We love when a husband and wife duo are able to creatively work together and create something special. Such is the case for Garrett and Hillary Markenson, the minds behind REVERIE<\/a>. They set out to create multi-hyphenate products designed for your multi-dimensional lifestyle, which can explicity be seen in their cult product, MILK<\/a>. We chatted with them about how they both streamline and maximize their beauty routines. <\/p>\n Hillary Markenson, President of REVERIE:<\/strong><\/p>\n What is your morning beauty routine? <\/strong> What products do you use throughout the day and why? <\/strong> What is your evening beauty routine? <\/strong> What is your definition of beauty? <\/strong> Garrett Markenson, Hair Stylist & Founder of REVERIE:<\/strong><\/p>\n What is your morning beauty routine? <\/strong> What products do you use throughout the day and why?<\/strong>
\nI\u2019m not a very rigid person when it comes to having a routine so every day looks a bit different as far as the order and products. Really depends on my mood. I open all the blinds to get sunlight first thing and generally try to have 30oz of water before I have coffee to wake my body up and get in 1\/3 of my daily water intake right off the bat. Some mornings if time (and my 4 year old) permits, I\u2019ll use our infrared sauna for 30-45 mins and try to sneak in some reading. We bought the sauna as a 5 year anniversary present for ourselves which has been amazing. I only wash my hair every 3 days, if it’s wash day I do an overnight oil treatment with REVERIE’s Ever Recovery Hair Oil<\/a> then cleanse using REVERIE Shampoo<\/a> followed with Cake Restorative Scalp Tonic<\/a>, Milk Anti-Frizz Leave-in Treatment<\/a> and Mare Mediterranean Sea Mist<\/a> then let my hair air dry. If it’s not a wash day I brush for a minute or so with my Koh-I-Noor boar bristle brush and follow-up with a bit of Milk + Mare to refresh my style. Depending on what my skin is needing I either wash with H is for Love Rapha oil cleanser<\/a> or Alpyn Beauty<\/a>, followed up with MAKE Beauty Essence<\/a> and Le Prunier face oil<\/a>. In the drier months I use a heavy cream moisturizer. Post-Shower I use Necessaire Body Serum<\/a> and Body Oil<\/a> to keep my skin moisturized. Since dialing into my skincare products and getting my brows microbladed, I wear Ilia mascara<\/a>, but that’s it for makeup unless I\u2019m going to an event or something.<\/p>\n
\nWeleda superfood hand cream<\/a> because it’s the only thing that helps to combat dryness for me and MAKE Beauty Serum Balm in Sun Flare<\/a> – it’s the perfect hint of color and truly keeps lips hydrated without any stickiness. <\/p>\n
\nThis is where I really lean into my skin and haircare rituals since I have more time once my son heads to bed. I LOVE a super hot epsom salt bath to end my day, paired with a face mask 2-3x per week and an oil treatment or hair mask. My current favs are H is for Love Propolis<\/a>, Mara Detox Clay Mask<\/a> or Biologique Recherche Creme Masque Vernix<\/a> (this one I leave on overnight). For hair I use Ever Recovery Oil<\/a> or a product we\u2019ve been developing for Reverie that I\u2019m testing. If I don\u2019t have a treatment in, I spend a minute loving on my strands with my boar bristle brush to work down my natural oils and move debris off the scalp – this ensures that I wake up with manageable, oftentimes super voluminous hair. My chiropractor recommended a nightly stretching to combat the effects of working at a computer all day on my back and neck which usually takes 15 minutes. If I try to make things too complex I get overwhelmed and find it hard to stick to anything, pairing down and focusing on what makes me feel best has been the key to staying consistent. <\/p>\n
\nFor me, beauty is more of a feeling, an attitude, than an outward appearance. It\u2019s being secure in who you are as a person and your purpose. It’s kindness, fresh bouquets of flowers, my child laughing, a good book next to the fire. Beauty is in everyone and everything, you just have to be willing to see it.<\/p>\n
\nI prefer to start my day with jumping in the shower and grabbing REVERIE Suna Exfoliating Shampoo<\/a> to give my scalp a refresh, the massaging elements of the exfoliating shampoo are a nice way to start off the day and it’s the perfect stimulating experience to kick start the morning. From there, I apply Aesops’s Oil Cleanser<\/a> and Ayond’s Taos Blue Day Cream<\/a> to my face, N\u00e9cessaire The Deodorant Gel<\/a> for body, and for hair, REVERIE’s Cake Scalp Tonic<\/a> and RAKE Styling Balm<\/a> to finish off my everyday-look.<\/p>\n
\nThroughout the day I’ll apply REVERIE Milk to tame or simply readjust my hair as well as GOLDA Hiba Wood Atmosphere Mist<\/a> – I’m obsessed with spraying my clothes with this scent. The fragrance transcends me back to Japan with its wood-sy and mystic aroma.<\/p>\n
