Canadian actress Elyse Levesque certainly steals the spotlight with her glowing, fresh-faced beauty. After all, a quick glance at the 31-year-old Shoot the Messenger<\/em> leading lady reveals a porcelain complexion and flowing locks. Levesque plays the tenacious and sharp protagonist Daisy Channing on the CBC series, a role which sees her portraying a young journalist researching a murder case.<\/p>\n

Real Style went behind the scenes, and investigated Levesque\u2019s killer beauty for ourselves. From her must-have product picks to her healthy diet tricks, here\u2019s what she had to share about her regimen for staying gorgeous.<\/p>\n

Episode 8 of Shoot the Messenger<\/em> airs tonight at 9 p.m. ET on CBC.<\/p>\n

Real Style: What are your five favourite beauty products?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elyse: <\/strong>I love anything Murad. I own all of their products. They have this Hydro-Dynamic Ultimate Moisture, and I use that all the time. Stila makes this amazing rouge that comes in a compact (Convertible Color) and I\u2019ve only recently found this. I think it\u2019s the best invention of all time. The Clinique Chubby Stick in a Curviest Caramel is my favourite, and I love Fresh\u2019s Black Tea Instant Perfecting Mask.<\/p>\n

Real Style: How do you maintain your fiery red locks? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Elyse: <\/strong>The struggle is real for that. Right now, my hair is a bit darker. I\u2019ve kept it darker for Motive. <\/em>I did that because the red dries out my hair. My hair grows so fast- when I was doing Shoot the Messenger<\/em>, I would have to dye it every two weeks. Hair masks are a big one. The other thing is, living in Los Angeles, to get a really good hair filter. The water there will just destroy your hair.<\/p>\n

Real Style: Describe your skincare regimen.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elyse: <\/strong>I do the morning and night schtick. Most of my products I put on at night, and I use a lot of Dermalogica. If I have a blemish, I\u2019ll put a little bit of cream on it. I use a toner by a French line called Biologique Recherche. It does a good job of helping to balance the skin and fixing any impurities. Then, I do an under eye cream and a lotion. Nothing too complex, every so often I\u2019ll exfoliate. If I can, I try to get a facial once a month.<\/p>\n

Real Style: How do you keep up a healthy diet, despite a busy schedule?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elyse:<\/strong> When I\u2019m working, I find that I\u2019m probably way better fed, because everyone\u2019s always making food for me. I\u2019m a very healthy eater; I eat a lot of vegetables. Not so much on the fruit side, but I love vegetables. I try to eat a pretty healthy diet. My only vice is chips and French fries really.<\/p>\n

Real Style: What is your signature makeup look when you\u2019re off the set?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elyse: <\/strong>I do really simple skin; I don\u2019t do any contouring or anything like that. Even a Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer, something like that which is not too heavy, and sunscreen. When you\u2019re fair and living in California, it\u2019s a necessity. My signature eye that I do is the littlest bit of liner on the outside of both of my eyes and a white or nude colour on the inside. Other than that, just brush out my unruly brows and that\u2019s about it.<\/p>\n
