Not everyone in Hollywood owes their nice complexion to a dermatologist. Here are some homespun beauty secrets you can steal.

To complete this How-To you will need:

Sugar
Extra virgin olive oil
Liquid vitamin C
Washcloths
Bag Balm
Honey
Petroleum jelly
Un-petroleum jelly (optional)

Step 1: Exfoliate your skin with a mixture of sugar and extra virgin olive oil. That's how Christie Brinkley stays so youthful; it's like giving yourself a mini microdermabrasion.

Tip: Jessical Biel adds sugar to her regular cleanser when she wants to slough away dead skin.

Step 2: Nourish your skin the way Nicky Hilton does: Massage vitamin C into your face. You can buy it in liquid form in health food stores.

Step 3: Keep your washcloths in the fridge so they're nice and cold when you use them; supermodel Rachel Hunter has said she learned this trick in Japan. It reduces redness and swelling, makes pores appear smaller, gets rid of puffy eyes, and gives your complexion a healthy pink glow.

Step 4: Moisturize like Shania Twain: She finds there's nothing like Bag Balm -- an ointment made to soften a cow's udder for milking -- to make her complexion silky.

Step 5: Smooth your skin with honey: TV host and former model Padma Lakshmi washes her face, then slathers on the sticky stuff in the shower. She swears it acts as a smoothening agent. Catherine Zeta-Jones uses honey for the same reason.

Step 6: Remove your makeup with petroleum jelly; that's how Jennifer Lopez cleans and moisturizes her face at the same time. For an environmentally friendly option, look for plant-based un-petroleum jelly.

Oh dear god... DONT USE PETROLEUM JELLY TO REMOVE YOUR EYE MAKEUP!!! Small traces can and most likely will get in your eye and can build up and eventually cause full or temporary blindness. Baaaad idea.
