During actress Rebel Wilson’s ‘Year of Health’ in 2020, the 41-year-old picked up a load of wellness-focused habits, such as hikes and sprint-based workout sessions.

All of those health-boosting changes are showing up on her skin, too. ‘Now I feel that thing people talk about—if you’re healthy on the inside, you glow on the outside,’ Wilson has said. ‘I don’t want to sound superficial, and looks aren’t everything, but I think I’m getting better looking with age.’ Keep reading for her smart skincare strategies.

She sticks to a skincare routine

Though Wilson has quite a collection of beauty products now, that wasn’t always the case. ‘I never was like a girly girl who was into stuff’ she told Byrdie. ‘But I am into facials now. I find them so relaxing. I never knew about anything beauty-wise until I came to Hollywood. I’m from the bush in Australia, so I really had to learn everything.’

She uses this budget-friendly ice roller from Amazon under the eyes and on the jawline first thing in the morning, before applying makeup, to depuff her face, which is great for filming days. When she’s working, she’s loyal to Dermalogica, especially their UltraCalming Cleanser, Multi-Active Toner, and Super Rich Repair Moisturiser.

She also likes the Kate Somerville DermalQuench +Retinol Advanced Resurfacing Treatment. ‘It just gives this cool tingling sensation when you spray it on,’ she has said. ‘Another friend who’s a makeup artist has been using it too. I also have been wearing a lot of Korean face masks lately. My friend supplies me with them. I don’t know what the hell is in them, but Koreans know their beauty products.’

She can do a 5-minute face

On days she doesn’t have a glam squad, Wilson takes matters into her own hands. ‘I definitely have my little essentials that I use if I have to quickly look presentable: Dior Addict Lip Glow—it’s a lipstick, but also kind of a gloss as well. It’s really easy, and you don’t even need a mirror to put it on,’she told Who What Wear.
