It girl Lori Harvey is giving us the deets behind her classic beauty look. Every time we see the model, she appears to be effortlessly chic, from her style to her makeup and hair. It's no secret that her skin is flawless, and she keeps a strict skincare routine using her line SKN by LH. In her video with Allure, she uses her line's peptide eye complex and her niacinamide cream. "This just really helps give me like the perfect base, and it keeps my skin nice and hydrated. And it keeps my makeup in place all day," she said.
She also shared a beauty tip that her mom, Marjorie Harvey, gave her. "Stop using makeup wipes," she said. "She loves for me to use, like, well, I get it from her; she uses this like petroleum-based makeup remover, but it's like a cleanser as well. So it's almost like you're kind of double cleansing, but it's just so much better for your skin because, like, those makeup wipes are really harsh. And I really want to look like her when I'm her age. So I listened to whatever she says." Like they say, mother knows best.
Here's how Lori achieves a '90s soft glam.
Lori Harvey's Beauty Routine
Skn by LH Niacinamide Cream
When it comes to putting cream on your face, Lori says you should always go in an upward motion. "You got to always go upwards with the motions because we don't want to drag our faces down. We want to keep everything nice and tight," she said.
Pat McGrath Sublime Perfection Skin Fetish Foundation
"It is so good. I love it because it's nice and glowy. It has a good coverage, but it's not too too heavy," she said.
Westman Contour Stick
Next, Lori uses Westman Contour Stick to help contour her face. "We're gonna go in with this Westman contour stick, which is also so pretty," she said. "I love them because they're all about clean makeup, and this, I love the way it blends into my skin."
NARS Concealer
Lori uses two NARS concealers: one light and one dark. "So I like to wet my beauty blender with like warm water because I feel like that just really helps to melt the product into my face because I like to have a really natural, smooth looking face. And then we just kind of melt everything in together," she explained.
"So yeah, that little bit of concealer right there really just like adds to the snatch and then having the concealer kind of like right on the outer corners and then blending up appendages lifts it up."
Merit Blush Balm
"Here's where it gets fun. So I like to mix two cream blushes, which these are the Merit Blush Balms, which I love these because they feel so smooth and soft going on," she said.
Huda Beauty Setting Powder
Next, the Skn by LH founder puts on setting powder from Huda Beauty. "This has become a new favorite of mine. It's not too thick," she explained. "So it sets your makeup, and it keeps it in place, but it's not gonna like have you looking cakey or powdery, which I like."
Fenty Beauty Bronzers
Lori revealed that she likes to mix two of the Fenty Beauty Bronzer shades to get her desired look.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze
When it comes to her brows, less is more. "My eyebrows are really thick. So sometimes, I don't really like to fill them in too much," she said. After using Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze, she wrapped up her brows with her Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz pencil.
Pat McGrath Eyeshadow
Lori admitted that she's not "that professional" when it comes to her eye makeup, so she uses a simple bronze eyeshadow palate. She also took the darker bronze color and applied it on her lash line.
Urban Decay Naked Illuminating Powder
She explained that she uses an angle brush and puts the powder on the sides of her face for a "nice, warm bronzy glow."
Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara
"It is my favorite mascara. I've been using it for years. I've tried a million different mascaras, and I always come back to this one," she shared. "This is another one of my old faithfuls. I feel like it just goes on my lashes the best, and I love it because it doesn't like clump my lashes up, which I feel like a lot of mascaras do."
MADE Lip Liner and Lip Gloss
For her lips, Lori applies MADE 's lip liner, matte gloss, and, lastly, regular lip gloss for shine.
Tom Ford Highlighter
"This is another one of my favorites. I use this one every day if I'm doing my own makeup," she said.
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Setting Spray and Anastasia's Beverly Hills Dewy Set
Lori ends her beauty routine with two setting sprays. She uses Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Setting Spray and blends it in with her beauty blender. Then, Anastasia's Beverly Hills Dewy Set setting spray.

RELATED
The film follows Faith Mitchell, a wife and mother whose life is upended by a devastating loss. As she spirals into despair, it’s the love of family, friends, and God that slowly leads her back to light. And for Paula, this story wasn’t just a role—it was personal.
“It connected to a time in my life that I could really relate to,” she says. “That feeling of having lost so much and feeling like so much pain, and not knowing how to deal with the pain… and numbing out to do that.”

A Story That Hit Close to Home
Having been sober for seven years, Paula says the emotional territory was familiar. But more than anything, it brought her closer to a deeper truth.
“Once you give [the numbing] up, you have to walk in the desert alone… and that’s when I truly found faith in God.”
Turning Pain Into Purpose
While the film touches on loss and addiction, Finding Faith ultimately lives up to its title. Paula describes the acting process as cathartic—and one she was finally ready for.
“Art became healing,” she says. “That was the biggest challenge of all… but it was a challenge I wanted.”
More Than an Inspirational Thriller
Finding Faith is described as an “inspirational thriller,” with layered tones of romance, suspense, and spiritual reflection. Paula credits that dynamic blend to writer-director LazRael Lison.
“That’s what I love about Finding Faith,” she explains. “Yes, she goes on this journey, but there’s other storylines happening that help it stay entertaining.”

On-Set Magic with Loretta Devine
With a cast stacked with phenomnal talent—Loretta Devine, Keith David, Stephen Bishop—it’s no surprise that the film also came alive through unscripted moments.
“We did this kitchen scene… and Loretta changed it,” Paula shares. “She wouldn’t leave. I had to change my dance and figure out how to work with it, and it took on this whole other layer. I’m forever grateful.”
Faith When It Feels Like Night
The film leans on the biblical verse: “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” Paula says that reminder is something she’s lived.
“When you’re feeling so anxious, and you look out in the distance and see nothing there… that’s when you have to trust God’s timing.”
Divine Timing Behind the Scenes
Paula didn’t just star in the film—she produced it through her company, Third Eye Productions. And the way the opportunity came to her? Nothing short of divine.
“I said, ‘Just for one week, believe everything’s going to be perfect,’” she recalls. “That same day, my friend Charles called and said, ‘I have a film for you. It’s called Finding Faith.’ I thought I was going to throw the phone down.”
What’s Next for Paula Patton?
When asked about a dream role, Paula didn’t name a genre or a character. Her focus now is on legacy—and light.
“I want to make sure I keep making art that entertains people, but also has hope… That it has a bright light at the end to get us through this journey here on Earth.”
