Julianne Hough has never been one to hold back, and she\u2019s not about to start now. The dancer, actress and host of Dancing with the Stars<\/em> has spent the last few years exploring everything from lasers to neurotoxins, and she\u2019s making a refreshing and compelling case that talking openly about injectables should be as normal as crediting a trainer or a great colorist. She\u2019s had her share of trial and error (including one memorable photoshoot with a droopy eyelid), but she’s finally found her match with one specific skin-enhancing neurotoxin.<\/p>\n We got to talk to the star about her go-to treatment, why being honest about aesthetics is so important and the inspiration she\u2019s bringing home from her Euro summer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cProbably back when I was like 27 or 28, I started with the baby version. Then I got more into lasers and things like that, about two or three years ago. Daxxify was maybe a year ago, and now I definitely won\u2019t use anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI love that it\u2019s a peptide-based formula. Whether or not it\u2019s because I have this association with health surrounding it, it just makes me feel better\u2014I also feel like I know more about it, which helps too. Now that I\u2019ve actually done it, I\u2019m like, \u2018Oh my gosh!\u2019 You can really tell the difference. I thought it was going to be a lateral move. I was not expecting much, but it really shocked me.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201c100 percent, the skin changes. I had no idea that was going to happen. I think that was even more so [exciting to me] than that it kicks in faster or that it lasts longer. Like, those are great, great benefits, but I think it’s the skin for me.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201c11s and frown lines. I don\u2019t mind smile lines\u2014I think they\u2019re really beautiful. But I hate it when makeup feels cakey, and that\u2019s why I like Daxxify so much: it feels plump, like skin. I still have a few cute little lines, but everything\u2019s smoother. It doesn\u2019t feel like I\u2019m just putting makeup on top\u2014it still feels like it\u2019s in my skin.”<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m telling you, when I get Daxxify\u2014I just got it recently\u2014when I first get it, I\u2019m like, whoa. It\u2019s such an enhancer of your natural aliveness. I keep saying \u2018aliveness\u2019 because it feels like the opposite of what it normally feels like [to get injectables]. I feel like my skin has never looked better.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s so much out there, and so many people looking incredible, and everybody is curious as to what they\u2019re doing, and the transparency is so nice because it makes you feel like it\u2019s attainable and not just genetics.<\/p>\n Then there\u2019s the part that\u2019s like, I think it\u2019s horrible to hold secrets, and I don\u2019t think you should feel shame about being honest about it if it’s making you feel confident and great. We talk about trainers we use for our body and about hiring a nutritionist to help with our health. Why are we not talking about the things that are enhancing [our face]? Because there\u2019s a stigma that beauty is bad? That\u2019s an awful thing. <\/p>\n As pro-women, we should be sharing what makes you feel amazing versus having to be like \u2018we’re all natural beauties, and if you do anything, then that’s bad.\u2019 You know, like what the f\u2014k? Like, what man decided that? Like ew. It also makes the standard feel higher when you’re keeping something a secret. When you’re just talking about it, it\u2019s just another thing.<\/p>\n \u201cRight, or it\u2019s the same as how I get highlights in my hair to make my face look better and change the shape and color and tone\u2014like all the things that we do. Why are we not also just owning it?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s my question. Can that person just close their eyes, breathe in, and be like, \u2018What am I hiding?\u2019 This is a bigger conversation than I think, just beauty on the outside.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWell, honestly, I feel like I’ve figured it out with Daxxify and the person that’s doing it. I\u2019m not going to lie, I had one experience a couple of years ago where one of my eyes was halfway down. I was at a photoshoot, and the person was asking my makeup artist, \u2018Hey, her one eye is looking a little droopy,\u2019 and she’s like, \u2018Girl, there’s nothing I can do,\u2019 and so it’s been trial and error. I’ve had some weird experiences, and so it\u2019s a good thing it metabolized and went away. Thank God. But I will say that my experience with Daxxify has been very natural.<\/p>\n A lot of the time it’s good to know what you don\u2019t like just as much as what you do like, so you can be clear and say, \u2018I want it to be as natural as possible. I want to look like me. I just want preventative, long-term maintenance versus a whole change.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cPresence. Presence is peace. And I think as Americans, we are so lucky that we have the opportunity to hustle and grind and do all the things that we love. But then we go to the places that live with presence on a daily basis, and their health, their anxiety, their depression\u2014all of it is so much lower than ours. <\/p>\n And so we\u2019re going there to get a quick fix versus how do we integrate that into our actual life, and I think that instead of adding more and more to our regimens, I think taking away things is probably the best way to look at it and do things as simply as possible. We’re just always trying to add to make things better, versus how do we take away? Because we\u2019re already at capacity, guys.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Julianne Hough has never been one to hold back, and she […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3134,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[55],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3133"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3133"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3133\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3134"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3133"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3133"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nichebeaty.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3133"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}When did you first become interested in cosmetic treatments?<\/h2>\n

How do you ensure your cosmetic treatments soften lines and do what you want them to do without compromising the emotions you need for work and performing?<\/h2>\n
