Tracee Ellis Ross rocked a fresh-faced look while enjoying the beach alongside her family.

The actress shared a carousel on Instagram which featured herself and a family member laying on a towel on the sand, as their hands embraced their faces and showcased a warm and inviting smile.

Tracee was glowing in the photo as she smiled from ear-to-ear and flaunted her radiant skin and curly hair. She captioned the post: "MARCH MADNESS...apparently it continues into April."

Her carousel featured a plethora of touching family selfies and videos that emphasize just how much relationships mean to Tracee.

One person commented: "You're Giving LOVE in A Family Dose." Another fan continued: "Filled with love and friendship!"

Skincare journey

It comes as no surprise that Tracee loves her own glowy skin as well. She shared with The Glow Memo: "I like my skin best when it's clean and glowy, and that comes from sleep, hydration and happiness."

The actress loves the trial and error that comes with finding the perfect products and tools for your skin. She revealed: "I try every beauty tool, toy, trick, vibrating ball, mask, roller thing."

At the end of the day it comes down to skin health as the priority. Tracee said: "Some people spend time putting on makeup. I spend time hydrating my skin."

She continued: "Oh, my skincare routine is extensive. I just want to have life in my face! Yes, it's insane. But you know what? I think it's working."

Her beauty routine

As soon as Tracee gets out of the shower, she applies a toner to her face. Tracee begins her day with a cleanser, and she added: "Sometimes I use a scrub brush with that, but I really massage it into my skin." 

Then she spends "about three minutes" using her gua sha. She then washes off her cleanser using a warm washcloth and she puts a combination of two serums on her face.

Next, she takes her cryo-sticks out of the fridge and massages her face for "about two minutes" with them.

Last but not least, she uses a moisturizer and she proudly stated: "I like [moisturizers] a lot because again, hydration, hydration, hydration. I like to heat cream up in my hands and then get in there."

She adds a second layer of moisturizer "along with the four layers [she's] already put on." At the end of her skincare routine she proudly announced: "Look at how those cheeks are already coming up. Come on, who needs makeup?"
