One thing Robbie likes to do to stay in shape is doing Pilates. "I really got into Pilates when I moved to LA [in 2013]," she says to WHO. "And I always feel a lot better after a good stretch." The Houston Methodist reports that Pilates has a lot of benefits. "The goal is to be in total control of your body as you move. That requires beginning from your central core muscles and using the stability these muscles provide to smoothly control your arms, legs and other extremities. This is no easy feat, which is what makes Pilates a great way to build strength and stamina."

Robbie revealed some of her favorite skincare products to Vogue. She says that she always remembers to take makeup off, and she has a favorite makeup wipe to do it. "When I'm traveling on a plane, I'll take my makeup off with a wipe and then I'll use Peter Thomas Roth Complexion Correction Pads. I honestly stumbled across them, and now I can't live without them. Your skin is better after. They're really strong."

Robbie tells Vogue that she likes to use face masks to keep her skin healthy. "One brand I'm obsessed with right now is this brand Skin111, which my make-up artist Patti Dubroff got me hooked on. They have these sheet masks, they're made out of a jelly sort of stuff and the serum they're soaked in is so good. So when we're getting ready for an event she'll put one of those on while she's doing my hair."
