What do the Stars Use...

[KiSseS03]

...for acne and hyperpigmentation.

I read somewhere that Beyonce used to have a problem with this when she was 18, but now her skin is flawless. Oprah even said up close it looks like silk. Also, I noticed in older pics Rihanna used to have a few probs, but now just like Bey she's clean and clear :lol:. Do you think they take low doses of Accutane (I read that's what Jessica Simpson and Justin Timberlake used to clear up their mild acne)? They're under so much pressure to have a smooth, beautiful face, and they have access to the best, so does anyone know any star secrets?

I remember seeing a special when Tina Knowles was fussing at Beyonce because she didn't want her mom to do a facial. Beyonce kept saying that she didn't have time. Perhaps along with the best skin products, Tina probably helps care for her image from top to bottom and inside out.

Accutane is the only thing that I will not take. It could cause possible birth defects if you get preganat (sp). Even though I plan to remain childfree you never know and I don't think treating acne is worth the risk.

Other's choose to use it but I won't and didn't.

I was in Sephora in NYC and the salesperson told me that Beyonce uses the Z. Bigatti skincare products line. I've tried a few of their products but they are pretty pricey.

NOW WE KNOW! lol, Alot of us just oogle over her complexion! It is very flawless...

bump. God bless you all.

I think Gabby had naturally beautiful skin. Beyonce too. Plus they probably get facials and microdermabrasion and such. I'd love to be a fly on the wall, because these ladies have gorgeous skin.

[Supergirl]

I bet they get regular, professional facials which are wonderful for the skin.

I took a low dose (10mgs) of Accutane for a year...best thing I couldve ever done..wish I woulda done it sooner... Although I have some scarring on my face from acne back in the day my skin is no longer off the hook oily..even in the summer time or a humid climate. And I can use regular skin care products (including a night creme) now!

[Lovelylocs]

I agree that their skin looks nice b/c of facials and skin peels. The regular products are just for maintenance, but w/o the facials and trips to the spa they would have regular looking skin.

[KiSseS03]

This summer I've incorporated facials into my skin care regimen, my second one is this coming Friday... I'm hoping what you guys say is true!

I had no issue with this drug. My triglycerides and cholesterol levels did not budge. No depression issues either. Not to mention they gave me 80 dollars to take a survey while using the drug. I am pretty much the poster child for it. :lol:

I don't think the stars used Accutane. Good skin is hereditary. Plus they can afford skin peels, surgery, cryogenic freezing for flesh moles, Photoshop airbrushing... etc.

You have to really think about who the media puts out in the open. Modeling agents in addtion to A&R people look for clients with clear skin... so that's what you're going to see when you turn on TV-- that ONE percent of people with smooth, supple, perfect skin.

Actually there are quite a few stars who *quietly* use/used Accutane. Since they are photographed so much even mild skin problems are an issue. I know that Jessica Simpsona and Justin Timberlake both took low doses of the drug to clear up mild acne.

Oprah uses Restylane injections
the newest rave is hylauronic acid
others might use DMAE, drink lots of water, alpha loric acid and vit c serum
okay my spelling might be off a bit.

I agree with anky. I think Gabby has good skin period. I actually have her exact skin tone and everyone always always ask what I use and I say nothing. Even my mother wonders what I use. Others stars may have breakouts and may use "something" but I can tell Gabby has that good stuff. Thats why they are celebrities.

she has it posted on her site hallewood.com. She also talks about her hair a bit. She uses KeraCare. I had heard that ages ago.

Some of it may be outdated, but it seems pretty legit. Like she was involved in the site. The dream cream, I forget where I heard she uses that but I read somewhere she is a big fan of it.
