Sharon Stone soaks her face in ice water when she thinks she looks “awful”.

The 57-year-old actress says knowing that she’s not the only woman who struggles with looking good while working and raising children makes her feel better but that she also has a few tricks to get rid of puffy bags under her eyes.

Speaking to BANG Showbiz at the Restylane Proof in Real Life reveal event in Berlin, she shared: “I know that there are in the world literally millions of other women who feel like I feel. I’m so not the only single working mother or even working mother or working woman who’s just exhausted, and knowing that helps me.

“It’s exhausting and, frankly, what I do is I take a metal bowl and I fill it with ice and I put water in it and I put my face in it. Because I have to put my face on camera and it’s not great when I look awful.”

The ‘Basic Instinct’ star – who has adopted son Roan with ex-husband Phil Bronstein and two more adopted sons Laird and Quinn – also confessed she doesn’t think of herself as being particularly fit and says she’s just lucky to be naturally thin, although she does love working out.

She explained: “I’m just skinny. But I’m not so much in shape … I have a really flat ass.

“But I actually really like to exercise, I just like it. I just love to go to the ‘everybody’ gym, it’s something I enjoy.”

Meanwhile, Sharon – who was also previously married to TV producer Michael Greenburg – insists she doesn’t think a man’s appearance is the most important thing when it comes to dating.

The blonde beauty added: “Not everybody’s attracted to someone because they look like Tom Cruise. Some people are attracted to people because they absolutely don’t look like that.”
