She's a two-time Olympian, Miami Swim Week model, bestselling author — and now, Jordan Chiles is adding beauty ambassador to her already impressive list of accomplishments.
The 24-year-old gymnast is the new face of Hero Cosmetics, the viral skincare brand best known for its Mighty Patch hydrocolloid stickers. Chiles, who was part of the gold-medal winning women's gymnastics team at the 2024 Summer Olympics, has been open about her skin journey, including hyperpigmentation, texture, and breakouts.
Chiles is buzzing with energy when we sit down over Zoom to chat about the new partnership. 'People always ask me, 'What do you do for your skincare?' So I was really happy Hero wanted me to be one of their ambassadors,' she exclusively tells Refinery29. 'Whether it's dark spots or a pimple that's coming up and I want it gone, I've always loved Mighty Patch.'
In addition to her out-of-this-world strength, artistry, and athleticism, Chiles has also authentically shown up as herself via her competition glam; strong brows, fluttery lashes, glowy skin, and medal-worthy nail art all figured heavily in her most epic Olympic moments. As she tells me, beauty has always been something she's passionate about. 'My older sister, who is my hair and makeup artist, definitely gave me a perspective of understanding that glam is something to enjoy, have fun with, and be creative,' she says.
Chiles swears by a less-is-more approach to keeping her sensitive skin looking and feeling its best. 'A majority of the time, I only use a good cleanser, an exfoliator, and then a nice, silky moisturizer,' she says. 'I keep it very simple, but make sure everything is hydrated and my skin looks good and glowy.'
When it comes to favorite products, Chiles lights up talking about being 'down bad' (same, girl) for Hero. 'I have Mighty Patches in every bag, my car, my room, and probably in five different bathrooms,' she says. Her favorites? 'Literally all of them, but since I go to practice a lot, [I love] the invisible ones and the dark spot ones with the prickly points.'
We also bonded over a shared underrated Hero fave: the Pore Purity Cleansing Clay Mask, made with glacial sea clay and sea kelp bio-ferment to decongest skin. 'It makes my face so soft — I love it,' Chiles says. 'I've been recently using it two to three times a week to get my pores in the right way and all that stuff.'
For Chiles, this partnership — which includes brand campaigns, social content, and live events — is anything but skin deep. 'I have [acne] scars here and there, but now I'm finally at a point where I'm positive with myself and my skin,' she says. 'Literally, it took me 22 years to finally be like, look, Jordan, you're a gorgeous girl. You have beautiful skin. Embrace that.'

PWHL Seattle taps Steve O'Rourke as the expansion team's first coach
Associated Press Steve O'Rourke was named coach of the PWHL Seattle expansion team on Friday. The move brings in a newcomer to women's hockey, but someone who is very familiar to the Pacific Northwest having played at Washington State. 'This is something I've thought about since the league was first announced,' O'Rourke said in a statement. 'To now be given the opportunity to work with the best players in the world and be part of a professional league that is thriving both on and off the ice is truly amazing. Being from the West and having played hockey in Washington State, I've seen first-hand how much the game has grown in this region. The passion and support for hockey here is real, and I'm proud to now be part of it in a new way." While the roster is still being constructed, O'Rourke will have the benefit of coaching a team featuring four-time Olympian Hilary Knight, who became the first player Seattle signed during the PWHL's expansion process two weeks ago. 'We're proud to welcome Steve as the first head coach in PWHL Seattle's history,' PWHL Seattle general manager Meghan Turner said in a statement. 'He brings a great hockey mind, a clear vision for the game, and a strong commitment to developing both our team and our players as individuals. We're confident in his leadership and excited to start this next chapter with him behind the bench.' The 50-year-old O'Rourke comes in with 15 years of coaching experience, most recently having worked in the junior ranks with the Ontario Hockey League's Oshawa Generals. He was an assistant with the Generals for two years before being elevated to head coach for the 2024-25 season. Seattle is already deep at forward, with Turner already envisioning her top two lines. Knight, who finished tied for the PWHL lead with 29 points last season, is also joined by two-time U.S. Olympian Alex Carpenter and Canada's Danielle Serdachny, who was selected by Ottawa as the No. 2 pick in last year's draft. Seattle will participate in its first PWHL Draft on June 24, when it will make six picks, including the eighth overall selection. ___ AP women's hockey: recommended in this topic
