    Would you try it?

    Meghan Markle is one of the most talked-about people in the world, with the now Duchess of Sussex welcoming her first child, Archie Harrison, just last month.

    From her fashion influence to her statement about pet adoption, she never fails to make news, with her healthy lifestyle being the topic of choice this week.

    Yes, Meghan is known to be a bit of a health-nut, championing the effects of yoga, running and a Whole Foods balanced diet - she even had a lifestyle blog dedicated to healthy living, The Tig.

    But this week it emerged that there is one health ritual that Meghan does every week, and it’s very millennial.

    And it certainly seems to be working - have you seen Meghan’s skin??

    Meghan also went on in the interview with The Chalkboard to talk supplements, with the former Suits actress explaining her favourites. ‘Magnesium, B-12 drops, multivitamin, and Cortisol Manager before bed,’ she explained, before adding: ‘Sometimes ashwagandha makes it into the mix too!’

    There we have it, the secrets to Meghan Markle’s skin - supplements and infrared saunas.
