Why Christine Taylor Made the Switch to Natural Beauty Products

Landov

A veteran of the Hollywood makeup chair, Christine Taylor is still flaunting flawless skin at 40 thanks to a few simple habits she’s picked up along the way.

“I’m really diligent,” the actress tells PEOPLE about her daily beauty routine, which starts and ends with a good cleanse. “I never miss the morning face wash or the nighttime face wash.” Even after partying into the wee hours at last week’s Met Gala with husband Ben Stiller? Oh yes. “I was so tired, I just thought, ‘Should I go to sleep because I’m getting up in three or four hours anyway?’ I won’t; I have to get [my makeup] off.”

But it goes beyond cleansing; it’s about ingredients, too. After wasting time — and more money than she would like to admit to her husband! — testing out mystery products from natural markets, the mom was thrilled when new body care line Nourish by Sensible Organics tapped her to be their spokesperson. “The fresh fig body butter is my all-time favorite, and I load it on before bed,” she shares. “It’s not so greasy that you think you’re going to get your sheets [dirty]. It saturates but then you wake up with nice smooth hands and feet.”

Julianna Margulies’s Beautiful New Initiative

Julianna Margulies is already a L’Oréal Paris spokesperson, but the actress is expanding her role, signing on as the ambassador for the company’s Women of Worth awards.

The program, inspired by the brand’s iconic “Because You’re Worth It” tagline, is in its seventh year and honors and celebrates inspiring women who are making a difference in their communities.

“I was well aware of the importance of the brand’s Women of Worth program,” Margulies tells PEOPLE. “It wasn’t until this past December at the awards ceremony, however, that I was able to truly see firsthand how this initiative is changing lives.”

Every year the program selects 10 women from across the country who have dedicated their lives to volunteerism and charitable efforts. “These women were so extraordinary and exceptional and most of these women you’d hear their stories and think, that’s when you quit,” the Good Wife actress adds to WWD. “Instead they persevered and not only helped other women but changed their communities, changed medical research, helped other women get jobs.”
