At 45, Tatyana Ali is giving girls a run for their money with her youthful looks and glowing skin. The actress, who rose to fame after starring in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, is known for her demure yet elegant looks, showing us that sometimes simplicity is best. Recently, she posted a video on her social media accounts sharing her skin glow secrets using natural products.
She wrote, "You asked, and I’m sharing! This skincare secret comes straight from my aunties in Trinidad—just oatmeal, turmeric, and honey 🤗, But the REAL magic for glowing skin? Wait till the end of the video to find out (and nope, it’s not these little ones running around everywhere 😅)!"
The video starts with her placing oatmeal and honey in a small bowl and mixing the two ingredients. "You're gonna scrub your face with it and get off all the dead skin," she explained. The next step involves honey and turmeric.
"Step two is honey and turmeric. And this one I learned from my Trini aunties, the Indian side of my family," she said. The mom of two made a paste with honey and turmeric and shared that it also exfoliates your skin.
"So what I do is I put this on, I rub it again after this heavier, coarser buff (referring to the oatmeal), and then I let it sit there for like 10 minutes, and then I wash it off, and my skin glows," she said.
And while she credited using these scrubs for her youthful glow, she also revealed daily habits that play a major role as well. "Drink water, you gotta take care of yourself, whether that's meditation or prayer, be at peace, sleep, and I have anxiety issues, so I know it's hard," she said.
"The truth is we all get wrinkles, we all age, but what makes us look young, it's our joy. When your eyes sparkle, you get lines, but the lines are from smiling, not crying and frowning."
