Sophie Habboo may be best known for starring on Made in Chelsea, her two chart-topping podcasts (one alongside husband, Jamie Laing and another with BFF Melissa Tattam) and her signature dry humour - but its her unwavering commitment to glowy skin which has me in a chokehold.

The 29-year-old is hailed for her gleamy complexion, which looks like she forever guzzles green smoothies, gets eight hours of sleep, and never misses a facial appointment. Although she’s no stranger to a 10-step skincare routine and regularly touts everything from infrared saunas to cryo face tools for looking good, surprisingly one of her ‘all-time favourite beauty tricks’ is thanks to one cult-favourite beauty product.

When chatting to Sophie about her beauty favourites for achieving her famous glow, she put me onto a little secret which has changed my entire make-up routine - Rodial’s Liquid Blush, £39.

The podcast host shared, ‘My favourite make-up product is the Rodial Blush Drops, they are so good. Whenever I wear it, people are like, 'What is it? What do you have on your face?' It's a secret little product that not a lot of people know about. They're my main make-up hack for the lit within look.’

Sophie's favourite shade is Frosted Pink.

Sophie’s sister and resident make-up artist, Georgia Habboo previously detailed on an Instagram story how the Rodial Blush Drops are a non-negotiable step when doing glam - whether that's for herself, Sophie or any of her clients - so much so, that she used the ‘Frosted Pink’ hue on Sophie for her wedding day.

What makes it so special? The Rodial Blush Drops deliver a natural flush to the cheeks whilst doubling up as a silky highlighter which looks gorgeous when it catches the light. If you prefer a matte finish you will hate this, but if like me, you'll do anything for a glass-like glow, this will fast become your new favourite blush technique.

The glossy blush is packed with skin-loving vitamin-E and can be used on the cheekbones, the bridge of nose and the cupid's bow.

The blush also packs an impressive colour payoff meaning you only need a few drops of product to achieve the Sophie Habboo Blush. Use it sparingly and it means one bottle will last you ages.
