The Rhode Beauty founder shared her nighttime beauty routine on YouTube: “Something I legitimately cannot go to bed without doing is lip balm. I hate chapped lips. I hate when they feel dry. It’s truly one of my biggest pet peeves. My go-to is Aquaphor — I think it’s the best lip balm.”

“I also love Aquaphor,” the Oscar winner told Allure in 2013. “It costs nothing and it’s amazing for dry skin, which I have. I put it on my face and it’s very, very good. I don’t wear makeup when I’m not working, so I get my eyelashes and eyebrows tinted.”

The Charlie’s Angels actress told New York Magazine’s The Strategist that Aquaphor is one of the items she can’t live without. “I call it Aqua-for-everything,” she said. “You can put some on your face during the winter or on your chapped lips at any time. For glam, we use it in the makeup bag to help moisturize.”
