What is your beauty regimen? There is a lot going on in my beauty regimen! Primarily in my skincare routine. I’m quite the nerd and if I do something I want to do it right. So I’ve been really looking into the scientifically proven side of skincare. Believe me.. there’s so many crappy products out there that actually just harm the skin in the long term. I could write a book about the subject by now. But in short: I avoid any irritating ingredient. No perfume, essential oils, alcohol, or irritating plant extracts. I don’t scrub or use hot or cold water on my face. No brushes or sponges. Very very gentle. I cleanse twice a day with a gentle nondrying cleanser. At night I will use a toner which contains multiple beneficial ingredients in the right concentrations to actually do something. After which I’ll use a chemical exfoliant and lastly a moisturizer with again, high percentages of actually beneficial ingredients. During the day I also use toner, then a serum with very high amounts of antioxidants to help prevent damage from the sun and pollution. After which I use a sunscreen. Sun damage accounts for 90% of skin aging people! Use it every day of the year. But, my long hair is actually very easy to take care of. I wash it once, maybe twice a week. I use conditioner and some serum. That’s it. I don’t even brush it and just detangle it with my hands. The rest of my body gets a weekly wash when I wash my hair and I use a chemical exfoliant all over my body for that nice fresh glow. Do you have any advice for those who want to start modeling? Figure out first what kind of model you want to become. Do it because you love doing it and see if something good comes out of it. Watch your boundaries and only cross them at your own initiative. Not because someone says you should (for example, posing nude). Lastly, if you want to start of nicely. Always, ALWAYS show up on shoots. Don’t cancel last moment without a good reason. Many models do this. Be the one who is reliable.
