Angel Reese's Must Haves: $13 Skin Care, Undereye Masks, and More

Angel Reese is a basketball champion, a fashion and beauty darling, a homeowner, and an entrepreneur — all before her 23rd birthday. Her career journey is as inspiring as it is rare, and even she finds some elements of her story surprising. "What surprises me most is how far confidence and staying true can take you," she shares. "It took a little girl from Baltimore who loved hoops and had big dreams to where I am today, and I hope I can continue to use my platform to empower women and girls everywhere to follow their dreams and stay unapologetically themselves, too."

She's especially passionate about inspiring women athletes as the sports category continues to reach new audiences. "Women's sports are growing, but we still have to fight to push forward," says the Chicago Sky forward. "You have to show up strong, work hard, and stay focused but also know that your voice, your look, your story — it all matters. Build your brand, protect your peace, and never shrink yourself to fit in. Be bold. Be unapologetically you."

One way Reese remains true to her authentic self is through fashion. Lovingly called the "Bayou Barbie" or "Chi Barbie" by fans (based on her college team, the Maryland Terrapins, and current team, the Chicago Sky), she lives up to her nicknames with red carpet appearances and Instagram outfit posts shared with 4.9 million followers and counting. "Fashion has always been a big part of who I am — on and off the court," she says. "My personal style is bold, confident, and unapologetic. I love switching it up, too. It's all about expressing myself and embracing my femininity and power at the same time."

Given how powerful Reese is in the realms of sports, fashion, and more, she's intentional about taking time to reset. "When I actually get a day to slow down and breathe, I'm all about rest and realignment," she reveals. "First thing? I'm sleeping in — no alarms, no schedule." She incorporates beauty into her self-care regimen as well. "I might get a facial or get my nails done," shares Reese. "I love a hot shower before my full skin routine: SheaMoisture's Coconut & Hibiscus Body Wash is my go-to. I'll follow it up with their body lotion or oil, especially if I've been traveling a lot or my skin's feeling dry."

Her favorite way to unwind? Spending time with family. "Honestly, just being with my loved ones, laughing and relaxing, is what I really value on those off days. It's about recharging my spirit so I can go hard again when I'm back on."

Ahead, she talks us through her favorite products to use whether she's prepping for a red carpet, recovering after a championship game, or spending quality time with her loved ones.
