Jonathan Bailey shares his down-to-earth beauty ro…
Jonathan Bailey may be one of Hollywood’s biggest stars, but his approach to grooming is surprisingly simple. The Bridgerton actor has revealed that he does not rely on an elaborate skincare routine to maintain his appearance.
The 38-year-old British actor, who was named PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive in 2025, recently discussed his approach to self-care while promoting Giorgio Armani’s new men’s fragrance, I Will. Rather than listing a long collection of beauty products, Bailey highlighted a few everyday habits that help him feel his best.
For the actor, staying hydrated, getting enough sleep and protecting his skin with SPF are key parts of his routine. He has also spoken about spending time outdoors and walking whenever possible, describing it as an important form of wellbeing. (People.com)
Keeping skincare simple
Bailey’s routine reflects his relaxed attitude toward grooming. Instead of suggesting that looking after your skin requires countless products, he focuses on basic habits that fit naturally into his lifestyle.
Sleep and hydration are particularly important to his daily routine. He has also emphasized the importance of SPF, making sun protection one of the straightforward steps he does not overlook.
His approach comes as skincare has become an increasingly important part of modern grooming. Experts generally recommend keeping routines practical and consistent rather than overwhelming the skin with unnecessary products. (GQ)
His dog Benson is part of the routine
Bailey’s idea of self-care extends beyond skincare. He also enjoys spending time outside with his aging cockapoo, Benson.
Walking has become one of his favorite ways to create space during a busy day. In a recent interview, Bailey explained that he will sometimes leave earlier simply so he can walk to a meeting. He sees that time outdoors as an opportunity to slow down and reflect.
The actor has also mentioned drinking plenty of water and even enjoying cold-water swimming as part of his wellbeing habits. (Esquire)
A busy year ahead
While Bailey has kept 2026 relatively selective, his career remains busy. Following his success in Wicked: For Good and Jurassic World: Rebirth, he has several major projects lined up.
He is set to appear in the upcoming films Monsanto and Pumping Black. He is also preparing to return to the West End stage in a revival of Sunday in the Park with George in 2027. (GQ)
For Bailey, however, looking after himself does not seem to require an overly complicated formula. Good sleep, plenty of water, time outdoors and daily sun protection remain at the heart of his refreshingly down-to-earth approach.
