Olivia Culpo is stepping into a new chapter, and with that comes changes in both her beauty and fashion routines. Pregnancy has completely shifted her approach, leading her to prioritize gentle, pregnancy-safe skincare and comfortable maternity fashion that works for her evolving needs.
When it comes to skincare, it’s about finding products that work for her pregnancy skin changes. “By the way, everything I’m using now costs 1/20th of the price of what I used to spend,” she tells E! in an exclusive interview. Her current routine proves that effective pregnancy skincare doesn’t have to come with a high price tag.
On the fashion front, Olivia is all about convenience and comfort, especially when it comes to vacation wardrobe essentials. “I love a matching set because it just makes packing and getting dressed so much easier,” she says.
In her new campaign with Cupshe, the Cupshe x Olivia Culpo’s Vacation Edit, she’s joined by her sisters, Aurora and Sophia Culpo, to showcase their favorite vacation-ready pieces.
From budget-friendly skincare to must-have fashion, Olivia is embracing this new phase with confidence, comfort, and style.
E!: Have you made any adjustments to your beauty routine during pregnancy?
OC: Definitely. My skin completely changed. I was having really bad dermatitis and rashes from my normal skincare routine. So, I had to change everything, which was a little bit of a learning curve.
I’m happy to take a little bit of the guesswork out for anybody else out there who has bad, sensitive skin during pregnancy. Do you want the favorites?
Vanicream Gentle Facial Cleanser

E!: What do you want women to feel when they wear something from the Cupshe x Olivia Culpo’s Vacation Edit?
OC: Confident. I want women to feel confident, and I want to take away the stress of packing. Hopefully, this edit will help people narrow down the best of the best.
E!: What’s your go-to look from the Cupshe x Olivia Culpo’s Vacation Edit?
OC: I always like a matching set. There is a maroon two-piece bathing suit that I really like.

“With staple colors like black and white, you can never go wrong.”
E!: Tell me about your style changes throughout the pregnancy so far.
OC: Figuring out how to balance all the new curves has been really fun. It’s trial and error, figuring out what I feel the most comfortable in.
If I’m wearing a looser dress, I just need to make sure there’s some balance, whether that’s showing arms or highlighting the bump in some way. Pregnancy dressing is really all about highlighting the bump.

Cupshe x Olivia Culpo’s Vacation Edit Venus Aura Cover-Up Maxi Dress
“I love the white dresses from the Cupshe edit.”
Bumpsuit The Kate Maternity Unitard
“Personally, I’ve found that any sort of Bumpsuit or jumpsuit to be the most flattering—anything tight around the waist.”
E!: You made some changes to your skincare routine. Which products have you kept that are both effective and gentle enough to use during pregnancy?
OC: There are some items that I still use. I use my Vitamin C from iS Clinical in the mornings. Then, I use the Active Serum from iS Clinical. I still use the Tula sunscreen.
Tula Protect + Glow Daily Sunscreen
“I love the glowy look. It’s my favorite.”

Experience smoother, more even skin with this powerful serum that targets fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and acne.
E!: How was shooting the Cupshe campaign with your sisters?
OC: Between all of us, we had so many different things that we loved, and some overlap too. My sisters were really nice and they let me select the bathing suits that I felt comfortable shooting in. They let me try them first because obviously I have some body changes with pregnancy. So, it was pretty easy.
They were really nice. There will be a time when someone else is pregnant in the future, and she can get first pick. We’ll extend the same courtesy.

E!: What suit do you recommend for a viral moment?
OC: I feel like it would be something that Sophie wore. The blue gingham one that Sophie wore. Or the red sarong with the matching bikini.
