As far as what the star does on regular bases before glam-ing it up for the red carpet. Henson reveals it’s all about keeping it moisturized.

“I wash my face in the morning and at night. I drink a lot of water. You have to stay hydrated. As far as my hair…I wrap my hair at night because that’s less heat on it everyday. I’m a health whore, for lack of a better word. I love healthy hair. I love healthy skin. I love skin that glows. When I go home and I go to bed I take my clothes off, I feel like I’ve just put lotion on.”

When asked which co-stars skin she admires the most, Taraji had one simple answer.

“I would have to say Tyrese. It’s not fair because he’s a model, but he does have very beautiful skin. I think the darker the complexion, the richer the skin. I don’t know. He is a good-looking man. But he was very young too, and he…


…doesn’t grow a lot of facial hair so you can really see how smooth his skin is. Still to this day, he’s in his thirties now, he still doesn’t have a lot of facial hair so you can really see his skin. It’s beautiful.”

Way to go Taraji!
