Her daily routine is quite simple.
At 62, actress Demi Moore has the youthful skin that women of all ages dream of. With her less-is-more approach to beauty, Demi has a certain “age-reversed” quality and looks better today than ever before. Her shapely features, plump skin and perfectly even complexion have everyone asking for her skincare secrets to keep her looking her best. We interviewed three experts – even Demi’s esthetician Terri Lawton – to get all the details on Demi Moore’s exact skincare regimen and everything she does.
Her Daily Skin-Care Routine
While we don’t know what cosmetic procedures Demi has or hasn’t undergone, we do know that a solid skincare routine is an essential part of the equation for maintaining her youthful glow. Instead of following a ten-step routine, Demi revealed to Harper’s Bazaar that she sticks to a pared-down approach that suits her sensitive skin. According to Dr. Lal, sensitive skin, like Demi’s, is often reactive, dry and easily irritated due to a dysfunctional skin barrier and hormonal changes as we age. “With sensitive skin, it’s important to stick to a simple skincare routine because adding more variables can lead to further irritation or even allergic contact dermatitis. Using fragrance-free products is also recommended. “They are naturally drying to the skin and can sting or burn sensitive skin.
Even though less is more, your skin won’t lack luminosity. In an interview with Women’s Health, the actress revealed that she always cleanses her skin no matter what, and that she likes to wash her face with Retrouvé Luminous Cleansing Elixir and Cosmedix Benefit Clean when she needs a thorough cleanse.
Demi doesn’t spend a day without moisturizing her skin, something she learned from her mother. “I recommend to all my patients to moisturize their skin morning and night. For someone like Demi, regular moisturizing is important to keep her skin healthy and glowing,” says Dr. Amin. One of Demi’s favorite moisturizing serums, according to Yahoo Life, is BioEffect EGF Serum, which Dr. Amin says is formulated with epidermal growth factors. This signaling protein can support the skin’s natural collagen production, improve elasticity and reduce fine lines.
Other skincare products she uses, according to an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, include Biologique Recherche’s Dermopurifiante Purifying and Unifying Cream, La Grande Crème and Retrouvé Intensive Replenishing Facial Moisturizer, which she applies to the face first and then applies the additional product to the neck, chest and even breasts. “I like that La Grande Crème contains a proprietary ingredient that helps turn off the genes involved in skin aging, which helps the skin maintain its youthful appearance,” adds Dr. Lal. Her other anti-ageing must-haves are NIOD Copper Amino Isolate Serum 3 1:1, a serum that boosts collagen production, and peptide serums that strengthen the skin barrier and combat age-related dullness.
To reap the benefits of aromatherapy, Demi likes to spritz on ilapothecary Formula No. 27: Beat the Blues Spray, which, she said in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, “changes the whole mood of everything.”
Her Favorite Facial
Demi is a long-time client of beautician and energy healer Terri Lawton. “I’ve been working with Demi for more than 20 years,” says Lawton, who always looks at the totality of a person in her facial treatments. “Working with the concept and energies of the whole brings out the fullness and depth of who we are. With Demi, I see her true beauty and its depth,” says Lawton. “But Demi doesn’t dwell on the concept. She lives it 24/7 and is authentic in her body, mind and spirit.”
Every facial Lawton performs on Demi is unique. Lawton says she works with energy systems that need to be awakened and harmonized. “This makes her skin look beautiful and vibrant and gives her the dimension we are looking for. In my facials, I work with products that best match the skin’s inner and spiritual energy.”
Her Favorite Facial Tools
Facial sculpting devices can make a big difference, and one that Demi relies on (after her skincare regimen) to achieve her contoured and defined jawline, jowls and neck is the Georgia Louise Lift + Sculpt Butterfly Stone, a safe gua sha for all skin types. Dr. Amin says Demi’s preference for Gua Sha reflects her commitment to natural skin care. “Gua Sha promotes blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, and frequent use can reduce puffiness and muscle tension, improve facial contours and contribute to a more defined, youthful appearance,” says Dr. Amin. “This practice complements Demi Moore’s precise skincare routine by providing a non-invasive way to enhance her natural beauty.”
Aside from the fancy sculpting tools, Demi has also raved about the simple MakeUp Eraser makeup remover wipe she uses to cleanse her skin and remove makeup at the end of the day. In an interview, she said the cloth saved her skin. Dr. Lal says it’s a great alternative to traditional makeup remover wipes: “It’s a great eco-friendly wipe that allows you to remove makeup and exfoliate your skin at the same time. Exfoliated skin absorbs makeup better and looks less dull.”
