This week on Mummy Beautiful: Carine Khoury, mother of two.
What is your daytime skincare routine? I apply BB cream and a bit of makeup.
What is your nighttime skincare routine? What goes on, must come off. I don’t go to bed without using a makeup remover and a cleansing milk.
Favourite beauty product? I love moisturisers, mascara and nail polish.
This week on Mummy Beautiful: Emilia Koushoumi, mother of four.
What is your daytime skincare routine? I’ll be honest and say I don’t really bother too much with my skin during the day unless I feel dry in which case I use a moisturiser.
What is your nighttime skincare routine? I wash my face with water and nothing else before I go to bed. Again I may apply a moisturiser but not always because I don’t feel my skin needs it.
This week, on Mummy Beautiful: Stella Georgiou, mother of three.
What is your daytime skincare routine? I wash my face every morning with an antibacterial face wash and then apply a 24 hour moisturising cream.
What is your nighttime skincare routine? Every evening, during my shower I use a homemade scrub on my face. It is made with olive oil and baking soda. Then, I apply a night cream.
I don’t know if it’s the eery sound of age creeping up on me or the realisation that some things (thighs, I’m talking to you) will never change but I am finally tuning into my skin and all its needs. Those monthly breakouts are yet to be tamed, I won’t lie, but overall my skin is in a much better state than it would have been if I continued to turn a snobbish nose to the sacred valley of beauty and skincare products. Wiping off make up and applying the occasional mask was about all I could muster when it came to caring for my skin. Probably the only thing I can say I did right by my skin is religiously applying sun protection for the last five years. You don’t want to hear about my ignorant youthful and bountiful use of baby oil because that’s just disgusting and I would really rather forget about it.
