Kristen Bell, Sophia Bush, and Elizabeth Olsen Talk Earth Day Beauty

...the weirdest beauty treatment she has tried.

"I get very culinary with my beauty regimen," she says. "I've used coconut oil as a body moisturizer. I've done avocado, or a mixture of avocado and mayonnaise, in my hair as a conditioner. As a body scrub brown, sometimes I'll mix sugar, honey, and coconut oil. But [outside of the kitchen] I haven't experimented that much with weird ingredients, partly because I try and make a commitment to acknowledging where the ingredients are harvested from. For instance, if a super-rare berry is from the middle of the Amazon, it may not be harvested very responsibly, and maybe the Amazon needs it, and I don't need it on my skin."

...her biggest beauty guilty pleasure.

"If left alone in the bathroom for a long enough period of time, I will pick at my face. I will squeeze every blackhead that I see," she admits. "It's not a great habit, but if I'm being honest, it's something I do. You can't get around the fact that it's so rewarding. It's just not good for my skin under any circumstance, so I try desperately not to do it, but I seem to often fail."

Kristen's Earth Day Cause: Neutrogena Naturals (Bell is the brand ambassador) is partnering with the Nature Conservancy to help conserve water through the #WipeForWater campaign. The campaign is challenging consumers to wash their faces without water for one week—and instead use the new Neutrogena Naturals Purifying Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes (which are made from 100-percent renewable fibers). For each pledge on wipeforwater.com, Neutrogena will contribute $1 to the Nature Conservancy to support water conservation, up to $50,000.

Elizabeth Olsen gets honest about...

...how often she keeps up with her skin care routine.

"Every day," she says. "Going to bed takes far longer than waking up. I wake up, brush my teeth, splash cold water on my face, and then I exercise. I always try and wash my face after a workout. At night, I wash with a light scrub, put on my eye cream, and then use a heavy night cream."
