Like mother, like daughter. We asked 16 beauty experts to share the distinct impact their mother had on their lives, from the power of a perfectly drawn red lip to deeply ingrained self-love and confidence for MothersDay.
“My mom has always been a beauty addict! I became obsessed with beauty and skincare from watching her and my grandmother as I was growing up. Their beauty routines were never a chore to them, it was about starting and ending the days with a relaxing, pampering self-love moment. My mom’s best-loved products were always Swiss skincare offerings. But my favorite thing that she would do was host spa parties with her friends every weekend at our house, with masking and everything.
“My mom is the reason I chose a life in beauty! When I was 6, she’d wrap my hair in a mask of eggs and olive oil right before bed. When I woke up and washed it out, my hair was transformed into a beautiful, shinier version of itself. On my 11th birthday, she taught me how to massage my skin with oil.
“As most French women, her beauty routine was simple and consistent. To this day, if I go to bed without cleansing my face, I can hear her say 'Make sure your skin is clean and well hydrated before you go to bed...' She was all about oils, serums, and massaging the skin to stimulate firmness. After my first facial with her esthéticienne when I was young, they became a monthly mother-daughter rendez-vous.
