You might remember the lovely Marleigh<\/a> from this post<\/a>. Well, the moment we got a look at that beautiful skin, we knew we had to have her back for a Beauty Minute. Her makeup knowledge and insights are phenomenal. <\/p>\n
What is your morning beauty routine? <\/strong><\/p>\n
-Wash face with lukewarm water and La Roche Posay Foaming Cleanser<\/a>, rinse with cold water
\n-For the day sometimes I do a few swipes of OLEHENRIKSEN Glow2OH Toner<\/a>, but mainly Skinceuticals C E Ferulic<\/a> and Phyto Corrective Gel<\/a>, Superberry Dream Eye Cream<\/a>, Cosrx Snail Mucin<\/a>, YTTP Dream Oil<\/a>, Eadem Cloud Cushion<\/a>, Apostrophe SPF<\/a>, and for body I love Soft Services Carea Cream Daily Toning Lotion.<\/a><\/p>\n
-In the shower I love to use a lavender soap bar and the Soft Services Buffing Bar<\/a>. Good smells from products in the shower is a dream.<\/p>\n
-I take Seed<\/a> to help with gut health since that truly influences so much in your body!<\/p>\n
–Maison Louis Marie No.4 Balincourt<\/a> has been my favorite perfume for the past 7+ years :)<\/p>\n
-I wash my hair 2-3 times a week and barely use heat on my hair. Lately I\u2019m into Crown Affair\u2019s shampoo and conditioner duo<\/a>, then nourishing my hair with their oil. Having the right haircut that works with my waves makes this part of my beauty routine very carefree.<\/p>\n
-I watch a fair amount of YouTube and TikTok videos since makeup is fascinating to me, and I\u2019m always learning new tricks. I love to start the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray<\/a>, ideally after my skincare routine because it locks in the hydrated glowiness.<\/p>\n
-I dab some Glossier cloud paint in Dusk<\/a> under my eyes to cancel out the green\/dark under eyes and lightly bake in my Kosas Concealer<\/a> under my eyes, around nostrils and on any breakouts. Sometimes I use a brush or just my fingers to apply concealer. To be honest, I hate wearing foundation and a lot of makeup but I don\u2019t have flawless skin at the moment, so it needs a bit more love.<\/p>\n
–The Fenty contour stick<\/a> is full stop, amazing.<\/p>\n
-Glossier Cloud Paint in Dusk<\/a> over my cheeks and a little on my nose for that sun-kissed and awake look. <\/p>\n
-I fill in my eyebrows with Milk Makeup\u2019s Gel Brow<\/a>, keeping the tip sharp helps create thin and realistic brow hairs. <\/p>\n
-I\u2019m pretty impressed with Rare Beauty\u2019s line<\/a>, the mascara is great as well as the lip souffle.<\/p>\n
-My favorite lip shades are orange-red or bright fuchsia-pink. The Rare Beauty Lip Souffle<\/a> is perfection and I love my Rodin red lipstick<\/a>. The ILIA Lip Wrap is a favorite base and touch-up through the day, the gloss is a nice touch.<\/p>\n
What products do you use throughout the day and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n
I don\u2019t typically use anything but Soft Services Carea Cream Daily Toning Lotion<\/a> through the day, it\u2019s so luscious and hydrating, the whole brand is just so impressive. If I need a moment of calm the Caudalie Elixir Spray<\/a> is just heaven.<\/p>\n
What is your evening beauty routine? <\/strong><\/p>\n
-My absolute favorite makeup remover is The Camellia Cleansing Oil from Tatcha and I double-cleanse with La Roche Posay Foaming Cleanser<\/a>.<\/p>\n
-Nighttime is more chill since I focus my routine on a topical treatment from Apostrophe<\/a> that is a mix of Spironolactone, Tretinoin and Clindamycin. I sandwich it between Cosrx Snail Mucin<\/a> and the YTTP Dream Oil and followup with either the YTTP Adaptogen Deep Moisture Cream<\/a> or Eadem Cloud Cushion<\/a> and my grail product is the Cosrx Pimple Patches, it keeps me from picking and hyper-fixating on something that just needs to be left alone. Plus, for me, it can get rid of any breakouts with 1-3 days. <\/p>\n
-I absolutely love the KLUR Supreme Seed mask<\/a>, it smells absolutely incredible like a chocolate cake, feels so smooth and airy and makes my skin feel really loved. This is such nice nighttime relaxing ritual.<\/p>\n
What is your definition of beauty? <\/strong><\/p>\n
