What is your morning beauty routine? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I start every morning with a few minutes of Vedic mediation and a quick, 2-minute spritz in the shower. I\u2019m a morning person, but I don\u2019t ever feel completely awake and ready to go unless I get in the shower for a minute or two. I do a thorough face cleanse in the evening, so in the morning I just rinse my face and eyes while in the shower and let my skin get moist and damp before applying any products. My skincare regimen has organically become more minimal over the years as I learned through trial and error what my skin personally responds to best. The first product I apply is a hydrosol. As a skincare formulator, I usually have an organic rose or other floral water on-hand that I\u2019m testing as an ingredient for future offerings, but I love May Lindstrom\u2019s Jasmine Garden<\/a> and lately I find myself reaching for Tower 28\u2019s SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray<\/a> which has been very soothing for irritated skin from mask wearing. I follow the facial mist with Cosmic Glow Oil<\/a>, applying through a press and pat method, which I let sink in before applying my last step of sunscreen. Most days I use Josh Rosebrook\u2019s Nutrient Day Cream SPF 30<\/a>, but if I\u2019m not going outside I skip this step (please don\u2019t tell any of my facialist friends). Megababe’s Soapy Pits<\/a> is my all-time favorite deodorant and Sigil Scent\u2019s Prima Materia<\/a> is my fragrance of choice lately, it\u2019s so special. I have never really worn a lot of makeup, usually just some mascara, under eye concealer, and maybe some cream blush, but since COVID I haven\u2019t really been wearing any. Not because I don\u2019t enjoy it, but because I was noticing makeup was not ideal for my skin under a mask. <\/p>\n

What products to keep on you to use throughout the day?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lip balm, always and forever. Right now I\u2019m rotating between Beneath Your Mask\u2019s Remedy<\/a>, Haoma\u2019s Lip Balm<\/a>, or Tower 28\u2019s ShineOn Lip Jelly in Chill<\/a> if I\u2019m feeling frisky. Hand sanitizer and hand cream are also in every bag. Beneath Your Mask has an incredible cream called Heal Whipped Skin Souffl\u00e9.<\/a> I discovered this cream after asking a hand model with the most beautiful hands and cuticles I have ever seen what she used and this was the brand!<\/p>\n

What is your evening beauty routine? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I definitely spend more time on my routine at night, where it can feel like more of a ritual or even a meditation, and my regimen will vary slightly depending on how on my skin feels. I take a longer shower in the evening and always double cleanse my face in the shower. I\u2019ll usually start with an oil cleanse, using something I put together from my own stock of ingredients (typically jojoba-based). I also take this opportunity to freestyle massaging my face simultaneously with the oil, replicating techniques I\u2019ve experienced in facial treatments or see from estheticians on instagram. After gently removing the oil cleanser with a hot washcloth (which also acts as an exfoliant), I\u2019ll do a second foaming cleanse to remove any remaining residue, for this I love Farmaesthetics Fine Herbal Cleanser<\/a>. I have also recently been switching it up from this method and alternating with Klur\u2019s Gentle Matter and Skin Soil<\/a> cleansing system. Klur<\/a> is such a beautiful brand, and Lesley the founder is so lovely and a brilliant formulator, these are two of my favorite new to me products of 2020. Once I\u2019m out of the shower, I follow the same routine as the morning with the exception of sunscreen. In the evening, I might also use a gua sha stone with Cosmic Glow<\/a>, which feels so relaxing before bed. Lately once a week I\u2019ve been doing a powder face mask, I absolutely love Golde\u2019s Clean Greens<\/a> which I\u2019ll leave on for 10 minutes before rinsing off and applying face mist and oil. I wash my hair twice a week with Act+Acre<\/a> and usually air dry, but I am also obsessed with my most extravagant purchase this year, the Dyson Airwrap<\/a>. I don\u2019t know what kind of magic vacuum elves live in this device, but it changed my life. Starting and self-funding a business has not left me with a tremendous amount of discretionary spending money, but this thing was worth every penny. Quick salon quality blowouts, with minimal heat has been an utter game changer.<\/p>\n

When do you feel most beautiful?<\/strong><\/p>\n

After a very solid night\u2019s rest, or after a day at the beach relaxing with my husband on vacation.<\/p>\n

How do you define beauty?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Beauty to me is kindness, kindness towards yourself and the kindness you project onto everyone who comes into your personal orbit. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
