The best part of waking up? Breakfast for your face! While oatmeal has plenty of heart-health benefits, Karolina Kurkova uses it as a morning face mask for glowing skin.
“Who would have thought that one of your favorite breakfast items can be also your beauty trick?” a bathrobe-clad Kurkova asked during an Amazon Style Code Live interview on Wednesday, June 8. The segment featured a clip of a bathrobe-clad Kurkova using a bit of honey to make a paste and slathering it over her face while prepping for the 2016 Met Gala in New York City.
“It’s great for making your skin nice and luminous and soft, and gives it a nice glow and moisture,” the model, who wore a Marchesa gown with LED lights to the gala, explained. “It’s messy and not always pretty, but it does the trick.”
And her beauty solutions don’t stop at the pantry. Kurkova, who shares sons Tobin and Noah with husband Archie Drury, also explained how she skips the salon and uses lemons to lighten her blonde locks.
“You know how sometimes in the summer you are traveling, you don’t always have time to get your color done,” she continued. “So … you use lemon. You squeeze it into your hair. Then you go in the sun. If you are in the ocean, let a little bit of that salt in. But be careful! Once it’s on your skin, wash your hands really well because it will stain your skin.”
