Paris Hilton’s Beauty Secrets Include a Full Spa In Her Home (Exclusive)

Paris Hilton, 43, is certainly no stranger to the world of beauty and style.

But the mom to Phoenix, 2, and daughter London, 18 months, who recently collaborated with NYX Professional Makeup in the ‘If You NYX [Professional Makeup] You Know’ campaign with her longtime pal Saweetie, also knows you don’t need to spend a fortune when it comes to finding amazing products that work.

“I have always loved NYX,” says Hilton of the beauty brand. “They’ve always had so many shades, colors I love, and I love the way their glosses feel. I also think it’s amazing that it’s affordable luxury, so everybody can enjoy their products, and feel beautiful and confident.”

She adds, “$75 for a lipstick? No. You don’t have to spend that much to look good.”

These days, when Paris isn’t working, she says she’s usually mostly makeup-free — maybe she just does a quickie lip or eyes.

“I might do a little mascara and a little gloss, like the NYX Butter Gloss. It just feels so good going on. And their Fat Oil is amazing. It’s all about that applicator. But if I’m not working, I just don’t want to wear a lot. Since I’ve had kids, especially — I just put my hair in a bun with very little makeup, and it’s my favorite way to be with them.”

That said, when it comes to taking care of her overall wellness, Hilton goes all out with a spa that she had installed in her home so she doesn’t have to book and travel to appointments.

“I built what I call my ‘Slivin spa’ inside my own home, so I can go in there for facials while I’m working and multitask. I have my LED red light bath, my cryo chamber, and all these amazing medical-grade machines for wellness, but I can take calls at the same time.”

She admits with a laugh, “My schedule is insane!”

Her summer is already packed with plans — up next is a trip to the Cannes Lions festival to conduct various fireside talks, a massive concert in Romania, and then she’s sailing around the Mediterranean for a week with her family. When she has a rare day off, she says she’s usually found in the playroom at home, and loving it.

“I just like being home with them,” she says of her kids. “We’ll go into the yard and play in the dollhouse, play with all the fake food and pretend to cook, go down to the park down the street and play in the sand. We just love being home together as a family, and then maybe inviting all their cousins over too. It’s so much fun.”

She adds that she knows she was born to be a mom.

“I’m already such a kid at heart, so it’s just like I feel like a kid all over again when I’m with them,” she says. “It’s so fun to experience things like going to Disneyland and just seeing the excitement in their eyes and the happiness. It’s more fun hanging out with them than doing anything I’ve ever done in my life.”
