"This is, to me, is like a professional facial in a jar," says Gwyneth of her line's exfoliating mask/scrub combo, which she uses every single night (despite the directions to limit use to a few times per week).
"What I like so much when you get a professional facial is that there are always a couple of kinds of exfoliation. So we developed this Instant Facial to have an acid, tingly exfoliation and then also a manual exfoliation." She also adds a "third exfoliation" by removing the mask using a hot cotton washcloth.
"So at night time, I always love to use Vintner's Daughter. I love it; my skin tends to be on the drier side. But this isn't only an oil-based serum. April, the woman who makes it, says it's full of fantastic things; it really heals skin," says Gwyneth of the cult favorite.
"Some other things I use at night is body oil, or a nice body butter. I really like the one by Beautycounter; they make a really nice body butter that I love," says Gwyneth.
Though she usually uses night cream (especially when in a dry climate such as Los Angeles), she skips that step in her routine, citing East Coast summer humidity. "Tonight we'll keep it really simple," she explains, "We're in the summertime, so I'm just going to end it with some lip balm."
