Angelina Jolie always carries this one specific face oil with her
The star just gave a fans a look inside her handbag (and skincare routine)


Actress, humanitarian and all-around powerhouse, Angelina Jolie is undeniably chic. That complexion is flawless, and so whatever she uses on her face we'll happily slather on ours, too.
In a new video for British Vogue, the star revealed a slimmed-down version of the bag she always carries with her – because, with six kids, the regular bag is jam-packed with other people's stuff – and it gave us a sneak peek at her skincare routine.
"Sometimes I have that big mom bag, which is not something I can share with everyone because there's too much of everybody else's stuff in it," she explained.
"I usually have snacks, phones, books, T-shirts... everything you can imagine. So this is what's left of mine."

What skincare does Angelina Jolie use?
As a long time ambassador for the brand, it's no surprise that one of the products stashed in her bag was "a face oil from Guerlain" – namely the Abeille Royale Youth Watery Oil.
The hydrating, anti-aging solution plumps and smooth the skin, containing high-end ingredients like Royal Jelly and Ouessant Black Bee Honey.

A lightweight serum-oil-lotion hybrid, this anti-aging liquid promises to instantly increase skin's hydration levels by 92%. We can see why Angelina loves it!
That's not all we know about Angelina Jolie's skincare routine, however. In 2018 her dermatologist Rhonda Rand shared a few details on her regime with Refinery29.
"She’s lucky she has her mom’s beautiful, olive skin. She’s always been such a natural beauty, so she didn’t ever have to do much," Rand told the publication. "It was really just sunscreen, proper cleansing with a mild, gentle cleanser, antioxidants, sometimes glycolic [acids], and natural products."
