The Rock’s Dapper Looks Aren’t Just a Fitness Thing!

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is a goal for many people and for all the right reasons! From that exceptionally charming smile and his delightful persona to his Herculean physique – it seems like there’s nothing that the man can’t do. However, there’s more to his stunning looks than meets the eye. We’ve found the secret behind his stunning looks on the red carpet, and no, it’s not just his fitness routine!

The Rock has always been known for his intense daily routine. One of those rare people who can function well on little sleep, he kickstarts his day at 3.30 AM with a cardio workout on an empty stomach. While training, he reportedly eats six to seven big, protein-heavy meals daily, totaling around 4,000 calories. And thanks to his Samoan roots, it’s no surprise that fish is a prominent feature in his meal plan.

In addition to this strict nutritional regime, Johnson supplements it with heavy-duty workouts, especially when he’s building mass for a character. But you already knew that, didn’t you? 

While his food and lifestyle play a crucial role in making him look camera-ready, there’s something else he does as well – he takes great care of his skin! In a rather candid interview with GQ magazine, he shared bits of his conversation with one of his best friends, Emily Blunt. He said, “We were on set, talking about our skincare routines and going back and forth: What’s your exfoliator? What’s your lotion? What’s your morning and night routines? We started laughing and realized we were using many of the same products. Finally, she goes, Well, I gotta ask you: What toner do you use? And I said, ‘I don’t use a toner.’ She looked at me like I kicked my puppy. She sent me the toner that she uses, and I said I’ll give it six weeks. I used it and was blown away, and then I became obsessed. I said: ‘Okay, this feels like a secret weapon for me.’”

What’s even more remarkable about The Rock is that he isn’t gatekeeping any of this information. In fact, he’s bringing men’s self-care into the foreground with the launch of his new 22-product skincare line, PAPATUI, which makes face, body, hair, and tattoo-care products. Speaking to GQ, he shared, “I wanted to get guys in the space of being comfortable owning our skin care and our self-care because we like to think—we try our best, by the way—to own all these other areas.”

Well, now you know! While a healthy mindset and lifestyle can help you achieve many milestones, it can only take you so far. Skincare looks like the real game-changer, not just for Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, but for everyone, as it helps unlock a new level of confidence.
