I highly doubt anyone would ever guess that Halle Berry is 47-years-old so when I found out she was talking skincare with InStyle magazine, of course I had to read. Mother to daughter Nahla and pregnant with baby number two, the gorgeous actress, newlywed and perfumista (she’s launching her sixth fragrance!) gave some insight on how she maintains her mega-youthful glow so I thought I’d share the highlights below. Be sure to pick up a copy of their November issue for yourself and read the full interview on page 267. xo
Halle Berry Shares Her Skincare Secrets
On skincare: “My routine is actually pretty simple. As a busy mother I don’t have a lot of time, so I usually just cleanse and moisturize twice a day and always wear sunscreen. But to be honest, I think a lot of how you look is about how you live. I’ve never smoked or indulged in alcohol or drugs. Those are things that show up on your face over the years.”
On Botox: “I think that’s something everyone needs to decide for herself. I’m not going to preach about whether it is good or bad. What I don’t agree with is young people doing it. When I heard a girl talk about getting Botox for her bat mitzvah, I thought my head was going to blow off!”
On beauty advice she’ll give her daughter: “Beauty is as beauty does. I learned that really early on. When she’s growing up, everyone will tell her how attractive she is, but my job as her mother is to counteract that by saying, “Yeah, but what do you do that makes you beautiful?” Looks have absolutely nothing to do with it.”
