"  With her signature buzzcut, pink lacquered lips, and what can only be described as beyond bodycon wardrobe (remember this? and  this?), 27 year old Amber Rose&amp;#039;s look is nothing if not singular. As many ELLEians know firsthand from her comings and goings in our office (for her Kanye-styled October fashion story), when it comes to natural beauty and palpable sex appeal, there are few women who possess more of either than Ms. Rose.  I recently sat down with the Ford model to talk beauty, her style admiration for Guns N&amp;#039; Roses guitarist Slash, and find out, among other things, how she&amp;#039;s able to always keep that cut of hers so perfectly buzzed and blond. For someone who&amp;#039;s decked out in Jil Sander one day and Louis Vuitton the next, you&amp;#039;ll be pleasantly surprised to learn just how relatable and affordable Amber&amp;#039;s day to day regimen is. We may not all be born with a flawless Cape Verdian complexion, but as you&amp;#039;ll read, genetics aside, there isn&amp;#039;t anything about the Amber Rose look you can&amp;#039;t steal for a steal.   Your skin, Amber...please tell me you drink nothing but water and sleep 12 hours a day. I don&amp;#039;t at all! I&amp;#039;m always traveling, and it sounds crazy but I really only find time to sleep on planes\u2014   Come on. It&amp;#039;s true! And I drink a lot of Diet Coke, too. I&amp;#039;m really bad about the water thing.   You must be doing something, though. When I saw you at the Women in Hollywood Awards last month, your skin glowed like nothing else. What products do you use? Thank you so much! I&amp;#039;ve always been good about moisturizing. Every morning and every night, everyday. What I do, and this sounds kind of weird, but I buy these pint-size containers of raw African shea butter from street vendors, I microwave it, and after I shower, I rub it everywhere. Even on my scalp and face. Nothing works better. And it&amp;#039;s cheap!   What about your skincare regimen? What cleanser do you use? Just Dove soap. I&amp;#039;ve never really tried anything else. I&amp;#039;ve always felt that when you use too many products or try too many new things, you&amp;#039;re just piling a lot of unnatural, unnecessary stress on your face. I try to keep it simple.   When it comes to blemishes, do you have a favored spot treatment? I use Neosporin. Just a little dab at night and it&amp;#039;s usually gone by morning.   In all honesty, how often do you have to reach for the Neosporin? Not too often. I&amp;#039;m pretty blessed when it comes to clear skin. I owe that to being Cape Verdian. My whole family has great skin. My grandfather is 80 but doesn&amp;#039;t look a day over 50. And we all love the sun, too, so blessed is an understatement!   Naturally flawless, sun-resistant skin? Let me guess, you never have to hit the gym, either? Oh no, I definitely work out. I love to eat and I don&amp;#039;t believe in denying myself, so I have to work out. I&amp;#039;m not obsessed with it, I don&amp;#039;t have a trainer or do any of the fancy classes, but I usually put on my iPod and run on the treadmill for an hour a few days a week. I&amp;#039;d much rather be the girl who worked out more so she could eat more; I could never not eat.   As for makeup, you do a lot of different things, but are there certain standby products you don&amp;#039;t leave home without? My one regular splurge is YSL [Teint Resist] foundation. I love it, because it goes on so smooth and light, but still covers up everything I need it to cover up. I also love M.A.C Lip Glass in `Pink Lemonade&amp;#039;, but my favorite lipstick is from Mona Lisa [shade `Hot Pink #14&amp;#039;]. It&amp;#039;s only $1.99!   With such a unique look, I have to ask\u2014who are your style inspirations? First and foremost, my Mom. She always let me be me. I also admire [models] Omahyra Mota and Eve Salvail. And Slash from Guns N&amp;#039; Roses, too. He&amp;#039;s so mysterious...the hat, the hair, the works. I find his look super sexy. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
