Sunscreen is the most important anti-aging product in your skincare regimen, and Blake Lively knows it! To keep her skin protected from the sun’s harmful rays, Blake knows she doesn’t need to splurge on a $300 SPF and instead uses a derm fave, the CeraVe Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 Face Lotion.

The sunscreen is formulated with zinc and titanium oxide to provide UVA and UVB protection, which is complemented with three essential ceramides to hydrate and strengthen the skin. It’s also oil, fragrance, and paraben-free so it’s suitable for all skin types… Blake knows what’s up!

Beyoncé doesn’t appear to be aging at the same rate as us the rest of us, so whenever she spills the deets of her beauty routine, we add the aforementioned product to our cart faster than you can say flawless…

Beyoncé told Elle that she uses the Aquaphor Healing Ointment, $7, in her nighttime routine, explaining “I go to bed looking totally greasy. It’s not all glamour all the time.” The “greasy” residue is, in fact, a protective barrier that allows the flow of excess oxygen and fluid, creating an ideal healing environment. It’s a miracle-worker for dry, or chapped skin – we carry one with us, at all times!

Beyoncé isn’t the only A-lister to use the ointment, Meghan Markle and Selena Gomez stash it in their beauty bags and have their own set of hacks for this drugstore formula. For more details, read our full review.

In an interview with Vogue UK, Margot revealed, “One brand I’m obsessed with right now is 111SKIN, which my make-up artist Patti Dubroff got me hooked on. They have these sheet masks, they’re made out of a jelly sort of stuff and the serum they’re soaked in is so good. So when we’re getting ready for an event she’ll put one of those on while she’s doing my hair.”

Priyanka Chopra, who is also a client of legendary MUA Patti Dubroff, loves to use the Rose Gold Brightening Facial Treatment, $25 while she’s in the glam chair. Priyanka insists, “It’s the first thing that goes on my face before any make-up, and it makes anything I put on after look flawless.”

It’s rare that we get a glimpse into the coveted-life of Meghan Markle, so when we heard about her go-to skincare product, we were all ears. In an early interview, Meghan told Allure “I really love the TATCHA Rice Enzyme Powder,” explaining “It just sort of foams on your face and gives you a really subtle exfoliation.”

The Rice Polish is, in fact, a beauty-lover and celebrity staple – Kim Kardashian also relies on the formula to create a smooth, makeup-ready canvas – thanks to the gentle yet powerful ingredient list. The water-activated exfoliant is infused with Japanese rice enzymes that gently buff away dull, dead skin while promoting healthy skin turnover to refine skin texture. It also contains a trio of anti-aging superfoods to help boost radiance, leaving you with a youthful glow.

According to Selena, “If you get dark circles, this is the sh*t!” She told Into The Gloss, “I’ll put it on… It feels all good and cold, go have a coffee and that’s the bomb.” We totally agree. The three-in-one treatment instantly reduces morning puffiness: the cold-to-touch applicator helps reduce swelling while the formula, which features caffeine and licorice root extracts, brightens and hydrates the undereye. To maximize the cooling effect, store your eye cream in the fridge: it’s the best wake up call for your skin!

Especially, in the winter, my skin gets really dry so I do whatever I can to moisturize.”
