At 62, actress Demi Moore has the youthful skin that women of all ages dream of. With her less-is-more approach to beauty, Demi has a certain “aging-in-reverse” quality and looks better today than ever before. Her well-defined features, plump skin, and perfectly even complexion have everyone questioning her skincare secrets to keep herself looking this good. We tapped three experts—even Demi’s facialist, Terri Lawton—to get all the details on Demi Moore’s exact skin care routine and everything she does.

Her Daily Skin-Care Routine

While we don't know what kind of cosmetic procedures Demi has or hasn't had done, we know that robust skin care is an essential part of the equation to supporting her youthful glow. Rather than following a ten-step routine, Demi told Harper's Bazaar that she sticks to a pared-down approach, which complements her sensitive skin. According to Dr. Lal, sensitive skin, like Demi's, is often reactive, dry, and easily irritated due to skin barrier defects and hormonal changes that occur with aging. "With sensitive skin, it is important to keep to a simple skin-care routine because adding more variables can contribute to further irritation and or even allergic contact dermatitis." Using fragrance-free products is also recommended. "They are inherently drying to the skin and can sting or burn those with sensitive skin."

Even with a less-is-more approach, her skin doesn't lack in the glow department. The actress revealed in a Women's Health interview that she always cleanses her skin, no matter what, and that she likes to wash her face with Retrouvé Luminous Cleansing Elixir and Cosmedix Benefit Clean when she needs a deeper cleanse.

Demi never goes a day without moisturizing her skin, which she learned from her mother. "I recommend moisturizing morning and night for all my patients. For someone like Demi, routine moisturization keeps the skin healthy and luminous," says Dr. Amin. One of Demi's favorite hydrating serums, according to Yahoo Life, is the BioEffect EGF Serum, which Dr. Amin shares is formulated with epidermal growth factors. This signaling protein can support the skin's natural collagen production, improving elasticity and reducing fine lines.

Other skin-care products in her rotation, according to a Harper's Bazaar interview, include Biologique Recherche Creme Dermopurifiante Purifying and Unifying Cream, their La Grande Crème, and the Retrouvé Intensive Replenishing Facial Moisturizer, all of which she applies to her face first and then layers any extra product onto her neck, chest and even breasts. "I like that the La Grande Crème has a proprietary ingredient to help turn off the genes involved in skin aging, which helps the skin maintain its youthful appearance," Dr. Lal adds. Her other anti-aging must-haves are NIOD Copper Amino Isolate Serum 3 1:1, a collagen-boosting serum, and peptide serums to strengthen her skin's barrier and fight age-related dullness.

To reap the benefits of aromatherapy, Demi likes to spritz on ilapothecary Formula No. 27: Beat the Blues Spray which she said “changes the whole mood of everything,” in an interview with Harper's Bazaar.

Her Favorite Facial

Demi is a long-time client of facialist and energy healer Terri Lawton. "I've been working with Demi for more than 20 years," says Lawton, whose facials always encompass looking at the whole of a person. "Working with the concept and energies of the whole yields the fullness and depth of who we are. With Demi, I see her true beauty and its depth," Lawton shares. "But Demi does not dabble in this concept. She lives it 24/7 and is authentic in her body, mind, and spirit."

Each facial Lawton performs on Demi is unique. Lawton says she works with energy systems that need to be awakened and aligned. "This allows for her skin to look beautiful and alive, giving the dimension we are looking for. With my facials, I work with products that best match the skin's energy internally and spiritually."

Her Favorite Facial Tools

Facial sculpting tools can make a world of difference, and one that Demi relies on (after doing her skin care) to achieve her contoured and defined jawline, cheeks and neck is the Georgia Louise Lift + Sculpt Butterfly Stone, a safe-for-all-skin-types gua sha. Dr. Amin says Demi’s fondness for gua sha reflects her commitment to natural skin care. “Gua sha promotes blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, and using one frequently can reduce puffiness and relieve muscle tension, improving facial contours and contributing to a more defined, youthful look," says Dr. Amin. "This practice complements Demi Moore’s exact skin-care routine by providing a non-invasive way to enhance her natural beauty.”

Fancy sculpting tools aside, Demi has also waxed poetic about the simple MakeUp Eraser Makeup Remover Cloth she uses to cleanse her skin and remove makeup at the end of the day. In an interview, she said the cloth saved her skin. A great alternative to traditional makeup-removing wipes, Dr. Lal says, "This is a great eco-friendly cloth that you can use to clean off makeup while also exfoliating the skin. Exfoliated skin takes makeup better and appears less dull."
