Between filming And Just Like That, designing shoes, and taking care of her family, Sarah Jessica Parker is one busy boss lady. How could a single person juggle all of these responsibilities and still have glowing skin?

We got to the bottom of this conundrum by discovering SJP’s tried-and-true, everlasting beauty product. And when we use the word, everlasting, we mean it. SJP spoke with Today and revealed her favorite skincare product is one she’s been relying on for a long, long time. 

“It’s the only moisturizer I’ve used forever,” she said. “It’s just La Roche-Posay fluid. That’s it. It’s amazing. It’s very thin, so you can use it to touch yourself up. It’s great.”

Like us, SJP loves the French, no B.S. skincare brand that has made its way into all of the major drugstores. The actress can’t live without the brand’s Toleriane Fluide Oil-Free Moisturizer, in particular. 

If you’re in the market for a new, top-quality moisturizer that also has SJP’s stamp of approval, scoop up a bottle of La Roche-Posay’s moisturizer on sale for 20 percent off with the promo code EXCLUSIVE20. And keep reading for how this lightweight goop has found a permanent home in the actress’ beauty routine.

This moisturizer is compatible with normal, combination, oily, and even sensitive skin, according to the brand. That’s because the formula is free of oil, fragrance, preservatives, and parabens. It’s also non-comedogenic (won’t clog your pores), light, and best of all, mattifying. For the people in the back with oily skin, that is one huge bonus.

But regardless of your skin type, this moisturizer delivers deep hydration for up to 48 hours and restores the skin’s moisture barrier. Hydrating glycerin, multifunctional niacinamide, and antioxidant-rich La Roche-Posay Thermal Water allow the formula to do its job and do it well.

Essentially, this moisturizer leaves out all of the bad ingredients and incorporates all of the good ones so that you’re left with hydrated, replenished, soothed skin. And SJP isn’t the only one who has such positive things to say about La Roche-Posay’s effective cream.  

“This is the only moisturizer I have found that doesn’t have pore-clogging ingredients (and I have researched MANY!),” says one shopper who awarded the product a perfect five-star rating. “It’s not a heavy moisturizer. It sinks into the skin without interfering with makeup application.”

Another one shared similar sentiments, saying “Best moisturizer I have ever used. Gives your skin a good amount of moisture, without leaving any sort of shiny film. I apply this to dry skin after using their sensitive face wash. The biggest selling point is the ingredient list. Nothing in this irritates my skin. Very safe ingredients. Hope it never changes.”

They’re dead on in that there are only 10 ingredients in this moisturizer, and they’re all extremely skin-loving. Get your skin on the same level as SJP’s by shopping La Roche-Posay’s Toleriane Fluide Oil-Free Moisturizer while it’s currently on sale. Who knows, it could turn into your forever moisturizer, too.

Tell me about it, stud! Although it may be part of a costume, Kyle Richards’ black studded sleeve gown that she wears to the Rinna Beauty disco party on this week’s episode of RHOBH is something I could totally see her wearing IRL. The perm-like hair? Maybe not so much (actually I take that back, she totally rocked it the next day).

Celebs, they’re just like us! They struggle with sensitive skin as well, and if we get very lucky, they just might reveal their skincare secrets to the masses. After all, TV stars like Stranger Thing’s Natalia Dyer have access to makeup and skincare experts and the top products in the market, so when Dyer recently shared her multi-step skincare routine for sensitive skin in a Vogue Beauty Secrets video, you better believe we paid attention.

The best part about Dyer’s routine is that it’s not so ~out there~ in that it’s impossible to emulate. She uses a mix of high-end and affordable products, and one of her favorites is currently on sale with the promo code EXCLUSIVE20 on the brands website: the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Double Repair Face Moisturizer. “I love this brand, very gentle,” said Dyer. “Whenever my skin is freaking out I’ll go back to them.”

The moisturizer has a mix of ingredients that restore the skin’s natural moisture barrier, making it effective for those with sensitive skin issues, such as rosacea. It contains prebiotic thermal water which acts as an antioxidant to protect skin from environmental stressors, alongside ceramides that plump any areas with a loss of elasticity. Finally, niacinamide soothes the skin and helps rejuvenate it further, an ingredient which is a personal favorite of mine; it acts as a natural makeup primer and preps the skin to take on foundation effortlessly. Dyer also uses this before she applies her makeup.

Shoppers on Amazon seem to agree with Dyer’s recommendation, referring to this moisturizer as “magically-repairing,” and the “best face care product they have ever used.” The same reviewer added, “My skin has improved so dramatically in the last few weeks of using this that I am tempted to believe it’s a bit magical.” Whether you have sensitive skin or not, this is a great product to keep in your arsenal, as the brand says it works for all skin types and is oil- and fragrance-free.

Another reviewer said, “When I tried it on my face, there was no irritation at all, no burning or stinging feelings,” adding that it’s “not greasy at all, but still moisturizing enough that I can feel it right after one application.”

Other stand-outs from Dyer’s routine include the Alastin Restorative Skin Complex, which Dyer called “really nourishing and hydrating.” The serum is made up of the brand’s signature TriHex Technology, which contains a powerful blend of antioxidants and peptides that support the production of collagen and healthy elastin. This product is a great complement to Dyer’s go-to moisturizer, as both are suitable for sensitive skin.

Of course, Dyer doesn’t skimp on SPF, and called out her favorite as the ISDIN Eryfotona Actinica mineral sunscreen. “This one’s pretty light and easy and goes pretty well under makeup,” she says in the Vogue video.

The SPF is packed with zinc oxide for protection against both UVA and UVB rays, plus skin-boosting enzymes that help repair any damage caused by the sun. Since it also contains vitamin E, it naturally helps boost the skins defense against environmental stressors like pollution.

Bonus: Shoppers say it leaves no “white, ghostly residue […] even when layering.” Another reviewer claims it’s not only good for defense against the sun, but it helped to fade “brown spots” they had on their nose and cheeks.

If you want to take a page out of Dyer’s skincare handbook, these three products are a great place to start.

When I was in high school and a smart-aleck with my friends,
we used to tease my dad because of his hearing loss. Thank goodness he had a
great sense of humor and a knowing sense of self.

My dad was in his 60s and in pretty good shape because he
loved to garden and putter around the house. He wore bifocals for as long as I
could remember, and he always took care to make sure he had the proper eye prescription.
Unfortunately, he ignored his loss of hearing.

Hearing aids were out of the question for my parents’
generation. There was a stigma to wearing aids, because they were too big and not
attractive. Besides, hearing aids were a sign of aging.

Our parents simply asked us to repeat what we said when they
couldn’t hear us. There was no need to confront the loss of hearing.

In her 80s, my mother began to experience hearing loss. My
brother tried to introduce her to a hearing aid. He brought the aids home; she
tried them and returned them to him.

She couldn’t stand the high pitch sounds that were produced
by the aids. And the aids were still clunky and obvious – something my mother just couldn’t ignore.

That was then, and this is now.

Since that time, two things have helped the prospect of
hearing loss for the baby boomer generation:

• there has been
  an educational process that makes it easy for boomers to understand how to
  strengthen their auditory capabilities;
• the development
  of sophisticated auditory technology for augmented hearing.

Hearing Loss Data

The
EAR Foundation and Clarity® studied the occurrence,
cause, and impact of hearing loss on baby boomers – those born between 1946
and 1964. The study indicated that hearing loss is more widespread than early
estimates, affecting 38 million people between the ages of 40 and 59.

Half
of the nearly 76 million boomers in the US are experiencing some degree of
hearing loss – and very few are doing
anything about it. According to the Baby Boomer
Hearing Loss Study, it is estimated that by 2030 nearly 50 million baby
boomers will acquire hearing loss.

The
results of the study indicate that most people experiencing hearing loss are
not seeking help to remedy their hearing issues. Only one of every three surveyed
had gotten their hearing tested. It also revealed that the majority of boomers
who report hearing loss blame it on exposure to noise.

I’m
not a research scientist in the area of hearing loss. However, I can give
plenty of anecdotal examples of friends, dancers, and relatives who are exhibiting
hearing loss.

Most
of the people I interact with are 65 and older, and by the time I meet them (and
many I have known for years), they need to go to Costco and quickly buy the
latest in hearing aid technology.

I’m
speculating, but it seems to me that it takes men longer to recognize the
problem and get help than it does women. Two of my female friends have hearing
aids. One wears her aid with grace, and the other avoids wearing it completely.

Some
men, and even women, don’t wear a hearing aid while music is playing or when they
are playing an instrument, for example, in a jazz band. Most people wear ear
plugs, which, over time, preserves hearing.

Whether
it is music or noise pollution (motorcycles, car exhausts, lawnmowers, jet
planes, rock concerts, traffic), people who have hearing loss wear the tiniest
hearing aid. No one can see it.

But
here is the problem: Those who are too vain or resistant to help themselves
hear better and choose not to augment their hearing are relegated to leaning in on people when a conversation
is taking place, thereby invading another’s space.

Admitting the
Problem

Admitting a problem does not necessarily translate to finding
a solution. It has been my experience that most of the individuals who tell me
they have difficulty hearing are doing very little to find appropriate care to
alleviate their hearing loss, such as seeing their primary care physician or an
audiologist.

Whether it is because of apprehension – or denial, or vanity – the EAR Foundation’s
data reports that hearing loss is one of the most overlooked issues within the boomer
generation.

Most
baby boomers I know grew up on rock and roll and the concert lifestyle. Think
Woodstock, The Doors, The Beatles. Today, we still have active lifestyles in
retirement, which lends itself to experiencing an increased amount of environmental
noise.

Baby
boomers have encountered more noise pollution than any other generation.
Statistics show that only about 18% of people who have hearing loss relate it
to a medical condition, such as those who fought in the Vietnam War.

Getting Help for
Hearing Loss

I
am in and out of social situations all week with baby boomers my age. (Actually,
they are younger because I am technically three years older than those born in
1946.)

When
I conceived writing this blog for Sixty and Me, I began to do my
research by asking questions of my male friends and fellow dancers. The first
man who protested that he did not have a hearing problem was the man who leaned
in and asked me to repeat all the time. I could have predicted that.

I also
noticed that women my age and younger did not have major hearing problems. They
could handle the background noise and music and have a perfectly normal
conversation.

It
is imperative that baby boomers get help for their hearing loss. The Baby
Boomer Hearing Loss Study revealed that loss of hearing adversely effects
interactions in all areas of life: home, workplace, social situations, speaking
on the phone, or answering questions, often resulting in being misunderstood or
isolated.

Finding a Solution

Normalize
your hearing loss by getting help. Get informed in general about products that
can improve hearing. Don’t let vanity or resistance get in the way of improving
your life.

Hearing
better will alleviate stress and strain on your mind, body, and spirit so you
can get back to your normal routines and maintain balance.

Remember,
hearing loss not only impacts the person who is struggling with the condition,
but it also affects other people’s lives in a negative way.

Those
closest to you shouldn’t have to bear the burden of guiding you through getting
help for hearing loss. This is a condition that should not be ignored. Take
care of your physical health.
