- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
You probably know actress and singer Tessa Thompson, 37, from one of her many major films and TV shows like Westworld, Creed, Men In Black, and her latest film, Sylvie's Love. It's safe to say that the star's schedule is veeery busy–and she does all while maintaining enviable glowing, smooth skin. But how does the actress get her radiant complexion, exactly?
For Tessa, a lot of her skincare is linked to her self-care routine, as she's noted that she uses a variety of facial and body care products as an opportunity to self-soothe and relax. "I love facials and massages, I love to pamper myself, I hate to say," Tessa said in a 2019 interview with PureWow. (And TBH, same.) For this reason, Tessa keeps her beauty routine pretty low key, simple, and calming, which totally fits with the minimalism trend hitting the beauty sphere in 2021.
"If you feel good, you look good," Tessa explains in an InStyle interview, which is why skincare fans want a copy of her routine ASAP. Want to learn a little bit about Tessa's beauty favs yourself? Great, because Women's Health rounded up all of the actress' tips and tricks. Keep reading for the four products and practices Tessa Thompson can't live without, all of which help her unwind and take care of herself on the daily.

She's all about these firming eye gels.
Sometimes we get bags under our eyes, that's life! But for those days when you want your under eyes looking firm and fine line-free, you're going to want to check out Tessa's favorite eye gels. "Skyn's Hydro Cool Firming Eye Gels are great for de-puffing and cooling the eyes," Tessa said. So, whether you're puffy from a night of tears (we've all been there) or just didn't get enough sleep, Tessa's solution is applying a set of these cooling gels.
This face mask is her everything.
Everyone loves a good face mask moment, including Tessa. Her favorite? This one by Eminence Organic Skin Care. "Eminence's Eight Greens Phyto Mask is really spicy and fantastic," Tessa said in a 2017 interview with InStyle. "You feel like you have baby skin after applying it." (Which is pretty much the goal of all face masks, is it not?) This product is a little on the pricier side if you're thinking of snagging one for yourself. But, if you're looking to splurge (because you deserve it!) consider checking it out below.

Bath salts are a must.
As mentioned above, for Tessa, skincare and self-care are pretty intertwined. For smooth, clean skin and a moment of relaxation for her mind and bod, Tessa takes to the bath tub. "I'm a big bath person," Tessa explained. "Adding salts to the tub is a great way to relax." The best part about this beauty tip is that it's pretty accessible. All you need is a bath tub and a big bag of salts (most of which only cost about 20 dollars and last forever) and you're good to go. Step out of the tub and say hello to smoother, softer skin. (And a calm AF mindset.)
Tessa heads to the spa to unwind.
Let's be real: Celebrities love a good spa day, and Tessa is no exception. "With my career, the hours can be really hard and in my profession, a self-care routine is really important," Tessa said in an interview with PureWow. "Rescue Spa is really fantastic. I came to know them when taping Creed and Creed 2 because their first location is in Philadelphia." Now, Tessa makes spa and facial appointments a regular part of her routine. Not only do they put her at ease, but the star can leave the appointment with super glowy skin, too.
