BIOLOGICAL BOTOX AND DECLÉOR CREAMS, OR HOW MEGHAN MARKLE DOES TO BE ALWAYS RADIANT
If you are also wondering about her beauty secrets, here are a few answers
That Meghan Markle is more than what we see is something that everyone seems to agree with. Successful actress (in the television series Suits, which she mysteriously just left), she uses her projection of fame in various philanthropic projects, breaks the stereotype of the empty beauty made in California and is ultimately a woman ideas. For a while he let us read them on a blog, called The Tig, where he talked about organic food and healthy life, but also actively campaigning against bullying or recounting the extreme experience of living, in the same week, the reality of an NGO in Rwanda and the BAFTA awards red carpet. Oh, and everything indicates that Markle is about to get engaged to Prince Harry.
We said that the actress is much more than what we see, but what is striking at first glance is also evident: "radiant" is the word used by experts. Her skin, her smile, her hair, and her figure — all border on canon perfection. How does she get her to be so resplendent?
THE SKIN: THE SECRET OF ORGANIC BOTOX
This is one of those tricks that actresses, celebrities and even queens use to stay young without having to undergo surgery. And the last to test its benefits is apparently Meghan Markle. Before her, Kate Middleton, Michelle Obama (on the recommendation of the Duchess of Cambridge, as revealed by her official makeup artist) and even Queen Letizia herself, as indicated on the website of the brand that markets it in cream, Biotulin.
This cream is formulated with Spilanthol, a local anesthetic that is extracted from a plant, acmella oleracea. And unlike the original botox, its effect is cumulative: in the first 24 hours it smoothes wrinkles but they say on the brand that as it continues to be used the rejuvenation increases. They assure the brand that the results are comparable to surgical treatments performed with botulinum and the effect begins to be appreciated 60 minutes after applying the cream, for 24 hours.
The second most important compound in this organic botox is Imperata cylindrica, an herb that grows in the driest deserts of South America and provides moisture to the skin for more than four hours. Hyaluronic acid is the third great ingredient: "being included in the lotion helps slow down the passage of time and keeps the skin healthy and beautiful," they say.
However, Hollywood surgeon Benji Dhillon (of the Phi Clinic) recently claimed in an interview that it is misleading to think that the cream and the needle can achieve the same result. At least, it is not something that has been proven: “To my knowledge there are no published clinical studies comparing the effects of Biotulin and Botox. A quick search of medical studies does not yield any results on Biotulin, but 48,000 on Botox ”.
Injected or in cream, the use of botox has spread among famous women around the world. They all seek the same thing: a fresh, young, glowing face. "It seems frivolous to inject a toxin to improve our appearance, but everyone who tries it and sees the naturalness of the result, usually repeats," Dr. Mª Rosa García Maroto, from the De La Fuente Clinic in Madrid, told us in a recent conversation.
In general, the effects of injected botox last an average of six months. Although, as Dr. Antonia Alonso from the Javier de Benito Institute in Madrid explains, the effect is variable, and depends on the thickness of the skin, the power of the muscle, the amount of gestures that each person makes and the depth of the wrinkles.
CREAMS: THE OTHER CARE
Min Min Ma is Markle's official makeup artist in many of her public appearances, and her advice for perfect, natural makeup is going viral. “Meghan has wonderful skin so she applied very light makeup to make sure her freckles are still showing. She also used a little concealer under her eyes ”, she has declared in the British press. According to Min Min, before putting makeup on the actress, she often uses a mild oil-based serum (Decléor Aromessence Rose D ’Orient Soothing Oil Serum) to prep her skin. She also applies anti-aging patches to the dark circles area for 20 minutes to reduce dark circles and deflate bags.
THE MAKEUP
As revealed by the actress herself in an interview with the American magazine Allure that she does not spend more than five minutes a day putting on makeup. And that there is a single product that she always uses: the iconic YSL Touche Éclat highlighter, which helps camouflage dark circles. Apparently, her favorite makeup base is soft and reveals her natural freckles: she uses Chanel Vitalumière Aqua, very light and with a second-foot effect.
This idea of not masking the skin is one of the mantras of Lucia Pica, Chanel's Global Creative Makenup and Color Designer, the woman who is revolutionizing cosmetics as we know it, and creator of the "Chanel skin" that she loves so much. to Markle. “I say yes to beautiful skin: add product, but not too much. Your makeup should look like it's part of you, ”she revealed to us in an interview.
There is another classic that Markle uses on a daily basis, it is the Nars Blush Orgasm blush ("It gives me a very natural pink tone," she said once), and as a mascara, she wears Dior Iconic. She also uses a serum to increase her natural lashes: RevitaLash Advanced.
THE NOSE: RHINOPLASTY OR MATURITY?
It is often said that the best plastic surgeons are not only those who achieve a naturally perfect result, but also those who also keep the secret of confession forever. However, Hollywood has something for everyone, and the National Enquirer this year got the testimony of Dr. Stephen Grifka confirming a rhinoplasty for Markle. Comparing photographs of his adolescence and today, the doctor assures that it is a cosmetic operation of the nose, to slightly narrow the bridge and stylize the tip, sculpting the nasal cartilage. The medium points out that in 2011 Markle spent many months without stepping on a red carpet or attending a public event.
THE DIET: FUROR FOR ORGANIC
“Growing up in Southern California has a lot to do with my love of food and cooking. We had a lemon and a fig tree in the garden, I loved gardening and growing my own vegetables. Growing up in California has influenced me a lot - I just want fresh, fresh, fresh produce. I take a lot of acai bowls, green juices, salads, sushi, fish tacos… ”, revealed Markle herself in a cooking blog. Her five essential ingredients in the kitchen are Maldon salt, hot chili peppers in oil (from Terroni), almond milk, meyer lemons and olive oil. Her favorite restaurants: Estela or Bohemian in New York, AOC & Sushi Park in Los Angeles and The Harbord Room in Toronto.
THE TRAINING
Markle herself has said on occasion that she is an advanced runner and that she seeks workouts that not only favor her body but also serve as an escape route to channel energy. Running helps clear your mind. She also practices yoga at high temperatures (specifically, the discipline she follows is Moksha Yoga) and Pilates.
He assures that he does not need a personal trainer to stay motivated and that for six years he has been making videos of celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson at home (Gwyneth Paltrow and Alessandra Ambrosio are two of his clients, and you can see his channel of Youtube here.
