Queen Letizia maintains a disciplined daily skincare routine focused on facial massages, moisturizing treatments, and consistent sun protection, according to her former facialist Carmen Navarro.
Navarro, who cared for the queen's skin for years, said official information about her night-time ritual is limited because Queen Letizia has not shared a detailed routine. However, Navarro described her as exceptionally disciplined, noting that night-time care does not need to be complicated as long as it is done consistently.
During appointment visits, Navarro performed facial cleanses, moisturizing treatments, and acid treatments on the queen. She noted that Queen Letizia preferred products made with plant-based active ingredients.
Nighttime facial massage technique
Navarro said Queen Letizia particularly enjoyed facial massages because they helped her relax. The facial massage is one of the few beauty rituals directly connected to Queen Letizia by a professional who managed her skincare.
The technique takes two or three minutes in the evening after cleansing and applying products. Using fingers without applying pressure, the face is worked in upward motions starting from the center and moving outward, while neck movements direct downward toward the collarbones.
Navarro described the massage as a small pause at the end of the day rather than a complicated extra step. The primary benefit Queen Letizia derived from the practice was a sense of relaxation.
Sun protection and daily fitness habits
Navarro also stated that Queen Letizia was particularly concerned about sun spots and remained extremely consistent with sun protection. Whenever she was in the sun, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat formed part of her daily routine to limit photoaging and skin discoloration from UV radiation.
Queen Letizia avoids fast beauty fixes in favor of a broad wellness strategy that includes exercise, a balanced diet, skincare, and sun protection. Vogue España documented her exercise routine, which incorporates yoga, running, power walking, and other physical workouts.
Her approach to skincare relies on clean skin, hydration, periodic treatments, and home consistency. Navarro emphasized that Queen Letizia strictly followed professional skincare instructions and continued her routine at home.
