The One That She Wants

Even in the midst of touring and wrap ping up her latest album, Christmas Serenity, breast-cancer survivor OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN still manages to attend to her well-being: four times a year she recharges at Gaia, the spa she owns in Australia (gaiaretreat.com). “I like to call its style ‘barefoot Armani,” she says. Here, the fifty-nine-year-old singer and actress (left) tells T&C how she keeps her beauty routine top-notch and carefree, too.

  1. CANDLE COMFORTS: “When I travel, I’m never without Southern Soy Scents candles in travel tins [$12.50]. The scents Angel Wings and Grace always make my hotel stays more homey.” southernsoy scents.com.

  2. IN-FLIGHT TREATMENT: Newton-John’s trick for looking bright-eyed after a long flight? Dabbing on Estée Lauder ReNutriv Intensive Lifting Eye Creme ($78). “A bit of this hydrator before I board and right before I land refreshes my skin.” estee lauder.com.

  3. A FIG FOR NEWTON: “My onetime favorite scent, which featured fruity fig notes, was discontinued, but thanks to Jo Malone I have a new favorite, Wild Fig & Cassis [1 oz, $50]. I wear it all the time.” jomalone.com.

  4. AMAZING AMAZON: Newton-John is a devotee of Amazon Herb Co., which sources ingredients from Peru’s rain forests to make beauty products, tea and supplements. “The Lluvia Camu C Serum [$55] is an anti-aging treatment that contains nothing bad for my skin-no preservatives-and its fresh scent is incredible.” amazonianherb.com.

  5. A FINE LINE: “I love that the Revlon Colorstay Lipliners [$7.99] come in wind-up sticks. The shade Nude is always in my bag and ready to use on the spot; I never need a sharpener.” At drugstores.

  6. SUN SMART: For a safe, natural-looking tan, Newton-John has traded basking in Australia’s sun for L’Oréal Sublime Glow for Face ($9.99). “I use it every other day over moisturizer.” loreal.com.

  7. ROYAL LASHES: “In the evening I wear black mascara. But for day I don’t like my lashes to be so dramatic. To soften them, I layer Yves Saint Laurent mascara in deep purple [$26.50] over the black. The color looks lovely on blondes.” nordstrom.com.

  8. MINERAL MAVEN: “Jane Iredale Pure-Pressed Base mineral compact [$48] is light, but it provides such great coverage that I’ve even worn it on-camera.” jane iredaledirect.com.
