SKIN CARE HOLLYWOOD STYLE, STARLETS' 6 BEAUTY SECRETS 
By: Dr. Grace Angel
1. DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL
Alcohol, as we all know, causes dehydration. "Going to bed after a bender without properly treating your face is like tanning in Cozumel for a week without using sunscreen," says one famous starlet known for her work on High School Musical.
If you abuse grandma's cough syrup you will pay the price. Alcohol impairs your skin's ability to produce collagen and will, in the long run, reduce skin elasticity leading to dry, saggy, wrinkled skin.
2. LIMIT YOUR EXPOSURE TO THE SUN
This one is a no-brainer, but if you must hit the beach use a high powered sun-block. "SPF 50 on my face and neck is a must and spf 35 on my body let's me get a nice brownish tan," suggests a former Mickey Mouse club alumna.
3. AVOID COFFEE
Coffee is a natural diuretic and causes the body to void essential liquids and nutrients. According to a Jesus loving country music star and former caffeine addict, "When I drink coffee, I notice that not only are my teeth stained but I think I actually see the crow's feet around my eyes getting more noticeable."
4. EAT PLENTY OF VEGETABLES & CITRUS
Leafy greens like spinach have antioxidants that preserve skin health. Citrus like grapefruit and oranges contain vitamin C that increases collagen production. Boosting collagen production is important because it aids skin firmness and elasticity, which helps fight premature wrinkling and the effects of aging.
5. DRINK 10 GLASSES OF WATER
"I drink at least 10 glasses of water a day, and really notice that my skin looks dull, gray, and vapid when I don't," says a certain hotel-fortune heiress.
6. USE A HIGH QUALITY NIGHT CREAM
This is the most important step you can take to reduce the environment's wear and tear on your face. Choose a night cream that contains proven age-fighting compounds like retinol, vitamin C, and peptides. "My night time moisturizer is my saving grace. I use it religiously and know that it is saving my skin. I am 45 and boys approach me at the gym and clubs thinking I'm 25," says a member of Hollywood royalty who judiciously declined to be named.
