Thanks to her roles on Wheel of Fortune and The Great Outdoors, Sophie Falkiner is one of the most recogniseable faces in Australia.
Now, the TV presenter has shared exactly what beauty products she uses on that face — and to our great delight, there are plenty of budget-friendly options in the mix.
Speaking to Beauticate, Falkiner says her mantra for a happy complexion is “sunscreen, supplements, sleep, water and exfoliation”.
She never has facials, instead swearing by two inexpensive skincare staples. Prepare to take notes.
“I’ve got very low-maintenance skincare; it’s all relatively cheap … I use this Garnier 3-in-1 [wash, scrub and mask, $11.99] in the shower every second day and people always say I have great texture to my skin. I’ve been using that for years,” the 42-year-old explains.
“I use Cetaphil too — my skin is better with products that don’t have too much in them.”
Watch: A natural, simple facial mask you can whip up with ingredients in your pantry. (Post continues after video.)
We rarely see Falkiner without a lovely golden glow (seriously, her skin is almost as golden as her hair), and the good news is she achieves this with J Bronze Shimmer ($17.95) — but there’s a trick.
“I mix it with a Nivea Everyday Moisturiser ($12.99, on sale for $6.49 at time of writing) so it’s not so strong … it gives me this beautiful, even glow; I literally look like an Oscar. Whenever I go to an event everyone always asks me what I’ve got on,” she explains.
“Day-to-day, I use the J Bronze Tanner because it’s really hydrating and I hate having that dry, scaly skin afterwards.”
The mum of two is also a MAC devotee, listing the brand’s Lipglass in Purr, Pink Lemonade and Lychee Luxe, and lipstick ($36) in Lady Danger as her favourite products.
