What's the best beauty advice you've ever been given or have discovered?
WATER - and lots of it! I drink at least 12 to 14 glasses a day. I exfoliate, use sunblock, and (the best tip of all from my mother) always be comfortable in your own skin. Once you can master that, you take your beauty to a whole other level!
I can't go a day without my Moroccan Oil Light (they made a 'light' version for platinum blonds that won't leave a brassy tint). As a blond, my eyebrows seem to disappear with my youth from year to year, so I am constantly looking for the perfect pencil/powder - at the moment I'm loving BROWzings in 'light' from Benefit. I also love Benefit's Erase paste No2. for concealer, it gives great coverage! I love a good 60's cat-eye from time to time, and my Nars Eyeliner Stylo in Nuits Blanches and Lancome Defincils mascara in black are pure perfection for that look. In the Summer I'll do a light dusting Benefit HOOLA on my cheeks, and nose - it gives the perfect glow. I'm addicted to the color gray - it doens't matter whether it's summer or winter - and I love, love, love essie's perfect shade of gray - Chinchilly! I wear it on my toes 24/7. Last but not least, I would be remiss if I didn't mention my favorite scent, Black Orchid by Tom Ford - it's GORGEOUS.
Being divorced and raising 3 daughters for the last 8 years, getting a little bathroom time can be like fighting for one's life! I've found a dry shampoo or a little baby powder at the roots is a great quick pick me-up for the locks. And when all else fails - a hat, some killer shades, a touch of gloss on the lips and voila, you're off and running!
