Ratajkowski has incredible skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She revealed to Vogue that she has learned to keep her skincare routine pretty simple, after trying a bunch of things at home."In quarantine, I went crazy and ordered a bunch of skincare products. One of the things I've learned about beauty: I just need the basics and for them to be really good. That was one of the ways that my skin freaked out because I was overusing products."

2. She Loves Face Masks

Ratajkowksi tells New Beauty that she loves to use face masks. She says that she loves the LOOPS brand in particular. “What I love about LOOPS is that it’s a mask that I can throw on for 15 minutes while I’m answering calls from bed. Or even like this morning—I had kind of a hectic morning and I was making my bed and running around having my coffee and taking calls, and I kept the face mask on while I was doing all of that, then I took it off and did my makeup.”

3. She Washes Her Face Gently, And Only Once A Day

Ratajkowski tells New Beauty that she makes sure to wash her face. She says that she only does so once a day, and makes sure to be gentle on her skin. “I used to think washing your face was really, really important—and I do still—but I think you should only wash it once a day at night, and really lightly. Because otherwise, at least for my skin, it strips my skin of the natural oils and makes my skin breakout because it dries. So I do wash my face at night, but I think simplifying it is better [for your skin]. Oh, and use cold water—not hot! That’s my new trick.”

4. She Loves Fitness Classes

Ratajkowski tells InStyle that she loves to go to fitness classes in order to help her stay in shape. “I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself, so the class environment works really, really well for me.” One of Ratajkowski’s favorite classes is STRONG classes from Zumba.

5. She Works Out To Help Herself Sleep

Ratajkowski loves to work out at night, and she told InStyle that it helps her sleep better. "For me, the way I sleep afterwards is one of the main reasons to work out,” she says. “I am always on my phone working and I think that's affected my sleep. I'm also really light-sensitive. When I work out, it's better than taking a melatonin. Because my body has worked hard, my brain finally rests and I think that is so valuable in this day and age — not to sound like an old geezer, but truly I feel that way."
