Chrissy Teigen Says Plum Oil Is Magical For Skin

Whenever Chrissy Teigen posts a selfie or steps out on a red carpet, we always find ourselves asking this one question: "What is her skincare routine?" Teigen is known for her gorgeous, glowing complexion, and in 2020, she dropped a tutorial on her Instagram story on how she achieves it. 

In her story, the author and entrepreneur highlighted the two products she reaches for every night to refresh her skin. Teigen kicks off her regimen by cleansing her entire face with Eyeko’s Mascara Off Wipes ($9). But, the real star of her skincare routine is the Le Prunier Plum Beauty Oil ($72).

Teigen was introduced to the facial oil by makeup artist Nova Kaplan and claims it’s the secret to her plump, supple, and even skin. "I thought she was giving me a sample of something her friend made, but it turns out it's real and for sale," Teigen said on her Instagram story. "It is 100% pure plum oil made in California and I use it all day. If I'm not wearing makeup, I just put it on and let my face soak it up."

Teigen shared that after she applies the plum oil all over her face she will sometimes apply a face cream afterward to lock in the benefits of the oil. "I wanted to share it because it changed me,” Teigen said. "It’s holy. It is amazing."

If you need more, we’ve broken down the benefits of plum oil and all the reasons you should add it to your skincare routine below.
