No one can deny the joy in discovering celebrities are just as weird as we are. Sure, they have glam squads and millions of followers on Instagram, but there’s something high-key satisfying when we’re reminded that they’re actual humans and use the same products and beauty hacks as we do. Last week, we finally felt on par with Shay Mitchell when she went into depth about her pore strip obsession, but today, the 30-year old got even realer when she revealed she uses a freaking vegetable to tint her lips.

Yup, no luxe lipsticks or fancy-ass glosses for Mitchell—the “Pretty Little Liars” actress told Insider that she uses raw, cut-up beats for a natural, flushed color on her lips. Mitchell eats beets raw or roasted, but with leftovers, the actress takes natural beauty to a new level. “I’ll rub them on my lips if I want to have a natural rosy tint for the whole day, because it does really last,” she explains. “So yeah, you’re almost tinting your lips using a raw beet.”
Anyone whose chopped into a beet has definitely noticed how pigmented the vegetable is, so it actually makes sense that Mitchell incorporates it into her makeup regimen. The hack is literally as natural as it can get, and Joshua Zeichner, the director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, says the process is completely harmless. “Colored fruits and vegetables can temporarily stain the outer skin layers,” he explains.
Welp, if it gives us a fighting chance at looking as good as Shay Mitchell, maybe we’ll dab a few beets over our lips at lunch today—as un-sexy as that image may be.
