Hayek has been steaming onto the silver screen for nearly 30 years, though you’d never know it by looking Magic Mike’s Last Dance. But there is no magic behind her flawless complexion, only the bark of a tree.
“I use an ingredient called Tepezcohuite that is used in Mexico for burn victims because it completely regenerates the skin,” Hayek told me. Elle magazine. “Some of the ingredients, when I brought them to the US labs, they said, ‘Oh, my God! How come no one is using this?’ That’s why I don’t have Botox, no peels, no fillings.”
The Tepezcohuite tree is often referred to as the “Mexican skin tree” because its bark is known to help regenerate skin and hair. As proof of that, it was used to treat hundreds of thousands of burn victims in an earthquake and a gas explosion in Mexico in the 1980s when medical supplies were not available.

“I spent quite a few hours in the sun and was missing a strip of skin near my hairline,” one rave reviewer shared. “I had such a terrible sunburn that I was in severe pain and blistering.
