It's safe to say if you're going to be stranded with someone in the midst of a global pandemic, Kate Hudson is your hands down best bet.  The Hollywood icon, who was just 19 when she met Gucci on the set of her first Vogue cover for Almost Famous, has a charismatic energy that lights up the room and comedic timing that's hard to resist. In today's Season 1 finale of "Makeup & Friends," Hudson brings the Hollywood magic—delivering legitimately great beauty secrets, workout wisdom, and #stayathome realness with the kind of laugh-out-loud wit that makes her feel like an extremely funny friend who just happens to be flashing washboard abs and wearing blush pink-and-magenta spandex. 

 

It's no coincidence that Hudson, now 41, credits her famously healthy glow and contagiously upbeat energy to a lifetime spent finding the right balance of exercise, clean eating, and "take the day off" moderation for her body. In 2013, she co-founded Fabletics, the stylish and affordable athleisure wear label that has since grown into a 300 million dollar-plus fitness phenomenon.

 

As for that "wellness martini" she's whipping up five minutes into today's video? Just last week, Hudson launched In Bloom, her new brand line of plant-based nutritional powder supplements. The range of six targeted beauty and health blends, which readily absorb into the gut to boost everything from brain function to sleep quality, are packed with vitamins, minerals, adaptogens, and holistic herbs derived from whole foods. 

 

In fact, the all-natural juicy flavor of In Bloom's Beauty blend is the X-factor in Hudson's impromptu vodka cocktail, which makes its on-screen debut between cameos from her adorable 2-year old daughter, a favorite tomato red lip palette, and a jaw-dropping set of abs. The bottom line: You don't want to miss it. Watch the full episode now!
