For Luann de Lesseps, life is still a cabaret.
Luann de Lesseps' on-the-road beauty routine includes Chanel deodorant and bronzing body makeup.
The “RHONY” OG’s star has continued to rise following her time on Bravo, whether she’s performing for thousands at festivals or in the company of fellow celebrities at her “Marry F Kill” cabaret tour.
But through it all, the 59-year-old entertainer — who recently partnered with Olivier Midy — is staying fresh thanks to on-the-road must-haves like Chanel No. 5 Deodorant ($65), which she spritzes on in place of perfume.

“You can spray it in your hair [and] over your body. I love Chanel No. 5, so that’s one thing I can’t live without,” she tells Page Six Style of the product, which features the same iconic fragrance for a fraction of the price of No. 5 perfume.
CHANEL $65.00
It’s not the only item she’s keeping in tow on tour; de Lesseps also counts Vita Liberata Body Blur ($39) as a pre-performance essential, telling us it “gives you a tan, but [also] evens out your skin.”

The Countess also counts on an “easy” skincare routine courtesy of Olivier Midy’s Le Système Midy ($420), a three-step regimen that includes an oil-to-milk face wash, anti-aging essence and face oil.

“I love the tightening aspect of it, especially for stage and for life in general. We’re fighting gravity over here!” she says.
And while money can’t buy you class, it can buy you a bottle of “amazing” Philip B. Lightweight Deep Conditioner ($20+) — the Bravo OG’s favorite stuff for “soft and silky” hair.

After all, while the star might be known for her glamorous onstage style, she likes to keep her primping process streamlined to only the essentials.

The star’s skincare go-tos include Olivier Midy’s three-step system.
“I love performing … what I hate is getting ready,” she tells us, joking, “I’m like a dog that’s in the bath; just let me out of here get me on the stage already.”
The Bravoleb performed for a huge crowd at the Mighty Hoopla Festival in London.
She brings the same philosophy to first dates, ditching the Jovani sparkles and full-faced glam from her romance-inspired tour for “enticing” lipstick — Maybelline makes some of her favorites — and a classic LBD.
“I like to look less made-up for guys,” says the star, whose top dating advice boils down to making the first move.
“I think sometimes women are afraid to take chances and be forward,” she says. “What’s wrong with the girl making the move? I feel like women should be less timid in that area … Get what you want.”
