Serena Williams‘ daughter Olympia helps her with her morning beauty routine.
The 38-year-old tennis star enlists the help of her two-year-old daughter Olympia — whom she has with her husband Alexis Ohanian — when it comes to getting ready in the morning, as the tyke is already a pro at using a beauty blender.
In a video posted to Instagram, she told her fans: “Usually, I do my night routine. I never do my day routine or my morning routine, so I wanted to show you my morning routine and Olympia wants to show you too.”
Williams went on to explain she starts by cleansing her face and using eye masks to help her look “refreshed.”
She said: “It’s morning and I want to have a refreshed face. So I wake up and I do the Knesko Diamond Radiance and it goes under my eyes.”
In the video, Olympia then pulls out two different beauty blenders and holds them up to the camera, while she explains to her what they’re used for.
The tennis star said: “Yes, that’s for our makeup.”
She captioned the video gushing over the toddler’s knowledge of products like beauty blenders but said she is still “too young” to use eye masks.

She wrote: “@OlympiaOhanian is still too young for eye masks but she sure can work that beauty blender! (sic)”
Meanwhile, Williams recently referred to Jennifer Lopez as her style icon, as she hopes she looks like the singer and actress when she reaches 50.
She said: “I think right now, you can’t think of style and not think of Jennifer Lopez. She’s just a little bit ridiculous and beyond amazing. She’s always been stylish. I mean, I can’t wait to be her age because I want to look like that.”
Serena Williams dotes on her adorable daughter Olympia, 2, as she shares a cute selfie with the tot
She welcomed her adorable daughter Alexis Olympia in September 2017.
And Serena Williams proved that she was the spitting image of her little girl when she shared a close-up selfie with the tot on Thursday.
The tennis star, 38, appeared alongside her daughter in the cute selfie just days after she warmed fans’ hearts with a hilarious beauty video that featured Olympia messing around with her makeup sponges.
Serena allowed the snap to speak for itself as she appeared alongside her cute daughter, and opted not to caption the post.
The former Wimbledon recently shared another video displaying her beauty regime, but the demonstration was interrupted by Olympia, who proceeded to play around with her beauty blender.
In a clip posted to Instagram on Monday, Serena can be seen standing in front of her bathroom mirror wearing a personalised black Versace robe, while her daughter, whose father is Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian, is peeking up over the sink.
As Serena demonstrated the masks she uses under her eye, Olympia proceeded to grab two beauty blenders and explain they’re for her mother’s eyes.
The sporting superstar also recently reflected on the daily perils of being a working mother in a lengthy Instagram post alongside a snap with her sleeping daughter.
She wrote: ‘I am not sure who took this picture but working and being a mom is not easy. I am often exhausted, stressed, and then I go play a professional tennis match.
But the star still preserves, continuing: ‘We keep going. I am so proud and inspired by the women who do it day in and day out. I’m proud to be this baby’s mama @olympiaohanian. #nofilter #nomakeup #nohairbursh lol #justme (sic).’
Serena revealed that while it’s tough not always being there for her daughter, she thinks it is ‘good for her’ to be able to work still.
She added: ‘You know, it’s hard. Sometimes my heart literally aches when I’m not around her.
‘But, you know, it’s good for me, I guess, to keep working and just – to all moms out there that it’s not easy. It’s really kind of painful. Sometimes you just have to do what you have to do.’
