Lea Michele took a break from boyfriends Mathew Paetz and Cory Monteith talk to chat about her personal life when it comes to inspirations, beauty and health. The "Brunette Ambition" author recently spoke with Organic Spa magazine about life.

When speaking about who inspires her personally the "Glee" season 6 cast member said, "My mother inspires me personally every day. She is so beautiful inside and out."

However, professional wise she said, "Professionally, there are so many people I look up to. I believe personal and professional role models are very important and always keep you inspired.

"I love Barbra [Streisand]! I also love Jennifer Lawrence. I think she's an amazing actress and a very strong and outspoken women. Those are the kind of women who I admire so much."

It's no secret that Michele has grown into a beautiful and confident woman however, she revealed that it took some time to get to that place.

When it came to skin care, the "Louder" singer said, "It's not something that happens overnight. Although I'm grateful that I was raised to be happy in my own skin, it's not always easy.

"Sometimes what you hear and think you need to be can start to be that little annoying voice in your head. But I think taking great care of yourself and being kind to your heart and body is a good place to start.

"And always surrounding yourself with people who uplift you. Remember it starts inside; to feel truly beautiful you have to love yourself inside and out."

Lea Michele revealed that in order to keep her skin in check she goes to see a dermatologist. She explained, "I have a great dermatologist, Dr . Howe in New York City, who saved my skin when I was a teenager.

"Since then I always take the best care of my skin: staying hydrated, using good products, eating right, making sure to give it time to breathe."
