“I find then I just don’t look sleepy [when I’m wearing those],” she said. “I’m not really trying to walk around with a full face of makeup. I just would like to look like I’m not still asleep.”

The Merit stick is made to serve as both concealer and foundation, making it ideal for on-the-go touch-ups.

It’s earned rave reviews from fellow multitasking A-listers like Martha Stewart, who included it in her “under-five-minute” beauty routine video with the brand last year.

As for the Victoria Beckham balm, Bell told Today it also makes a great stocking stuffer during the holidays.

“Throughout history, moms have woken up Christmas morning with a flat ass sock hanging on the mantle. I find that unacceptable,” she quipped.

When it comes to wellness, Bell’s routine also includes multiple products she discovered on the internet, including the Chirp Wheel Foam Rollers she bought from a “convincing” online ad.

“I get a lot of weird yoga products and back stretchers, and I’ve got to tell you, I use every single one of them,” she explained.

She also found out about Jaxon Lane’s Shake and Wake Enzyme Powder Face Wash from a targeted ad — and immediately added it to cart.

“It’s just a powder, and I don’t ever have to worry about the travel of it all,” she said. “I’ve got both my girls hooked on it as well.”

It seems even stars can’t resist good advertising.
