If someone were to ask who my favorite beauty influencer was, I'd likely say Zendaya. The actress has held contracts with major beauty brands, has never been shy when it comes to trying bold beauty looks, and has held the unofficial title of selfie queen since she started posting pictures of her memorable hair and makeup beats and glowing skin moments on her Instagram.

The actress has also been open about her favorite beauty products, expressing her love for certain ones through interviews and posts on her various different social media accounts, which is what inspired my experiment. I test-drove some of the beauty products she told POPSUGAR she loved. Read on for my favorites.

Cetaphil Eczema Calming Moisturizer

In an interview with POPSUGAR, Zendaya expressed her love for the Cetaphil Eczema Calming Moisturizer ($15), saying that it did exactly what its name said it would. "When my eczema flares up, I use this and it calms it down," she said.

As someone who has eczema on the back of my arms and has used the brand to quell irritation on the sensitive skin across my body, I nearly sprinted to the nearest drugstore to get my hands on this moisturizer. I didn't have a flare-up when I tried the lotion, but decided to test it out on my driest patches. The fragrance-free, milky lotion instantly absorbed into my skin. It doesn't have a fragrance — just the way I like it — and leaves my entire body feeling soft and smooth.

Kiehl's Creme de Corps

One of Zendaya's go-to moisturizers is the Kiehl's Creme de Corps ($30), and it is also a dermatologist-favorite for creating the appearance of glowing skin. "Dry skin equals dull skin," Marnie Nussbaum M.D. previously told POPSUGAR. "It is a great silky, nongreasy lotion that absorbs easily into the skin. It contains a blend of hydrating ingredients like cocoa butter and sesame oil to soften skin, while the plant-derived squalane helps to restore the skin's natural moisture balance."

On a day that my skin felt especially dry (it was a morning after I'd laid out in the sun by the pool for hours), I smeared this rich cream on. My skin drank it up. It instantly erased all ashiness and restored my glow, leaving it with a nonsticky, hint of shine.

Pacifica Underarm Deodorant Wipes

Zendaya said that the Pacifica Underarm Deodorant Wipes ($8) were "so convenient and easy to travel with," and she was right. They fit snug in your carry-on, and even your everyday purse, but what has me hooked on these wipes is the scent. The sugary coconut fragrance smells just like a sweet piña colada, instantly transporting me to the tropical vacation I've been dreaming of taking. Now that's travel friendly.

Mario Badescu Facial Spray

"The [Mario Badescu Facial Spray ($7)] gives you that glow and it smells soooo good!" Zendaya told POPSUGAR. I pressed down on bottle's nozzle, which diffused its peach-pink liquid into a fine mist. (No surprise streams here!) It instantly woke me up and restored my natural radiance.
