7 a.m.: I’m not a morning individual, so let’s simply say getting off the bed isn’t simple for me. Whereas I’m nonetheless in mattress, I examine my emails for manufacturing updates on each Hair Objet and my positive jewellery line. However I by no means reply any of them earlier than espresso.
7:30 a.m.: I take my LivOn vitamin C together with a tincture I like. After I let that marinate for a few minutes, I’ve my morning espresso.
7:45 a.m.: The children’ breakfast is served. We’ve been going concerning the mornings a bit extra slowly as of late, as nobody is speeding off to high school or camp for the time being.
8:15 a.m. I head to the lavatory, the place I dry brush with the G.Tox Final Dry Brush and then hop within the bathe. First I do a scalp cleanse with G.Tox Himalayan Salt Scrub Shampoo. It’s my favourite for eliminating any dry shampoo buildup. I began my profession as a hair colorist, so I understand how necessary it’s to maintain the scalp wholesome, and this actually does the trick, with out drying out my hair. I comply with that with a hair therapy (a few instances a week) or conditioner. I comb by means of the conditioner with my wide-tooth Deborah Pagani hair comb. For physique, I take advantage of Nécessaire’s Physique Exfoliator in Eucalyptus about thrice a week. It’s so invigorating!
8:25 a.m.: After I get out of the bathe, I toss my hair up in an Aquis Lisse Luxe Hair Towel. When you strive one, you’ll by no means use a common towel on your head once more.
Whereas my hair dries, I begin off skincare by moisturizing my physique with a mixture of physique oil, an AHA lotion, and Beautycounter moisturizer in Citrus Mimosa. It appears like a lot, however it leaves my pores and skin with a nongreasy glow and a good mild scent.
8:40 a.m.: I’m obsessive about all issues magnificence and skincare, and I tailor my routine in line with what I really feel my pores and skin wants on the time. I wash my face with African Botanics Baobab Clay Oxygenating Cleanser and comply with that with intense moisturizer throughout my face and décolletage, between my breasts and the tops of my shoulders—these are locations that age identical to the face and are sometimes forgotten. I then spritz on a little bit of face mist.
I take my hair out of the Aquis towel, and it’s simply damp at this level. I add a little bit of hair oil on the ends that I brush by means of with a Mason Pearson brush, and then I high it off with a dryer if wanted.

9 a.m.: I labored in magnificence for fourteen years, so it’s onerous to be au naturel—I simply don’t really feel myself. Even throughout lockdown, I want a little glam. So earlier than I do anything, I’ve to get my hair out of my face (hair have to be up for any thorough magnificence routine). I wrap my hair in a chignon utilizing my Massive Glossy Pin, which retains it safe whereas I do my make-up. It’s additionally my favourite magnificence hack: It’s the easiest way to get seaside waves with out utilizing an iron.
I’m a large fan of Gucci Westman and all issues Westman Atelier. My make-up routine begins off along with her basis brush and Important Pores and skin Basis Stick. It’s buildable and spreadable, so I can actually get the no-makeup make-up look.
I like contouring! And sure, I even do it in quarantine. I take advantage of the Westman Atelier Face Hint Contour Stick below my cheekbones, down my nostril, round my hairline, and below my jawline.
I used to by no means put on blush—solely bronzer—however Gucci actually impressed me so as to add some shade. I attempted the Child Cheeks in Chouchette, and now I’m hooked: It offers me a bronzy look plus some added heat—a nice, pure sun-kissed tan. After blush, I intensify the contour along with her Magnificence Butter Powder Bronzer.
That is my favourite combine for cheekbones: a swipe of the Lit Up Spotlight Stick, add a little bit of Tremendous Loaded Tinted Highlighters in Peau de Pêche and Peau de Soleil, and mix collectively utilizing her Blender Brush. I like how hydrating these highlighters are, and they mix so properly with one another. After highlighter, I take advantage of powder at my brow, and chin, and below my eyes and cheekbones (however not on the highlighter).
My brows didn’t survive the ’90s, so I have to fill them in. Then I curl my lashes with Troy Surratt’s lash roller, do a swipe of primer, and comply with with a few coats of Eye Love You mascara by Westman Atelier.
I don’t put on a lot on my lips proper now, as a result of it simply will get throughout my masks, however I’ve an agave lip serum that I like.
9:15 a.m.: The very last thing I do after I dress is make my every day smoothie with every thing my physique wants: Malk almond milk, frozen raspberries or strawberries, one scoop of GlutAloeMine, one scoop of natural spirulina from Triquetra Well being, half a teaspoon of Solar Potion’s mucuna pruriens, one scoop of Liv Physique vegan protein in snickerdoodle, and a few dashes of Ceylon cinnamon.
As soon as I down my shake, it’s off to a day of digital shopper appointments, designing, and in fact, operating after my three youngsters.
