After recently celebrating her 49th birthday, Elizabeth Banks decided she “had to step up [her] beauty game”. Forget the 10-step routines and painful invasive procedures. When it comes to Elizabeth’s regimen, the Hunger Games star told People: “My skin is a reflection of what’s going on with me holistically.” Before comparing her beauty routine as “health care” for her skin.
So, what exactly does a ‘holistic’ beauty routine look like? Well, according to Elizabeth, her skin is a window into what’s going on inside. “You can get away with so much when you’re young, now I just realise that I can’t.”
This means, “a little less drinking, a lot more sleep and a lot more hydration.” All in conjunction with a powerful skin care routine, of course.
Specifically, Elizabeth has been using UK pharmacy cult-favourite No7 (which is stocked in Priceline here in Aus). “They are tiny but pack a big punch,” Elizabeth said, speaking of the Lift & Luminate Triple Action Day Cream ($49.99, Priceline) and Lift & Luminate Triple Action Serum ($54.99, Priceline).
Both products have been formulated to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, firm the skin and fade dark spots and pigmentation. In particular the retinol-infused Triple Action Serum, which despite Elizabeth’s initial hesitation, hasn’t dried out her skin. A win.
“I was thrilled by them,” she said. “No7 made me feel comfortable changing things up.” Aw, we love a happy ending!
Have you ever tried No7? What skin care range makes you feel the most confident?
Never tried that brand.
Neither have I
I was paging through the PriceLine magazine and saw an ad for this product. First time I have heard of it.
I have heard of it but never seen it -on the whole I prefer Aussi and NZ brands
Oh have been given these to try. My skin hated the day cream the most. HAd to toss away. Serum is bad too, also disposed of it.. Night cream I managed to use up as a body cream, as dislike to throw products away if possible.
Not familiar with the brand
I don’t think I’d try this as I like to buy Aussie-made when possible.
The one product that has made the biggest difference to my skin is rosehip oil – I’m always rabbiting on about it.
yes I look for NZ or Aussi brands first
I have never tried No7
I think I’ve seen ads for that and it did catch my attention
WOW, would never have guessed she was 49 in those pics. Whatever her health and skincare regime currently is, its working.
I was shocked by her age too, she’s stunning
she is wise to concentrate on inside health to keep her amazing looks
She looks very young I agree.
It’s all new to me. Haven’t seen it in stores.
Haven’t tried before, however I did see them in Priceline recently
I think No7 is on special at Priceline too
That’s good to know. Thanks!
I do like No 7 products
She is a beautiful lady and the article is so sensible regarding taking care of the inner you
Skin definitely reveals what else is going on! True!
Yes and good to see someone touting taking care of the inner you first
I have only tried one thing from No 7 so far but it wasn’t worth it. Still keen to try other products in the range.
Heard but not used this
She looks great in green.
I do think green is a good colour for blondes
I think so too.
So glad that Elizabeth Banks loved using No.7 Skincare Products.
I have’nt tried this brand yet, but intend to.
Wow, she looks truly amazing
I haven’t tried this brand before but it is affordable
Haven’t tried the brand would prefer to try Australian brands where possible.
I haven’t heard this brand.
I haven’t heard of that brand.
I used that brand years ago when I lived in Britain. I should really revisit it.
Ive heard no.7 products are really good, but i haven’t personally tried any yet.
I’ve used the No.7 Restore & Renew range which worked really well on my skin.
I’ve been wanting to try this brand but haven’t yet.
I’ve heard lots of good things about No.7. I always see it in Priceline.
I haven’t tried this, but I would like too.
