Clemency and I first began discussing a collaboration nearly six years ago, sometime in 2018. Little did we know that a worldwide pandemic was looming, which would soon put everything on hold.
DON'T OFTEN GET a chance to answer many of your Instagram DMs, but have noticed that many questions seem to be around similar topics, so I thought it might be helpful to address some common things here. And while it's lovely of you to compliment my hair, I am unable to share my current stylist's information for privacy reasons, but do very much appreciate the kind words and will be sure to pass them along.
Mayfair, an exquisite neighbourhood nestled in the heart of London, is a true embodiment of elegance and refinement. With its timeless charm, Mayfair stands out in its sophistication, effortlessly combining history with modern luxury. Picture yourself strolling down tree-lined streets adorned with Georgian townhouses...
One of the most-asked questions is about my beauty and makeup routine. My skincare regimen changes with the seasons, with less makeup and rich moisturisers in the summertime, and the opposite in the winter. It's especially important to care for your skin in the wintertime because the cold, dry air can strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry, itchy, and more susceptible to cracking and irritation.
WE ACTUALLY DISCOVERED the ultra-chic Paris apartment of Christine d’Ornano via Barbara, who used to write for TIG. d’Ornano, who works for the French botanical beauty brand, Sisley Paris, moved from London to Paris when she moved up in the company to the position of global vice president in 2018 ...
For as long as I can remember, one of the most common compliments I've received is not, surprisingly, about my style, but about my hair. Over the years I have invested a lot of time and care into it and all I can say is that today my hair is healthy and I have managed to find a healthy routine for it ...
Have been the luckiest person to have a few sunny days away in Biarritz in this rainy month of May, where the Atlantic Ocean offered me a few days of good waves, enough to get the taste of what surfing is about and how it makes you feel. Though it was mostly cloudy while in the water, I did managed to get my face burnt by the sun (even though I used SPF 50).
These days I am more aware of the time passing by than I have ever been before. I had the impression that yesterday was Monday, but it’s already the end of the week, and time is so fleeting. The only constant these days is how much time I have been devoting to taking care of myself. It has become part of the routine to mask and to take the time to apply all the creams and serums ...
These past summer days, I have been lounging around reading Find Me by André Aciman, the author of Call me By your Name. Contrary to what everyone expected, he wrote on twitter: “I would actually love a sequel to Call Me By Your Name. In fact I am writing one.”
I am not usually interested in what is new in the beauty market, but would rather know everything about what is best. Figuring out which combination of products works for my skin is still a work in progress. My skincare routine always starts with a thorough cleansing process and then applying layers of products from the lightest to heaviest.
When it comes to my hair, the most important part about my haircare routine is to make me feel good. My hair has the power to make me feel confident and there are so many factors involved in achieving great hair: shine, strength, thickness; more volume; less frizz ...
This year has begun with conversations on all the social platforms about age and and how to gracefully embrace ageing. Chanel ambassadrice, Caroline de Maigret, published her second book, Older, but Better, but Older, on this very topic ...
Last year I talked a lot about my favourite products here. I am happy to have finalised the list of products that really make a difference in my routine. I’ve already mentioned a few of them before, but there are few other areas in my life ...
Even if the internet is full of gift ideas, there is still some place left for more inspiration. This shopping list is dedicated to those who have a beloved one who really cares about skin.
I have been conducting personal research on some beauty products and was reminded of growing up believing that there was only a single brand for skincare, and that it worked for every type of skin and issue. This single brand, of course, was the classic Nivea.
