Beauty Lessons From Our Mums

Prescillia Darmon Cohen - Senior Buying Manager
“The main beauty advice that I have from my mum is to always remove all of my make-up before going to sleep – no excuses! Plus, to sometimes visit a Dermatologist for more thorough skin cleansing. It’s the best way to achieve beautiful skin.”

Jessica Diner - Beauty & Lifestyle Director, Vogue
“My mum always told me to invest time in myself and my beauty regime. Whether that was face or hair masks once a week, getting a little mani-pedi, or taking the time to indulge in a getting ready routine before an event or night out, she taught me the importance of investing in yourself on the outside for self-worth on the inside. (She’s a psychotherapist – can you tell??)”

Lou Jones - Creative Design Manager
“My mum always taught me the importance of a good skin care routine not just for overall skin health but also to use the time spent as a bit of "me time" to start and end the day - it gives you a chance to breathe. You must cleanse, tone, moisturise and don't forget that eye cream - and whatever you have left on your fingers, spread across your neck and hands... those areas need TLC too!”

Beth Thomas - PR & Strategic Partnerships Manager
“The advice my mum gave me was to never over pluck my eyebrows. (Hers are basically non-existent!) She is an angel for giving me this advice – and it’s why I now have werewolf style brows!”

Mica Ricketts - Deputy Beauty Editor, Who What Wear
“My mum is the MOST positive influence on my life and her ‘it’s the little things that count’ approach to happiness has definitely rubbed off on me. She’s definitely the reason that I’m content being curled up at home with a cup of tea and a good book! She’s always told me to do what makes me happy – even if it might not be the route that others expect.”

Emeline Ancelot - Head of Key Accounts
“My mum’s advice is to always make sure your foundation is blended properly into your neck – avoiding that telltale orange line around your face! She’s always rubbing my face colour into my neck when I see her. It’s no secret that I can go a little overboard in the quest for a more sun-kissed complexion…!”

Paige Gillard - Former Community Discovery Specialist
“My mum always told me to look after my skin – moisturise, moisturise, moisturise! For as long as I remember she’s always added a few drops of baby oil to a bath, and without fail moisturises every single day! Her skin is perfect, and she definitely does’t look her age!”
