Sonia Kruger, 59, reveals the trick behind her age-defying visage that she swears by as a busy working mum: ‘Works while I’m sleeping’

Sonia Kruger always looks decades younger than her age. 

And as she approaches 60, the television host is looking better than ever, all thanks to simple tricks. 

The Dancing With The Stars host has revealed that she swears by an overnight serum to do most of the work for her. 

As a mum of a nine-year-old daughter, Maggie, and a busy career to boot, Sonia says she needs to keep her skincare simple. 

She uses the Radiant Complexion Serum from Three Warriors, which retails at a reasonable $80.

‘My make-up artist Simone Forte loves that the serum keeps my face hydrated overnight and in the morning my skin already has a nice base,’ Sonia told The Beauty Diary this week.

‘The best part is, after I take off all my TV make up and I’ve applied the Radiant Complexion Serum, I know I’m going to wake up with a beautiful glow in the morning’ she continued. 

‘For busy working mums, we’ll take anything that works while we’re sleeping.’

Sonia is also a huge fan of the Three Warriors tanning lotion, revealing that it gets her beach ready in ten minutes.

‘I’m not going to the beach unless I have a bit of tan on, as swimsuits are getting smaller, I’m getting bigger, so I need some coverage’ she said. 

‘[Fake] tan makes me feel like I look healthy, and also evens out my skin tone.’

Speaking to Daily Mail Australia recently, Sonia said she swears by rich moisturisers and LED light masks, as well as a good fake tan to give you a year-round glow.

She insists the key to smooth and plump skin is hydration, hydration, hydration.

‘Winter can also be harsh on your skin, hair, and overall beauty routine,’ she said.

‘Incorporate hydrating face masks and LED light masks into your routine once or twice a week to boost moisture levels.’

Sonia uses a humidifier for added moisture in the air of your home, which also helps prevent your skin from drying out.

The mother-of-one also suggests cutting out things that suck moisture from the skin and hair, such as limiting heat styling.  

‘Reduce the use of heat styling tools to prevent further drying out your hair. In the wintertime, experiment with styles and air drying,’ she said.

‘Wash your hair less frequently to retain natural oils and moisture.’

And while she never bakes in the sun, Sonia recommends a year-round glow courtesy of top quality fake tan to make you feel and look good.

Sonia’s go-to fake tan is Three Warriors, an Australian-born product by founder Corbin Halliday.

Halliday’s mission was to reformulate the beauty industry with certified organic, high-performing formulations containing luxe, nutrient-rich ingredients for glowing, radiant skin.

'The best part is, after I take off all my TV make up and I've applied the Radiant Complexion Serum, I know I'm going to wake up with a beautiful glow in the morning' she continued. 'For busy working mums, we'll take anything that works while we're sleeping'

Three Warriors fake tan was created to eliminate the harsh chemicals found in fake tanning products, replacing them with natural ingredients, prioritising health and wellbeing without compromising on colour.

To cut back on makeup on her days off, Sonia opts for a spritz of Three Warriors Face Tan Aqua Mist – an organic water based face tan mist. 

And in the winter months she swears by Three Warriors Gradual Tan, which is loaded with olive oil and is incredibly moisturising.

Sonia’s tips for a perfect fake tan: 

Moisturise and Exfoliate  

‘Keep your skin hydrated by moisturising daily. Pay special attention to dry areas like elbows, knees, and ankles.

‘Before applying your tan, exfoliate your skin to remove dead cells, this helps the tan apply evenly and last longer.’

Pat don’t rub 

‘After showering, pat your skin dry with a towel instead of rubbing, which can cause the tan to fade unevenly.’

Choose carefully 

‘Invest in a high-quality self-tanner that suits your skin type and tone.

Invest in a face-specific tanning mist and apply it every few days to maintain your colour.’

Protect yourself

‘Continue using sunscreen daily, as UV rays can still be harmful in the winter!’
