for your girlfriend’s sake.
“It’s lightweight, smoothes small nicks and razor burn, and leaves behind a semi-matte finish.” | “Hands down, the best lip moisturizer that doesn’t look shiny like lip gloss.” |
“This wash-off tinted bronzing lotion gives an ultra-even all over glow to the face.” | “Great for dark circles and fine lines.” |
“An amazing hair oil! It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and smells like a man.” |

Beauty Girl: What beauty trick did you learn from your mom?
Lea Michele: To always wash my face before bed. No matter how tired I am, no matter how late I get home, I do not go to bed without fully washing my face. It really does keep the skin looking good. My mother never wears makeup, so she taught me about being minimal with makeup. Natural beauty really is better than anything.
Beauty Girl: What drugstore product do you swear by?
Lea Michele: The Venus razor! I go to CVS and stock up. I love the one with the little gel bar around it. I don’t have to shave my legs everyday because the shave lasts so long.
Beauty Girl: What products would we find in your teensiest red carpet clutch?
Lea Michele: Hand sanitizer and my lipstick.
Beauty Girl: What products do you never travel without?
Lea Michele: My Clarisonic, my face wash and my moisturizer. I also like traveling with my own shampoo—I bring Dove shampoo everywhere. I will never use anyone else’s face moisturizer and I hate using weird hotel bars of soap.
Beauty Girl: What’s your biggest beauty splurge?
Lea Michele: I would have to say getting a really good facial with Kate Somerville. I treat myself to a regular treatment plus the oxygen facial to splurge. It’s so good to take care of your body and your skin. I try to go once every two months or so.
Beauty Girl: Who is your beauty icon from the past?
Lea Michele: Barbra Streisand for her natural beauty and Ali McGraw for fashion.
Beauty Girl: Who is your current beauty icon?
Lea Michele: Penelope Cruz. I think she’s absolutely stunning.
Beauty Girl: Which of your red carpet beauty looks was your favorite?
Lea Michele: Definitely the Grammys. I wore this short, really cute, fun dress. That was the first day Mark experimented with the bangs. It was the most comfortable I’ve ever been on the red carpet. I partied all night long and I was so comfortable. I also love the Glee premiere with the Etro dress. Mark cut the bangs fully across my face and I felt so bohemian and Stevie Nicks.
Beauty Girl: If you could trade hair with anyone, who would it be?
Lea Michele: Maybe someone with a different shade then me? Like blonde or red. But I have to say…I really love my hair!
Beauty Girl: The one beauty trend you’ll never embrace and the one beauty trend you’d like to bring back?
Lea Michele: I don’t think I could ever pull off a perm! That should never come back. Or a very short hair cut. Not sure what I’d bring back…
