Scheana Shay has been a main cast member of Vanderpump Rules since the beginning. She revealed to Us Weekly that she turned to carb cycling to help with weight loss. “It’s like, one day carbs, one day no carbs. Or one day carbs, two days no carbs. And it worked. My stomach’s getting a little flatter.”

2. Katie Maloney

Vanderpump Rules star Katie Maloney divorced her husband, fellow cast member Tom Schwartz, last year. She opened up about her decision to do so both on the show, and on her podcast, You’re Gonna Love Me. “I realized that I had to really start prioritizing myself and my happiness as well,” Maloney said on the podcast. “It just needed to happen. That’s just what everything inside of me was saying, I thought it got to a point where I just felt like I was going to burst. For months, it was building up. I felt just disconnected. I felt like I was drifting further and further away.”

3. Kenya Moore

Kenya Moore is one of the breakout stars of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. She has amazing skin, and makes sure to take care of it. “I have suffered with cystic acne my whole life,” she said on an Amazon Live. “It’s not like regular acne and you just get a bump, put some cream on it, and it goes away. I was constantly at the dermatologist. My skin has greatly improved partly because of my regimen. I am taking care of myself from the inside out and using great products.”

4. Cynthia Bailey

Cynthia Bailey was a cast member on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. She’s known for her amazing skin, and shared some of her favorite products with PureWow.com. “I use a daily exfoliator to consistently remove dead skin cells and leave my skin with a healthy ‘fresh from the spa’ radiance. One of my favorites is Neutrogena Hydro Boost Exfoliating Cleanser, because it increases my skin's hydration level and leaves behind an effortless glow.”

5. Whitney Rose

In addition to being a cast member on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Whitney Rose also took a trip to Thailand with some of her fellow Bravo cast members on season three of Real Housewives - Ultimate Girls Trip. Rose revealed on Instagram that she picked up a new workout on her trip. “I love Muay Thai. It’s my goal to get back into it this year. It was a dream come true to train in Thailand. Too bad no one wanted to combat me. Thank you @the_real_pepsi_thailand for filming me!”

6. Lisa Barlow

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Lisa Barlow is known for her amazing hair. She revealed to New York Magazine that she uses the N + B Core Bundle. “My hair is everything. I try hard to take amazing care of my hair. I really love this line because it’s paraben free, sulfate free, all the frees of any bad things you don’t want in your hair. The shampoo is extra cleansing and the conditioner’s extra hydrating. I take it with me everywhere, and it makes my hair super-smooth and shiny. It feels luxurious, but it’s affordable, too.”

7. Meredith Marks

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City cast member, Meredith Marks shared her skincare secrets with Us Weekly. “I’m a bit of a product whore,” she says. “I love skincare products.

She’s just such a talented doctor, always on the forefront of new cutting-edge skincare.”

8. Ashley Darby

Real Housewives of Potomac star, Ashley Darby, shared some of her wellness tips with The Feast. “You should try to drink at least three liters of water a day," she advised. "You have to stop drinking the wine... I’m saying maybe two glasses a week. The thing about wine is that it's made out of grapes, which are fermented, and it's basically sugar. You might as well be eating Pixie Stix after Pixie Stix."

9. Heather Gay

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Heather Gay shared some of her favorite foods with BravoTV.com. She says that she occasionally adapts a keto diet, and loves cheese as a snack. “Whenever I try to do Keto, we've got blue cheese dressing, some yogurt, some Babybel cheeses. I'm a big fan of the Babybel cheese. I feel, like, European and fancy when I take the little red rind off. There's just something about it that makes me feel like it's less impulsive of a snack and more of a thoughtful bite."

10. Gizelle Bryant

In addition to being an original cast member on The Real Housewives of Potomac, Gizelle Bryant is also a makeup maven, with her own line, Hue Beauty. Bryant tells E! News that she makes sure to take care of her skin, which includes removing her makeup. "I have a lot of makeup on because it needs to hold up under the lights. I use the makeup wipes first. Then, I started using this balm from True Botanicals. The makeup melts right off. It's soft and it's kind of oily a little bit. It's heaven. It works so well."

11. Lala Kent

Los,Angeles,-,Sep,10:,Lala,Kent,At,The,SummerShutterstock

Vanderpump Rules star, Lala Kent, shared her skincare secrets with Glamour. “The first step is my LHA cleanser gel by SkinCeuticals,” she says. “I love it because I find a lot of my cleansers do not take my makeup off fully, and I have to use a good toner or I’m going through tons of makeup wipes to get it off. I have white bedding; I don’t want anything on it. It’s also decongesting. When I’m filming, I like a matte finish on camera, and my pores get clogged very quickly, so I need something that’s going to pull everything off my face.”

12. Heather Dubrow

Los,Angeles,-,May,23:,Heather,Dubrow,At,The,48thShutterstock

In addition to starring on The Real Housewives of Orange County, Heather Dubrow and her husband have written their own nutrition book, The Dubrow Keto Fusion Diet. She tells HollywoodLife that it is a combination of the keto diet and intermittent fasting. “We call it the 12-8-4 plan. Basically 12 hours of fasting, eight hours of keto friendly food and then four hours of a diet where we’re reintroducing carbs.”

13. Emily Simpson

Emily Simpson has been open about her struggles with weight on The Real Housewives of Orange County. She shared her workout routine on her Instagram stories. “For the past few months I’ve been working out [seven] days a week on average,” she says. “Of course I miss a day here and there but it’s not often. I do 15-20 minutes of cardio followed by about 45 minutes of weights and then I end with 10 minutes of cardio.”

14. Tamra Judge

15. Ariana Madix

Santa,Monica,,Ca,Usa,-,June,5,,2022.,Ariana,MadixShutterstock

Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix isn’t afraid to stand up against body shaming. She told E! News, "I don't think it needs attention but I've gained over 20 pounds since I started the show the first season, and I'm constantly being told that I got filler in my cheeks and I'm very self-conscious about having like a chubby face and I've always wanted an angular jawline and an angular cheekbone so when people say that, I don't think you guys realize how rude you're being.”

16. NeNe Leakes

Los,Angeles,-,Sep,15:,Nene,Leakes,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

NeNe Leakes is one of the most well-known Bravo cast members, appearing on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. In an interview with HollywoodLife, she revealed that she’s made changes to her wellness routine. “We’ve really been trying to do better and eat better and eliminate the junk,” she said. “I’m not doing anything crazy like doing the elliptical or riding the bike or running. I started being a pescatarian and he was plant-based, so I started there. It did help me and I felt different. I lost a couple of pounds. I’m not a big eater. But what I started to do, was just have small portions. I feel like I eat about four times a day – four, sometimes five – just nibbling on stuff, and I feel really satisfied.”

17. Robyn Dixon

That’s why it’s so important for me to switch my cardio sessions up (thank goodness for @kettlebellchicks ). This treadmill circuit is a beast and isn’t a bore. 45 minutes will do your body good!”

18. Kyle Richards

Teresa Giudice is Bravo’s longest running housewives, being a main cast member on The Real Housewives of New Jersey for 14 seasons. She shared some of her skincare secrets with Glamour. “I'm religious about making sure I always moisturize and wear eye cream. I think it’s important to switch them up and not always use the same thing, because I feel like my skin gets used to it. Right now I’m using Charlotte Tilbury's Magic Cream ($100). And then I’ve been using Shiseido's Wrinkle Resist eye cream ($60) and Tarte's Maracuja Eye Treatment ($38) for my eyes.”
