She credits both omega-3 fatty acids and coconut oil for her smooth and healthy complexion. "For me, glowing skin comes from the inside. I start to get sallow if I’m not eating well. I take fish oil supplements. And I love coconut oil. I apply it to my face. That’s my go-to. I also drink a lot of water. I always keep a bottle with me and kind of force myself to drink. My skin just looks better when I’m hydrated,” she told Shape.

She actually swears by avocado oil. "Avocado oil is a big thing for me,” she told Harper’s Baazar. "I discovered it last year and at first I was using it just on my body, but then I realized it works on my face, and my hair too, for that matter! It’s a one-stop shop. Especially in the wintertime, when my skin is drier, it really seeps in and leaves it nice and lush.”
