The lovely Christine Chiu of Netflix’s Bling Empire recently shared all her beauty secrets with The Cut, and her incredibly enticing descriptions of how her favorite products work and why she loves them is pure perfect-skin poetry.
“There’s no better over-the-counter beauty product than U Beauty’s Resurfacing Compound. With antioxidants, vitamins C and E, peptides, retinol, hyaluronic acids, and AHAs, the Resurfacing Compound can nearly put Dr. Chiu [Chiu is married to Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Gabriel Chiu] out of business … or at least prolong that visit to the plastic surgeons. Your skin gets an instantaneous lift and tightening following application—I would say one-quarter of the way through the product container, I was obsessed and started seeing the tightness and glow. I also love that it never feels heavy and actually feels like an extremely thin Saran Wrap pulling your face back.”
Also on Chiu’s list (she told The Cut she’ll “try anything once” but does lean on her husband to vet out everything first): Botox Cosmetic, Dysport, fillers, medical facials, Skin De-Stress Calming CBD Cleanser ($15), SkinMedica Instant Bright Eye Masks ($48) and the brand’s HA5 Smooth & Plump Lip System ($68), La Mer The Tonic ($95), SkinCeutical’s Phloretin CF ($166) and Biocellulose Restorative Masks ($120), SkinBetter Science Instant Effect Eye Gel ($95) and the brand’s InterFuse Treatment Cream ($125), as well as its sunbetter Tone Smart SPF 68 Sunscreen Compact ($65), Tom Ford Hyaluronic Energizing Mist ($50), SK-II Pitera Facial Treatment Masks ($139), and Dermaflash ($199), which she pegged as the “only at-home device she uses.”
