Beauty and fashion have always gone hand in hand, and Christian Siriano just proved it once again in a newly published interview with The Strategist. While dishing on his must-have products—from food to fashion—the designer revealed his go-to hairspray, a staple he’s been loyal to for nearly two decades. Meet the TRESemmé Extra Hold Travel Size Hairspray ($3), a beauty essential with thousands of five-star ratings that Siriano keeps in “every single bag” to ensure he’s never without it.
“I always have my little TRESemmé mini Extra Hold hair spray,” he told the outlet. “I have it in every single bag, ready to go. That’s just been my signature go-to product because I’m always doing something: I’m always on, I’m always at an event, I’m always at a project, I’m always at a shoot or a fitting, and I feel like it’s something that, just for my own confidence, makes me feel good. And it is the best hair spray. Whatever anybody says, I don’t care. It lasts all day long and it’s great. TRESemmé figured it out. I think I’ve been using this hair spray probably since 2008, for real.”
But his beauty favorites don’t stop there. Siriano also gave a shoutout to another drugstore beauty product that’s earned a permanent spot in his routine: “I use a very inexpensive moisturizer, L’Oréal’s Revitalift, and I actually just really, really love the smell,” he continued. “I’ve been using this for three or four years. I like old-school classics. I love a beautiful, expensive brand, too, but I always went to these brands growing up. My mom taught me that.”
