Ana De Armas And Her Skin Care Ritual
Looking good is hard work and Cuban beauty Ana De Armas knows that more than anyone else. Apart from her stunning good looks, the Blonde actor is also known for her flawless skin which she painstakingly takes care of. Growing up in Cuba, De Armas spent a lot of time outdoors with her family on the beach which caused her skin to freckle up frequently. The star and her mother would come up with organic solutions to combat the harsh rays of the sun which led to the beginning of De Armas’ affinity for skin care. The actor’s initial obsession for lengthy treatments gave way to a pragmatic skin ritual.
“I’ve learned to enjoy the time [I spend applying my products] and slow down a little bit. It hadn’t been my priority. And I felt like I spent too much time in the bathroom! But now, I make sure that after I wake up, I wash my face. I put on all my serums and sunscreen in the morning. And then at night, if I put makeup on that day, I take the makeup off. I wash my face again.”
De Armas also added that she was very possessive of her beauty products and preferred to buy others their own creams rather than allowing them to use hers.

De Armas’ portrayal of the troubled and controversial star won her appreciation from audiences and critics and reaffirmed the fact that she is much more than her stunning outward appearance.
