Hi I'm Ginnifer Goodwin and I'm here to kick off the Listerine 21 day
challenge. Yesterday I swished Listerine Ultra Clean Antiseptic on the Red Carpet we are
calling it the $21,000 swish because for that swish Listerine has donated $21,000 to oral
healthcare. I am trying to get people to join me in a commitment to swish for 21 days; it
takes 21 days to form a habit. And to commit all you have to do is go to Facebook.com/Listerine
and for everyone who signs up Listerine will donate, will further contribute to Smiles
Across America a division of Oral Health America that brings oral healthcare to children in
need. Oral disease is the number one chronic illness among children. There are children
all across America who don't get any dental care they don't have toothbrushes they
cant sleep they cant eat they are not going to school and This is something that we need
to bring attention to. There is something we can do to help. There are all types of
things I've been learning recently about oral health. I had no idea that by brushing
alone you are missing 75 percent of your mouth. I had no idea that there are more germs in
your mouth than there are people on the planet, that nearly half adults have gum disease and
don't even know it. And all you have to do is switch with Listerine Ultraclean Antiseptic
and you can improve gum health by up to fives times in two weeks, by up to 9 times in 4
weeks and virtually clean 100% of your mouth. What else am I up to? I am filming Once Upon
a Time in Vancouver, Canada. It takes us nine months to create a season. Right now we\'92re
about three fourths of the way through season two. And I am horseback riding through the
woods in ball gowns shooting bows and arrows playing with Cinderella, Little Red Riding
Hood, learning about things like the death of Snow White's mother who may or may not
have been murdered. Um I am uh exploring the conflict between Snow White and Prince Charming.
Prince Charming wants to go back to Fairytale Land Snow White wants to stay in Storybooke,
Maine. We have a lot of juicy things in store this season. Some of my biggest beauty secrets
are are I guess kind of commonsense things that grandmother taught me. I get a lot of
sleep, I drink a lot of water, I don't over wash my face and I don't pick at anything.
Um right now I'm watching my face with organic extra *** coconut oil, which is
something everybody can do. I have jars of it all over my house you can use it for everything.
Um I would say that those are my biggest beauty secrets. I make my own shampoo though it doesn't
smell very good and that is something that I'm working on. Fashion wise I believe
in tailoring all of my clothes, I think everyone should tailor their clothes. No item of clothing
you buy off a rack is made to fit any one persons body. And I would say I live by all
of those things. I think it is very important to invest in a very good haircut no matter
what haircut it is. And I love having short hair, I'm exceptionally lazy. I don't
like spending a lot of time fussing about with longer hair um I and and this is very
me I embrace my cowlicks I have a straightening iron ultimately I spend about two minutes
in the morning styling it. It's a blessed haircut.
In my spare time I play with my friends a
lot. We go to Disney Land a lot. We sit in front of the fireplace. We play games. I love
embroidering, I love reading I love watching old movies. I'm obsessed with the TV series
Downton Abbey. Um I I play a lot with my friends in Vancouver when we're not working we
do things like go to ballet classes, and Pilate classes, or take walks. If I weren't acting
I would want to be an astronaut but I was not very good at science so it is unlikely
that I would have been a very good astronaut. Um I would say realistically what I would
have wanted to do would probably be some kind of editor. I would have liked to be some kind
of some kind of book editor. Oh my gosh. I don't know, I don't know what is to
be expected of the future. I'm going to continue to work on Once Upon a Time for as
long as we can stay on the air. Um I am going to continue to try to make movies when I find
things that speak to me as much as Once Upon a Time has and uh otherwise I will keep trying
to find causes that are close to my heart and uh get the word out. For more info you
