"Since I'm always on the move and can't carry all my products with me, I don't always have the same routine at hand. But as long as I have all my steps, everything is fine."
About her evening routine
"My evening routine consists of very meticulous cleansing, always with a product that rinses off with water. It can be an oil, a milk... anything that requires mechanical action. Since I have dry skin, I always opt for gentle solutions that leave my skin hydrated. It's not uncommon for me to do a double cleanse, sometimes even using an oil to dissolve impurities. I can't go to bed with the idea of still having pollution on my skin. It's one of the first things I learned a long time ago, and it's something I stick to..."
Can you share your view on Better Ageing?
"From my perspective, ageing better means living better, which isn't always simple and requires awareness. The positive side is that as we age, we become more in tune with ourselves. We know ourselves better, we've learned a lot, and we have the experience. As for the 'better' part, I believe it's essential to try and slow down the ageing process by taking care of our bodies, staying active, and listening to ourselves. It's not just about external appearance but also about metabolism, organs, and internal well-being. It's also about mindset, taking on new projects, having challenges, etc. Everything is interconnected, of course.
“I see ageing as a slope that we should descend as gently as possible... With a smile."
