Mariska Hargitay, the Emmy Award-winning actor, is known for her TV performances and for clearly possessing her very own fountain of youth! Famous for playing the role of the fearless Olivia Benson in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, when she is not busy solving crimes on screen, she devotes time to being a mom to her three kids and working on other projects—all the while looking fabulous. How does she do it? Let’s find out.
Hargitay was born to famous parents but started her career competing in beauty pageants in the 80s before moving on to television. While filming for Law & Order, she met her to-be husband, co-actor Peter Hermann.
Over the years, Hargitay captivated viewers with her work and effortless charm and grace. In a world where anti-aging products are as common as Starbucks on every street, Hargitay sticks to tried-and-tested few. Dozens of products and bi-weekly expensive facials are not for her. In a recent Instagram post, Hargitay offered a glimpse into her self-care, featuring a Star Wars-esque face mask. The Internet was quick to offer all kinds of witty comments along with some appreciation for her dedication to skin care. But, in all seriousness, the red light therapy mask (yes, that is what she is wearing in the post) is becoming a popular skincare tool. It uses the power of LED lights to stimulate collagen production and reduce signs of aging. Another staple in her skin care regimen is sunscreen, which helps shield the skin from sun damage.
That’s not it! The focus on a healthy body and mind may also contribute to her youthful appearance. The actor told Allure, “I do short exercise videos in my dressing room, and I’m going to install a little ballet bar so I can do, like, knee bends and get the thighs burning. I bought a trampoline for my son that we jump on together, and never in my life has my heart rate gone up so fast. It’s an incredible workout.” She also practices good eating habits, exercise, stress-relieving activities, meditation, and yoga to stay healthy. The actor also prioritizes downtime. In interviews, she has discussed the importance of prioritizing mental well-being or simply taking a moment to unwind after a long day on set.
Finally, her dedication to living life to the fullest might have a little something to do with how she carries herself. Whether she’s striking a pose on the red carpet or chasing down bad guys on set, Hargitay approaches every moment with the gusto of a kid in a candy store. So, it seems like self-care and the right attitude to life might be the keys to staying eternally youthful.
