Talking to Glamour, the star mentioned how much she loved make-up as a child. She also recalled how she used a lot of foundation and lipstick. But one important step was to clean one's face every night. Salma said -
You can use a little bit of oatmeal and then some water or almond milk, and a little bit of honey. You let it soak, and it’s a great cleanser that makes your skin very soft. “I’ll use the chamomile cleanser from Nuance. Then I splash with cold water.
