Did you know that the glow that Nia Long is famous for could be yours for under $10? Valentine's Day is in 6 days and I'm sure you have an idea of what you're going to wear, right? Well, I've said this before but I honestly believe your skin is the best accessory that you have. Treat yourself to a bottle of Aura Glow from Heritage Products. This almond-scented oil is available at stores such as GNC, AmericaRx and Drugstore.com. You can snag it for $8.79!
"The key to having great brown skin is to keep it super-duper moisturized. I go to bed greasy. I use a product from a line at Whole Foods, but it’s not expensive. It’s called Aura Glow from Heritage products. They have almond scented oil. I use it every day and my son uses it as well. It’s a staple in our house. I put it on in the shower while my brown skin is still wet."

Long likes to use a vitamin C-based moisturizer when the weather is warm. She said that she gets hers from her facialist, Matty Solomon of Matty's European Skincare Salon and Cosmetics. Matty has a vitamin C treatment - Matty "Purely C", $75 - that repairs visible signs of aging and sun damage. It is their number one bestseller.
As for the Eucalpytus Herbal Bath Oil, Long credits steaming as "the secret" as to why her brown skin has a youthful glow. "It really does keep you moisturized. At home, inside my steam shower, I add eucalpytus oil and it opens everything up."
Beauty bonus: Celebrity hairstylist Andrea Wilson shared some of the products she has used on Long's hair:
Her skin always looks gorgeous, but oils for the skin scare me. I break out so easily with some oils/oil based products.
