I Just Found Out Anne Hathaway Uses This Luxe, Skin-Sculpting Cream—Now I Want to Buy It in Bulk

Anne Hathaway has been a beauty icon since 2001. That, dear reader, is when The Princess Diaries premiered. (As a millennial, that's an alarming and almost unbelievable fact.) Back then, she was Mia Thermopolis, a shy teen who was transformed into the Princess of Genovia with a little help from her grandmother (played by Julie Andrews) and Paolo (the snarky hairstylist). I remember wanting her post-makeover look so badly. The shiny hair! The subtle smoky eye! The rosy lip!
Cut to 2006, and I was influenced by Anne Hathaway again, this time as Andy Sachs, the assistant to the diabolical Miranda Priestly. She may or may not have convinced me to try cutting my own bangs (0/10—I don't recommend).
These days, I'm just as influenced by Anne Hathaway, but for another reason. As someone obsessed with healthy aging, I hope my skin looks even half as good as hers does when I'm 42. And before you say anything, I know in-office treatments could be at play, but you don't get skin like that without using high-quality products every day. In her case, that's a certain luxe, skin-sculpting cream that promises to lift, firm, and generally rewind the clock when it comes to treating premature signs of aging. Keep scrolling to see the exact skin cream she uses.
Hathaway uses this skin cream from the iconic Japanese brand Shiseido. It's packed with multiple anti-aging ingredients, including ginseng root extract and something called SafflowerRED, which is a proprietary ingredient grown exclusively in Japan and shown to support natural collagen production.
This skin cream aims to address ALL age-related concerns, including loss of firmness, fine lines, deep wrinkles, and uneven skin tone. It's not just a promise, though. It's been clinically proven to provide firmer, brighter, and more sculpted skin in as little as one week. Looking at Hathaway's skin, I believe it. Now I just have to ask one thing: Can I buy this stuff in bulk?

This spot treatment isn't for breakouts—it's for dark spots and discoloration. The key ingredient is retinol, which brightens and evens the skin tone while addressing skin concerns like fine lines, deep wrinkles, and more. Use it on your eye and mouth area or anywhere you want to lighten discoloration.
