There are two things in life that I really wanted to do: be an actress, and to be in skin care, and I've gotten to do both of them.
Like, I'm hyper-conscious about going to bed on time, and doing my seven-step skin care routine at night.
I switch my products so much, but right now, I'm really into organic skin care. I hope it's here to stay. I like that whole vibe and just being really gentle with your skin and not putting too much products that are harsh.
Sixties models knew nothing about skin care.
When I began my search for the perfect skin care to fight the aging process, I noticed that my sensitive skin was reacting horribly to any product I used.
I was looking for someone to formulate a skin care line I could use.
I love skin care and actually wanted to be an esthetician for many years.
In 'Futurama,' the skin color is no longer yellow. They have actually evolved to cartoon skin tone. But they still have four fingers.
I've stayed away from doing 'urban film' because I just don't relate to the characters. I'm not going to take a role because I happen to have the same skin color.
I personally think my sister is so stunning without makeup. And she doesn't wear that much makeup because she has the best skin color.
Many people who voted for Mr. Obama in the last election did so based on skin color.
If you want to train hard enough to go to the Olympics, then you're going to go out, and you're going to do it. It doesn't matter what skin color or who you are.
As an African-American male born with a couple of strikes against you because of your skin color, I think it's very, very important to have some positive role models around, especially male influences.
Beauty is only skin deep, and the world is full of thin skinned people.
For the past few centuries, we have defined beauty as tall, slender figures, femininity and white skin.
I'm doing a film called 'Black Mass' where I play James Bulger. The reason to play him is obvious to me. He's a fascinating character. It's not like anything I've done before on that level. I'm very excited to slide into that skin for a little bit.
I would love to slip into the skin of a fish and know what it's like to be one. They have senses that I can only dream about. They have a lateral line down their whole body that senses motion, but maybe it does more than that.
I find the less stuff I smear on my skin, the better it looks.
It's so important to get your skin to look even, whether it's with a MAC Cosmetics glow, a Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer, or even just a solid foundation. Start off with a good prep and a good primer.
Over the years, I was never really driven to become a solo artist, but I was curious to find out who I was as an individual creative person. It's taken some time, but now I feel I've truly paid my dues. I guess I'm at a point now where I'm more comfortable in my own skin.
