On the evening of 18/7, the 59-year-old actress shared her evening routine in a video, explaining how these small rituals help her unwind after a long day and promote restful sleep. Following the advice of an expert, Lau uses aromatherapy with a diffuser, changing the essential oil scents daily to suit her mood. She then brushes her hair hundreds of times in different directions.
According to Lau, hair brushing stimulates blood circulation, relaxes the scalp, and improves sleep quality. When she doesn't have work commitments, she aims for 10 hours of sleep each night. Lau maintains her long, dark, and sleek hair without using dyes.
Before these steps, Lau meticulously cares for her skin. No matter how tired or sleep-deprived she is, she always removes her makeup thoroughly, ensuring her skin is clean and unclogged to prevent dullness and darkening over time.
She begins by washing her hands and cleansing her eye area. Her skincare routine involves applying serum, oil, and cream, incorporating massage into each step. She uses separate products for her eyes, face, and neck.

The video of her routine attracted thousands of comments, with many viewers impressed by her beauty, calmness, and vitality. Fans commented: "I'm only 30, but I'm afraid to brush my hair because I lose so much every time", "You look so relaxed and truly love yourself", and "It feels like she lives in a peaceful oasis".
Lau entered the entertainment industry in 1990 and gained recognition for her role in TVB's 1995 adaptation of "The Return of the Condor Heroes". She has also starred in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", "The Yang's Saga", and "Wudang". This year, she produced and starred in the short film "Sunset Rose". According to Sohu, Lau remains active in fashion, television shows, livestreaming, and endorsements, with a busy schedule of public appearances.
The actress is currently single. She has tried blind dates arranged by friends but hasn't found the right person yet. However, this doesn't affect Lau's positive outlook and enjoyment of life. She prioritizes self-care and, as she approaches 60, feels confident in her appearance, physical health, and mental well-being.
