Emily JubbIf you have been a follower of the Hollywood legends through the decades, you would be aware of the profound mystery that is Leonardo Dicaprio’s non-ageing skin. We are here to identify the secrets behind maintaining such a smooth and perfected complexion.
To begin with, Leo uses the Enzyme Peel mask (£49.95) and Rose facial spritz (£26.95), both from The Organic Pharmacy. He also applies Chanel Le Gel top coat, and keeps bags at bay with the Ski-11 eye mask. These three simple steps are easy to replicate within your own simple and practical routine.
Without the help of rumoured 25k beauty regime, we are ready to probe into the details behind finding the key of youth that Dicaprio holds onto so tightly. We understand he has a tight team following his every steps, ready to pounce on any and every imperfection, yet we are here to help you achieve the fresh, Dicaprio glow from the comfort of your own home.
With help of the experts Origins Skincare, we are investing in their latest mens skincare range to try and test their abilities and match that of the Dicaprio finesse. With their four step skincare routine, they guarantee your skin will be as youthful and fresh as that of a Hollywood lothario. The secret to any perfected complexion, is a consistent skincare routine. Cleanse. Tone. Serum. Moisturise. Four simple steps to become engrained in your mind.
It all starts with a clean, blank canvas. Clear those pores and open up your skin with the Origins Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask. Using a warm, moist towel, wipe over your face to open up your pores. Layer on the mask thick and evenly across your skin, the Active Charcoal acts like a magnet to draw out deep-dwelling pore-cloggers. The White China Clay absorbs environmental toxins whilst the Lecithin dissolved impurities. Without all the dirt and grit clogging up your pores, skin is able to breathe again. Allow the mask to dry then wash off with warm water and rinse well.
Now we have opened the pores and removed any unwanted residue, we now want to close them. Using the Origins Zero Oil Pore Purifying Toner, apply this morning and night after you’ve cleansed your skin. This invigorating, multi-tasking toner formulated with skin-cleaning Saw Palmetto, cooling Mint and pore-minimising Salicylic Acid instantly reduces shine and removes excess oil. This step leaves your skin with a smooth, matte finish.
Now your skin is prepped and refreshed, its time to inject hydration and life back into it. If your skin is feeling a little lackluster and not bouncing back like it used to, find your glow again with the revolutionary renewal serum. The Origins Original Skin Renewal Serum works is 5 ways to rapidly restore radiance. Although this doesn’t sound like the most masculine appeal, it is essential in maintaining healthy and hydrated skin. The main ingredient of Willowherb deletes dullness, the Persian Silk Tree helps the skin rebound and de-stress, whilst the Chestnut Seed Extract refines texture to smooth away roughness. Algae helps reduce oil to help visibly shrink pores. All while minimising pores. All while minimising flaws and blurring imperfections. The result? Skin looks perfected, vibrant and glowing- the Classic Dicaprio look for a plump and youthful complexion.
The final step, is to lock in that moisture. The Origins High Potency Night-A-Mins Oil-Free Resurfacing Cream is the perfect final step in this Dicaprio routine. This overnight oil-free moisturiser doubles as a sleeping peel, putting dullness to rest with Fruit and Plant-derived AHAs from Grapes & Sugar Beets, a time-release resurfacer, plus Vitamins C, E & H, minerals and oil-free hydrators. While soothing essential oils of Neroli, Valerian & Vanilla help lull you to sleep, dry dead layers of skin are sloughed off so you wake up refreshed and ready for the day.
For red carpet ready skin, follow these four easy steps and integrate them into your morning and night time routine. As not everyone can afford to shell out $25,000 for their skincare regime, we settle on four essentials.
