As a Hallmark Channel regular and star of Amazon’s trending Kept Woman, sought-after actor Andrew Walker knows the importance of good skin care, yet appreciates keeping it simple. That’s why he put together a team of doctors and chemists to help develop a line of products made for “real life.”
The Routine
Walker says he was disappointed by the skin-care products he was using. “They were either too abrasive or had too many steps, especially after a long day on set. It was important for me to cleanse my skin and get it ready for the next day, but the last thing I wanted to do was spend time on a lengthy routine.” His brand SkinMason is simple and, most importantly, effective. “It has transformed my routine. My skin has never looked or felt better.”
Erase the Day
“After a travel day or long hours on set, my skin needs a reset,” says Walker. “That’s where the SkinMason Cleansing Pads have been a game changer. Just a few swipes, and you can literally see the dirt, sweat and grime wipe away. It’s like erasing the day, and it feels great.” The science-backed formula blends a proprietary peptide with a tri-acid complex. “Not only do the Cleansing Pads cleanse thoroughly and prevent blemishes, but they also nourish my skin in the process. It’s truly effective skin care, simplified.”
Essential Oils
Walker is a fan of Ambre Blends fragrances, which are made from all-natural, plant-based ingredients. “The scents are subtle, enhancing my natural fragrance for a unique and personal aroma. Their eco-conscious practices and packaging align with my values of environmental responsibility. The best part is that the products also offer holistic benefits. The essential oils promote relaxation and confidence.”
Feel Good
“I use Native deodorant because it’s made with natural, aluminum-free ingredients, which are better for your skin and overall health. Its gentle formula is effective at controlling odor while being free of harmful chemicals like parabens and phthalates. Native offers a variety of clean, fresh scents. Plus, it’s a cruelty-free and eco-conscious brand. I feel good about using it daily.”
Hold Up
TIGI Bed Head hair products are in Walker’s regular rotation. “Their formulas are designed to provide strong hold, definition and texture, which work perfectly for my hair type and preferred style.” TIGI’s products also protect against humidity and heat, which he says keeps his hair looking fresh and controlled. “I’d rather not have to reapply my hair products throughout the day, which I never have to do with TIGI.”
