You might recognize Kristen Bell for her incredible on-screen performances and iconic roles, but did you know the 41-year-old actress can’t live without her Clarisonic exfoliating brush (although unfortunately, it’s now discontinued), relies on meditation to calm her complexion and created her own line of CBD skincare products? On a recent segment of Vogue’s Beauty Secrets, Bell guided fans through her get-ready-with-me routine featuring a collection of her trustworthy skincare and beauty essentials.

As one can expect from any busy actress, Bell kicked off her regimen fresh out of work with a face full of glam. So naturally, she used a product from her own skincare brand — Happy Dance CBD Head-to-Toe Coconut Melt — to remove her eye makeup. In fact, she emphasized the importance of cleansing her face properly, “otherwise it just gets angry and red and it’s awful.” Taking that seriously, she then applied the Instytutum Transforming Melting Cleanser using her secret weapon: the Clarisonic exfoliating brush.

After massaging the iS Clinical Active Serum on her skin, Bell tackled redness once more with the SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Gel. Then she shared a little skincare hack while applying Dr. Barbara Sturm Eye Cream: “The skin on your neck and the skin on your lips is thinner than the rest of your body, which is why it needs a different cream. So if I’ve got any excess, boom, it’s a lip balm.”

Later, Bell got real about maintaining her radiant visage: “When you’re focused on skin care, I think people miss the steps that affect the skin so much, which is your mental health or your stress.” For that reason, she stays well-hydrated throughout the day; recovers each night with at least eight or nine hours of sleep; and calms her mind with the occasional meditation session. “If I can find 10 minutes once or even twice a week, my whole body, my digestion, my skin, my attitude, it’s all calmer,” she said.

Bell wrapped up her skincare routine with moisturizer and sunscreen before moving on to her everyday makeup look. Though several products were used, each step seemed to hardly alter Bell’s natural face — there’s no doubt that this Hollywood star mastered the makeup-no-makeup look.
