Nikki Reed is all about practicing beauty from the inside out. 

The Sleepy Hollow star recently sat down with food and fashion blog The New Potato to chat all things sustainable living and beauty routines, and she offered some advice for women who are looking for that extra boost of confidence. While the brunette beauty has found major success in pursuing multiple career paths (fashion, activism, screenwriting, songwriting and acting are just a few of her passions), Reed says she summons her self-esteem to the surface by looking within. 

"Fashion is a way to express yourself; it's almost like writing a story about who you are on your body every time you walk out the door," the 27-year-old dished. "I say do what feels good, and what feels like you. Look in the mirror and find one thing you love about yourself every day and focus on that."

Nikki is also careful to avoid using harsh chemicals on her skin, instead opting for "the most natural products I can get my hands on, even if it means a bottle of olive oil from the cabinet."

Looks like glowing skin is just a short trip away to the kitchen after all!
