Actress Anna Friel says she is a fan of reflexology and she has tried acupuncture on the face. The 37-year-old also pampers herself with regular facials, which cools the skin and improves blood supply.

"I'm a massive fan of reflexology and I've tried acupuncture on the face which boosts collagen. Also Cryoderm facials - I like to try different things to mix it up a bit," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Friel as saying.

A 75-minute Cryoderm session involves microdermabrasion, which removes dead skin, and includes a massage to reduce puffiness.

The actress also likes to splash ice-cold water on her face on a daily basis to tighten up her pores and achieve a radiant complexion.

 

"Sink full of ice. As horrible as it is when you first get out of bed, splash cold water on your face every morning and keep splashing for a minute. All the old movie stars used to do it," she said.

The "Limitless" actress, who is the new face of organic beauty range Trilogy, is a firm believer in eating healthily and keeping fit as well as having superficial treatments.

"The Trilogy Gentle Facial Exfoliant is amazing. I also believe in doing a dry brush exfoliation once a week to get all the toxins out. Eat healthy, try and do Pilates. I've tried to cut caffeine out, I find it really dehydrating," she said.
