"I get my daily dose by taking The Beauty Chef's Glow Advanced Inner Beauty Powder." Fill up on these 13 probiotic-rich foods.
Remember, hydrated skin is dewy and radiant. "I moisturize in the A.M. and P.M., but over the course of the day, my skin can dry out. To keep my complexion refreshed, I always keep a facial mist on hand," says Kelsey Price of Liberty Green. Her can't-live-without formula? Edible Beauty No.2 Citrus Rhapsody Toner Mist. "I spritz it whenever I feel like my skin needs a pick-me-up, or set my makeup!" This is what your skin-care routine should look like if you have dry skin.
Price swears by a weekly detoxifying mask to deep cleanse, decongest skin, minimize the appearance of pores, and get circulation going. "One of my favorites is The Little Alchemist Cacao & Banana Face Glow. It's rich in antioxidants, fruit enzymes, and clay to really boost, firm, and cleanse the skin. Plus, it only takes a few seconds mix it up (just add water) and apply. The mask does all the work. After ten minutes, simply rinse it off. Price admits that she'll wash it off in the shower if she's feeling super lazy. Laid back ladies will love these 10 easy beauty tricks.
