Lauren Graham’s Secret to Ageless Skin Revealed
LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Actress Lauren Graham, 57, is turning heads not just for her acting chops but also for her radiant skin. The star, known for her role in “Gilmore Girls,” recently revealed her go-to beauty product: Homeoplasmine, a French pharmaceutical balm that has become a cult favorite among beauty enthusiasts.
In an interview, Graham described Homeoplasmine as one of the things she “can’t live without.” “This is one of those things that, if you’re travelling, is very light,” she said. “You can use it as a face mask, as a lip balm, for flyaways.” The multi-purpose cream, originally designed to treat minor skin irritations, has gained popularity for its hydrating and soothing properties.
Homeoplasmine, created by French pharmaceutical brand Boiron, is formulated with petroleum jelly, lanolin, and plant extracts. These ingredients work together to create a protective barrier on the skin, locking in moisture and preventing further irritation. The balm is gentle enough for use on delicate areas, including around the eyes, and is recommended for a variety of skin issues, from chapped lips to burns and rashes.
On Amazon, Homeoplasmine boasts an impressive 75% five-star rating based on 384 reviews. Shoppers praise its effectiveness, with one reviewer calling it “better than Vaseline.” A nurse’s review highlighted the product’s unique combination of ingredients: “Homeoplasmine has a base of Vaseline which is an occlusive (holds moisture in). The marigold, pokeweed skin, Bryony, and Benzoin all aid in healing and have anti-inflammatory properties. But the secret is Boric Acid. This will help exfoliate dead skin cells while also protecting against some infections.”
Despite its benefits, some shoppers note that the cream’s thick texture may not suit everyone. “Expensive, but worth it,” one reviewer commented, while another mentioned that the texture is similar to Vaseline or Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour Cream.
Graham’s beauty routine also includes a Gua Sha tool, which she uses to enhance her skin’s appearance. The actress, who recently attended the Sundance Film Festival to promote her upcoming film “Twinless,” continues to inspire fans with her timeless style and glowing complexion.
