Yara Shahidi: Make Self-Love a Priority
In an interview with E! News, the Grown-ish actress shared the best beauty advice she’s ever received:
“To focus on self-care first. I’ve learned a lot from my mother, and we always spoke about taking care of yourself first and foremost…Also, I’ve learned to look at beauty as a creative outlet. Use makeup to express yourself rather than to cover yourself. This is why I gravitate towards louder colors—there’s that feeling of taking up creative space when you go bold.”

David Beckham: Mask More Often
The former soccer player gets most of his beauty tips and tricks from her wife, Victoria Beckham. According to a recent interview, face masking is a new discovery that he’s picked up from his better half.
“The first time I did a mask was pretty recently, actually,” David revealed. “I tried the Tom Ford clay one, and I really like it. I very rarely have the time to do a mask, but Victoria loves to do it before she’s going to bed, or when she wakes up. Making the time to go for a nice facial is important—it doesn’t just make you look better, it makes you feel great as well.”
