Eva Mendes and Shailene Woodley apparently have certain things in common and one of them is knowing how to take care of their own skin.
A few months after Mendes has given birth (September 12) to avbaby daughter named Esmeralda Amanda with her hunky beau Ryan Gosling, 40-year-old Mendes sat down with Violet Grey and dished out about certain topics.
In the beauty sector of the Mendez market, she revealed that she makes her own beauty products, saying, "When it comes to skincare I love using things I can find in my kitchen cabinet!" Mendes donned a retro bob as well as jewel-toned makeup for the shoot. She revealed. "I use coconut oil as a moisturizer, and I combine yogurt and sea salt to exfoliate."
The Place Beyond the Pines star also shared one tip for all the new mothers like herself who are experiencing the down side of looking tired or stressed. She added, "If I'm going out and looking tired and puffy (which happens a lot these days), I dip my face into a bucket of ice water. I once worked with a makeup artist who worked briefly with Lucille Ball. She told me that's what the actresses did back then."
When Violet Grey founder Cassandra Huysentruyt Grey had asked Mendes if she has any homemade remedies for stretch marks, Mendes quickly replied, "Lady, send me the [luxe beauty cream] La Mer!"
Mendes also admitted that nights spent with her daughter have been "some of the wildest nights I've ever had".
Thanks to the tip, Eva! Now all of the women out there who wants to have flawless skin like yourself can just go to the kitchen and grab all the necessary ingredients to help freshen their skin. Coconut oil, sea salt and yogurt.. time to go to the grocery!
