Every celebrity doesn’t rely on expensive creams and beauty treatments, there are some who have found cheap or unusual beauty alternatives, some which can even be found for a few dollars in a grocery store. These strange secrets may be a little unusual, but these 5 stars swear by them in order to keep their hair shiny and complexion glowing. From egg whites to coconut oils, these beauty secrets sound like a delicious recipe but really make up a celebrity’s secret beauty regime!
Catherine Zeta-Jones
Catherine was advised to wash her hair in an alcoholic beverage, and she did despite the smell it left afterwards: “My grandmother told me that washing my hair in beer would make it shine, so I did. I used to stink for days.”
Thandie Newton
Thandie adds a common spice to her moisturiser which she says helps her skin: ”Olay does a great tinted moisturiser that I add a little turmeric to – making it more yellow depending on my skin tone and the season. That’s a great trick for all women who find that foundations are too ashy or too pink for their skins. And it’s anti-inflammatory. It’s my secret weapon.”
Miranda Kerr
Miranda adds an oil to her diet which she mixes in with food during the day to give her a glow: ‘I personally take four tablespoons of coconut oil per day, either on my salads, in my cooking or in my cups of green tea. I will not go a day without coconut oil.’
Eva Longoria
Eva eats a simple high protein food that she says keeps her away from cosmetic surgery which frightens her: ”I’m terrified of needles and knives. I saw those Discovery Channel shows with the operations. The sound of the chisel. Agh! No thank you. Egg white omelettes, some exercise and some eye cream is fine for now for me!”
Emma Stone
Emma uses a grocery store find as a cleanser which she believes works really well with her fussy skin: “I just use natural grapeseed oil from the grocery store on my face as moisturiser. After the shower, I pat it on, and then I’ll use it throughout the day and at night.”
