Larson opened up about her skincare routine to Allure. She says that skincare and beauty are priorities to her. “And then around the time I was training for Captain Marvel, I started to become interested in [beauty] again. I had rejected it for so long that I could come to it with my own approach, outside of what I felt like was being imposed upon me. One of the things I [am] trying to learn how to do in quarantine is a smoky eye, which I did not think was going to be part of my journey, but I love it now. I love the process of relearning this thing that I was interested in in the past and the transformative aspect of it.”

2. She Uses Rituals

Larson tells Allure that she uses skincare rituals. “[Now] for my job, I really use [beauty] as a tool of conveying a person that's separate from myself. I'm trying to get under the skin of the person that I'm playing. And that means shifting my mental state. I think Short Term 12 was the first time that I had parted my hair in the center. I would do these really long, hard days on that shoot, and I would come home and immediately brush my hair over to a left part. I always need to find a ritual of how I get back into myself because it's part of the completion of the cycle.”

Larson tells Allure that she likes to scuba dive to stay in shape. “I started scuba diving, and that became a whole new revelation as to how I get in and out of characters. You can't just dive into the ocean. You have to have a plan. You have to understand the process of going down and then the process of coming back up, and you have to allow air for that.”

4. She Takes Care Of Her Skin Twice A Day

Larson makes sure to take care of her skin in both the morning and the night. She tells Allure, “Now, inside my home that I've been in for months on end, my skin-care routine has become how I begin and end my day. I am much more regimented about it than I ever was before because it's like, ‘Okay, the day has begun. I'm going to wash my face. I'm going to moisturize.’”

5. She Uses Natural Products

Larson tells Allure that she likes to use natural skincare products, and she has two that she likes in particular. “To wash my face, I might use coconut or olive oil. When I used to travel and do pressers and things and I didn't want to bring tons of products, I would just ask the hotel for olive oil. Oil my face, hot towel.”

6. She Eats Fruit For Dessert

Larson’s nutritionist, Dr. Phillip Goglia, shared some of her diet secrets to People. He says that Larson likes to eat fruit for dessert when she’s prepping for a role. “The purpose of a fruit dessert, like a little cup of berries or a fruit snack after dinner is to actually spike your insulin so you sleep deeply in a hypoglycemic state. Then your body releases more growth hormone and you burn more fat.”

7. She Eats Bridge Meals

Dr. Goglia tells People that Larson likes to eat bridge meals. "You're using fat metabolism and that will be your bridge meal to get to dinner,” he explained. “So that dinner is an appetite environment that will not allow you to crave carbs because you've already eaten… you're kind of full. You're not in low blood sugar."
