(We seriously can’t wait.) Until that glorious day, we rounded up a few of her tried-and-true products. From vampy lipsticks to flawless foundations, here are six items she swears by.

Covergirl ‘lashblast Volume’ Waterproof Mascara
In an interview with Vogue, Williams revealed that mascara and eyeliner are the only makeup she likes to wear on the court. “Playing tennis is hard because you sweat and move so much,” says Williams, “and this mascara don’t!”
Neutrogena ‘clear Face’ Liquid Lotion Sunscreen
When you play an outdoor sport, sun protection is crucial. Luckily, Williams learned this at a young age. “I never leave home without it. I go with SPF 55—and I always reapply,” she explained to People. Although she didn't mention the exact brand, the best-selling formula in SPF 55 is this lightweight version from Neutrogena.

Mission Skincare ‘replenishing Hand & Body Lotion’
Back in 2015, Serena partnered with Mission Skincare to launch a line of beauty products with HSN.

In addition to staying super hydrated, she touts this as her key to soft, healthy skin.
