Nick Jonas on the “Exciting” Skincare Ritual Joe Taught Him
The singer, actor, and father hasn’t always been a skin-care guy.

Cold plunges aren't just for fitness bros and wellness influencers anymore — they've officially entered the grooming mainstream, and Nick Jonas has receipts. According to Vogue, the singer kicks off his morning by submerging his face in icy water using a Face Tub, a container built specifically for facial cold plunges. Credit for the introduction goes, perhaps unsurprisingly, to his brother Joe, who passed the habit along while the brothers were on tour. Nick now calls it "the most exciting part" of his day — which either says a lot about the ritual or raises questions about touring life.
The science-adjacent appeal is real: he cites reduced inflammation, less puffiness, and vagus nerve stimulation as the draw. That last one isn't just wellness speak — activating the vagus nerve through cold exposure does signal the brain to shift into alert mode, making it a genuinely functional wake-up call. For someone navigating the schedule of a father, actor, and recording artist, a five-second face dunk as a reset mechanism tracks.
Grooming as a Family Sport
Nick is candid that skin care wasn't always on his radar — it evolved with age and intention. "General wellness is something everyone should prioritize, just for whatever it is, five to 10 minutes a day," he says, framing it less as a luxury and more as a baseline. The Jonas Brothers, it turns out, have collectively leaned in: Joe has long been diligent about his skin, while Kevin has built out a vitamins-and-supplements regimen. Three grown men openly caring about their skin and discussing it without irony — this is the grooming era we actually want.
His routine closes with fragrance, specifically Louis Vuitton's L'Immensité, applied with what he cheerfully admits is an overzealous hand. He also travels with Diptyque's Baies candle — a cult classic — using scent as an anchor when he's far from home. It's a small, specific detail that lands: the idea that smell is the fastest route back to somewhere familiar, and that building a ritual around it is less indulgent than it sounds.
The real takeaway here isn't which products to buy — it's that a consistent, intentional routine, even a short one, functions as infrastructure for your day, not decoration.
