She spilled her skin care secrets to InStyle.
Jessica Chastain’s love of skin care started at a young age. When she was in the sixth grade, she recalls her grandmother taking her to a cosmetics counter, which “kicked off her ritual of taking care of her skin,” she exclusively tells InStyle. Now, nearly 36 years after her grandma first introduced her to the world of skin care, Chastain is the face of celebrity-loved beauty brand, True Botanicals, and a source of endless beauty wisdom, much of which she just spilled to me.
Chastain, whose skin is always glowy—like always—revealed her secret to achieving “a gorgeous glow,” and I was obviously all ears. “My makeup artist showed me when to layer a serum into my…routine and the importance of patting it into the skin,” she tells InStyle. The True Botanicals Chebula Serum layers beautifully under makeup; it gives my skin a gorgeous glow.”

The actress also praised the Chebula’s line Extreme Cream, a thick, rich face moisturizer, noting it’s “an essential,” and “the best for my dry skin, especially for New York winters.” The best part? Both of these Chastain-approved beauty buys are part of the brand’s Anti-Aging Trio set that’s 50 percent off for InStyle readers only. Simply use the code JESSICA50 at checkout to get more than $200 off the set.

But what else does she swear by? Chastain also revealed that the True Botanicals Renew Nourishing Cleanser “helps get [her] out of bed in the morning.” She noted that “it smells amazing and makes [her] skin feel really fresh.”. And when asked about her five-minute makeup routine (because we’re all busy, you’re welcome), she said the brand’s famous Pure Radiance Oil is her first step, sharing it leaves her skin “so plump and glowy.” No wonder celebs like Eva Mendes, Brooke Shields, and more swear by it, too.

Given the fact that people are gearing up for holiday travels, I also had to ask the star what she never boards a plane without. “I love a sheet mask when traveling. I’ll throw a sheet mask on, put a breathable scarf over my head and fall asleep. It’s great because you wake up in a new city with great skin.”
Curious to try one or all of Chastain’s go-to products? Same. I swear by the Chebula serum, though I’m going to use it as she suggested (under makeup for glowy skin!), and I’ll certainly add the Extreme Cream to my rotation, too, as my skin gets very dry this time of year.
