American skier Lindsey Vonn, 33, who faces cold weather most part of the year, says she has a very basic winter skincare routine. "I wash my face with water in the morning, I use an exfoliating face wash at night, and I wear a night cream. That's pretty much all. I do wear makeup when I ski, I think that actually serves as an extra layer of protection against the dryness, coldness and the sun. I don't do anything that special though, I'm pretty basic," Vonn told US entertainment and lifestyle website HelloGiggles recently.
When asked what's that one makeup product she swears by, she replied, "My eyeliner. It's a longwear eyeliner and I ski with it every day and it never comes off. That's probably the one makeup product I would absolutely swear by." Meanwhile, in her book Strong is the New Beautiful, Vonn has emphasised the importance of the link between good health and self-esteem. Asked about advice she wants to give young girls struggling with body image, she said, "Confidence comes from within. You just have to love yourself for what you are. Everyone is different, and that's what makes you special."
