Salma Hayek doesn’t prefer to wash her face in the morning
Salma Hayek read some of the most asked questions about her during an interview and she had some great answers for her fans. As many people want to know what’s the beauty regime that the Eternals actress follows to look like a 30-year-old even in her 50s. Many people assumed her skincare would include bottles of serums and anti-aging creams. But for Hayek, one of the significant parts of her skincare is to not wash her face in the morning. The Puss in Boots actress revealed a key technique to maintaining youthful skin, which she learned from her grandma. While talking about her skin, Hayek said,
“My grandmother taught me never to wash my face in the morning. It’s not disgusting, guys. What happens at night is that your skin produces all the oils that your skin needs to look youthful. It regenerates.’ Wash your skin really well at night but don’t wash the hard work of your skin in the morning.”
In the same interview, Hayek made a joke about being 41 years old in response to a fan’s question about her skincare. She quickly said that he was kidding.
Salma Hayek reveals an important ingredient she uses for her skin
Hayek enjoys applying serums and has a skincare routine of her own. Tepezcohuite is an ingredient she never skips using. This ingredient is applied to burn patients in Mexico, according to the Desperado actress. When discussing a vital ingredient of her skincare, the 56-year-old actress said,
“I use an ingredient called Tepezcohuite that’s used in Mexico for burn victims because it completely regenerates the skin, and there’s no one in the States who is using this ingredient except for us. Some of the ingredients, when I took them to the American labs, they were like ‘Oh my god! How come nobody is using this?’ This is why I have no Botox, no peels, no fillings.”
