Actress Katie Holmes has opened up on her usual makeup routine. She admits that she tries to keep makeup as simple and minimal as possible, and she has learnt some handy tips from makeup artists that she often utilizes when applying her own. For day, Katie says she’ll often wear nothing more than just blush and she loves how just adding some colour to her cheeks makes such a big difference to how she looks:

“I don’t wear that much make-up but I use the tips make-up artists have taught me and I try to look my best. Mostly if I do nothing else I put some blush on. It wakes you up and makes you look well-rested and alive.”

Katie sees that skincare changes as we age, as teenagers do their best to avoid oily products, older generations opt for more and more moisture which often means adding oil to their beauty regime:

“As a teenager skincare is about putting no oil on your skin because you don’t want any blemishes and then in your thirties you’re putting as much oil as it can take to avoid wrinkles!”

She believes working out can help clear and keep skin youthful and she does her best to stay active. She also enjoys indulging in a facial from time to time:

“I do think that those factors add to your skin. I like doing yoga, I like running and cycling – just staying active. And I love a facial. I don’t have one particular place, I try different places all of the time. It’s just so nice having someone touch your skin.”
