Molly Sims' Shocking Sleep Secret: Wake Up Looking RESTED!

Molly Sims' Shocking Sleep Secret: Wake Up Looking RESTED!
Lifestyle 31 January 2026

Molly Sims, the ever-radiant host of the "Lipstick on the Rim" podcast, recently let us in on a little secret: looking well-rested isn't always about actually being well-rested. Turns out, even celebrities struggle with the elusive eight hours of sleep! She shared her go-to tips with ET, revealing how she manages to maintain that signature glow despite a schedule that sounds… well, exhausting. And let's be honest, who among us *doesn't* need a little help faking a good night's sleep now and then?

Molly Sims' Shocking Sleep Secret: Wake Up Looking...

“On a good night, I get maybe six or so hours of sleep, but usually it’s somewhere between not enough and barely made it,” Sims admitted. This is where her nighttime rituals come in. She relies heavily on essential oils from Saje Wellness, specifically Stress Relief and Peppermint Halo, to help her unwind and find a little zen amidst the chaos. I can personally vouch for the power of a good essential oil blend – it really can make a difference when you're trying to shut down your brain for the night. She also alternates between Moon Juice's magnesium and Sakara Night Service, both designed to promote relaxation and better sleep quality.

Next up: skincare. And of course, Sims is a big believer in her own YSE Beauty line. "The Problem Solver is a gentle, yet effective correcting cream that helps reduce the appearance of dark spots and discoloration," she explained. "I always finish with our Xtremely Rich Moisturizer because protecting your skin barrier while you sleep is key." It's a smart move – a good moisturizer is essential, especially if you’re skimping on sleep, because your skin definitely shows it. A dehydrated complexion is a dead giveaway of a late night.

But how does she actually *get* out of bed and face the day? "I just look at my kids' calendar and that alone is a shot of adrenaline," she joked. "Between school events, birthday parties, practices, and tournaments, their schedules are packed. One glance and I'm immediately reminded, 'You're not allowed to be tired.'" I mean, who can't relate to that? The demands of modern life, especially parenthood, often leave little room for adequate rest.

So, what's her secret weapon for looking bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, even when she's running on fumes? Eye cream, of course! Sims swears by her Wide Awake eye cream in Sheer Peach and Sheer Honey. "It instantly brightens and depuffs, while quietly working in the background to improve your skin over time," she said. "I'll gladly take 10 hours of sleep in a tube. It's almost as exciting as that first cup of coffee, and I always have it in my purse for SOS moments when I need an espresso shot to the eye." Honestly, that sounds pretty genius. I'm adding that to my shopping list immediately.

Finally, she completes her routine with her Your Favorite Ex Pads, the Morning Cocktail Vitamin C Serum, and the Skin Glow. Hydration is paramount, too. "Every morning, I make what I call Dria Water, a mixed drink of creatine, Vitamin C, colostrum, and electrolytes. I adopted it from my friend Dria Murphy, and it keeps me going all day." So, there you have it – Molly Sims' recipe for faking a good night's sleep. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go research colostrum...
