Secret #1: They stick with it

Most anti-aging products take at least three months to work, antioxidants require a couple of months, and skin lighteners can take up to four months. Many celebrities want to avoid plastic surgery so they require maximum results with their skin care products. So they rely on a long term commitment to a product line for receive the best benefit.

Secret #2: They use non-injectable fillers

When auditioning for movie roles, celebrities often forgo their Botox so their emotions can come through in their facial expressions. But for events and parties, they still want to look fabulous. Celebrities are turning to Hyaluronic Acid Filling Spheres. This ingredient resembles tiny micro-sponges. When applied to the surface of the skin, the spheres enter into the lines and wrinkles and penetrate the upper layers of the epidermis. The Hyaluronic Filling Spheres rehydrate with the water in skin, plumping up lines and wrinkles, making them less noticeable for up to ten hours. Renée Rouleau Instant Line Filler is the injection-free, surgery-free and pain-free answer to visibly smoother, less lined skin.

Secret #3: They get constant facials

Skin peels, oxygen treatments, microdermabrasion, ultrasound exfoliation, LED light, micro current...they do it all, often times on a weekly basis. They are in the public eye so their skin needs to look its best so they receive all the latest technology that skin care treatments offer.

The ultimate in skin treatments luxury begins with the Renée Rouleau Synergy 7 Facial. With a price tag of $600, this IS Dallas' most expensive facial. Synergy 7 takes the best age-defying facials and combines them into one amazing 2-hour treatment based on seven different focuses--deep cleanse, resurface, Vitamin C infusion, lift & firm, repair & hydrate, oxygen infusion and calm & protect. Skin will be healthier. Skin will have a more youthful radiance. Skin will be renewed.

Secret #4: They stay out of the sun

Marcia Cross, Madonna and Nicole Kidman are known for staying out of the sun. They wear hats, sunglasses and long sleeve shirts to keep their skin looking flawless.

Try Renée Rouleau Daily Protection SPF 30 which offers both UVA and UVB broad spectrum sun protection.

Secret #5: They tend to their ears

A way to know if someone has had a face lift or intensive laser skin resurfacing is to look at their ears. The skin on the ears and the face should look similar, and celebrities know this. So after skin procedures, they also do exfoliating treatments and peels to the ears to remove sun damage. A great "earcial" treatment consists of exfoliating the ears with the new Renée Rouleau Micro Crystal Cream (concentrating on the lobes and the outer ears, rinse well and apply the new Renée Rouleau Pure Radiance Mask. Leave on for 10 minutes and rinse. The result is visibly smoother and softer, less sun-damaged ears. Or get an Ear Peel ($50) at the Renée Rouleau Skin Care Spas.

Secret #6: They are going natural

The trend of using less chemicals and more natural ingredients on their skin is in full force. Avoiding skin care products with artificial fragrances, artificial colorants and sulfates (drying detergents found in foaming cleansers) is a must for many celebrities. And testing products on animals is definitely a no-no. Alicia Silverstone and Pamela Anderson are famous for their ties with PETA (People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals).

Secret # 7: Their flaws are airbrushed

Celebrities are humans, too. They get break outs, sensitivity and wrinkles just like all of us. And the truth is, the way your skin behaves is directly tied to your genetics. So the magic of airbrushed photos make their skin look flawless.
