Shay Mitchell has come a long way since her Pretty Little Liars days. While she’s still known for turning heads on the red carpet, the mom of two has embraced a more grounded, low-key approach to beauty — especially when it comes to her everyday makeup routine.
“As I’ve gotten older, I have less time,” Mitchell exclusively tells PEOPLE. “I used to do full glam, but I don’t do all that anymore.” Now, simplicity is key, and her current go-to look is as low-maintenance as it is budget-friendly.
As a longtime fan and official partner of Maybelline, Mitchell relies on just two products to get out the door feeling confident and pulled together: Maybelline’s Sky High Mascara and the brand’s 004 Lifter Gloss. “I only keep a few things in my makeup bag — just the essentials,” she explains. “It’s super simple.”
At under $10 each, both products deliver serious impact without draining your wallet. The result? A polished, effortless finish in seconds.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara
“Mascara, gloss, done. Instant polish without the fuss,” Mitchell adds. It’s a pared-down routine perfect for busy mornings, travel days, or anytime you want to feel a little more put-together without going full glam.
Her first step is this viral Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara, which lives up to the hype, delivering serious length, lift, and volume to lashes with zero clumps. It’s flexible brush coats every lash for a lightweight, buildable finish that lasts all day — great for low-maintenance mornings or a quick refresh before heading out.
Maybelline Lifter Gloss in 004 Silk
The Lifter Gloss in the shade Silk — a rosy neutral — is Mitchell’s go-to for a polished pout where gloss meets hydration. Infused with hyaluronic acid, it smooths, plumps, and adds a sheer wash of color with a high-shine finish. Whether worn solo or layered over lip liner, it delivers just enough glam with no fuss.
Shay Mitchell’s two-step method proves you don’t need a dozen products to look fresh and confident. Whether you’re streamlining your routine or just want to try her effortless glow-up trick, Maybelline’s Sky High Mascara and 004 Lifter Gloss are the under-$10 MVPs worth adding to your bag.
