If you’re like us, you’ve probably wondered what everyday stuff famous people add to their carts — like hair spray or an electric toothbrush. We asked Olympian gymnast Jordan Chiles — who recently partnered with supplement brand Olly — about the noise-canceling headphones, blush, and snacks she can’t live without.
I always have my Fenty lip gloss on me to keep my lips on point. This is easy to throw in my bag, which is essential since I travel a lot. I don’t want anything too heavy or out-of-this-world big in my purse. I like that it goes with everything and has a little bit of glow. I can even wear it if I don’t have the rest of my face done. And it keeps my lips very moisturized even though it’s a gloss. It’s definitely handy to have.
I actually found out about this on TikTok after someone was talking about how amazing it was. I went and tried it out and was in awe immediately. I was like, Oh my gosh, the color is perfect. As a dark-skinned girl, it’s really hard to find the right shades for my makeup, and especially for blush. This nailed it. It’s glowy and radiant, and the pigment really comes through.
I listen to music 24/7 as an athlete. It’s a way to ease my mind and calm down. I do like my little AirPods for on the go, but the Max is much better for noise cancellation. I actually used to be a Beats headphones person, but then these came out. I was like, Oh, wait, these are even better. I think these are the best headphones. I love being able to be in silence when it’s needed. And they’re easier to carry around. I can throw them in my bag or hook them to my backpack without any issues.
I am an iPad kid. I grew up as an iPad kid and will forever be one. I bring this with me everywhere. With it, I can watch movies, play Sims, and create things on it. I really like taking notes on my iPad for new projects, mood boards, or if I’m trying to put together an event or something with friends. I recently used it to make a mood board for my birthday photo shoot, and it was so much easier to do than if I had used my phone.
When Shay Mitchell came out with this, I thought it was just a suitcase, yada, yada. I was wrong. I never in a million years thought I would be in love with a suitcase, but here I am. These are so stylish and the sturdiness is amazing. It comes with this strap on every luggage, so they can all connect to each other. They are just so handy. I actually have them with me on tour right now. I have a large, medium, and carry-on all in black. When I did a girls’ trip recently to Cabo, I actually got each of my friends a Beis suitcase as their gifts. They were all obsessed.
I love sour stuff. Any time I’m in the airport, I always have to have three things: water (always Essentia), chips, and something sour. A sour gummy worm on the go is my thing. I feel like because of their shape, they’re easier to eat. And I specifically like Trolli’s gummy worms. The pack comes with a bunch of different flavors, and I love every single one of them.
I actually used to only like Pizza Hut for their breadsticks. One day, I ordered Domino’s and was hooked on their twists and pepperoni pizza. Ever since then, I’ve just been the biggest Domino’s fan. They just do it right. It’s a great day snack, dinner, late-night snack, whatever you want it to be. My favorite is having it as a movie snack, since I have an in-house theater. It’s just an easy thing to order and have sort of my own concession stand.
I’ve been juggling a bunch of things in my routine lately between being a businesswoman, an athlete, and getting back into school. Not every day is the same, so for more stressful days, I like having a pack of these with me. I can take one and feel relaxed and at ease pretty quickly. The rest of the day, I’m not overwhelmed with whatever I have to do and it gets my brain in the right headspace.
