Naomi Watts prefers to keep things simple. Unless she’s getting glammed up for filming or events, the actor is about as low-maintenance as it gets when it comes to her beauty and wellness routine.
“Most of the time, I’m a 5-minute girl if there’s no professionals around and there’s no cameras,” Watts tells POPSUGAR. “I really tend not to put too much time or effort into it. Mostly because I like to give my skin a break, I like to get my hair break. I don’t want to put product on my hair or heat. I like to give my skin time to breathe.”
While her daily makeup routine is usually limited to a pop of color on the cheeks and lips, Watts says she has a more thorough skin-care ritual. “I do spend time [on my skin care] morning and night, especially at night, making sure [my skin is] completely well-cleansed,” she says. “I do two or three steps depending on what’s happening that night or the next day. If I’m doing a photo shoot I might do something special like a mask or [use] an LED light.”
A big part of Watts’s routine is her beauty and wellness brand, Stripes, which was born out of the star’s own experience with early menopause. Still, there are plenty more items the actor swears by on the day to day. From her favorite retinoid moisturizer to her self-proclaimed sneaker fetish, keep scrolling to read all about Naomi Watts’s must-have products.
