You have beautiful skin, please share your regimen with us (morning and night)
I cleanse and tone twice a day and I never leave home without a sunscreen. I use a night cream every alternate night
As an actor, you have to wear make-up for long hours, endure strong lights day in and day out, how do you protect your skin when you are shooting?
There is not much we can do about the long hours with make up on, strong lights etc. I make sure to cleanse my skin thoroughly
At shoots, do you wear your own brand of make-up?
I always use my own brands and products and I never share products either

Mac strobe lotion
How do you deal with the occasional break-out?
Regular cleanups and weekly skin polishing
When it comes to skin care and make-up products are you an impulsive shopper or do you research before you buy and try?
I am never impulsive about anything I have to use on my face. I always ask for a sampler first
How do you pamper your skin? (Spa treatments, masks)
Absolutely nothing. I feel that those are the things that actually ruin your skin. I just rub ice on my face once a day
