Shields has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She tells Glamour that she has always been interested in skincare and learning about it. “We don’t really think of our skin as an organ, but it is the largest organ of the body,” she says. “So as I got older, I started enjoying the ritual or the idea that it’s not a chore to take care of your skin…it’s a privilege. It doesn’t have to be 20 minutes. It can be seven minutes.”
Shields revealed some of her skincare secrets to Glamour. She says that she goes to different dermatologists to get different treatments done. “I go to Dr. Liz Hale for sun damage and sun spots, such as Fraxel. I primarily go to Dr. Macrene Alexiades for treatments, such as peels and the Genesis treatment. I just don’t want a lot of pain or downtime.”
Shields tells Glamour that she only cleanses her face once a day. “I mainly cleanse just at night. In the morning, I’ll just throw water on my face, and maybe do a face mask if I have time.” Shields also revealed her go to cleanser in the interview. “True Botanicals Ginger Turmeric Cleansing Balm, which dissolves everything,” she says. “You don’t have to use any soap.”
Shields revealed some of her favorite wellness practices to Bustle. She says that she starts her mornings by relaxing. “Just the word ‘routine’ would make me happy. If I were to have a routine, I would say that I started taking baths when I [was recently filming a movie] in Scotland. I [was surprised] that if you take the right kind of bath, it’s invigorating but relaxing at the same time. I don’t start the day as stressed. I like having my tea, reading my newspaper, and being up before the craziness of the house starts.”
Shields also tells Bustle that she has started to practice meditation. She says that she thinks she could make this a part of her daily routine. “I’m starting to meditate a little bit. I know that once I get into it, I will be — at least partially — a convert. I’m so ‘multi-scheduled’ throughout every day, with [this business], and certain obligations I have to different companies that I’m working with.”
