Ella Rubin's Beauty Secrets: From Family Rituals to On-Set Realism

other · 2026-09-04

In Vogue, Ella Rubin, the star of 'Sterling Point,' reveals her beauty regimen, which combines family traditions with her own insights. She begins with her grandmother's recommendation, Vanicream's Gentle Facial Cleanser. Following a struggle with cystic acne during the actors' strike, she now opts for calming products such as Epicutis's Lipid Serum and SKIN1004's Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF 50. In the show's opening, Rubin's character Annie demonstrates a flawed skincare routine that mirrors her personality. Creator Megan Park and makeup artist Skye Tostowaryk focused on achieving a realistic teenage appearance with minimal makeup. Rubin's daily essentials include IT Cosmetics CC Cream and Fenty Beauty Match Stix, along with DIY split-end trimming and Rōz's Milk Hair Serum. Filming occurred at The West Hollywood Edition.
