Made In Chelsea Hair & Beauty
We rundown our favourite hair and beauty looks of the girls (and boys!) from Made In Chelsea.
Rex FeaturesAward-Winning
As the cast of MIC celebrate their BAFTA TV win, Louise Thompson steals the show with super-glossy side-swept ombre waves. We love her look.

Who’s the hunk with the shorter new ‘do? Wait, it’s only Ollie Locke. The formerly long-haired reality TV star was barely recognizable, as he made his debut with a slicked-back bob.
Wenn60s Icon
Millie Mackintosh trials a new look on the set of Made In Chelsea, showing off a high-rise beehive. We love this 60s style on the brunette beauty.

Caggie Dunlop opts for an easy, mid-length down-do for a London gig. Simply chic!
PA PhotosLong ‘n’ Lovely
Caggie Dunlop immediately became our spring hair icon at the Titanic 3D premiere in London in March 2012 when she debuted these longer locks complete with loose waves. What. A. Dream.

OR you could always follow red carpet maverick Gabriella Ellis’ lead who positively floored us with this fruit pastille lolly dip-dye at the same premiere. Is it wrong that we kind of really love it?

But it's often fail-safe Hollywood glamour that the girls usually plump for on the red carpet and you could have knocked us down with a feather when Caggie Dunlop ramped up the glam-stakes at a bash last year with fully-loaded curls, long lashes and a little fur collar – Elizabeth Taylor eat your heart out.

Or you could take direction from Quality Street heiress, Millie Mackintosh who embodied retro Hollywood glamour with the perfect bouncy blow-out complete with lips to match her dress. Huzzah![b]

As a housemate of the inimitable Ollie Locke – he of perennial neon tan and long, chestnut locks – there’s no doubt that there’s some serious pressure when it comes to the hair and beauty regime for Francesca ‘Cheska’ Hull. Indeed, it proves she’s more than a match for her tangerine-tinted friend when she put her long, blonde tresses to work in classic and utterly gorgeous side-swept curls. [b]

Cheska’s BFF Alexandra ‘Binky’ Felstead became our hair and beauty icon early on with her nonchalant styling and minimal make-up but proving that she can do glam as good as the rest of ‘em, Binks has been known to work the perfect glossy blow-dry too - complete with dewy skin and smoky eyes.[b]

As one of the more experimental ones with her look, we can always rely on chanteuse Gabriella Ellis (c’mon, sing it with us now: “We Gotta Fiiiiighhhttt...”) to mix it up a bit on the red carpet and we weren’t disappointed when, teamed with signature long curly waves and lashings of sequins, she went for full-on inky-lined Cleopatra eyes at a premiere.
Rex FeaturesHollywood Glamour
When she’s not clashing with former BFF Millie Mackintosh, Rosie Fortescue can be seen going all old school glam on us too. Pictured here with side-swept brunette waves, long lashes and a red lip, we’re a big fan of Rosie’s look which always has something of the rock chic about it. Ride on sista.

As the show’s resident fashion designer it’s probably no surprise that Amber can do retro glamour to a T, as well. This look is undoubtedly our favourite: with 50s-inspired dark toffee locks and natural make-up, complete with that Americana jacket, our Amber looked like she’d just walked off last season’s Miu Miu catwalk.

And when you think of pure, unadulterated glamour, how can Chelsea lothario and banker Spencer Matthews not spring to mind. Just look at this early MIC ‘do he was sporting – like a modern day Gordon Gekko. One word: shexxxy.
Rex FeaturesOff-Duty Beauty
Despite being on promotional duties at the time, we loved how Mills-Mack (bare with us, we’re road-testing it) kept her hair and make-up look super low-key with flawless skin, dark lashes and her hair left to dry au naturel.
Rex FeaturesOff-Duty Beauty
Caggie quickly won us over with her boho style and less ‘done’ take on everything she wore, which has translated to her hair and beauty looks too. We love the natural-looking make-up, and gently tousled hair which is kept face-framingly chic with thick, long lashes and a darker brow.
Rex FeaturesOff-Duty Beauty
We love it when Cheska lets her naturally thick mop of blonde locks do the talking which is why we adored this off-duty style complete with bronze tan, beachy, mussed up tresses and just a slick of eyeliner along the water line.
Rex FeaturesOff-Duty Beauty
Even glamazon Gabby can do pared-down when she needs to and this shot was out and out summer chic for us. Leaving her extensions at home, we were totally smitten with Gabriella’s subtly dip-dyed locks teased into loose, unfussy curls with the whole thing topped off with just a brush of bronzer and smudgy kohl-lined eyes.
Rex FeaturesOff-Duty Beauty
Despite being the pantomime villain in the last season, Rosie has always had a place in our hearts since uttering one of MIC’s immortal lines: “Francis your mask looks like a knob on your face.” That aside, we also dig her off-duty style too which often involves keeping her long waves loose around her shoulder and just a few slicks of mascara on the lashes. Girl after our own heart.
Rex FeaturesOff-Duty Beauty
We love it when the A-List prove they’re just like us. Ms. Atherton scored a hair and beauty home-run for us leaving her look bare-faced and beautiful with some super-sexy bedhead hair.
Rex FeaturesOff-Duty Beauty
Not to be outdone though, honourary male, Ollie Locke more than proved his hair credentials when he was snapped with ah-mazing beachy locks, which somehow, appear to have kept their gloss. Modern man, ey. (OTT costume jewellery optional.)
Rex FeaturesStraight Up
Ah Millie – let us list the ways we love your glossy caramel locks. Never one to veer too far away from her signature centre-parted style, we had to admire the way she’s styled her shorter crop. Keeping the lengths straight from almost root to tip, Mills gave the look some much-need shape with a few non-committal curls at the end. We’re also big fans of the 60s-inspired liner. Full marks to Millie!
Rex FeaturesStraight Up
But there’s something to be said for just a quick run over the hair with your straightening irons, a la Cheska Hullwhose look once again feels care-free and fabulous - while we love a bit of that metallic orange gloss on the lip.
Rex FeaturesEasily one of favourite looks on Binky ever. Perfectly showing off her flawless chocolate brown locks with enviable amounts of root-lift, this is also a make-up triumph too. Channelling something of the Brigitte Bardot with this one, when this pic landed on our desk we couldn’t get enough of her dark, smouldering eyes and baby pink pout.
Rex FeaturesStraight Up
Gabs’ long mane of perfectly coloured locks has quickly become her statement and probably no-one else in the cast does poker-straight tresses like her. With mirror-shine glossiness to them, maxi-length and one of the best looking dip-dye jobs we’ve ever seen, we hold our hands up to this music maven: girl done good.
Rex FeaturesStraight Up
Rosie Fortescue is queen of glam-grunge on Chelsea and while she saves the curls for events, we’re more likely to see her rocking a silky, sleek and smooth shock of straight hair on the show. And more often than not, with a blood red lip too. FYI, we’re totally playing copy cat with that whole matching lip and leather jacket thing.
Rex FeaturesStraight Up
Could we love this look much more? Unlikely. Usually one to sport - at the very least - a wave or two through the mid-lengths, we loved this straight and styled look on Amber which perfectly showcased her cute and choppy ends. Plus, the natural freckles here are nothing short of adorable. Amber - 1, rest of the world - nada.
Rex FeaturesSloaney Pony
We love it when the MIC girls push the boat out a bit and mix it up with their style, which is exactly what Cags did here. Letting her racy dress do the talking, Ms. Dunlop did the classic half-up, half-down routine with her hair, pulling the front back across the crown into an unstructured up do. The flawless skin, with just a hint of blush are the perfect accompaniment to those look-at-me spidery lashes. Love.
Rex FeaturesSloaney Pony
Woah mama! When Cheska stepped out on the red carpet last year, we were totally blown away with her picture-perfect up do. Channelling a similar half up, half down affair as her co-star Caggie before her, Cheska’s perfectly tousled and glossy side-swept locks were head-turningly gorgeous – while the blue dress really made her own peepers pop with colour too. What. A. Stunner.
Rex FeaturesSloaney Pony
Lest we forget though, these girls are not only battling it out with their female cast mates, but their male ones too and in a show of hair war defiance Mr. Ollie Locke showed off an up-do too – at the premiere of War Horse. Looking like a 17th century dandy/an extra from Interview With A Vampire/Louis VI – there’s something undeniably baroque ‘n’ roll with this low-slung ponytail.
Rex FeaturesGirl With A Curl
Oh. Em. Gee. These two could totes be twins. Doing strikingly similar things with their locks, we not only adore Cags sexy Grecian dress here but the minimal make-up, just framing her eyes with long, thick mascara-clad lashes.
Rex FeaturesGirl With A Curl
Running with a Madonna in Desperately Seeking Susan/Carrie Bradshaw-inspired hairdo, Cheska went for super-tight voluminous curls with a touch of the Eighties at the British Comedy Awards. Complete with dramatic false lashes and a perfect pink smile, we enjoyed the more is more look for a change.
Rex FeaturesBoy With A Curl... Sort Of.
And speaking of Eighties, enter George Michael circa Faith – I mean, Proudlock, who works a cowlick curl like no other. Just look at those honey-hued waves...
Rex FeaturesGirl With A Curl
Working red lips – once more – Rosie Fortescue puts some bounce into fine sleek locks with some large barrelled curls and lashes laden with lengthening mascara. Nice one.
PA PhotosGirl With A Curl
Ooh la la! Proving that your curls don’t have to be Shirley Temple-style corkscrews, Amber’s modern take on the look means relaxed side-parting and a bit of surf spray can give that super chic look. We’re definitely channelling this in everyday life, forthwith.
