Selena’s own routine is slightly different, consisting of products from Clarisonic, Dr. Dennis Gross, First Aid, and Biore. “I like to have a good morning regimen. I use my Clarisonic in the shower with the Clarisonic Sonic Radiance Skin Renewing Peel Wash. I do that maybe four or five times a week, so my skin has a chance to breathe before all the madness starts,” she explained. “Dr. Dennis Gross Clinical Concentrate Radiance Booster on your cheekbones and around your eyes helps make you look alive. But what’s really great is First Aid Beauty’s Eye Duty Triple Remedy—if you get dark circles, it’s the shit. I’ll put it on, it feels all good and cold, go have a coffee, and that’s the bomb. The Biore Deep Cleansing Strips make me feel really accomplished when I do them, too—plus they work!”

Skipping out on her morning routine can make Gomez feel incomplete, setting a negative mood for the entire day. She noted how enjoyable it is to have an hour to wake up without makeup on, enjoying a cup of coffee.

And speaking of makeup, Selena Gomez reminds women that less is always more. Not only does your skin stay healthier without layers and layers of stuff caked on top of it, but the camera loves a natural look more than a made-up one.

“If I want to be really bronzed, I use Tarte Maracuja Bronzing Serumall over my face,” she said. “It has a little tint in it, but it doesn’t smell for days like self-tanner does. And because it’s a serum, it doesn’t make me break out. I never wear lipstick or lip gloss in my normal everyday life, but I do put the Fresh Sugar Lip Serum on morning and night to keep my lips hydrated. If I’m going into a meeting or something, I do the Chanel Lèvres Scintillantes Glossimer as a pretty top-coat over a little Nars Lip Pencil.”

Beauty isn’t just about the face, and Selena indicates she likes to take her time in the shower to pamper her body with the beneficial steam. Care2 explains steam frees up the body’s airways and thins out mucous membranes, also opening up pores and helping the body expel toxins.

“I like to take my time in the shower and turn it into a steam room—right now I’m using The Bath and Body Works Aromatherapy Sugar Eucalyptus Tea Scrub and USPA Mud Therapy Complete Body Rejuvenator,” she said. “It’s so funny, when you use it your whole body looks like it’s covered in mud. So I put the shower on really hot, I put the scrub on, use this scrub brush from The Body Shop, wash that off, and then I’ll put the Mud on and sit and let it all soak in. Maybe I’ll shave with the EOS Moisturizing Shave Cream, which is nice because it isn’t too thick.”

And last but not least, when the day has taken its toll, Selena Gomez helps her sore muscles by treating them with  Handheld Heat Muscle Balm by Sumbody or  Still Standing Pain Relieving Spray.
