Salma Hayek, 58, reveals unusual hack for covering grays... after posing in a bikini for SI
Salma Hayek has revealed her unusual hack for covering up gray hairs after trying to steer clear of hair dye. The 58-year-old From Dusk Till Dawn actress — who recently made a glamorous appearance at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival — gave fans a look at her makeup routine during a new video for Vogue Beauty on Monday. The mom-of-one also offered a few of her own beauty tips, such as how she covers grays without professionally coloring her long locks. While filming herself inside a spacious bathroom, Hayek explained to the viewers that she does 'not dye my hair.' The star continued, 'But if you choose not to dye your hair and you have the white like I do... or sometimes you don't want the white, I use mascara.' Salma then held up a tube of Benefic Cosmetics Roller Lash Mascara which can be purchased for $29. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Vogue Beauty (@voguebeauty) The actress then began to apply some of the black mascara to her graying roots around her face. Hayek expressed that the special hack can also keep some of the loose hair 'out of your face. 'You have to change your makeup and beauty routine as you get older,' she said, followed by a small laugh as she kept putting mascara on some of the roots. The Frida actress also advised, 'Sometimes you go, "Oh, I don't look good and I did all my makeup but I hate the way I look." Change the makeup. 'Because maybe what worked before isn't working now. So, it's good to be adventurous and creative and try to have fun while you do it.' After the star finished applying the mascara, she began to run her fingers through her long locks and said you could still put products in as well - although she wasn't adding any at the time. 'Touch your face, touch your hair, touch yourself. It's all about the connection that you have with yourself and it's the routine of beauty. 'It's a great moment to experience that. You will get more by doing this, than by putting a thousand products on your hair, on your skin,' Salma added as she bunched her strands of hair together. Hayek expressed that the special hack can also keep some of the loose hair 'out of your face' 'You have to change your makeup and beauty routine as you get older,' she said, followed by a small laugh as she kept putting mascara on some of the roots Hayek expressed, 'Touch your face, touch your hair, touch yourself. It's all about the connection that you have with yourself and it's the routine of beauty' 'You know, using your hands - using your fingers. It's having a moment of connection with yourself, and you can make this beauty routine meaningful instead of just criticizing yourself.' Elsewhere in the Vogue clip, Hayek showed off the steps she uses when putting on her makeup - such as foundation, contour and powders. At one point, the actress added a light layer of cream blush to her cheekbones and explained that she doesn't get fillers. 'As you get older, I thought when I saw like faces that were going like this - you know, that there were holes and stuff. I thought it was because people were putting fillers, you know? 'And then it was the imperfection of the filler. Guess what? No. It happens naturally,' Hayek admitted with a giggle. 'Because I don't put fillers and I get it.' The star has previously showed off her graying hair to her fans - such as on social media and also on the red carpet. Earlier this year in January, Salma - who is married to billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault - exuded confidence at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards while embracing her graying locks. She stunned on the red carpet in a figure-hugging gown while her hair was partially pulled back into a half up do, easily showing off her roots. Earlier this year in January, Salma - who is married to billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault - exuded confidence at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards while embracing her graying locks (seen above) Along with not getting fillers, Hayek has also revealed she doesn't get Botox as well as during a past appearance on Kelly Ripa's Let's Talk Off Camera podcast. At one point, the talk show host gushed over Salma's beauty and questioned whether the actress has used Botox, with the star responding with, 'No Botox! ' In regards to how she has acquired such a youthful appearance, she explained that both 'meditation' and 'frequency machines' have attributed to her glow. Last month in May, Hayek - who is mom to daughter Valentina, 17 - made a big milestone as one of the stars who landed the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2025. The actress showed off her toned physique while posing in stylish swimsuits, not long after sharing how often she exercises. During an interview with Marie Claire in March, the actress revealed that she will only workout a few times throughout the year. 'Four times a year, I put music on and walk on my own treadmill. Don't ask me to run; my boobs are not made for that.' Hayek added that she embraces her curves - but did share that she misses the body she had at age 25. During an interview with Marie Claire in March, the actress revealed that she will only workout a few times throughout the year 'I feel so fortunate that I am part of a generation that has been able to really experience very tangible change. I could retire, but I don't want to miss out on this time,' Hayek said; seen in May in Cannes 'I do confess, I want the old body; the one I had at 25 and criticized and hated nonstop. Oh, please, Lord Jesus, give it back to me. I apologize.' She also reflected on growing older in the industry and how she is able to branch out into other roles without being defined by her appearance. 'There was a time when I was the sexy girl, but thank God age came and gave me the ability to expand to other territories. Although I'm still sexy and I embrace it.' The Desperado star added, 'Another calling that I have is to remind everyone that women are not disposable after a certain age in any department. We should battle that with all we've got.' When it comes to landing the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover, she talked to the outlet about achieving the milestone in her late 50s. Salma remembered reading the magazine when she was younger - but explained that she 'didn't look like a model, so it never crossed my mind that one day I would be in it.' However, the beauty discussed how the world has changed over the years, which she admitted was 'exciting.' 'I feel so fortunate that I am part of a generation that has been able to really experience very tangible change. I could retire, but I don't want to miss out on this time.' Hayek then applauded the outlet for 'saying that it's O.K., maybe even cool, to be past 50 and still be able to feel not just sexy, but for me, to be free and not be self-conscious of your body like you have to hide.

I'm a make-up artist and my hack will stop your sunglasses from rubbing your foundation off your nose for good
WHILE the sun may not be shining today, it won't be long before our sunglasses become a daily essential. And although they are both stylish and practical they come with that all too familiar beauty frustration: the dreaded marks they leave on your nose. 1 But fear not, Revolution Beauty makeup artist Mel Trierweiler shares her top tips for avoiding sunglasses marks this summer. Mel comments, 'There is nothing more frustrating than when your sunglasses leave marks on either side of your nose. 'However, the solution to stop this from happening might be sitting in your makeup bag already.' She recommends applying a bit of loose powder to the bridge of your nose and the inner frame of your sunglasses. This creates a barrier, absorbs excess oil, and keeps your make-up from transferring. Mel continues: 'To avoid those frustrating sunglasses marks a cosmetic baking powder is a great choice. 'It's easy to apply, and can be tapped directly onto your sunglasses frame and the bridge of your nose. 'If you're on the move, using a powder puff or beauty blender makes reapplying simple - no need to use your hands. 'It is also important to clean your sunglasses every morning, as leftover oils can break down your makeup and cause marks.' Mel also recommends applying a setting spray to your beauty blender before dipping into the loose setting powder, as this can add extra grip and a long-lasting hold. Lidl is selling a £2.99 product beauty fans are racing to nab - you don't have to wear foundation AND it contains SPF50 'It instantly locks your look in place and leaves your complexion with a shine-free finish,' she says. How To Save Money On Beauty Buys IF your purse is feeling tighter than ever before and you're looking to save cash on your make-up routine, have you ever thought of trying out beauty dupes? Here are five of the best recommended beauty buys that are almost identical to the posh versions, but at a fraction of the price. FACE BASE If you can't afford Charlotte Tilbury 's £52 Magic Cream, why not try a dupe that costs just £5.49 from Superdrug? TONE IT UP If Drunk Elephant's £62 Protini Cream is out of your price range, you'll need to check out the new dupe in Home Bargains. TINTING IT With Fenty's game-changer skin tint costing £29, a popular supermarket's affordable alternative might just be the thing for you. GET COVERED At £29 for a Tarte concealer, the new Primark dupe is much more affordable at just £3.50. SPRAY YAY For those wanting to smell fresh without the price tag, Aldi's new Prada and Chloe perfume dupes cost a fraction of the price.
