Penelope Cruz reveals the deepest secrets of her ageless beauty

Sure, resisting a delicious cupcake or donut can be tough, but giving up sugar can be a huge boon for your skin. Penelope tries not to eat products that can harm her beauty.

“I try to avoid dairy products and sugar. Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables and quality animal protein. Now I also drink a lot of water, which I didn’t do before,” admitted Cruz.

Regular exercise helps you stay energized and improves your overall health. Daily exercise can also be good for your skin, and Cruz does her best to stay active.

“I do Bikram yoga, which has completely changed my body. I used to be lethargic, but now my energy levels are off the charts. It’s like magic, but that magic has to be earned,” she said.

The Jade facial massager is an affordable beauty tool that can do wonders for the skin, experts assure us. And Penelope thinks so too.

“My makeup artist Pablo Iglesias used a jade roller on our last film, and you know what? It really works,” the star shared.

The actress is also very disciplined in her evening beauty rituals and never misses them.

“I always cleanse and moisturize my skin,” she said.

And no, it’s not a beautiful soul. The actress agrees that beauty products alone are not enough, gut health and good nutrition are also vital.

“I am passionate about this idea. I truly believe your stomach is your second brain,” Cruz says.
