Sure, it's their job to look good and they have plenty
of help achieving their beauty goals but that doesn't mean
the rest of us can't look as good as our favorite
celebrities.
One tip celebrities learn early on is that beauty is
achieved from the inside out and prevention is key. Going
under the knife these days draws as much scrutiny as a bad
beach photo showing dimpled thighs and belly fat.
Celebrities are simply supposed to look fabulous but
without showing the obvious signs of how they achieved the
results. But we all know that nothing happens by magic.
We've asked celebrity makeup artists, skincare
specialists, nutritionists, doctors and other professionals
that work with today's hottest celebrities to share some of
the secrets to treating common skin complaints and
achieving younger looking, radiant skin at any age.
Protect Skin from the Environment
Stars like Kate Hudson know that protecting their skin
from harsh UV rays and environmental irritants helps to
preserve the skin's precious collagen reserves. Kate is a
fan of Juice Beauty Green Apple Antioxidant Serum.
Actress Cate Blanchett turns to N.V. Perricone Olive Oil
Polyphenols Nutrient Face Fortifier (Whew! What a name!) to
keep her skin protected with antioxidant packed
polyphenols, which also reduce the appearance of fine lines
and wrinkles.
Super Hydration
It's all about the dewy complexion in Hollywood. So if
you're skin is as dry as sandpaper, you'd better get to
hydrating (dry skin is more prone to fine lines, making you
look older). Debra Messing always seems to pull off the
quenched look. Try a dollop of Kate Somerville Quench
Hydrating Serum to lock in moisture (plus the Vitamin A
fights the signs of aging).
Ivanka Trump gets her Springtime glow from SkinCeuticals
Hydrating B5 Masque. Sure, she's already young but infusing
her skin with youth-boosting hyaluronic acid and vitamin B5
can keep her looking as young as she feels.
Model-turned-actress Molly Sims moisturizes with Dr. Brandt
contour effect moisturizing cream, which plumps up the skin
by drenching it with moisture-and moisture is our
friend.
Dark Circles
Katherine Heigl relies on Hylexin to stop undereye
circles and puffiness in their tracks. The ingredients in
Hylexin reinforce capillaries that deposit blood in the
undereye area creating those persistent dark circles. So
say goodbye to raccoon eyes and hello sexy!
Ashunta Sheriff, exclusive makeup artist to Alicia Keys,
offers this advice for making tired eyes look brighter and
more rested, "Concealer will definitely take away the
appearance of dark circles. Also, even though this skincare
line is targeted for men, I've used Morning After Rescue
Remedy Gel by Nickel. With caffeine, cucumber and other
vital ingredients for under eye skin, it perks eyes up
quickly and makes them look refreshed."
Adult Acne
Yes, even supermodels get pimples. Earlier this year
supermodel Gisele Bundchen was asked what beauty tricks
she's picked up over the years and responded by saying, "I
had a really horrible pimple on my nose, and a makeup
artist gave me Nelsons Acne Gel. I kept putting it on, and
my pimple went away. I was like, this is great. It doesn't
burn your skin."
Statistics suggest that roughly 85% of the American
population have a problem with acne. The Nelsons
homeopathic acne gel actually works and contains no
artificial colors, artificial fragrances, or animal
products and it is not tested on animals. It's made from
natural ingredients like extracts of organically grown
hypericum perforatum, calendula, and arnica.
Now that you are armed with all of this beauty advice,
your favorite celebrity will have some new competition!
