Unlike most superstars, the 31-year-old expecting mother happens to be her own hairstylist and makeup artist while on the road. “I do my own hair and makeup when I’m touring, and that’s something I always loved,” says Underwood to InStyle. “It’s quiet on my bus, and being able to put on my makeup and do my hair is almost therapeutic. I know that sounds kind of weird, but it really is! I love makeup, and I like the time I get to spend doing it, so it’s nice to get that time for myself to play with new things.” And although the “American Idol” winner is famous for her signature smoky eye, Underwood tells the magazine she prefers to keep her beauty routine simpler at home.
