We all know that celebrities have access to the best of the best makeup artists, hair stylists, and doctors, but the products that they use on a daily basis are vital to their self-care regimen. If there's a product that a star has sworn by for years, I can't help being curious, especially when it's a pick from one of those seemingly ageless stars. You know who I'm talking about, right? I'm thinking about those celebs who look the same during a "ten-year challenge" on social media. And, in all honesty, a lot of them even seem to be aging in reverse (i.e. pretty much all of the famous Jennifers). If they're using a product that I can afford, I am down to try it.

If you're wondering about the skincare, makeup, tanning, and hair care products that keep your favorite stars looking youthful and amazing, you're not the only one. Keep on scrolling to see go-to products recommended by Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Garner, Gabrielle Union, Paris Hilton, Kelly Ripa, Hoda Kotb, Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Hudson, Kelly Rowland, Lisa Bonet, Kate Hudson, Jessica Alba, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Beckinsale, Halle Berry, Padma Lakshmi, and Gwen Stefani.

I only do my skin though, the ColorStay Foundation works so well I don't need to re-apply elsewhere. It feels better than it looks though, you do pretty much look the same!"

After just one wash and condition and using the minoxidil drops my beautiful curls were back! Along with my curls my confidence also came back, boy what a difference. I can even now let my hair air dry if I want and my curls will remain. I haven't been able to do this in forever! I feel 10+ years younger and pretty again.
