Keira Knightley : Inside my beauty bag | Bazaar UK

From rising star to leading lady, Keira Knightley continues to inspire us both on-screen and off, whether playing strong female protagonists, speaking out about the unfair demands of motherhood, or inadvertently giving masterclasses in elegance while walking some (very select) red carpets.

As she approaches her 38th birthday this month, Knightley discusses her interest in the way women are perceived as they grow older via her recent Harper’s Bazaar cover interview. With the widespread judgement surrounding famous women who age naturally – and those who seemingly don’t, she questions: “How are we, culturally, meant to age?”.

In our exclusive video with Knightley, in which she reveals the contents of her beauty bag, the actress reflects upon her relationship with anti-ageing tools, how she adopted her signature make-up style, and what she hopes her daughters (Edie, seven and Delilah, four), grow-up to interpret the notion of ‘beauty’ to be.

She's obviously so rich and products like La Mer and Sisley don't put much of a dent in her wealth, but she still acknowledges how expensive they are because she understands the value of things and money 😊 love her❤

[fayes]

I love that she is a Chanel ambassador but she's not shoving Chanel into our faces like other beauty ambassadors. She's always so authentic and genuine.

[rubydoo]

She talks like we're good friends and she's just telling us the gossip. I love it!

[shraddhanaidu]

Keira is a timeless beauty. Such a breath of fresh air in this era of spidery lashes and lip fillers.

I was surprised by how refreshing (and beautiful) it is to see a celebrity with animated facial expressions and no frozen eyebrows! It must be impossible for actresses under pressure to not age and yet at the same time show subtle + dramatic changes of expression for their job, so I don't mean to put down the celebs who do go for that. But it's a bit of a wake up moment to realise how used to seeing these altered faces I've become! She looks so beautiful ❤️

[sunny_zeddy_cy]

such an intelligent woman and quite a humble person considering her fame, wealth and natural stunning beauty, i adore Keira she's one of my favourite actresses of all time

[martharosenthal]

I have always admired her she is an extraordinary actress who never tried to show off or boast about herself. I love that she uses beauty products that seem simple to use and puts on only a small amount. You can not buy class but she oozes it.

[naraazizapellman]

She can just sit there and just breath. And I will watch it on loop. I adore her that much.

[mrsgingernoisette]

She is beautiful inside and out, she's a talented young woman and she does not try to look like a tiktok teen, she knows what looks good on her.. Her beauty approach is to die for. QUEEN LIZZIE

[ayshaahmed]

Love her! It seems like a genuine make up bag of a one of the top actresses. Normally now what in my bag is always a ridiculous ad for a brand.

[cuzimjennthatswhy]

Kierra been popping in and out of the spotlight in this last decade. It’s always great to see her and I especially love her talking about her beauty routine. She’s always been a less is more kinda gal

[lucybillington]

Love her. She is a modern day Audrey Hepburn. So refreshingly down-to-earth.

[baobao-ydlx]

Bazaar UK thanks for giving me the Keira Knightly content i need. This is your best 'Inside my beauty bag' video ever because Keira is just sooo genuine and beautiful.

[annetteneubauer]

I have never seen her looking as beautiful as she does in this video!!

[bellabastien]

Oh Keira, such an elegant and genuine woman ❤️❤️ I love how real she is, inside and out!

[stepherssays]

Her voice is so lively, yet comforting here. Like you're talking to a close friend. She's beautiful.

[janecadousteau]

She is the absolute best, and really honest beauty tips- thank god. Love her.

[fionafrazer]

Such an incredibly beautiful and genuine personality. Love her to pieces! PS - her US accent in the Boston Strangler was flawless - not a Bostonian accent, but an anywhere US accent. Amazing!
