Did Eva Longoria have plastic surgery?
Eva is the owner of a beautiful face and body shape. She has beautiful breasts, buttocks, velvety skin, beautiful eyes, a small elegant nose, and plump lips. Why would she change anything? The star of “Desperate Housewives” admits that he is a little afraid of wrinkles, but until they appear, he does not even think about injections and plastic surgery.
But in order to have a great Hollywood smile, the actress had to work on her teeth. Eva Longoria wore braces and installed veneers.
Eva Longoria is a big fan of black smokey ice, behind which the true shape of the actress’ eyes is not visible. At all events, Eva is so carefully “plastered” that a layer of cosmetics resembles a dense mask. And this despite the fact that Longoria is an attractive woman! It would be better to take an example from the stars, who make do with a minimum of cosmetics.
Diet and exercise
Despite the busy work schedule, the actress manages to keep track of the figure. Eva trains regularly and posts videos of her exercises on Instagram.
In 2018, Eva became a mom for the first time and gave up heavy loads for a while. “My body created a new life, so I didn’t try to get back in shape at any cost,” she says in an interview. But the actress could not hold out without sports for a long time and soon returned to the usual fitness training.

Eva herself admits that she prefers variety in training. In addition to strength exercises, she does not give up cardio training, yoga, running, Pilates.
“I do a lot of things and constantly alternate between different types of loads,” the actress notes.
Homemade food and no restrictions!
Surprisingly, Longoria does not adhere to any particular diet and does not refuse certain foods. In her diet, you can find absolutely any food, including those that fall out of the category of “healthy eating”. For example, the actress could never completely give up alcohol.
I “drink” my calories, not “eat”. Every time I go for a run, when I see how many calories I’ve burned, I think: well, that’s about two glasses of wine.
Eva loves cooking and is always willing to experiment in the kitchen. The only rule is no guilt.
The only thing that is not often found in the diet of Longoria is sweet. The actress does not particularly like desserts – simply because she prefers to snack on something salty. And between a cake and a glass of beer, he will invariably choose the second. “This is one of my favorite ways to relax after a hard day’s work,” Eva admits.
Longoria’s experience proves once again that there is no universal “beauty recipe” that would work equally effectively for everyone. Everyone finds their own comfortable training schedule and selects a nutrition plan that suits them.
“Everyone thinks that there is some secret that helps to look good. But there is no secret, in fact, there is only nutrition, training, and commitment to your goal,” the actress assures.
