• During an interview, when she was asked about her skincare routine, she said,
  

  My skincare routine is fairly basic – I use a lot of virgin coconut oil and aloe vera on my skin, the Himalaya Neem Face Wash, Kiehl’s Vitamin C Concentrate and organic rose water on hot days. I believe in working on my skin and health from the inside, and for this I make a ‘golden paste’ – it’s a mix of fresh turmeric, honey, cardamom, cinnamon and pepper. My son and I have it for all its anti-inflammatory, immunity-boosting benefits. That and a shot of lemon first thing in the morning…pretty much sums it up.”
