If someone’s got good, clean skin, with not too much make-up on, and good, clean hair that’s bouncy, and the nails are clean and not overly done, then you can put anything on her and she’s going to look good.
Eating apples is good on so many levels. There’s fiber in the skin that’s really good for you. It helps with digestion and helps you absorb all the nutrients of everything you’ve eaten that day. Apples are a really good thing.
I have as much pink as you can have. I love to see other women in pink. It’s good for every shade of skin and hair.
The industry is quite chauvinistic generally. Expectations of women, girls, what they should look like, how they should be, what they should say, what they should wear, how their hair should be, what colour their skin should be.
In terms of jumping into a character’s skin, I try to immerse myself in the role as much as possible to bring me closer to them. All I do is what’s required to achieve what I want to achieve.
I distinguish sentiment from sentimentality. Sentimentality makes your skin crawl. It’s like too much sugar. But, sentiment is a great feeling.
I have campaigned all over the state of South Carolina. It is the friendliest state in the country. And truly here people judge you by the content of your character not the color of your skin.
I come from an interracial family: My father is from Nigeria, and so he is African-American, and my mother is American and white, so I rarely see skin color. It’s never an issue for me.
My skin is really sensitive, so I don’t use too much on it. I’m actually really bad at washing my face. I get so lazy at night so I usually buy the Neutrogena wipes and it gets all the makeup off and its easy and that’s the way to go. I hate washing my face, so I always use the wipes.
I have a few friends that have inspired me since I was a young kid. When I watch old films or modern movies – particularly ‘Gladiator,’ ‘New Jack City’ and ‘The Skin I Live In’ – I’ll also get ideas.

I’m a big believer in that if you focus on good skin care, you really won’t need a lot of makeup.
I’ve noticed that maybe my skin isn’t as soft as it used to be when I was a younger. It’s just not there anymore. I travel so much, and my skin gets so dry.
I’ve got thick skin.
I’ve always thrown myself into different kinds of experiences, sometimes into really bad things. But, you grow up. You become more of a woman and you know yourself. I think knowing yourself is a wonderful thing especially when you’re in your 40s and you’re kind of in your skin. Life is not so confusing anymore.
I protect my skin with sunscreen and am religious about keeping my face moisturized and properly protected all day, so I also use a face lotion with SPF 30.
For skincare, I’m a Clean and Clear girl. Especially with the humidity in Georgia, Clean and Clear has been pretty good to me with all of the makeup we have to wear. My skin really responds to that product. I’m also a big fan of Kiehl’s under-eye avocado cream.
Take good care of your skin and hydrate. If you have good skin, everything else will fall into place.
I do not believe that the colour of one’s skin determines whether you are disadvantaged.
A great fig should look like it’s just about to burst its skin. When squeezed lightly it should give a little and not spring back. It must be almost unctuously sweet, soft and wet.
I might have to stumble a little bit more in public than others, but that’s fine, I don’t mind, I’ve developed a thick skin.
I think what makes someone pretty amazing is being comfortable in your own skin.
We’re doing Circle of Snakes, we open up with Skin Carver and we are throwing in Skull Forest later on.
Vampires are so old that they don’t need to impress anyone anymore. They’re comfortable in their own skin. It’s this enigmatic strength that’s very romantic and old-fashioned. I think it goes back to something of a Victorian attitude of finding a strong man who’s going to look after his woman.
The hardened mass of liquid stones had much stronger qualities than those which had simply torn. The skin remained a recognisable part of the molten stone.
After all, film is so porous, and to my mind, so oddly occult, that I think that film itself absorbs odd energies like a living skin.
Skin cancer became personal to my family when my father was diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma.
I’m lucky with my skin – it doesn’t require a lot of attention, so I keep things simple. And I drink a lot of water.
Could people be trained to be less gullible? Or are you as stuck with gullibility as you are with skin colour?
I’m comfortable in my own skin, no matter how far it’s stretched. Ha ha.
I feel good in my own skin because I’ve accepted the fact that I’m me. That’s what’s so great about being alive and being on this planet: Everybody’s different.
Beauty is only skin deep. I think what’s really important is finding a balance of mind, body and spirit.
It is not our sexual preferences, the color of our skin, the language we speak, nor the religion we practice that creates friction, hatred and wars amongst in society. It is our words and the words of our leaders that can create that disparity.
I am the daughter of a Chicana and anglo. I think most days I am an embarrassment to both groups. I sometimes hate the white in me so viciously that I long to forget the commitment my skin has imposed upon my life.
Well-being is how I feel in my skin, not about how other people are looking at me and what they see… it’s what I feel like.
My skin is so hypersensitive that I have to cleanse it with oils and then back it up with even more oil. I really am just putting on oil all the time.
Being confident in your own skin is very sexy. I think when you have fun and are yourself that is sexy too.
When it’s colder, your skin needs more attention.
I love making a body scrub with ground-up coffee and coconut oil. It’s really good for circulation, and it smells delicious. I also do a DIY Greek-yogurt-and-honey mask that softens your skin and helps reduce puffy eyes.
Basting is evil. Basting does nothing for the meat. Why? Skin. Skin is designed to keep stuff out of the bird, so basting just lets heat out of the oven. That means the turkey will take longer to cook… so don’t touch that door!
I wanted to inspire people not to work under a bamboo ceiling. Whatever you are – yellow, black, white, brown – you don’t have to allow your skin to define who you are or how you operate your business. There’s not one face to anything.
My spray-tan woman is amazing. She comes to my house at 10 o’clock the night before a shoot. The results are so brown, flawless, and natural. It’s just weird because my natural skin color is very white, almost whitish yellow.
Traveling is the worst for skin, and it shows instantly. Once you’re working non-stop, you can instantly see it.
I used to have really bad skin, and when I was younger, I had a lazy eye. I had to wear a patch and pink-rimmed glasses.
In levying taxes and in shearing sheep it is well to stop when you get down to the skin.
Not only is fur cruel, it’s also totally gross. I mean, who wants to wear the skin of an abused animal? Not me!
You know Latin people? African-American people? How our skin ages more slowly? Even though we’re dramatic, we move our faces, we eat higher-fat foods, we’re the ones with fewer wrinkles – it makes you wonder.
Skin care is so important, and I’m the craziest person about it.
I’m looking for the best person irregardless of political party, of race or religion, or color of their skin. Those things don’t matter to me. I want someone who’s qualified, who has a qualification to character and the integrity to do the things that have to be done to save this world.
One of my style commandments is to always have beautifully radiant skin.
I have a thick skin, which comes from being a not-really-skinny, dark-skinned Indian woman. I haven’t fit in every place, and so I’m kind of used to resistance.
Since I was 9 years old, I’ve been in the entertainment business, and everyone is always telling me what – and what not – to do… you just get a tough skin and have to not care about what people think, or you will not end up in a good place.
The term ‘celebrity’ makes my skin crawl.
You know, I think plastic surgery is the way you keep your skin.
This is Romney’s biggest political weakness. His policy flip-flops and the general sense that he’s not comfortable in his own skin leads voters, including many supporters, wondering about his core values.
Pride is a time to celebrate what makes us unique and the more we let young people know that those things that make us different are actually our greatest strengths, the more comfortable we are in our own skin and the more peacefully we’ll sleep at night.
I’ve got a song called ‘Salt Skin’ because when you run in the heat it evaporates and you’ve got salt crystals on your face. I love that, because it means you’ve worked really hard.
