Scarlett Johansson doesn’t have time for complications in her skincare routine.
- The founder of The Outset prefers to keep things simple with her skincare routine, using multitasking products that really work.
- E! previously spoke with the actress, who revealed the “straightforward and efficient” products from her brand that she can’t get enough of.
- One of her standouts from the line is the Firming Vegan Collagen Prep Serum, which she says “take the place of four products” in her routine.
She added: “I hear from so many people that they get hooked by our Prep Serum. It’s a multitasker that takes the place of four products and I think we can all appreciate a product that simplifies your routine. Personally, my skin doesn’t feel the same without it!”
And as for her biggest piece of skincare advice, she says to “develop a routine you can stick to. I think I've got mine down now, and the key is to keep it streamlined—that’s why The Outset routines are always straightforward and efficient. You don’t need a 16-step routine to get great results.”
Whether you’re looking to simplify your entire routine, or find a new favorite, Scarlett’s top recommendations are here to help.
Celeb-Loved
The Outset Firming Vegan Collagen Prep Serum
"The Prep Serum was my dream product when I started working on The Outset. I don’t have time for an elaborate routine so it was really important to me to formulate a product that would multitask, contribute to my glow, and work as a prep step, and this is exactly that."
More from Scarlett: "It’s one of those products that when I stop using it, I really notice a difference. I asked one of our facialists here why this happens and they explained that it’s because the serum prepares your skin to receive the moisture and goodness of any products you apply afterwards, so when you skip this step, the results are really noticeable."
The Outset Exfoliating Caffeine Micro Polish
"As someone with sensitive skin, I’ve always been afraid of exfoliators so I love that our Micro Polish is gentle enough for anyone to use," said Scarlett.
More from Scarlett: "The exfoliation comes from fine perlite that’s perfectly round and removes dead skin cells without tearing your skin. It smooths and brightens so I use it a few times a week."
The Outset Purifying Blue Clay Mask
"You’ll get the best results if you find a way to incorporate it into your consistent routine, 1-2 times a week and stick with it. If that means setting aside 10 minutes every week for 'me' time, or using it while you get the kids ready for bed, find whatever works for you!"
More from Scarlett: "I've used the clay mask in the shower, I put it on, and then I shampoo my hair. I just don't have the time to dedicate to anything, so I have to mush my steps together because I have two kids that, for some reason, as soon as I get in the shower, they have immediate emergencies."
The Outset Gentle Micellar Antioxidant Cleanser
"You can get a really deep clean and remove makeup without stripping your skin—people are always shocked by how soft and hydrated their skin feels after using it!"
The Outset Ultralight Moisture-Boosting Oil
"The great thing about the Boosting Oil is how flexible it is—you can pat a few drops directly onto your skin and it soaks in beautifully without a greasy finish."
The Outset Nourishing Squalane Daily Moisturizer
"In the fall and winter, I love mixing a few drops of the Boosting Oil into the Moisturizer to boost the hydration. The moisturizer is already clinically proven to hydrate for 24 hours and this takes it to the next level, especially if you have dry skin like me."
The Outset Smoothing Vitamin C Eye + Expression Lines Cream
"Lots of eye creams can be irritating for those with sensitive skin so we specifically chose a gentle form of Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Glucoside) that is stable but non-irritating. You can use it not only around the eye area but other expression lines like around the mouth and forehead."
More from Scarlett: "For younger customers, it’s a wonderful preventative product that hydrates and brightens the underage area. If you’re looking for more advanced anti-aging, it visibly reduces the look of fine lines."
The Outset Botanical Barrier Rescue Balm
"I love the experience of 'breaking the seal' on a new Barrier Balm—warming it up in your hands immediately turns it into an ultra-rich treatment that feels amazing on any particularly dry areas. Plus the tin makes it easy to throw in your bag and use anywhere!"
