What I Do: Carrie Preston's Moisturizing Must-Haves
"Sometimes, a girl's gotta treat herself. That's exactly how I feel when it comes to my skin. Here are the splurge-worthy products I use to get a soft, silky skin that lasts."
Carrie Preston, Actress on True Blood
Carrie's beauty stats: 43; medium-length processed/colored hair; bluish-green eyes.
Carrie's beauty obsessions: "I use sunscreen and eat well but I'm not a freak about food. It's all about portion control. I exercise as much as I can; lately, my favorite forms are hiking and Pilates.
"I have very sensitive skin. It's always hard to find moisturizers that don't clog my pores, so when I find a good one, I stick with it. Here are the products I use to keep my skin looking youthful and hydrated."
La Mer Moisturizing Cream
"When you're an actor, your skin is your meal ticket. To keep mine in check, I splurge on La Mer Moisturizing Cream and apply at night. I'm not one of those people who lathers tons of creams on, and this one repairs my skin overnight without leaving buildup behind.
"Growing up in Georgia gave me a lot of sun exposure, and because of this I also wear sunscreen every day. I've found that Jan Marini Antioxidant Daily Face Protectant with SPF 30 goes on super-smooth, acts as a great primer, and smells nice too!"
