Lupita Nyong'o feels "most beautiful" after she takes a cold shower.
The 41-year-old actress has opened up about her best beauty tips and Lupita has revealed she enjoys bathing in cold water because it gives her a rush and makes her feel euphoric.
In a video for Harper’s Bazaar, she explained: "I feel most beautiful after a cold shower. It exhilarates you. You get this whoosh of like dopamine or something and I feel like dancing. It's a lovely feeling when I feel euphoria ... "
She added of her self-care routine: "I just believe in taking care of myself. It looks like self-awareness. That's what self-care means to me."
Lupita also spoke about her love of fashion and revealed her personal style has become more "daring" over the years because she previously handed her stylist a long list of clothing trends which she refused to wear.
She said: "What I've learned about style over the years is that it doesn't have to change with the trends. You can establish your own style and build on it at your own pace.
"My personal style ... how has it evolved? When I first started working with my stylist ... I gave her a list of things I would never wear and it included velvet, bias cut. I think I said I wouldn't wear frills, I wouldn't wear peplum. But anyway I've worn all of it so I guess I've grown more daring."
She concluded by sharing her best fashion advice that was given to her by her mom, saying: "Always dress to respect yourself and the event that you're going to."
