More Love from Dita Von Teese!
Dubbed the “Queen of Burlesque,” Dita Von Teese is known the world over for her awe-inspiring burlesque performances. With classic Old Hollywood features, Dita is immediately recognizable for her signature red lip, razor-sharp cat eye and porcelain skin. It comes as no surprise that RuPaul has called her “the last word in glamour.” We’re delighted that Dita uses Eminence Organics to keep her skin looking its very best on and off stage.
Dita Von Teese’s Skin Care Secrets
1. Eminence Organics Facials
Before her sold-out performance in Vancouver, Dita visited the Eminence Organics offices to receive a personalized facial. To give Dita's skin a flawless finish, our company President Boldijarre Koronczay used some of her favorite Eminence products, including Apricot Calendula Nourishing Cream. Dita swears by this award-winning moisturizer which is made from Biodynamic® ingredients like apricot, echinacea and aloe. She looked stunning throughout her performance, and shared her love for Eminence in a backstage post (left) on her Instagram story.
2. Follow Basic Beauty Rules
In her skin care routine, Dita follows a few tried and true beauty rules. She tells Cosmopolitan: “I never go to bed without washing my face, I always wear sunscreen; I wear a hat whenever I'm out in the sun a lot. I don't smoke cigarettes, I drink water, and I eat well.”
Looking fabulous at 44, Dita stresses the importance of a good facial moisturizer. In her best-selling book, “Your Beauty Mark: The Ultimate Guide To Eccentric Glamour,” she reveals that ultra-rich Linden Calendula Treatment is one of her favorite products to soothe her dry, sensitive skin. She says: “The Linden Calendula Treatment Cream gives my dry and sensitive skin the moisture it craves, and it gives my senses the experience of pure luxury and indulgence that I love. I can’t live without this cream in my life!”
3. Use Natural Skin Care
Cosmopolitan caught up with Dita backstage of John Paul Gaultier’s Spring / Summer 2014 Haute Couture Show to get the scoop on how she preps her skin for the stage. The burlesque beauty detailed the steps in her skin care routine: “First, cleanse. I’m really into natural skin care now and I’ve been using a lot of Eminence products. I’ve tried (and loved!) many fancy, expensive creams and serums, but I’m getting great results from the natural Eminence line. It makes me feel good to be using fewer (possibly toxic) products!” One of her favorite cleansers is Stone Crop Gel Wash. She tells Vogue: “It has such an interesting, slick texture and it’s all-natural, so you can use it on your eyes and everything.”
4. Keep It Simple
Believe it or not, Dita doesn’t have a glam squad at the ready 24/7. In another Vogue interview, she says: “I rarely spend more than 20 minutes on beauty when I’m not going onstage or on a red carpet. My look seems high-maintenance, and maybe it is for some people, but it’s been my everyday routine for over 20 years, so I can do it quickly and easily—which is why I rarely like a glam squad.”
As the Guest Editor of Lifestyle Mirror, Dita revealed her favorite products to deliver “a lot of glamour with only a little effort.” At the top of her list was Eminence Organics Coconut Age Corrective Moisturizer, which she calls the perfect base for daytime. Infused with coconut, shea butter and grape seed oil, this award-winning moisturizer firms and tightens skin for a smooth, lifted appearance.
