Martha Stewart has been considered an icon in the home building space for decades, dabbling in a wide variety of businesses from cooking to gardening to creating a line of calming CBD-infused products.

But recently, the entrepreneur's skin has prompted a slew of questions from followers, after the 79-year-old went viral for posting a "thirst trap" from her pool.

"You have some nerve lookin this HOT at 78 years young now lemme get that skin care routine!" one person wrote.

In a recent interview, Stewart told makeup artist Gucci Westman she actually likes to keep her skincare routine fairly simple, with "sprinkles" of Botox injections here and there to reduce wrinkles. Here are her biggest tips.

Stewart washes her face with baby oil on days she wears a lot of makeup

Stewart said one of the steps she finds the most important in her routine is making sure her face is completely stripped of any makeup before bed, especially on days where she has to wear a lot of heavy products for TV.

"My one thing I insist on is a clean face," Stewart said. "I don't go to bed with makeup on. This is a very important thing."

Dermatologists agree with Martha's view on clean skin before bed. According to dermatologist Dr. Eric Schweiger, going to bed with makeup on can lead to acne and premature aging.

"Sleeping in your makeup can result in unnecessary exposure to the free radicals in the environment, which the makeup holds on to," Schweiger told the Huffington Post. "Free radicals cause the breakdown of healthy collagen, which results in fine lines on the skin."

Stewart told Gucci she uses baby oil to remove her makeup or Mario Badescu cream, another dermatologist favorite.

While putting oil on your face might seem like a ticket to pimple-town, using a cleansing oil to remove makeup helps fully break down many hard to remove products like waterproof mascara and long-lasting foundation.

She said she keeps her skin clear by eating clean foods and protecting herself from the sun

After removing her makeup, she cleanses her face and tops it off with her favorite serums, which infuse the skin with vitamin C, CBD, and hydrating agents like hyaluronic acid, as keeping the skin well moisturized is crucial to prevent aging, Insider previously reported.

For an extra boost of moisture, Stewart also likes to start her early mornings by putting on a face mask for an hour.

Stewart said she makes sure to use sunblock every day to prevent aging, as exposure to harsh UV rays can cause premature wrinkles and fine lines.

Aside from her simple skincare routine, Stewart attributes her healthy skin to clean eating and staying out of the sun.
