SkinCare: Kate Walsh Stocks on How Her Pores and skin-Care Regimen Shifted at 50

Kate Walsh has played in many memorable roles, Dr. Addison Montgomery in Grey’s Anatomy (with fingers crossed that she will make a surprise appearance again… and again), and her latest, Emily in Paris playing the American PR Agency executive. With Walsh’s new role as an ambassador at Crepe Erase, art is resembling real life. “I had seen Jane Seymour in the informercials and have admired her years,” she shares with us. “When the Crepe Release reached out, I told them I do not need these products, but then one day I did! The products worked within a few weeks. I was hooked.”

Crepe Erase is a three-step essential system designed to address creepiness on the body and neck. As we age, skin becomes thinner and losses its ability to retain moisture from diminishing elastin and collagen levels, resulting in crepey-looking skin. A combination of photonutrients, peptides and encapsulated retinol are the front-running actives in Crepe Erase to help support collagen and elastin production and structural resilience for visibly firmer, smoother, healthier skin. 

Walsh opened up about how her skin changed when she turned 50. Her secrets? Showers ending in 60 seconds of cold water, meditation, sleep and of course Crepe Erase. With her travel schedule, sleep would seem to be a challenge. “Nature is my great elixir. It is my connecting force. When I feel jet lagged, I walk to reset my external clock,” she says.

The entertainment industry is notoriously challenging and competitive yet Walsh has always seemed to take it in stride. “The best advice I was given was to make a list of 20 things that bring you great joy. Break it down and do five things every day to change your frame of mind.” On Walsh’s bucket list this summer: Travel to Europe, more time with friends and family and getting back to her animals in Australia.” 

A vacation in Australia quickly developed from a long-term stay to an offer on a home. Now, when not shooting films, Walsh spends her time Down Under. When Covid numbers started to spike in early 2020 and Australia went into lockdown she decided to make a permanent home in Perth, living a picturesque life letting the weather dictate her daily agenda between the beach, the farm or swim.
