Still, both icons have the same philosophy when it comes to beauty: skin first.“Pat and I are sticklers about not having the skin look too dry or too matte,” Campbell says, explaining that they prefer face products that melt into the skin, rather than sit on top of it, for the perfect “your skin but better” finish.As for the best tip McGrath has shared over the course of their 25-year friendship? Campbell says, “If you don’t know what to do with your eyebrows, leave them alone!”
