Barbie star Margot Robbie has recently been praised for her doll-perfect skin in Greta Gerwig’s movie.

Fans were shocked to see their favourite actress in impeccable skin and it’s not only makeup and facials that did wonders to her skin.

Margot revealed that she used to drink “a special tea to get her skin doll-perfect for the movie”.

Agreeing to the actress statement, skin health specialist Jasmina Vico, who was in charge of keeping the stars glowing on-screen, told Vogue, “Everything in the movies is about lighting. That's when I thought, OK, we're going to work on the liver, calm the nervous system, and make skin glow. But, crucially, we're going to work on that glow from within.”

Jasmina mentioned that she introduced the cast, including Margot Robbie, America Ferrera, and Emma Mackey, to “milk thistle tea, which is popular in her native Croatia”.

Jasmina shared, “Milk thistle cleanses your liver. When that happens, our liver automatically produces more glutathione, which then makes the skin more radiant.”

Elaborating on how this tea is made, Jasmina revealed that the “tea includes the spiky heart of milk thistle, which needs to be brewed for 20 minutes to achieve its bitter taste”.

“The liver likes anything bitter, because it helps it to flush," she added. "This tea is like a witch's brew!” claimed the skin specialist.

It is reported that the “tea” was a hit among the Barbie cast and that is not all.

Jasmina disclosed she “gave Margot kefir and advised her to eat lots of fermented foods, like sauerkraut”.

“Margot loved all of that,” she told the outlet.

Meanwhile, Jasmina also had a trick to treat acne or blemishes on movie set.

“Always use salicylic acid and ice as the latter reduces the heat and inflammation and salicylic acid helps unclog the pores,” added skin specialist.
