What is your morning routine?
I don’t have a morning routine. I don’t use an alarm. I wake up when I have had enough sleep, which is around 8AM. To me, the best energy in a day is 8AM-12AM when you can feel the energy from the sun, as it gets stronger and stronger. I do have things that I love to do in the morning but it’s not a routine. I would do few of them or sometimes none of them depends on my mood – make coffee, prepare a nice breakfast, read few random pages from a random book, light up a candle, listen to music, talk to my plants, let my mind float or even go for a little walk around the neighborhood seriously whatever makes me feel good in the morning. So each morning to me is special.
What is your favorite item on our LVR beauty selection?
My favorite is the Diptyque LYS candle. I love watching a burning candle, the lively light is just fascinating to me. Lighting it up on the bedside helps bring the garden light in.
What are your favorite designers on LUISAVIAROMA?
There are so many brands that I like on LVR for example Bottega Veneta, Loewe, Gucci etc.
And Simon of Jacquemus is my favorite designer. Jacquemus is for the people in the world that we are living in and it reflects the simple pleasures of life.
Which are your favorite beauty trends?
Minimal routines. I used to put heavy foundations on everything but now I prefer wearing less because
1.) it’s better for my skin 2.) I wanna spend more time on things that I love to do.
What are your favorite looks of the season?
My all time favorite item is a blazer and I love matching it with jeans with sweatpants with layers or with anything that you can think of. Plus, a cup of coffee in my hand is part of the look.

What is your morning beauty routine?
My beauty routine is actually fairly simple.
I have a hot shower and clean my face with Dr. Barbara Sturm cleanser, followed by the super anti-aging serum for some extra hydration. Then I apply the Ubeauty resurfacing compound and the last step is Ubeauty’s super smart hydrator. I used to use a lot more products but I have simplified my skincare routine after being advised by my friend Tina Craig – the founder of Ubeauty.
