Lauren Conrad Counters Crazy Schedule With Simple Skincare

With two bestselling books, a film adaptation in the works and her clothing line to maintain, Lauren Conrad is always happy to simplify any aspect of her life — even if it’s just her skincare routine.

“I used to use a ton of stuff,” she told PEOPLE on Monday while promoting Reese’s Day at the Hershey’s Times Square store in N.Y.C.

“I’ve been going to Kate Somerville for a while now, and through facials and treatments they’ve weaned down my skincare regimen, which is nice. Now at night, I just use a mild face wash and an oil-free moisturizer.”

Her low-maintenance practices will come in handy this fall when she embarks on a double book tour to promote a third novel and her new fashion tome, Lauren Conrad Style.

“The style guide was so much fun to do,” she said. “We start our tour October 5, and I’m really excited.”

But before she hits the road, she’ll be hard at work on a film project. “We are in the process of turning L.A. Candy into a movie. It’s very slow. It takes a while, I’m learning,” said the starlet, who is also updating her collection for Kohl’s with new seasonal looks.

“I have a delivery coming up in a few months, and it’s my favorite yet,” she gushed. “Designing is a learning process, but it’s been fun. I’ve fallen more and more in love with it as time’s gone on.” We’re excited to see her new looks!

Jessica Simpson “embraces natural beauty”, which is very easy when you’re naturally gorgeous!

Jessica Simpson has revealed that she has learned to embrace her natural beauty.

The singer has admitted that she no longer cares what other people think of her and opens up about the versatility of hair.

Speaking to Marie Claire, the 29-year-old said: “I don’t have anything to prove anymore. What other people think of me is not my business.”

As for handing out hair advice, she added: “People think updos are so hard, but they’re not. Your hair should look tousled and undone.

“If I’m in a mood to go out and feel hot and sexy, I want long hair that I can feel on my back. But I also like bed-head.”

Simpson’s new show The Price Of Beauty is currently airing on VH1.
