My number one beauty advice actually came from my 87 year old Gram, who is still one of the most insanely gorgeous humans I know.
Growing up, she always told me, “Cream in the morning and cream at night.” And she meant it. That simple little ritual was really my first lesson in self-care and self-love. Taking care of yourself was just something you did every day.
But as I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized the most important beauty lessons she taught me had nothing to do with cream.
She taught me radical self-acceptance, a positive attitude, resilience when life gets hard, and fierce loyalty to the people you love.
So yes, cream in the morning and cream at night. But also love yourself as you are, laugh a lot, get back up when life knocks you down, and love your people fiercely, loyally and unconditionally.
After all my years working in aesthetics, I really think those are the truest ingredients for staying beautiful.
