5 Lessons I Learned From My Mother, the AestheticianMother knows best |
Because I'm originally from North Carolina, there are certain Southern mentalities that I've never let go of, even though I've lived in New York and traveled all around the world for months at a time. One of those is the idea of "putting your face on" before doing anything. Even if I'm working from home or just running out to grab a coffee or go grocery shopping, I put on a touch of makeup and lotion, just to feel pretty and refreshed. Because I'm used to applying a little somethin'-somethin' to my cheeks and eyes, I've developed a solid habit of washing my face — not only in the evening, but in the morning, too. My mom says this practice is one that will ensure clean, healthy pores, and always suggests taking extra time to ensure every last bit of makeup is off before you tuck yourself in. Even if I have too many glasses of wine, I still stumble to the sink and get the job done.
