Beauty Break--THE FORMULA

Miu Miu sweater, Joe Fresh turtleneck, Wythe coat from Asos



Hi All!  Hope you are spending the end of the "Holidays" wisely!  A while ago, a commenter ("Anonymous") asked me to post about my beauty routine. Lucky for my lazier propensities, Aimee at THE FORMULA did most of the work for me on this one!  You can check out the entire interview here (and other amazing profiles with more beautiful pictures of more beautiful subjects).  If you're the type of person that is super thorough (in either a creepy or non-creepy way), below is a full list of the skincare products I use on a regular basis.  Will highlight my favorite make-up doo-dads in PART II (I know, it's exciting :).

BEHOLD.....!

-Clarins Pure Melt Cleansing Gel (my absolute favorite face-wash ever)
-Clarins One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser / or Bliss Pore Perfecting Facial Polish / or St. Ives Apricot Scrub
-YSL Toning and Cleansing Micellar Water (cannot live without this!)
-Clarins Hydraquench Intensive Serum Bi-Phase (I always use this and sometimes mix with the below serums)
-Elemis Visible Brilliance Serum
-Princess Theodora Von Auersperg Rejuvenating Rose Serum (this is a new one, but really like the feeling on my skin and the smell is divine)
-Clarins Hydraquench Cream (in summer)
-Elemis Maximum Moisture Day Cream (in winter)
-Shiseido Bio-Performance Super Eye Contour Cream
-Clarins Younger Longer Balm OR YSL Top Secret Beauty Sleep Restoring Skincare Palette at night

MASKS:

-Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel
-Clarins Hydraquench Cream Mask

HAIR:

SURPRISE--I don't really care about my hair!  I do love the above pictured Sachajuan Volume Oowder--it's the only dry shampoo I'm a fan of.  Also love Terax leave-in conditioner and Redken All Soft Argan-6 Oil.  I've heard a lot of good things about Moroccan hair oil, but I haven't quite made the jump yet....
