Kate Beckinsale favours one ingredient for smooth skin
Kate Beckinsale, 50, has posted a series of snaps online showing off her healthy and glowing complexion.
The London-born actress has spoken about what she does to stay looking young.
While she has maintained youthful skin into her 50s, she didn't put a focus on this until later in life.
She explained she did not have a skin care routine until her late 30s or early 40s.
Genetics plays a part in the ageing process and she explained her mum also has really good skin.

When younger, Kate said she would use sunscreen with a high SPF whenever in the sun.
Sun can speed up signs of ageing so wearing a good SPF will help protect from this.
Using sunscreen even when it is cloudy outside will give the best protection.
Another product Kate praised was the skin care ingredient retinol.
She hailed it "for smoothing out pores and just keeping everything plumpy" when speaking with PEOPLE.
Retinol is often applauded for its ability to clear skin and make it appear younger.
It is an ingredient that can be found in a number of skin care products and it aims to increase the elasticity of your skin, making you appear younger.
