Anne Hathaway Skincare Routine and Tips
What does the Anne Hathaway skincare routine comprise of, you ask? Whether she’s on the red carpet or sharing a selfie on Instagram, the actress always looks fresh-faced and radiant. Clearly, she knows a thing or two about skincare. She’s been named the Global Ambassador for Shiseido, after all.
What skincare products does Anne Hathaway use? Ahead, all Anne Hathaway’s skincare secrets for achieving a youthful, glistening complexion.
Anne Hathaway Skincare Routine
According to Anne Hathaway’s facialist, Su-Man, the Oscar winner is “incredibly disciplined when it comes to her skin.” Here’s exactly what Anne Hathaway uses to maintain her Hollywood glow.
Step 1: Facial Massage With Cleanser
Cleansing is the first step in Anne Hathaway’s skincare routine. To remove impurities while rejuvenating her complexion, she combines cleansing with facial massaging.
There are two benefits to this: first, the very act of massaging your skin boosts blood circulation to give skin a healthy glow and remove toxins to detoxify and de-puff skin. Second, spending a couple of minutes massaging in your cleanser ensures it reaches your pores for a purifying cleanse.
Cleansing should always be the first step in your skincare routine as it helps remove dirt, grime, and dead skin, allowing other products to penetrate deeper. It also keeps pores unclogged to prevent blemishes.
If you've got dry or sensitive skin, we recommend cleansing with Truly's Glass Skin Cleansing Balm to gently melt away makeup and impurities.
Step 2: Uplifting Eye Mask
Between extensive travel and a busy schedule, Anne Hathaway reverses tired eyes with an uplifting eye mask. Her go-to formula uses retinol to visibly firm and awaken the under eyes. Retinol boosts collagen and elasticity while increasing cell turnover to reveal fresh, firm, and youthful skin. That is why you will find it in a range of anti-aging products. It’s a powerhouse ingredient for restoring young, glowing skin.
Because Anne has really sensitive skin, she chooses skincare products that soothe and nourish her skin.
Step 3: Retinol Serum
The next step in the Anne Hathaway skincare routine is retinol serum. Her favorite formula contains a firming, tightening, and radiance-boosting blend of retinol, watercress extract, and rosewater.
Since Anne has sensitive skin, you might be wondering how her skin copes with all that retinol. Well, it all comes down to using products enriched with soothing, hydrating ingredients that counteract retinol’s irritating effects. And using it in small amounts. This way, you get to enjoy all of retinol’s benefits without experience unpleasant irritation.
To combat signs of aging, try Truly's Vegan Collagen Booster Facial Serum which contains a powerhouse blend of retinol, vitamin C, and plant collagen.

Step 4: Wrinkle Treatment
At 41 years old, Anne Hathaway knows the secret to maintaining her youthful, luminous skin is good products and consistency. Every night, she applies a wrinkle treatment to target creases and dark spots.
It’s formulated with retinol for skin renewal, along with rosewater and odoriko botanical extract which work in tandem to hydrate, balance, and further support skin renewal.
Give your skin a retinol boost with Truly's Vegan Collagen Booster Jelly Face Mask which smooths out fine lines and firms sagging skin.
Step 5: Firming Cream With SPF 30
To keep her skin plump and smooth during the day, the actress turns to a firming face cream infused with retinol, shea butter, and rosewater to sculpt her skin. It also contains SPF 30 to protect against harmful UV rays which can cause premature aging and skin cancer.
“Sunscreen is also important—I love spending time outdoors but try to avoid any excessive exposure to the sun,” Anne Hathaway told PopSpoken.
With her delicate, porcelain skin, the Oscar winner knows wearing sunscreen every day is essential for keeping skin healthy and flawless. It helps prevent fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation—which can all occur with sun exposure.

Freeze Tools
When celebrity esthetician Georgia Louise recommended freeze tools to Anne Hathaway, the actress couldn’t get enough.
“Anne Hathaway sent me texts saying, ‘You’ve just changed my whole life.’ Obviously, she’s pregnant and she says that is the first thing she goes to now,” Louise told E! News. “They are so easy to use, you pop them in the freezer or refrigerator and massage your skin.”
Freeze tools are great for stimulating circulation in the skin and removing impurities to detoxify and eliminate puffiness while refining pores for a clear, fresh complexion. No wonder Anne’s obsessed!
Stress-Relief Ritual
Stress can wreak havoc on your skin. When you’re stressed, the body produces more cortisol which can stimulate excess oil production. This, in turn, can lead to breakouts.
Like the rest of us, Anne Hathaway deals with stress but she turns to a smart stress-relief ritual to help keep her calm. The process involves setting a timer for twelve minutes and using that time to write all your worries down on paper.
“You spew it all out, you do not read it,” she told Prevention. “The timer goes off, you tear it out of the book, and you light it on fire,” she added. “Literally on fire. All of this energy, this angst, this rage—everything is smoke.”
Exfoliate and Hydrate
According to Anne Hathaway’s facialist, Su-Man, one of the best ways to keep your skin bright and youthful is by combining exfoliation with hydration.
“To brighten and renew skin, use an exfoliator to remove dead skin cells, and apply toner and serum before sealing them in with a hydrating sheet mask,” Su-Man told Net–A-Porter. “Then, wait 15 minutes before removing the mask and applying eye cream and moisturizer,” she added.
Exfoliation removes dead skin cells on the surface of the skin to reveal glowing skin while enabling other skincare products to absorb better into the skin—and ultimately, work their best.
Hydration
A must-have beauty item for Anne Hathaway is water. And she drinks plenty of it to keep her skin glowing.
“I mean you can’t go wrong with water,” she told Vogue. “If you have it and it’s clean you’re very, very lucky so hydrate.”
