Star Skincare Secrets

skincare,celebrity style,make-up skincare beauty brush Smooth, plump and enviously flawless – A-list skin calls for nothing short of complexion perfection. But our favourite starlets are not all born with the perfect canvas – and even if they were, they have a few tricks up their couture sleeve to help keep it that way…

Holding back the years

Scarlett Johansson,skincare Scarlett Johnasson You\'re never too young to begin an anti-ageing regime. Despite just turning 21, modern day Monroe Scarlett Johansson says she\'s learnt more of the importance of anti-ageing skincare since becoming a star, and now ritualistically slathers herself in skin-saving formulas morning and night to keep her complexion smooth, supple and plumped to perfection

Type Casting

Heidi Klum,skincare,celebrity style Anna Friel skincare Identify your best beauty trait or your problem area and concentrate your efforts on that. Brit beauty Anna Friel knows her youthful, glowing complexion is her best beauty trait, and so swears by Dr Sebagh Serum Repair (£67, www.spacenk.com or 020 8740 2085) to brighten and plump that sparkling skin, whereas supermodel Heidi Klum was no stranger to the odd breakout before she discovered the infamous Mario Badescu Drying Lotion (£15, www.HQhair.com ), saying thanks to this formula her skin has never looked better

SP Factor

Nicole Kidman,after-sun,skincare Nicole Kidman We all know the importance of sun protection – and not just for cosmetic reasons. But it\'s a well-known fact that SPF is essential if you don\'t want to wind up looking like an old handbag in later life. Possibly the best walking advertisement for this is A-list Aussie Nicole Kidman. Famously afraid of the dangers of sun exposure, Nic keeps her delicately fair skin shielded in sun cream, come summer or winter, and its safe to assume this is why that perfect porcelain complexion has never looked better

Only Skin-Deep?

dry skin,diets,nicollette sheridan Nicollette Sheridan skincare They say beauty is only skin deep, but what we put inside our bodies reflects on the outside too. Our favourite Desperate Housewife Nicollette Sheridan often sites her life-long vegetarian diet as the secret to looking youthful. What\'s more, Nicollette – like many other women – suffers from dry and sensitive skin, and so indulgences her complexion with monthly, customised performance facials to keep it in check and glowing with health

Easy living

Top-to-toe toning

Madonna,skincare Madonna Not just sporting an impressively toned bod for a woman of any age, yet alone her own 48 years, úber-bendy Queen of pop Madonna knows the importance of tone when it comes to skin too, and is said to mist her face morning, noon and night with Dr Hauschka Facial Toner (£18, 01386 792 622)

Everything in moderation

Cameron Diaz,blemishes,oily skin Cameron Diaz Reformed party girl Cameron Diaz is no stranger to flare ups. An \'oily skin\' type, her smoking and drinking binges made her prone to spotty breakouts which were always caught on camera. Now in her thirties, Cam\'s calmed down a bit, and it\'s plain to see, her skin has too. Of course, she can also lay claim to having the ultimate anti-ageing tool with her at her disposal – the toyboy (snake-hipped boyfriend Justin Timberlake)

The Eyes Have It

eye cream,catherine zeta jones Catherine Zeta Jones We all know celebrities are constantly getting lifts and unwelcome bags removed to keep those peepers looking oh-so youthful, but what so many of them know that many of us mere mortal folk don\'t is the importance of eye cream. The skin around the eyes is thin, delicate and prone to early wrinkles. Brit beauty Catherine Zeta Jones swears by anti-ageing formulas and brightening creams, like her personal favourite Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Defining Eye Brightener (£27, available nationwide) to keep those infamous eyes a\'smiling

Indulge Yourself

skincare,Elemis Sienna Miller The stars are no stranger to regular pampering, and even though it\'s likely our budget doesn\'t match that of an A-lister, it\'s important to spoil yourself and your skin every now and then with a spa treatment. Sunny beauty Sienna Miller swears by the Elemis Visible Brilliance Facial (From £55, www.elemis.co.uk) for an anti-ageing, stress-busting, rejuvenating kick, whilst Hollywood heavyweight Reneé Zellweger trusts Bliss Spa (www.blisslondon.co.uk) to detox, massage and exfoliate her complexion to perfection.
