Celebrities are beautiful, it’s a fact. They have the best products and famous makeup artists to get them glammed up, but is the secret really in the lipstick?
Expensive beauty products are great, but most celebrities will tell you that it’s their skincare routine that really matters. The right skin care routine is about taking care of your skin, not just covering it up with quality products.
As the saying goes, beauty comes from the inside out. So, if you want to shine like your favorite stars, you need these top beauty tips.
1. Sleep and water
It may sound cliche, but Lea Michele swears it made a huge difference in her skin, and the best part — there’s no expensive products involved. No doubt she was right too. Research shows that sleep is an important factor in skin health because when you don’t get enough sleep, your body produces more of the stress hormone cortisol, which is linked to acne, breakouts, and other skin impurities.
2. Wash your face
You’ll hear this beauty tip from everyone, even if they’re not famous, but Mary J. Blogs especially promotes it. You must remove all dirt, makeup, and anything else from your face that day to allow your skin to heal and rejuvenate overnight. Acne may even be the least of your worries. Failure to remove makeup thoroughly may lead to eyelash root infection, accelerated aging, eye inflammation, and even affect your hairstyle.
3. Use green to make your skin glow
Olivia Culpo says beauty starts with what you eat. The gorgeous celebrity admits she has a huge sweet tooth, but she never really considered the impact they have on her skin until she spoke to her beautician. When she started adding vegetables and cutting out dairy, she noticed a significant improvement in her skin. That’s because dairy and other sugars can be difficult for the body to digest, while greens and other fruits and vegetables get into all the right places.
4. Moisturizer and bronzer
A good moisturizer is the foundation of a beautiful face, while the perfect shimmering bronzer will keep you looking vibrant. Eva Mendez says mixing the two can help you look prettier without going too heavy on makeup.
5. And the eyelids
Also, it’s important to moisturize your eyelids – otherwise people forget about it. Ellen Pompeo claims this is her go-to trick for making her eye makeup last longer, and when you go to apply your smoky eye, it blends naturally for a flawless look.
6. Masks are made in the refrigerator
Not only can you eat vegetables to get glowing skin, but you can also make the best face mask out of them. Priyanks Chopra says her family has dozens of beauty secrets passed down from generation to generation. One of her favorite methods is to mix equal parts yogurt and turmeric, apply it to your face, and then wash it off with warm water. This will give you unparalleled beautiful, radiant skin.
7. (Almost) Natural Lip Color
Halle Berry has a secret to making her lips look natural. Apply your favorite red lipstick and wipe it off. Apply clear lip gloss and voila! Natural, soft, pink lips.
8. Speak positively
Icon and legend Jennifer Lopez tells us she repeats positive mantras to herself. The first step to feeling beautiful is to think about beauty. You won’t believe how much a few positive thoughts can change your appearance and get you ready for the day ahead.
9. Avoid using too many products
The key is that we avoid talking about product here, and that’s exactly what Kerry Washington thinks. She tries not to wear foundation as often, opting instead for some concealer. The truth is, skin can’t breathe and doesn’t have lungs, so avoiding makeup keeps your pores clear of dirt and other stuff.
10. Protect skin from sun exposure
Jennifer Aniston is one of our favorite beauty icons, but even her perfect complexion doesn’t come from anywhere. Aniston admits that when she was younger, she didn’t always wear sunscreen, but now she uses SPF 15 whenever she goes out. Sunlight can cause other problems, but it is the number one cause of wrinkles. Wearing sunscreen will moisturize, protect from the sun, and slow down the process.
Now you know, getting beautiful, smooth skin like your favorite celebrities isn’t as hard as you think.
