Want to know the secret to getting the ageless glow that Cate Blanchett showed off at the Oscars? The Best Actress nominee is finally revealing all–and making it easy for you to get it too. Months ago we told you about her global ambassadorship with prestige Japanese skincare brand SK-II. But now the actress is stepping beyond being the face of the brand to putting out her very own SK-II beauty kit. Cate’s Essential Collection, $250, includes three of the actress’s tried-and-true favorites for keeping her superstar looks: Facial Treatment Essence, Facial Treatment Repair C, and Facial Treatment Mask–all packaged in an elegant red box. “I definitely see and feel a change in my skin’s texture,” the long-time SK-II loyalist says of the products in the collection. But the mask might just be one of her favorite indulgences. “Relaxing in a warm bath with an SK-II Facial Treatment Mask each week leaves my skin feeling rejuvenated,” she says. And if that kind of relaxation leads to looking good as Cate, you can count us in. Grab one of Cate’s kits for yourself starting today at select Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s locations.
