What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Waking-up without bags under my eyes.
What is your greatest fear?
Riding in a convertible with the top down, the effects are devastating on skin and hair.
What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?
Gaining weight.
What is the trait you most deplore in others?
Not gaining weight.
Which living person do you most admire?
Carmen Dell’Orefice, at 91-years-old she still personifies grace, and elegance, and can still fit into sample sizes.
What is your greatest extravagance?
My evening beauty ritual is my greatest extravagance because not only does it take long, it’s expensive. I start with washing my face with Schwanen Garten antioxidant Foaming Cleanser, followed by massaging my face in circular motions with ice-cubed cucumber water, 10-minutes of electric stimulation with Purelift Pro Plus, followed by Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner, and Valmont’s V-Firm eye cream and serum.
