Actress, producer, and overall dream girl, Jessica Chastain was recently announced as the face of one of our favorite clean skincare brands, True Botanicals. Joining an esteemed roster of celebrity devotees from Olivia Wilde to Laura Dern, Chastain has been making the rounds lately, singing the praises of True Botanicals to some of our favorite beauty outlets.
Earlier this month, she walked Harper’s Bazaar through her nighttime routine in their Go to Bed With Me series. Naturally, we were curious to learn which of the True Botanicals products the beauty uses every day, but what really caught our eye was this melatonin and magnesium-packed lotion the actress says she puts on her feet each night…
Inside Jessica Chastain’s Nighttime Routine
Taking off your makeup each night is a non-negotiable for those of us committed to great skin. Even more important? A full night’s sleep. While the first takes a little discipline, the second sometimes feels out of our control. Jessica share a few of her favorite product that meet both needs:
True Botanicals Ginger Turmeric Cleansing Balm | To thoroughly wash the day away, Chastain uses True Botanical’s viral cleansing balm. The balm is beloved by so many as it effectively removes every trace of makeup without stripping the skin. It’s packed with anti-inflammatory ingredients like ginger and turmeric to support your best skin ever.
True Botanicals Phyto-Retinol Sleep Serum | Jessica’s serum of choice? True Botanicals’ retinol offering. Powered by Peptilium® which has been clinically proven to work 2X faster and better than traditional retinol, the ‘phyto-retinol’ is also safe for even most sensitive skin types. If you’ve been looking for a retinol that’ll deliver benefits without the traditional irritation, this is the product to try.
Asutra ‘Dream The Night Away’ Natural Sleep Lotion | Chastain’s True Botanicals picks were no surprise to us – half the women we know in clean beauty swear by TB for a skincare routine that effectively calms breakouts and beyond. But the new-to-us product that surprised us? In the video, Jess reveals her ritual with this sleep-supportive lotion by Asutra. According to Chastain, she slathers this magnesium and melatonin-packed lotion on her feet each night to support a healthy sleep routine.
It turns out that Asutra is co-owned by none other than tennis god, Venus Williams. We did a little digging and found that Williams discovered the brand herself by using this product at a photo shoot. Within a short amount of time, she was so sleepy she could barely finish the day! She soon became devoted to using the lotion at the proper time when she actually needed it — before bed. After connecting with Astura’s founder, Stephanie Morimoto, Venus joined the self-care brand as Chief Brand Officer.
After Jess’ compelling endorsement, we checked our email history, and sure enough the product had been pitched to us in the past, but had gone overlooked! We’ve since tried the lotion just as Jessica recommends and can attest that this is a must-have for anyone looking to support a healthy sleep routine and get to bed when they need to for their schedule! We also think it makes a great product for travel to support sleep in a new time zone.
