1. She Uses Sunblock
Longoria has amazing skin. She has been a spokesperson for several different skin and beauty brands. She shared some of her skincare secrets in an interview with Prevention.com. “First and foremost, I’m a big sunblock user,” she says. “If you’re talking about skincare you have to use sunblock.” "Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S. Daily use of sunscreen that is SPF 15 or higher can reduce your risk of skin cancer. You can slash your risk of melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, by 50%. And you can decrease the risk of the most common skin cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, by 40%," says the Cleveland Clinic.

While some people might think facials are healthy, Longoria is not one of them. She explained to Prevention.com. “A lot of the time people think facials are so relaxing, but they’re not. They’re painful, they sting...you could do a peel, you could do extractions. I hate going to get a facial because it’s like tugging and pulling and peeling and things but it’s necessary.”
3. She Focuses On Health, Not Her Looks

After her divorce, Longoria struggled with her health, which led to her losing a lot of weight. "I was so thin, and everyone kept saying how great I looked and it was probably the most unhealthy place I've ever been," Longoria told Health. Now, Longoria says that she doesn’t focus on her looks, and aims to live as healthily as she can. "In my worst time, people were saying I've never looked better. But now I have a great diet and exercise routine and I try to have a healthy outlook."

Longoria is a great cook, and she says that she loves to cook with veggies. "I could easily be a vegetarian because I love vegetables so much," Longoria told InStyle. "I love cooking with vegetables and I have a secret for cooking with vegetables, which is that they don't need a lot. A lot of people cover them in cheese or cover them in a sauce, and vegetables really only need olive oil."
