How I Get That Celebrity Glow

March 15, 2012 | by Charli Schuler | 22 COMMENTS

Key moisturizing ingredients Glowing skin needs moisture, so keep skin hydrated with a moisturizer that contains antioxidants, glycerin, and hyaluronic acid. "[They] bring more moisture in from the environment and hold it in skin," says dermatologist Heidi Waldorf. (Try OLAY Pro-X Hydra Firming Cream, $47, or Obagi Professional-C Serums, $48-$99.)

$14 is way too much to ask for Covergirl. It should be half that, at most for that price point and product market segment.

i have genetically bad skin, so even with all of these tips, it still won't "glow"

I already do all of this and still don't have that "glow".

Everyone loves that dewy look. Kinda expensive if you have problem skin though. Thank you for the tips.

This is all so very true. If you take good care of your skin underneath your makeup, your natual glow will shine through. And if you don't have good skin to start with (like me), then all the tips and tricks to conceal and highlight are in order.

Nice tips, and most of the products were affordable. Yay!

Great Article_I have been a fan of the YSL pen for years-it does wonders for the eyes-especially loved the tip of highlighting the inner corner of the eyes-will definitely do. Also going to try the vitamin C- I have heard it does wonders.

Fabulous Article and Tips-highlighting inner corner of eyes is excellent and Fabulous Article-highlighting the inner corner of the eyes is a great idea and The Pen as a concealer definitely works-have been doing it for years-next I will do the Vitamin C. Looking forward to the results.

Great article! Glad it included some lifestyle changes also!

that YSL concealer is everywhere! it sounds sort of shimmery, so i wonder how that looks against thin undereye skin (i'm quite young, but my undereye already has a few laugh lines). i'm tempted to try it anyway, since it shows up in so many good lists!

interesting. will be trying some of these tips I haven't tried yet!

Bronzer is a must for my pale skin tone.

by Kary43 Saturday, March 17, 2012 at 11:36AM Report as inappropriate

diet is very important for a healthy glowing skin. monthly facial is a must to remove all the dead skin. dont over powder ur skin which i think is missed out in this article. and always use slightly shimmery stuffs to create the fake glow if you dont already have one .. but dont go all crazy about it and look like a clown LOL

I will be trying these tips. Really good article.

Another wonderful article! These are the exact steps I use to get that beautiful glow on. I can't say enough about the YSL Touche Eclat! It is a miracle worker that comes in different shades to match most skin tones and adds the perfect light to accentuate the good and minimize imperfections! This may seem like a lot of steps, but I can assure you it's really not. If you utilize these steps, your makeup time should take no more than 15 minutes, or so. Give it a try! Glowing skin is the number one secret for all of those movie stars so why can't it be our secret too? ;)
