Kate del Castillo

You may recognize her from countless telenovelas. Now Mexican actress Kate del Castillo is coproducing and starring in her own online Web novela, called Vidas Cruzadas, on Univision.com. Castillo, 37, believes these Mexican soap operas are one of the country's greatest contributions to American culture. She's also joined the L'Oréal Paris girls club as its newest spokesperson. Growing up in Mexico City, "I was like a tomboy, riding bikes and going to parks," Castillo says. She's glammed up her game since; here, her star beauty picks.
