The stunning starlet has a minimal skincare routine.
Tomei, unlike some other stars, doesn't like to use too many products on her skin. For her beauty routine, the actress favors simplicity over complexity.
"I've always kept it really simple," Tomei told Vogue. "Growing up, I was interested in meditation and in grounding myself. That led to how I take care of my body in the best way."
She also noted that her sensitivity to food and skincare ingredients requires her to only put the highest-quality products in her body and on her skin. "I have very sensitive skin, and a sensitive system, so the most pure food-grade ingredients work the best for me," she noted. "I can't have things with chemicals … I get really red, and breakout—my skin doesn't like it."

She finishes her look with bold eyelashes and brows.
For Tomei, her eyelashes are a key addition for her otherwise minimalist look. In her Vogue video that has now surpassed over a million views, she also revealed that she uses the popular Shiseido eyelash curler to get even longer lashes than she already has. Tomei recommends holding it on your lashes for at least four to five seconds. She then follows that up with her favorite mascara by Lancome.
Brows are also important for this star's every day makeup look, though Tomei admits to not treating them too kindly in the '90s. "I do deal with my brows now differently—I've been trying to grow them in since they were super over-plucked in the '90s," she said to Vogue.
