Jennifer Garner believes in healthy beauty

Jennifer Garner is a firm believer in "healthy beauty".

The 'Arthur' actress was recently named as the face of Neutrogena in the UK and revealed she loves the skincare range because she is careful about protecting her face from environmental hazards.

She said: "I've been an ambassador for Neutrogena for a few years in the states and this is my first time in the UK. My family has been using Neutrogena since I was a little kid. I've two sisters, we grew up using Neutrogena and we're big believers in healthy beauty in my family.

"I'm a huge fan of anti-oxidants and every woman out there should be! Most of the damage that happens to your skin is from environmental pollutants-the sun, the wind, pollution, indoor heating. Your skin is the first line of defence and you have to take care of it"

The new multi defence range includes a Daily Moisturiser which contains SPF25, along with a Gentle Purifying Scrub, a Night Moisturiser, Gentle Purifying Wipes and two other Daily Moisturisers with SPF15.

It was previously revealed Jennifer and her 'Arthur' co-star Russell Brand spent their time on set swapping beauty tips.

A source said: "Russell offered Jennifer his favourite nail polish shade, OPI's Lincoln Park After Dark and kindly bought her a bottle. Another day they were chatting about shampoos and apparently Jennifer suggested Russell cut off his long wavy locks before his wedding day to Katy Perry, so he could 'Look back on the pictures later and not cringe.'
