French beauty Lea Seydoux has shared some of her tips for staying gorgeous. Picking up some of the beauty trends and tips from her home country, Lea loves French brands for skincare and keeps a simple beauty routine that ensures she’s always glowing. The actress, who will appear in the new Bond film, loves to stay feeling fresh even while on the go, and also likes to keep her hair clean. Lea has commented on the makeup she believes suits her best, and how she takes care of her skin when she’s off-duty too. Here are her top beauty secrets!
- She Lets Her Skin Breathe
She always removes her makeup and gives her skin a break: “When acting I have to wear a lot of make-up, so when I’m not working I need to let my face breathe and be very comfortable. I always remove my make-up before going to bed. I also take a cold shower after a bath… it’s really stimulating.”
- She Loves Clean Hair
She hates greasy hair: “I wash my hair every two days, but if I don’t have time it gets greasy and I use Klorane dry shampoo. I really don’t like to have greasy hair…for me, it is disgusting. I prefer to have a big spot [pimple] than greasy hair. I wash my hair with Opalis—it’s amazing.”
- Her Favourite French Brands
Lea loves finding French skincare products: “French pharmacies are the best. La Roche-Posay is my favourite brand. I also love Puressentiel, its Sleep Easy Spray helps me breath and relax. If I were going on a desert island, I’d take lip balm. I love Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Intensive Lip Repair Balm.”
- Her Makeup Tips
She rarely wears eyeshadow because it makes her eyes look smaller: “I love make-up. I’m an expert on creating a flawless complexion but I never use eye shadows; my eyes are too small! I only put mascara on my eyelashes.”
- Her Travel Beauty Secret
She keeps skin refreshed even while on the go: “I’ll always take a water vaporiser spray with me which I use to stay cool and feel refreshed, and try not to put make-up on to let my skin breathe.”
