Kate Hudson, 42, just shared the skincare products she swears by for a radiant and hydrated complexion.
Her favorite products include the Egyptian Magic All Purpose Cream and the ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40.
“I really do love beauty, I learn fun tricks,” Hudson said during a recent Instagram Story.
We absolutely love when celebrities share the skincare products they swear by and we jump for joy when they actually show proof of themselves using the products on a daily basis—something Kate Hudson has no problem doing.
In a recent Instagram Story, Hudson filmed her entire skincare routine, showing off all the products and techniques she uses to get a glowy and moisturized complexion. Her product lineup consists of the Egyptian Magic All Purpose Cream, Juice Beauty Revitalizing Acacia + Rose Powder Mask, Ayuna Facial Cream II, Dr. Barbara Sturm Eye Cream, Jillian Dempsey Gold Sculpting Bar, and the ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40.
Hudson kicked off the video saying, “I really do love beauty, I learn fun tricks,” and she is certainly telling the truth. We’ve learned countless beauty tips and tricks from the actress, thanks to her wealth of Instagram beauty videos.
Next, in the video, she gives a step-by-step tutorial of her skincare routine. Luckily, we gathered all the information (including all the products) you need to know to recreate Hudson’s routine for glowing, hydrated skin.
First, she cleanses her face.
“Here’s the Egyptian Magic All Purpose Cream, I use this to take off all my eye makeup and it never stings my eyes, it always works,” said Hudson. “And I don’t feel like it’s bad for my face.”
Hudson dips a cotton swab into the product and then applies it to the top of her hand to remove excess and then rubs it all over her eyelids to take off any lingering makeup. She also gently runs the swab along her lashes to get off mascara residue.
The Magic Cream’s powerful ingredients are complemented by its unique texture. It starts out as a balm but turns into a nourishing oil as it’s rubbed into the skin. What makes it even more special is its unique formula, made with antioxidant-rich ingredients like bee propolis, bee pollen, beeswax, honey, olive oil, and royal jelly. Propolis and pollen also have anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. (However, some people can be allergic to bee products, so always test a patch of skin before applying all over!)
Then she hydrates skin with a facial mask
Next, she follows up with the Juice Beauty Revitalizing Acacia + Rose Powder Mask she helped create with the brand. She uses a tiny spoon-shaped applicator to rub the mask all over her cheeks, forehead, and nose and lets it sit for about three minutes before removing it.
Hudson shared a previous video to Instagram using the face mask and said, “It’s not just another mask. It’s exceptional and you can see the results instantly!”
The Juice Beauty Revitalizing Acacia + Rose Powder Mask is designed to gently detoxify impurities and replenish the skin with antioxidant-rich plant nutrients. Its formula is infused with many good-for-you skincare ingredients like acacia powder, rose petal photopigment powder, hyaluronic acid salt, and organic olive leaf powder.
The secret to its hydrating and glowy boost is the high-tech proprietary blend of powders, which work to brighten your overall complexion (according to the brand). Meanwhile, the rose petals contain vitamin C, a natural skin brightener.
And tackles wrinkles with a face cream
“This is another product I have loved, it’s called Ayuna...the original one,” said Hudson. “It’s a little dry here in L.A. right now and I’m going to use a bit more cream,” she adds.
Designed with hydrating ingredients, this facial moisturizer works to create an overall brighter and smoother complexion. Its key ingredients include botanical cells (to help the skin maintain its ability to create new cells), sweet almond oil (to nourish and moisturize), and organic lemon water that works to illuminate the skin, according to the brand.
Next, an eye cream that targets dark circles and fine lines
Following up with her eye cream, the Dr. Barbara Sturm Eye Cream, Hudson scoops out a dime-sized amount of product and dabs it underneath her eyes and all over her lids.
This eye cream is made to target signs of aging like wrinkles, puffiness, and fine lines. The brand claims that it can help the skin retain moisture for a more youthful appearance, over time.
Finally, sunscreen is a must
Hudson wraps up her skincare regimen by applying a hybrid skincare product, the ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40. One part serum and one part sunscreen, this product combines makeup and skincare into one magic formula. “Love this,” said Hudson as she applies the product to her face.
Available in 30 various shades, this super serum skin tint enhances your complexion and leaves skin feeling super soft. It’s made with a blend of hyaluronic acids (to lock in moisture), plant-based squalane (which helps to hydrate the skin without leaving behind a greasy finish), and niacinamide (promotes even skin tone).
“Niacinamide does a little bit of everything with minimum to potentially no irritation, making it a very inclusive ingredient,” said Elyse Love M.D., a board-certified dermatologist based in New York City, in a previous interview for Prevention. “This powerhouse ingredient soothes the skin barrier, decreases overall irritation for a slew of skin issues, helps enhance skin’s overall moisture, reduces oiliness, and promotes more even skin tones,” she explained.
Plus, it’s silicone-free, fragrance-free, and non-comedogenic, making it safe for sensitive skin.
