Actress Hannah Waddingham, known for her role in "Ted Lasso," has become the face of Paula's Choice's new Pro-Collagen Peptide Plumping Intensive Moisturizer. The 52-year-old beauty, often praised for her radiant complexion, shared her skincare routine, which includes a mix of investment products and accessible high-street finds.
Waddingham's makeup artist, Stephen Sollitto, noted that exfoliation and hydration are key to her makeup preparation. He specifically highlighted Paula's Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant, which he uses to unclog pores and control oil, leading to what he describes as "truly clean, glowy skin." This exfoliating toner is also a bestseller on Amazon.
Following exfoliation, Sollitto applies the Pro-Collagen Peptide Plumping Moisturizer for what he calls "24-hour hydration." Other favored products from the Paula's Choice range mentioned include the Peptide Eye Serum and Peptide Gloss Balm.
Beyond Paula's Choice, Waddingham also relies on several more affordable brands. She has expressed her love for Rimmel's Sunshimmer Instant Self Tan in a medium matte finish, a £7 product that provides an immediate glow lasting up to 24 hours. Another staple is Weleda's Skin Food Light, a £9 cream praised for its calming and moisturizing properties, containing ingredients like rosemary, calendula, and chamomile.
Weleda's Skin Food is also a favorite among celebrities such as Bella Hadid, Victoria Beckham, Hailey Bieber, Meghan Markle, and Molly Mae Hague. It functions as a multi-purpose cream suitable for face and body, acting as a moisturizer, salve, overnight treatment, or primer, and is known for imparting a dewy finish.
Waddingham is also a proponent of sun protection, frequently using La Roche-Posay products. She credits the Anthelios UVMune 400 Invisible Fluid SPF50+ for maintaining a youthful appearance, noting its sweat- and waterproof qualities and its compatibility under foundation. She also favors La Roche-Posay's Toleriane Ultra Eyes.
For her makeup, Waddingham uses MAC Eye Kohl Pencil Liner for her signature smoky eye. The £20 pencil is designed for long-wear and can be used precisely on the waterline or smudged for an eyeshadow effect. For her lips, she has been seen using Iconic's Lip Plumping Gloss.
Paula's Choice new Pro-Collagen Peptide Plumping Intensive Moisturizer launched on Thursday, with 52-year-old Hannah Waddingham putting her face to the campaign. The moisturizer is designed for normal to dry skin to help plump, firm, and replenish moisture, while the brand's Peptide Face Moisturizer, also priced at £49, is suited for all skin types, including oilier or combination skin, and aims to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The products are available from Paula's Choice, Space NK, and Amazon.
