Celebrity Beauty
Although we hate to admit it, most of us look up to
celebrity beauty routines when it comes to skin care because their skin always looks flawless. For instance, InStyle’s
survey on skin concerns revealed that Latina women are worried about dry skin, which is why their beauty role models are Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, and Jennifer Aniston. On the other hand, Black women are concerned about dryness and uneven skin tones. As such, they look up to celebrities like Halle Berry and Angela Bassett, as they have radiant looking skin.
Similarly, you might look up to certain celebrities due to their flawless and glowing skin. The good news is that you can also get glowing skin by following their skincare secrets:
Vitamin C
Model Ashley Graham says that her goal is to have moisturized and glowing skin. She admits that she struggles with her combination skin type, which is why creating a skincare routine has been very much trial and error for her over the years. However, she discovered a big skincare secret once she paid a visit to her dermatologist, Dr. Shereene Idriss. Following her dermatologist’s recommendation, Graham has since been using a
vitamin C serum every morning. This skincare staple provides your skin with antioxidants and tretinoin, which can smooth wrinkles and brighten up your complexion. As such, using a vitamin C serum can make your skin look fresh and radiant.

Halle Berry deserves to be a beauty role model for Black women as she's done so well at maintaining her youthful, glowing skin! One might think that celebrities have an extensive—and expensive—skincare routine. However, Berry admits that she doesn’t use fancy new products or follow complex skincare routines. Instead, she swears by a
skin brightening routine that consists of four potent products. For many years, Berry has been following a simple regimen with a cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and eye cream to keep her skin radiant. And her gorgeous skin is proof that you only need to focus on using key products that can target your skin concerns.

Actress Priyanka Chopra has gorgeous skin, thanks to the beauty secrets and recipes that her family handed down to her! She stated that these beauty secrets have been tried and tested by several generations and they continue to work effectively. One of the beauty recipes she shared is using a
yogurt and oatmeal mask that solves skin dullness. You can make this face mask at home by mixing cooked oatmeal, yogurt, and honey. Chopra even adds about 1-2 teaspoons of turmeric to help brighten her skin. Then, simply apply the mixture onto your skin and leave it for half an hour so that it can work its magic.

Incorporate more greens into your meals[/caption]
Miss Universe 2012 Olivia Culpo admitted that she actually struggled with acne breakouts. However, she resolved her skin concern once her aesthetician recommended a more
holistic approach to skincare. To say goodbye to dull and acne-prone skin, Culpo changed her diet by incorporating more greens into her meals. She also cut back on her dairy intake, even if it meant sacrificing her favorite food: ice cream. This sacrifice paid off because Culpo noticed a major difference in her skin after switching to a healthier diet. Similarly, you can nourish your skin from the inside by consuming healthy and balanced meals.
