Expert tips on getting that celebrity glow without needing that movie star paycheck.

Motherhood wreaks havoc on our skin, changing its texture and adding dark circles where bright eyes used to be. (Thanks for that, kids). Here are recommendations from top beauty experts for getting radiant skin--in a flash.

Normal Skin
Celeb Mom who has it: Jessica Alba.

Celebrity skin care expert Kate Sommerville recommends that Moms like Jessica wash with a gentle, sulfate-free face wash, and exfoliate twice a week to keep skin "looking really fresh and luminous." She also uses her hydrating system on Jessica to lock in some extra moisture. Breakouts get spot-treated with a sulfur-based product.

How every Mom can get it. Guzzle a lot of H2O on a daily basis for moisture, add more fresh fruits and veggies to your diet, and wear SPF 30 sunscreen to keep skin healthy, clear and keep lines at bay, says Kate. If you have normal skin, Mom•Logic's beauty editors swear by Dr. Hauschka's Rose Light Day Cream to hydrate without clogging the pores.

Dry
Celeb Mom Who Has It: Felicity Huffman.

Kate recommends Moms like Felicity use a very delicate wash twice daily and exfoliate once a week. A hydrating mask at night a few times a week is a good idea.

How every Mom can get it. A mashed-up avocado mask delivers healthy, natural oils into the skin, says Kate. She recommends fish oil supplements--try VitaMedica--as a healthy way to keep skin younger. Our beauty editors swear by Weleda Skin Food, which smells yummy and gives your skin a serious
hydrating boost.

Combination:
Celeb Mom who has it: Debra Messing

Kate has Moms like Debra use a gentle skin cleanser in the morning and a detoxifying wash at night, which will keep combo and acne-prone skin healthy. She also uses an enzyme scrub and mask, a light daily moisturizer and an eye brightener to help dark circles.

How every Mom can get it: Put Dermalogica's Total Eye Care under your peepers, which moisturizes the skin, protects against UV exposure and conceals those dark circles. To tone down the shine, try Kiehl's Rare Earth Face Mask. On your t-zone action, try Kiehl's Blue Astringent Herbal Lotion. And if you're not too freaked out by it, use a clean toilet seat cover for quick in-the-restroom oil blotting.

Tired of hearing about Jessica Alba. I can’t wait until she has her baby so we don’t have to hear about her anymore!
