What does a typical day look like for you?

“In my spare time being that I’m so busy I like to relax, catch up with my girlfriends and pamper myself.”
What is your best travel beauty tip?
“Make sure to always bring moisturizer and eye masks whilst travelling. This will keep you hydrated and looking fresh when you land.
“I also like to bring my own silk pillowcase to be hygienic and help with anti-ageing.”
What is your daily skincare routine?
“I cleanse my skin with Mario Badescu seaweed cleaning soap or Dr. Barbara Sturm darker skin tone cleanser. I follow with Mario Badescu glycolic acid toner. This toner is best because it balances out my oily skin.Lastly, I moisturize with an SPF Barbara Sturm and use a cleu de peau eye cream.”
