Rapper Nicki Minaj has revealed her secret that she uses to perfect her skin. Known for her colourful style and piles of bright makeup, Nicki admits she is often prone to breakouts but she tries to keep her skin in control by sipping on Aloe Vera water. She says that the drink doesn’t taste nice but the results are worth it, and she believes she sees a visible difference in her complexion:
“I definitely wouldn’t say [my skin is] flawless! If I fall asleep with my make-up on, I’ll definitely have a breakout. And I’ve been drinking Aloe Vera water. It doesn’t taste nice, but it works.”
Opening up on how she applies her makeup usually, Nicki says she always puts on her eyeliner before she applies lashes. She also adds that she has a special trick for making her eyes look bigger and she uses liquid eyeliner to create a widening effect:
“I always make sure I have perfect my eyeliner before I apply lashes. I have really small eyes so a liquid liner helps open them up and disguise the lashline.”
Nicki recently launched her second fragrance named Minajesty and says she believes it has a unique blend of ingredients which makes it original and she doesn’t think there are others quite like it on the market right now:
“I’ve never smelled anything like it! It’s feminine with fresh florals and peach, but then there are vanilla and musk notes that give it a bit of mystery and darkness.”
