"If I'm doing somebody's skin from scratch, probably more on an editorial shoot versus like a celebrity job, I would do Bioderma Sensibio H2O. I'd pass it with the Bioderma on a cotton round. I would put a little bit more pressure in the areas on the face where makeup tends to cling, down the side of the nose, forehead, any little crevices. Then I would mist wipe any excess away."

"I use honestly any any soap I don't care and people send free cleansers and I use them but I'm less good about purchasing. I did purchase at boots though because I ran out of the theater and they don't have bar soap at the theater. CeraVe has a nice foaming facial cleanser. Yeah I love it. I fell in love with the body. Just anything. I like a pharmacy shop so when I'm here I go to like Christ Street Pharmacy where it's just more, it's not just a basic CVS, just anywhere I can go."

"This is Then I Met You and I have three Living Cleansing Balms. It's bright orange, it's beautiful, it smells like a dream which is important to me on cleansing. It destroys makeup, it destroys SPF. The reason I've used these the most is because with Then I Met You I can use these to remove makeup and SPF but I can also use them as a skin cleanser, so if I'm traveling I can use these as a one-stop shop if I want to."

"When I moved to Illamasqua, the products were so good. The textures, the formulas were so good, they were so ahead of their time when it came to inclusivity. When I worked on that counter, I had all sorts of customers, different types of people that I would get, and working at Illamasqua, learning how to properly communicate and serve these people was really valuable."

"Lush acne and Lush to my head don't go together. They don't go together. It wasn't so much what they were telling me, it wasn't that they were telling me you know this does that and you can rub this soap on your face and rub some garlic on your face whatever. But at the time I was used to Clean and Clear, and I was like, oh actually ingredients is really interesting. Like this is a whole new world that I don't know about."

"JVN Nourishing Shine Drops is a Best of Beauty winner with hibiscus antioxidant and hemisqualane. It makes your hair stronger and shinier instantly and over time, but without the white cast that heavy squalene can leave. It really does immediately improve the texture of your hair, and over time it's a finishing oil that also makes your hair healthier, better than just covering it in silicone."

"I bought this on a whim in my hairdressers after I'd been for a blow dry a few months ago. Unite 7 Seconds Detangler, I love it. I love it more than the original Evader Cescon spray. It smells lovely and it works a treat. The London water is hard as a brick so you have to go in with something that's a bit more detangling. I spray it with this and I brush through with my big yellow dry by paddle brush then I put a bit of this on and I'll go in a bun and I'm done."

"Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream, I swear to God the smell of that. They used to use it on your lips, on your elbows, to put sheen on your skin, on your shins, on your eyelids. They'd mix it with eyeshadow to make it glossy because you couldn't really get glossy makeup products that you can get now. So they used to make up makeup products, you know. There wasn't a whole load of different highlighters that you could go for, so they would tap eight hour cream along the cheekbones. It's so funny when I think back now, in a way how limited it was, but also they made it work. All the brilliant things then are still the brilliant things now."

"If you want a cleansing mist but you don't want anything heavy, this is perfect. Perfect in the summer, perfect if you have breakouts, perfect for a teen that has acne if you want to soothe it and hydrate it without putting heaviness and weight of oil on it. No surprises, always always always in my bag. I've got two full size and two travel size. I've used this ever since I first got a hold of it. I said oh my God this is amazing, I love it. I still buy it. It's a Japanese brand. If you haven't tried it you should. If you are in any way dehydrated or your skin gets sore in the cold weather or too hot and red in the warm weather, you cannot go wrong."

"The Peptide K8 Power Cream is amazing. I love it. It's a moisturizer but it's more than a moisturizer. You do not need this if you're in your 20s and you lead a healthy lifestyle and you go to the gym and you don't smoke and you don't drink. However, if you're not in perfect health, you might need some kind of extra benefit to your skin. If you are older, you will definitely see the benefit of using this. I love it. If you ever see it on offer, just buy it."

"It is incredibly calming and soothing, it is plumping, it is intensely hydrating, and over time it just helps sort of rebalance and you notice a difference in your skin and how resilient it feels to actives. It's a nice juicy serum, very hydrating. If you've burnt your skin, I've even applied it to that. It will not sting, even when water stings your face. When you're sunburned, if water stings your face you can't put a moisturizer on until at least 15-20 minutes later because it stings. If you've done a chemical peel and your skin is peeling, water stings. This product won't. I've had so many people come back to me and say, 'Everything stings my face, this is the first product that doesn't.'"

"What I like about this one is it's a water-based serum, so it goes into the skin quickly and if you have oily skin absolutely not a problem. It doesn't kind of weigh your skin down so you can keep adding on the other stuff. It's basically imperceptible, it disappears, and great for the summer. I have very fair skin so I always get diffuse redness, and it's my go-to. It really helps with my diffuse redness, that's surface redness. I recommend it for all age groups and all skin types. It was originally formulated for my daughter who has oily acne prone skin, but we're finding that a lot of our clients are reaching for it for redness, pore size, and because they've heard of niacinamide and want to try it. I'd put it at the beginning of the routine simply because it's a water-based serum. If you put it on after your moisturizer it's just not going to get in as easily."

"I have a huge amount of love and respect for Clarins. I have a long history with this brilliant French brand. I first used them in my 20s, I worked for them in my 30s, and now I'm telling you about their brilliant new version of the iconic Double Serum, unbelievably now in its ninth generation and undoubtedly regaining its cult status. It is quite frankly a sensational upgrade rooted firmly in the performance Clarins is known for. Double Serum now targets signs of aging linked to lifestyle, think pollution, blue light, sun damage, and UV, with five new actives and a potent provinal re extract that tackle this head-on. I love the luxe texture, the elevated peptide in squalane formula, and the innovative new dosage pump. Use daily as your treatment step. The results in four weeks are impressive. After 5 years of research and six patents to reach this version, it's absolutely been worth the wait."

"My favorite is L'Oreal waterproof mascaras, carbon black and the telescopic waterproof have never failed me ever. I go through tubes upon tubes of them. I do one coat of waterproof to hold the curl. If you apply too much mascara though and it's really wet, the curl will drop, so you do have to really wipe it off. I let that dry and then I'll follow with a stage two mascara, which is usually a non-waterproof mascara."

"If I'm wanting silicone and I want to be dressed up evening sexy, I'm going to reach for Haus Labs. The Haus Labs Triclone foundation and concealer, there's nothing on the market that will last quite as long as that. It's Korean technology but it's the best contract manufacturer in Korea. There's some biotech infused but there's the balancing of the materials to yield the result. If you have really oily skin you're going to need some type of a blurring primer like Laura Mercier's to neutralize and soak up some of that oil."

"I'm currently back on the yellow tube Carmex. Back on the Carmex, hard to go wrong with the Carmex. The only thing I don't like about Carmex is the round applicator, because it still got the round one. I would like a triangular shape. I've tried the expensive ones, I've tried the very expensive ones for this, but like a cheap Carmex does the job. It's pretty much the same. I don't want to put my finger in an expensive pot. I just want to put it on and it's done."

"Born This Way concealer from Too Faced because it is so malleable you can shear it out beautifully when you mix in your own like other emollients. It's honestly great on mature skin if you're in the right hands with the right touch, mature skin loves it. It's one of the only products on the market that you can apply over a powdered face and do touch-ups, so for bridal it's truly iconic."

"A really fine powder, for example, might be Hourglass. That's very fine. Something that's very, very light and fine is great, and you don't have to put it everywhere. I don't put it on my cheeks because I want the light on my cheeks. So just nose down, the sides down the front of your nose, down the sides of your nose, forehead, chin. That is generally enough to keep you looking un-shiny but not flat. No one wants to look flat. I just put it on with a big fluffy brush. The smaller your brush, the heavier your coverage is going to be."

"I am devoted to my Zip Halo. I have been doing this for six, seven months and I love it. I use it like four times a week. Obviously I know loads of people work with them but I have said no to collaboration even though I love it so much, because I don't buy the long-term claims of any nanocurrent electrochemical current device. However if you want to look better today, yeah, you will look better today for the whole day. I can look at pictures and I know if I've done it that day or not. I do it before cleansing in the morning on a dirty face because the gel comes off anyway."

"My favorite luxury product would probably be the cream bronzer from Chanel. I do love a cream bronzer from Chanel, and there's something about Chanel like it's never going to be bettered in terms of packaging. It's the best packaging in the world, it's the best marketing in the world, everything about it is just perfect, and even to this day, even though I've been to the labs and I've seen behind the velvet curtain and I know what's going on there, there's something about it and the heavyweight that just gets me."

"If I was to go for a blush, it would be Rare Beauty. Not the liquid one, the one in the really bright pan. It's got a spongy texture, kind of creamy, really pigmented. You build it up. It lasts. It'll give you a blurred finish as well. You can't go wrong with it. Well, you can go wrong with it if you put on too much. Even me with my blush blindness, I'm like, this is too much. You look like you've just literally laid down in red paint."
