Julie makes sure to lather on SPF to protect her skin. She told People, “As a responsible parent with three kids who love to be outdoors, I rely totally on a good sunblock,” she told People. "I have tried many and my go to is Shade. It keeps working no matter how sweaty or how much time we spend in the water!”

Her diet is also on point. She explained to the Toronto Sun that she maintains a healthy and balanced diet. “We definitely try to eat mindfully,” she said. “As I always say to my kids, ‘You have to eat the good stuff to get the good stuff.’” She added, “remain calm, drink your water, get your sleep and be joyful.”

Moisturizing

Skincare products are an essential part of her approach. She makes sure to hydrate before traveling. “Before I get on an airplane, which I am doing today, I pile up on the skincare products," she told Hollywood Life. "You couldn’t hug me because I would just slip right away from you."

Taking Off Her Makeup at Night

Roberts is a firm believer in taking off her makeup before bed. One of her favorite products is Lancôme's Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover. “A lot of times you take off your eye makeup at night, and the next morning you wake up and look like you already put makeup on! But this formula gets rid of every stitch of makeup,” she told Viva

Roberts told The Independent that she's not a fan of exercise, but does it anyway. “Accomplishment, clarity, energy, strength, joy...these are all things I give myself through working out, and I can feel it in everything I do," she said. E News maintains that yoga is her workout of choice. She also enjoys pilates, swimming, and plyometrics (jump training). "After 90 minutes [of plyometrics], I'm lying in savasana like, 'Phew! I'm so glad that's behind me!'" she said.

Actress Eva Green has played a lot of iconic roles throughout her career. She’s a former Bond Girl, starring in Casino Royale. She starred in the hit Showtime series, Penny Dreadful. Green starred in the Disney live-action remake of Dumbo and the film adaptation of Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Eva Green stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!


1. She Juices

Green tells ELLE that she makes a lot of juices. “I'm becoming very LA. I drink lots of water and eat lots of green vegetables. I'm doing lots of juices at the moment. I kind of do apple, kale, carrot. I've got a fancy juicer. I started feeling very tired and everybody was like 'You should try the juicing,' but I really love it. I felt very weak. It was a revelation. And only organic fruit and vegetables. There's so many pesticides and shit. I discovered the book by Dr. Fuhrman where he talks about juicing and eating mainly vegetables.

2. She Runs

Green tells Marie Claire that she loves to run as a way to keep herself in shape. “I need to run to soothe my nerves. It’s a good way just to let it all out. I run every day for between 20 and 30 minutes. I find it difficult when I’m away filming to work out on my own; I need someone to kick my arse, so I run instead. I’m not some crazy Hollywood fitness type. When I’m working, the only thing I want to do when I get home is have a drink.”

3. She Uses Olive Oil On Her Hair

Green makes sure to take care of her hair. She shared some of her secrets with Marie Claire. Green says that she does things to reduce the amount of damage. “In the evenings, I put olive oil all over my hair. It’s very thick, and nourishes deeply, but it can stay on my hair even after shampooing, so I tend to use it when I’m not working.”

4. She Uses Quick Hair Treatments

Green tells Marie Claire that she keeps her hair treatments simple. “My hair is styled a lot. I hate spending too much time in the hairdressers, so I prefer quick treatments like the L’Oréal Professionnel Pro Fibre service [around £10-£15], which only takes about 15-minutes. My hair always feels thicker and healthier afterwards. I use the shampoo and conditioner at home to maintain it.”

5. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Green has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared some of her tips with Marie Claire. “Filming Penny Dreadful in Ireland last winter really took its toll on my skin,” Green revealed. “I rely on good, fragrance-free make-up remover from Cetaphil or Avéne and apply a cold cream to replenish my skin.”

6. She Wears Sunscreen

A big part of Green’s skincare routine is protecting her skin from the sun. She tells Marie Claire that she always wears sunscreen. “I always wear SPF,” she says. “But I find factor 50 too pale and thick, so I use SkinCeuticals Brightening UV Defense SPF30. I love Sisley’s treatments, too.”

7. She Loves Fruits & Veggies

Green tells Marie Claire that she likes to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables each day. “I’ve started steaming my vegetables, but I’m not a great cook. I like my food either steamed or raw to maintain the nutrients – and they need to be organic. I’m like my own chemist; I juice veg like kale, broccoli, watercress and cabbage to boost my immune system, and I add apples and grapes, so it’s more drinkable.”

Jessica Alba is a very successful actress. She’s known for action roles like Dark Angel and Fantastic Four. She’s also the founder of The Honest Company. Alba recently enjoyed a vacation to Chichen Itza, and shared some highlights on Instagram. In them, she went to the pyramids and the trails. Alba captioned the post, “I’ve wanted to visit Chichén Itza for years…! Bucket list experience.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Jessica Alba stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Makes Time For Self-Care

Despite her busy schedule, Alba makes time for self-care. "I think self-care is interesting,” she tells InStyle. “I think it's important whether you're a mom or not. And I think creating a way to preserve your time and really it's really forcing that sacred time that you need to just ground yourself and center yourself. Even just spending three minutes breathing and focusing on air that's coming into your nose and out of your mouth is so important. I didn't realize how important that self-care was and carving out that time."

2. She Uses Face Masks

Alba has amazing skin and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared some of her secrets with ELLE. “I do a face mask every morning, and it just wakes my skin up and forces me to do my multi-step skincare routine. Even though it's only four steps, it allows me to stop, breathe, and take time for myself, to not have to be a mom or the boss or a wife or friend.

3. She Eats A Balanced Diet

Alba tells People that she makes sure to eat a balanced diet. “As I’ve gotten older and after I became a mom, it became more of a priority to be healthy for the right reasons. It’s more important to have a balanced approach instead of trying to be perfect. I don’t deprive myself … I have [junk] if I want it. When I do feel that I am depriving myself, I find that I binge. That’s not a balanced way to go about it.”

4. She Uses Retinol

Alba shared some of her skincare secrets with Cosmopolitan. "I found retinol, which has been the greatest thing in the whole world,” she said. “I started using it after I had my first daughter (I don't use it when I'm pregnant); it takes away fine lines, it takes away spots and makes the texture of my skin better. I feel like I look younger now than I did when I was in my late 20s - it's incredible!”

5. She Keeps Her Skin Hydrated

Alba tells Cosmopolitan that she makes sure to keep her skin hydrated, and shared her secrets for doing so. "Finding a formula that isn't too drying is the key. Mine is a lotion called Resurface Retinol Reform – my facialist makes it and she ships it all over the world. It's the best because it doesn't overly-dry your skin, which is usually the case with retinol.”

Heidi Klum is dancing it up in a luxurious swimsuit! On Saturday, the German supermodel got the world’s attention, showing off her moves and her hot body in a bathing suit. Her message? Her new single collaboration for Germany’s Top Model theme song, Chai Tea with Heidi, played in the background. How does she manage to make 48 look like 24? Read on to see 8 ways Heidi Klum promotes longevity and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!


1. Beauty Boils Down to the Basics

According to Klum, her forever young beauty boils down to the basics. “A lot of beauty comes down to common sense,” she told Who What Wear. “I get bombarded with products from all over the world, and I love trying all of those different things, but for me, the basics are most important. When I eat well and keep hydrated I can see the difference in my face when I look in the mirror. You’ve got to look in the mirror and see if there is something up. That way, you know if you break out it could be because of the garbage you ate. If you look dry and your skin doesn’t snap back, you’re not hydrated. If you just look at yourself and listen, you know what to do.”

2. Her Diet Is Healthy

2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards: UNSCRIPTED - ArrivalsAmy Sussman/Getty Images

Klum maintains that you are what you eat. “For me, beauty is all about food. There is only so much you can do topically. I learned that a really long time ago. I’ve been in this industry since 1992 and I’ve always believed you are what you eat. Having said that, a lot of work has to go into every meal to make sure you’ve got all of the fatty acids, vitamins, antioxidants and hydration you need. We can’t do it all because it’s a lot of work to prepare. Often, I’ll find the time to do the prep (like put chia seeds in to soak overnight), but not everyone has the time and freedom to do things like this, especially as we get older! I find that a supplement is a great add-on to my already pretty healthy diet. A couple of years ago I started taking one Perfectil a day because I was getting older and thought, ‘What do I have to lose?!’ Of course, no pill will solve your beauty problems. Food always comes first, but I do think it’s a good boost,’” she told WWW.

3. She Washes Her Face with Baby Shampoo

Klum uses shampoo as a face wash. “A long time ago, I went to see an eye doctor because I had a sty and they told me to wash my face with Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo. Some days I’ll get home from work and have multiple layers of fake eyelashes on and lots of makeup and they told me that Baby Shampoo will mean I can really get into the eye and clean all of the makeup out. It made sense to me! Now it’s all I use. It’s not super-harsh unlike all of these products at the moment that strip your skin. Personally, they don’t work for me,” she told WWW.

4. Coconut Oil Is Her Favorite Product

Homemade,Coconut,Products,On,White,Wooden,Table,Background.,Oil,,Scrub,Shutterstock

Klum revealed to WWW that one of her favorite skincare products is actually cooking oil. “I love using just plain, old coconut oil that you get in the supermarket. Especially in Los Angeles right now, everything is so dry and I’m outside a lot. I love to lather up some coconut oil in my hair and on my body too. It’s so inexpensive and it just makes everything feel so yummy and nourished. In general, I like going more towards the natural things instead of the sorts of products that are full of perfumes and astringents. I really love trying all of those things but very rarely do I actually stick with it. I’d rather use coconut oil,” she told WWW.

5. She Uses Sunscreen

Klum revealed to Harper’s Bazaar UK that she hasn’t always slathered on SPF. "I have added sunscreen to my daily routine. I grew up without a lot of awareness of how important it is to keep your skin protected from the sun. I remember tanning with baby oil – can you imagine doing that now? I have always been a sun bum. I’m at my happiest on a beautiful beach in the hot sun but, now, I put on sunscreen first. I like the tinted sunscreen by La Roche Posay,” she said.

6. She Takes Supplements

"I definitely think that you can buy all the potions and creams but it is essential to nourish your skin from within,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “I drink a fresh smoothie every morning that is made from fresh fruit and vegetables, and I take two Perfectil Vitamins which are targeted for my skin, hair and nails."

7. She Exfoliates

Klum revealed to Elle UK that she is all about exfoliating, getting body scrubs at Beverly Hot Springs. “It's the best one I've ever had. They get off all your dead skin, I love it!” she said.

8. She Loves Drunk Elephant Products

In one of her Instagram posts, Klum revealed some of her skincare go-tos. They included Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Framboos™ Glycolic Resurfacing Night Serum, Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Sukari Babyfacial™ 25% AHA + 2% BHA Mask, and ​​Drunk Elephant C-Firma™ Vitamin C Day Serum.

Jones opened up about her skincare secrets in an interview with Into The Gloss. She says that she likes to give herself facials. “I think I started really caring about my skin when I was modeling, just because we have to wear so much makeup. I don't get facials professionally done, either—I like to do them at home. I find something very calming and therapeutic about treatments at home. I love the Sisley Black Rose Cream Mask—I use it with the Black Rose Oil or the Kiehl's Daily Reviving Concentrate.”

2. She Uses Night and Day Creams

Jones tells Into The Gloss that she uses both day and night cream on her skin. “My night cream, which I've used for a long time, is Sisley Supremÿa. It's the perfect amount of moisture, and it's anti-aging, too. I feel like my skin hasn't changed since I started using it. I'm afraid to stop using it, in case my face melts like a candle. [Laughs] My day cream is Sisley, too—All Day All Year.”

3. She Exfoliates

Jones is all about exfoliating her skin. “I've gotten really good about exfoliating, too,” she told Into The Gloss. “I like Dermalogica's Gentle Cream Exfoliant. You look so shiny and new after you use it! The Juara Invigorating Coffee Scrub is also really nice. It's ground coffee and oil, and it's a body scrub, but I use it on my face. It wakes you up and gives you a nice glow.”

4. She Takes Vitamins

Jones makes sure to take vitamins. She shared some of her favorites with Into The Gloss. “I am very good about taking my vitamins. [Laughs] I think my dad instilled that in me. I take vitamin C, vitamin B, turmeric, and I take probiotics and enzymes. I make sure my son takes his vitamin C and allergy serum in the morning, too. And I do take Biotin—I'm not sure if it does anything or not, but I started taking it for my nails because I had to wear acrylics for nine years for Mad Men.”

5. She Doesn’t Deprive Herself

Jones opened up about her diet in an interview with Shape. She says that she doesn’t like to deprive herself and eats healthy. “I don’t deprive myself of anything. If I want something—steak, a bagel—I’ll eat it. There’s no diet or strict set of rules. Last winter, I started drinking celery juice every day, and I’ve seen amazing results in my energy, digestion, and skin and how I sleep. I have that in the morning, then I take my vitamins and drink coffee. I don’t get hungry until around 10 a.m., but since I usually do Lagree at 9:30, I’ll make myself eat a banana beforehand so I don’t get too shaky. Then I have a MacroBar afterward and eat lunch around 11:30—usually salad, soup, or a sandwich.”

Olivia Culpo is a former Miss Universe, a current model, and a fashion icon. She’s currently on vacation with her friends, Brooks Nader and Devon Windsor. Culpo is posting a lot of highlights to her Instagram story. In one photo, Culpo posed in front of a mirror wearing a blue and white checked bathing suit. In another, she captioned it "Watermelon sugar." How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Olivia Culpo stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!


1. She Protects Her Face’s Natural Oils

American Valor: A Salute To Our HeroesPaul Morigi/Getty Images

Culpo revealed some of her wellness secrets to Net-A-Porter. She says that when it comes to skincare, she likes to keep her natural oils protected. “I don’t always wash my face in the morning as I like letting my natural oils do their thing, and I think face wash can make the skin quite dry. Instead, I always apply a super-hydrating moisturizer and drink a ton of water as soon as I wake up.”

2. She Keeps Her Morning Skincare Simple & Her Night Routine Varied

Culpo revealed some of her skincare secrets to Byrdie. She says that she keeps her morning routine simple and her night routine more complex. “In the morning, I just apply an SPF. I am always trying out new products, so what I gravitate toward is often changing. At night, I usually use an oil and a serum. Right now, I love the Clarins Double Serum ($90). In the morning, I use a Vitamin C serum and an SPF, and, typically, I just rinse my skin with warm water instead of using a cleanser. It is something I swear by—it allows for the oils on my skin from sleeping to absorb naturally.”

3. She Stopped Using Certain Products

Culpo revealed to Byrdie that she has cut some skin products out of her routine. “I am always making changes depending on where my skin is at. For example, I’ve recently stopped using retinol. Unfortunately, I love the sun so much and find it hard to completely protect my face from it. I’ve decided to forego some of those more intense facial products for more mild options, especially in the sunny summer months.”

4. She Stays Hydrated

Culpo makes sure to stay hydrated. She tells Nat-A-Porter that she makes sure to do this when she travels. “I double up my water intake by drinking lots and hydrate my skin topically. Flying is so dehydrating for the skin, so I always do a hydrating mask after landing. I also use SK-II Facial Treatment Essence and Caudalie Beauty Elixir during the flight to bring a little glow to the skin.”

5. She Eats Produce

OliviaCulpoOlivia Culpo/Instagram

Culpo tells Net-A-Porter that she makes sure to stay healthy. “I think it’s very important to get my greens in every day. I pick up fruit and vegetables from the farmers’ market on the weekends to juice throughout the week – it makes you feel so good, and using fresh ingredients makes all the difference. I also take supplements that boost my gut health and complexion.”

Bianca Bustamante is revving up her engine in 2025 – in her workout gear. In a new social media post, the racecar driver reveals she is taking “the next major step” in her physical journey as a race driver “and I’ve set the target high!” she says in a new Instagram post, filled with video clips of herself lifting heavy weights at the gym. “Never been more motivated in my life, it’s not physically easy for a girl in this sport, but I’m super excited to take on this new challenge and the next big step on my racing journey,” she added. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here are her top lifestyle tips.

Lifting Weights

Bianca spends hours at the gym where she focuses on strength training along with endurance, cardio, reaction time, and reflexes. “You know, to be a driver, it’s a complete package. It takes strength. It takes mental fortitude. It takes reflexes, smart thinking, and survival skills,” she told MEGA Active. “Sometimes it's for the body, sometimes it's for the mind. Nothing more peaceful than early sessions,” she captioned an Instagram post of one of her sessions.

Double Down On Training

In her recent post, Bianca reveals that she working extra hard at the gym. “I’ve been working hard over the years to build a solid foundation, but in 2025, I’ll be working with @j_w_90 and I’m doubling down on my training. Increasing to two workouts a day not just on lifts but aerobic endurance, as well as a better focus on nutrition and rest, in order to raise the bar to compete in the higher formulas,” she said.

Fueling Your Body With Protein

Bianca makes sure to eat enough protein in order to build more muscle and stay as lean as possible to meet the weight requirement. “It’s been a really cool journey seeing my body develop and transform into this whole different person I never knew I could become,” she said. In her new post she added that she is meal prepping. “I’m soooo all in that im even learning how to cook & meal prep better than ever before,” she writes.

Taking Cold Plunges

As for recovery, cold plunging is part of Bianca’s training regime. Limited research supports the benefits of cold plunges, which may include easing sore muscles, bringing body temperature down, increasing focus, improving sleep, and decreasing inflammation, per the Cleveland Clinic. However, a 2021 study found that cold water immersion therapy promotes post-sport recovery.

Working On Self-Esteem

Positive self-talk is also important. “Of course, I put a lot of pressure on myself, but in the end, I always tell myself that as long as I give my best and I learn from it, any mistake I make is valid,” Bianca explained. “I always try to repeat that to myself that I am valid. I’m here for a reason and there’s nothing I would rather do than be here.”

Brenda Perlaza is flaunting her fantastic figure in a tiny bikini. In a new social media post the influencer, who calls herself La Barbie Negra, looks flawless as she poses on the beach in a neon yellow swimsuit. “#viral,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Wow Wow,” one of her followers commented, while several others added fire emojis. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Jogging

Brenda enjoys jogging. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.

Walking Her Dog

She also takes her dog on long walks. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Dancing

You can also find Brenda dancing to burn calories. Dancing is an excellent workout for many reasons. It builds strength and promotes flexibility, helps you lose weight, and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop or die from heart disease than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues

Swimming

Brenda spends a lot of time in her swimsuit so it isn’t surprising she loves to swim. According to the CDC, swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, multiple studies support the mental health benefits of swimming.

Hydration

Finally, Brenda hydrates, especially after a long workout or sun exposure. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is essential for various reasons. Water helps eliminate waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature regular, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

She Swims

As you can see from her Instagram post, Romani likes to go to the beach. Naturally, she likes to swim to keep herself in shape. Romani shared this video on Instagram of herself taking a dip in a pool. She captioned it, “Kisses from the 305.” According to The Cleveland Clinic, swimming has a lot of health benefits. “Like other forms of cardio, swimming can help you burn calories and lose weight. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a 154-pound person who swims slow freestyle laps for 30 minutes burns 255 calories.

She Supports Animals

Romani has her own charity, Help Miami Cats. She talked about how she started this in the caption of this Instagram post. “❤️ Guys!!!! I have always loved cats and had many growing up. When I moved to Miami Beach I met a great calico named Chacha and learnt that cats were brought to the city by Mayor Lummus … against rodents. Cats rely on volunteers for their food and water and there’s a huge amount of them. There’s a city program to Spay and neuter with the wonderful @sobecats ladies and the feeding is made official by a City Sanctioned badge, yet new cats keep getting dumped daily sadly and there’s a never ending amount of work, emergencies and so on. I was on a feeding rotation but during the pandemic I was left alone caring for so many as people left town or couldn’t afford feeding anymore …I decided to start my own non profit @helpmiamicats . We feed close to 200 and when Batman got paralyzed took him and other special needs cats under my care … @stevensachs69 with the cat room and the amazing people involved devote their lives to these special souls … My life has changed a lot too … way less spare time, way more sweat and tears and lost the person I had by my side who had sadly other priorities … yet gained so much love from these lovely creatures !!! If you can please get involved in any way … follow @helpmiamicats , share, volunteer, adopt … donate … Only together we can make their world a better place !!! And yes … just me feeding the kitties and talking to them … 🤷🏻♀️👀😆❤️🙌”
