Paltrow revealed some of her wellness secrets to W Magazine. She says that she keeps things natural. "Over the years, I've learned how important it is to read labels and know what's in a product before putting anything in or on my body. There can be so many unnecessary ingredients in products that we just don't need, and even scarier, there are a lot of toxic, harmful ingredients that are masked by product marketing. Xeomin has impressive clinicals, and the formulation is uniquely purified to remove unnecessary proteins, so you're not putting excess ingredients into your face."

Paltrow tells W Magazine that she drinks a lot of water each day. She says that she also uses powders from Goop in her water. "I'm pretty consistent in my routine, though I am always testing out something or other for Goop. I start my morning, always, with Goopglow Morning Skin Superpowder in my water bottle. It's full of antioxidants and fights free radicals from the inside out."

Paltrow has amazing skin. She tells W Magazine that one thing she does is use some of her facial masks. "The Goopglow microderm is pretty much the only mask I use. It's only three minutes, but it's a powerful little jar. Once a week, I'll skip the microderm and do the Goopglow 15% Glycolic Acid peel at night. It's akin to getting a chemical peel at the dermatologist, so it's not for the faint of heart. It refines, retexturizes, and brightens overnight, while moisturizing with hyaluronic acid, so you wake up with a covetable glow. We also made a version with 5% Glycolic Acid for those with more sensitive skin."

Paltrow has a busy schedule, however, she always makes time to unwind. She revealed her routine to W Magazine. "I take a 20-minute bath every night. I need that ritual of unwinding from the day" "Research has found that your body experiences some of the same changes during a warm bath as it does during exercise, including better blood flow, a higher heart rate, and stronger heart contractions. And now, a study published online March 24, 2020, by the journal Heart has shown that middle-aged people in Japan who took a daily bath in either warm or hot water had a 28% lower risk of heart and blood vessel disease than people who didn't bathe in the tub more than twice a week," says Harvard Health.

Paltrow makes sure to eat healthy. She revealed some of her favorite foods and options to Harper's Bazaar. "I'm usually eating for lunch stuff that you would see on the Goop website," she says. "Like a salad with some protein, or sometimes they're testing something really fun for detox, like they're using jicama for taco shells. They'll do a really clean version of a turkey burger with some kind of great sauce. It's very healthy and wrapped in lettuce or something like that."
