Kylie Minogue,celebrity style Kylie Minogue red carpet beauty

By Jessica Hopper
After a lengthy spell away from the music biz, our favourite Aussie export is set to make a sizzling comeback next month with the release of a hot new single and a critic-wowing album to boot - but one place she always shines without fail is in front of the camera. When it comes to beauty, be it natural and understated or full-on glamorous, Miss Minogue never has an off-day. A trendsetter, a living legend, a cover girl and an icon... read on to find out just some of the reasons we\'ve crowned Kylie this month\'s handbag.com Beauty Icon

Two decades of stardom

Kylie Minogue,celebrity style Kylie Minogue pop star Whether you\'re in your thirties, twenties or teens, Kylie will have been a constant in your life. With a oh-so successful career spanning over two decades and including TV, film, music, fashion and, now, fragrance, it seems everything La Minogue touches turns to gold. What\'s more, she STILL doesn\'t look a day over 20!

Kylie’s radiant elfin face has graced the cover of countless magazines worldwide, including \'Cosmopolitan\', \'Glamour\', \'Harper\'s Bazaar\' and \'Vogue\', for whom she was guest editor on the Australian edition in 2006. She also appeared on the cover of \'Elle\' magazine around the world, which featured a stunning photoshoot taken by close friend Karl Lagerfeld (see left).

Despite this, Kylie still doesn’t feel completely comfortable in her celebrity skin and confessed she often cringes when doing sexy shoots. ‘There is often a point in any shoot where you are more or less guaranteed that I am going to have a moment and just go, "Eewww, I don’t want to be in this! Can’t someone else do it?"\' 

Forever young

But it’s not all down to genes. Kylie understands the importance of a good skincare regime and counts Neal’s Yard Remedies Rose and Almond Night Cream and Philosophy Microdelivery as skin-saving essentials...

Starting young. ‘As kids, we had this herbal book of how to make face masks and all that,’ she says. ‘I loved to go down to this one store where you could buy all the stuff you needed – orange flower water and so on. My mum, my sister and I, we all enjoyed making them’

Kylie - The Exhibition

Kylie Minogue,celebrity style Kylie - The Exhibition How many starlets are so adored they warrant their own exhibition at London’s beloved V&A Museum?

Kylie, The Exhibition takes you on a journey through the evolving image of the petite popstrel, featuring infamous performance costumes – like those legendary gold lamé hotpants – album covers and photographs, set against a backdrop of music and video – from 1988 onwards. It starts with the overalls she wore as Charlene in \'Neighbours\'!


Kylie, bottled

Now in remission, Kylie has proved what a strong, inspirational woman she is – and we love the way she turned a little hair loss into a lot of style gain.

When she first stepped out with her ‘jazz baby’ crop of cool curls and waves, she showcased what has become the most seminal short style of the decade

Her latest curly bob announces to the world that she’s back – ‘This look really makes a statement about the wearer,’ says Lisa Shepherd, leading lady in hair and stylist to the stars. ‘It says they are confident, self-assured and want to be noticed!’
