7 Beauty Secrets of Astoundingly Well-Preserved Celebrity Men

It might be a side effect of having to keep up with these ladies (opens in new tab) and, sigh, their ever-younger love interests (opens in new tab), but Hollywood's leading men have never looked more taut or well-moisturized. Even better, some of them have openly talked about the required upkeep, the best bits from which we've gathered here. So does Pharrell actually keep a decrepit portrait in his attic or what? Let me get back to you.

1. Drink a lot of Diddy-branded water, have a Diddy-sized medicine cabinet

It is understandably very difficult maintaining a fresh complexion when you, a 45-year-old man, have been out until the wee hours partying with Kate Moss and Lenny Kravitz at the top of the Eiffel Tower, so you must keep (opens in new tab) multiple skincare lines in your bathroom—such as NARS (opens in new tab) and Natura Bissē (opens in new tab)—probably so your face doesn't build up resistance to the ingredients. Oh, and don't forget a big bottle of Aqua Hydrate (opens in new tab) before bed!

2. Go overboard with the dairy products and the heliophobia 

He might have been more than half-joking when he said (opens in new tab) he slathers Greek yogurt all over his face, but hey—acid = brightening, especially when you stay out of the sun, which the 51-year-old actor has also said (opens in new tab) he does.

3. Only wash with cold water because that's what Naomi Campbell does

Pharrell has confirmed he is not, in fact, a vampire, so we'll have to take his word that that 42-year-old skin (!!!) is 1) all his own and 2) the product of a careful cleansing regimen with Glytone Self-Foaming Cleanser (opens in new tab) and cold water only (opens in new tab).

4. Remember: The tingle means it's working

Mario Lopez's face looks like it wouldn't squish if you poked it, so he must be doing something right. The 41-year-old has gone on the record (opens in new tab) touting Ole Henriksen Aloe Vera Deep Cleanser (opens in new tab), which he says (opens in new tab) "feels tingly and tightens your skin." Ah.

5. Steal from Victoria Beckham, sleep a lot 

If only we could all do both, right? David Beckham, 40, is apparently a fan (opens in new tab) of his wife's Dr. Lancer products, particularly the sunscreen (opens in new tab), and post-match naps.

6. Stuff your pockets with products

Like any good Boy Scout, Rob Lowe, 51, is always prepared to fight any under-eye crepe-iness. He told GQ (opens in new tab) he keeps the serum from his own skincare line Profile4Men on him at all times because "it's sort of like your secret weapon: you wake up, you hit your eye. You get on the train and commute in; right before you go in the office you hit it again. You're going out to lunch and want to get that little pop, you've been working a long half of a day, hit it again. And the same when you go home for dinner at night." Noted.

7. Make friends with your dermatologist 

According to the Hollywood Reporter (opens in new tab), Cruise, 53, pals around with Dr. Ivo Pitanguy, a plastic surgeon who owns both a private island and a skincare line that charges $300 for 1.7 ounces of miracle cream. I like to think it's mostly Pitanguy's companionship and sound advice that ward off sagging, though.
