Calling all Sex and the City fans! Sarah Jessica Parker has spilled the beans on her skincare secrets, and guess what? They won't break the bank.
The style icon and star of And Just Like That… dished out her beauty essentials during a chat with skincare expert Caroline Hirons. Currently dazzling audiences in London's West End with her husband Matthew Broderick in the play Plaza Suite, SJP revealed she swears by E45 Face Foaming Cleanser for wiping away the day's grime.
Sarah Jessica says she pops into Boots to snag her skincare staples while she's in the UK, where it retails for £9.99. But hold onto your Manolos, as it's currently up for grabs on Amazon at a steal for only £5.47.

E45 Face Foaming Cleanser, £5.47 from Amazon
"E45 has a nice face foaming facial cleanser, I love E45," the fashion-forward actress revealed on the YouTube video.
Ideal for those battling dryness, sensitivity, or eczema, this mild E45 formula banishes dirt without being harsh on your skin's barrier. It's soap-free, fragrance-free and dermatologist-approved to boot, reports the Mirror.
Not just a hit with the celeb circuit, this cleanser has also garnered top marks from everyday beauty lovers.
"Very good cleanser for dry skin, with occasional eczema patches on chin and cheeks," a satisfied customer praised on the Boots website. "Soothed my skin without drying it out."
Another glowing review on Amazon said: "I love this cleanser, it's really gentle and removes make-up, my skin feels great after use. Very good value will definitely buy again," echoing the sentiments of countless other five-star feedbacks.

However, if you're a fan of heavy make-up or in need of a deep cleanse, this customer suggests you might need something a bit more potent: "Easy to use with the pump but the foam doesn't seem to give the deepest clean compared to other face washes. It's not bad, but I don't feel like it makes much difference." We're big fans of CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser with Salicylic Acid, £14.
Sarah Jessica Parker's skincare routine also features products from RoC, a brand she's an ambassador for.
"RoC Hydrate + Plump Daily Moisturiser is a skincare essential for me, it's brilliant," she shares with Caroline. "We use it for touch-ups after lunch on films and TV because it helps to freshen up, and has a good amount of shine that allows the skin to have some reflection points." It usually retails at £27.99 but is currently reduced to £18.66 at Boots.

"Another must-have for me is RoC Retinol Correxion Max Hydration Cream [was £34.99, now £23.32], which I use every single night, as does my mother!"
