What are your holy grail products? What skincare product can you not live without?
It changes a lot, but I've always loved Clarins Double Serum, Tatcha Dewy Skin Cream and Pixi Glow Tonic.
How did you find a skincare routine that works for you? What was your trial and error process?
A lot of trial and error and a lot of research. I personally enjoy collecting and trying out lots of skincare products; so for me, it was a lot of fun figuring out what worked and what didn't.
What is a skincare hack you think we should know?
Thick cream on your neck every night before you sleep.
Do you use facemasks?
I have tons but I don't use them too often. I usually save them for an event. But these days, it's when I'm feeling extra at home.

Do you have a beauty or skincare horror story?
I know it's bad—but I prick my pimples, so that's a constant horror story!
How often do you practice skin fasting (a break from skincare)?
Often. My skin often breaks out when I have too much fun with skincare and do a full evening routine.
Are there any skincare rules you’ve broken that have done wonders to your skin?
I use a lot of acids to exfoliate, although that's widely accepted nowadays. I [also] used to put toothpaste on my pimples back in high school but have upgraded to Mario Badescu drying lotion [which] basically does the same thing.
