What are your skin beauty essentials?
Olay Regenerist micro-sculpting cream morning and night. Coconut oil a few times a week at bedtime.
I use the Kangen water machine by Enagic. I drink 9.5 PH alkaline water and use the 6PH water as a facial toner – it makes my hair and skin healthy and glowing.
Your beauty routine?
A Kangen water machine by Enagic: drink 9.5 PH alkaline water and use the 6PH water as a facial toner – it makes my hair and skin healthy and glowing.
Sleeping as much as possible – at least 8 hours a night.
Cleansing my skin twice a day and keeping it moisturized by applying cream 3 times a day. No make-up whenever possible.
Eating an organic, mostly plant-based diet with at least one fresh juice per day. As we know, beauty comes from the inside!
Wellness Routine:
Drink 2 glasses of 9.5 PH water first thing in the morning and then 2 liters throughout the day; eat 4-5 small meals throughout out the day.
Meditate (at least once a day).I highly recommend a transcendental meditation course.
Vitamin D + Omega 3 + probiotics on a daily basis. Being physically active!
How do you stay fit?
By carrying my toddler up and down the stairs.
Walking and practicing Kundalini yoga.
What’s a perfect make-up
– for the day time?
Laura Mercier secret camouflage for under eye concealer.
YSL dark brown pencil for part of the eyelid.
Mascara by Sonia Kashuk for Target.
Stila cream blush (convertible color) + blush terracota for a healthy glow.
Sisley nutritive lip balm on the lips.
– for an evening out?
Same as day make-up + add Cork color Mac eye shadow and a Nars velvet gloss lip pencil or Kevyn Aucoin lipstick + add more blush.
Your fragrance of choice?
In Peace by Space NK.
A beauty “faux-pas” to avoid?
To not take your make-up off before bed time (even after a late night out).
The one I see every day: to apply eyeliner all over droopy eyelids which has the effect of closing the eyes instead of opening them.
Overdone botox and fillers.
Less is more.
A place of choice be it NYC, London or Paris for:
a healthy lunch? Pure food and wine in NYC in the garden in the summertime, In Paris on the go at one of the Cojean café or a juice at Bob’s cold press in Palais Royal garden followed by an omelet or salad at Café Flore. In London, the Rose bakery café at the top floor of Dover street market.
a glamorous evening? The yearly Women For Women International and Browns Catwalk fundraising events in London.
a winter dinning experience? An earthy meal on the sofa by the fireplace of ‘The Little House of Mayfair‘ in London.
A necessary splurge? Raw chocolate. Truffle gnocchi with mushrooms. A healing session of Qigong.
A retreat favorite? The Aman resort in Bhutan…a complete mind reset.
Your next project?
Spread the word about successful alternative cancer prevention and treatments.
Your mantra:
Be and do the best that you can then let go: everything is the way it is supposed to be.
