Victoria Beckham reveals her simple 3-step skincare routine, which includes a handy facial de-bloating trick
Banish puffiness with Victoria Beckham's expert skincare advice
Victoria Beckham's morning skincare routine is so simple, with just three steps - and a handy de-bloating trick - to her radiant glow.
Having worked for years now with skincare experts on her own products, we're always interested to hear what Victoria Beckham uses herself. So when she revealed the details of her morning skincare routine, we were all ears.
And pleasantly surprised to learn that we wouldn't need to spend, well, anything really because her top skincare advice is all about the way you apply products, not necessarily which products you use - though she does have a few beauty favourites our beauty team swear by.

Taking to Instagram post-shower with her hair expertly wrapped up in a towel, Victoria shared the ins-and-outs of her simple three-step skincare routine.
Starting by cleansing her face to remove any oil and product residue from her nighttime routine, Victoria applied her beauty brand's Cell Rejuvenating Power Serum to the skin. The serum is formulated with calming niacinamide to reduce redness and boost radiance – but it's the way you apply it, or any serum of your choice, that brings noticeable benefits to the texture of your skin.
RRP: from £116 for 15ml | Formulated with Augustinus Bader’s clinically-tested and patented TFC8® technology, along with niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and vitamin E, this potent serum works to firm, lift and smooth the skin - helping to target the signs of ageing and deliver a more radiant complexion.
Victoria explained that she 'presses the product into' her skin and 'really, really pushes' with the palms of her hands and her fingertips to massage it in. This, she says, helps to combat any puffiness or 'bloating' on the face and she 'pays special attention to the eye area' when doing this to help minimise the appearance of fine lines.
She also uses this massaging, pressing motion when applying her moisturiser. "I also press this into the skin and then use upward motions to massage the formula in," she said. "It gives the skin such a beautiful radiance."

Victoria has previously revealed that she loves the 'thick and buttery' formula of Weleda's Skin Food. "I go through so many of these… I wish they had bigger ones," she said in an interview with Into the Gloss. It's no surprise why, the formula is ultra-hydrating, featuring a blend of rosemary, sunflower and sweet almond oils to nourish and soothe dry and rough skin.
Victoria Beckham tweeted about this face mist back in 2012, revealing that the affordable product is the secret behind her 'glowing complexion.' Designed to be applied after makeup, it sets your flawless base in place while also tightening pores and giving a stunning dewy glow. But that's not all. It can also be applied as a toner in the morning, protecting dry and sensitive skin from the elements, and also works as a makeup remover that purifies the skin.
Perfect for the winter months, Victoria revealed on the Breaking Beauty Podcast that she uses this multi-use balm by Dr Pawpaw to keep her lips and cuticles hydrated and protected from the elements. It is made from 100% natural ingredients, including papaya, aloe vera and olive oil to gently moisturise and soothe the skin for a rejuvenated look.
As Beckham's go-to serum is on the more premium side, we've also rounded up a few of her budget-friendly beauty buys, like Weleda's Skin Food, to consider.
