  • Zoe Saldana recently shared all the beauty products she always has on hand.

  • She loves using the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask to keep her lips moisturized and feeling soft.

  • “My lips are always chapped, so right now I’m using a really good lip balm.”


Zoe Saldana is the epitome of effortless beauty—her skin always seems to glow whether she’s gracing the red carpet for awards season or touting her various films (Avatar, Star Trek, and The Avengers are just a few of our favs). The 43-year-old always looks put together. One reason (besides genetics) she never appears anything other than flawless? She makes sure to keep her favorite beauty products on hand, always.

In a recent video interview with Vogue India, Saldana revealed her love of the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask. “My lips are always chapped,” Saldana said, “so right now I’m using a really good lip balm.” She then went on to apply some of the product onto her lips with her index finger.

The award-winning lip mask is formulated with a unique blend of nourishing ingredients, including vitamin C (to brighten), antioxidants (to soothe), hyaluronic acid (locks in moisture), and fruit extracts (to nourish). The mask is designed to work as a leave-on overnight treatment to hydrate and soothe the lips while you sleep, but many customers (like Saldana) enjoy using it during the day as well.

“Hyaluronic acid is commonly used as an ingredient in moisturizers because of its hydration benefits, and can even help plump the skin to improve the appearance of fine lines,” said Joshua Zeichner, M.D., director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, in a previous interview for Prevention.

The formula also features a unique proprietary moisture wrap technology that forms a protective film over the lips, which helps lock in moisture and active ingredients, according to the brand. It also comes in several different shades and scents (the berry original is Saldana’s go-to).

The 43-year-old also joins a long list of celebrities who love using the mask. From Brooke Shields to Gemma Chan to Sharon Stone, the stars can’t get enough of this miracle lip product.

And if that’s not enough to sway you, let the Amazon product reviews show you just how amazing this moisturizing balm is. With a 4.7-star rating and over 4,300 rave reviews, customers are also enjoying all the benefits of the lip mask.

“For years I’ve suffered from severely chapped lips no matter the season. Immediately after putting this product on, I knew my search was over. And by day two, I knew I would be a customer for life. My lips stay moist from sun up to sundown, and it works perfectly as a base for lipsticks. I highly recommend this product for soft, chap-free lips,” wrote one satisfied Amazon customer.

“I FINALLY found a winner for my dry lips! My lips tend to stay dry no matter how hydrated I am especially when it’s cold and this product works great,” added another reviewer. “I’m a chapstick addict and have tried so many different lip products and hands down, this is THE BEST stuff! I use it all the time, day and night.”
