"Kelly Ripa is just saying it like it is. The Live! with Kelly and Michael co-host had no qualms about revealing her top beauty secrets when a viewer called in to Watch What Happens Live on Tuesday, July 15.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Beauty products&amp;#x2014;Botox. And that&amp;apos;s pretty much it,&amp;quot; the 43-year-old told host Andy Cohen and fellow guest Anderson Cooper. &amp;quot;People are very ritualistic about their beauty routine. I am not.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m not advocating one way or the other but I&amp;apos;m just saying Botox has changed my life. It&amp;apos;s cut my getting ready time in half,&amp;quot; she continued.\r\n\r\nCohen, seemingly taken aback by her honesty, asked her to explain further. &amp;quot;Because suddenly my eyelids are no longer resting on my eyelashes,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;I think the key with anything is knowing what you look like and being a minimalist.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nBotox has been a friend of the 5&amp;apos; 3&amp;quot; star for some time now. Last February, she admitted to using Botox on her eyes and armpits in Elle magazine. &amp;quot;Every seven months or so my eyelid skin rests on my eyelashes. So I feel like it makes my makeup artist&amp;apos;s life easier, and it makes my eyes look a little more open on TV, which is where I happen to work right now,&amp;quot; she explained."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
