Gucci Westman’s Daily Beauty Regimen, Skincare Secrets And Makeup Hacks

…I usually hit snooze for 10 minutes. Depending on who is home, I will maybe hit it twice. When I am feeling like I have to stick with a schedule, I set my alarm. I always meditate for 20 minutes before I get out of bed. I have my home-made, almond-milk latte after I’ve drunk a glass of water, and then I’ll put something cozy on to take my youngest daughter to school. When I get home, I have a bowl of blueberries and a protein shake later on. I just ordered this new protein powder called Mikuna that I am excited about.

…and then use some products that I am sampling from our brand [Westman Atelier]. I typically use our Skin Activator along with a new product I have been testing out – there are a bunch that I love! I’ve been using Skin Activator for a while now, and it’s completely changed my skin. For the first time in 15 years, I’ve been able to go without foundation – even after taking antibiotics for two months, when I still had breakouts from my rosacea. I used to use a thick moisturizer, thinking it would really hydrate me, but it was more of a superficial hydration. We worked with a scientist in Korea, whose patented system allowed us to use more active ingredients – we have 15 actives in this serum. After my skincare routine, I use neuBROW Brow Enhancing Serum on my eyebrows both morning and night – I am obsessed.

I even out my skin tone with either our Westman Atelier Vital Skin Foundation Stick, Complexion Drops and/or Vital Skincare Concealer, depending on the quality of my skin that day. Sometimes I need less, sometimes more. I have been going big on our newest Sun Tone Bronzing Drops [a liquid bronzer]. I brush them on across my cheeks, nose, forehead and eyes and then I’ll add a bit of Baby Cheeks Blush Stick in Petal and then go back in with concealer. For lips, I’ve been playing around with our new Lip Shape Lip Liners and our Lip Suede Matte Lipsticks. My current favorite combinations are Lip Liner in Mink [an espresso] with our Lip Suede Matte Lipstick in Reine [a peachy nude], or the Lip Liner in Petal and Lip Stick in Rose, Lip Liner and Lipstick in Je Rêve [a blushy nude] and Lip Liner in Mimi [a dark peach] and Lipstick in Minx [a bright pink]. Finally, I use our Face Trace Contour Stick in Biscuit for my cheekbones and nose; and that is my everyday routine!

He says that “the process is the reward”. It really helps when you’re feeling frustrated and stuck, whether in business, life, or a relationship, as it’s good to think that these difficulties are just part of the process that ultimately brings the rewards.

…Westman Atelier Skin Activator followed by Supreme C. With both of these serums targeting such different needs for my skin, I feel at ease going to sleep knowing that my skin is recovering and work is happening. Skin Activator is so hydrating and calming; and Supreme C is incredible for brightening the skin and dark spots, plumping, and making your skin feel juicy. They’re like little elves in bottles! When I have a breakout, I go to my dermatologist and do a medical-grade red-light treatment but also douse my face in Skin Activator several times. When my skin is dehydrated, I usually drink more water and I will do a 111 Skin Black Diamond Mask at night, again followed by Skin Activator.

I love the TheraBody face products – the new TheraFace Pro [a mix of facial massage, cleansing, LED and microcurrent technology] is insane. The Ya-Man Photo Plus Shiny [which uses LED technology, electrical muscle stimulation and lontophoresis] is also exceptional. I have them both in my kit and use them on myself at least once a week. Also, the TheraBody cooling wand is amazing and I travel with that.

I’ll exercise, have a green juice and drink a lot of water. I always pack electrolytes and various supplements, such as Jet Set, which I take every few hours; plus, my own plane food and my Skin Activator serum – it all helps.
