esmi, The Uncomplicated Cleanser for $49 at esmi
I have a really good moisturiser that I use from SkinCeuticals, which I love. I also use an SPF called Ultra Violette. I didn’t take care of my skin when I was a kid, and now in my thirties, I have realised how much sun damage I did to it. So [wearing SPF] is something I really care about.

What's your night time skincare routine?
At night I’ve got more of a system now that works for me. I use Esmi’s The Uncomplicated Cleanser. And I use The Secret’s [Cellular Repair] Night Cream as an eight-week course. Or I use an amazing vitamin C serum from SkinCeuticals and a night cream.
What's your haircare routine?
Because of COVID, I didn’t get my hair coloured for 2.5 years. [My husband Matty] was cutting my hair! He had the kitchen scissors and I was like, “Please, please try to make it straight.” I’ve just had it professionally cut and coloured and I love it.
I wash my hair with Redken products in the morning, then I usually just leave it to air dry. I love Redken’s bonding leave-in treatment.

How has having kids changed your beauty routines?
I feel like after having kids, my beauty routine has become a lot more simplified. I don’t have time to fixate on things. I still want to look good but I don’t feel I have to keep up with everything as I used to. I’ve had a real priority shift.
What has the biggest challenge been, since having kids?
I think the biggest change for me has been to not constantly compare and contrast myself to other people. I know how damaging that can be. I think there’s a lot of confidence that comes with age as well.
What's your go-to makeup look?
I do love getting my make-up done. But if I have to do it myself, I prefer a glowy look, like a bronzy smoky eye and maybe some peach colouring. I know what works for me.
When do you feel beautiful?
When I’m all made up at a photo shoot. But I also feel beautiful when I’m just hanging out with my girls. And there can be times when I’m in my trackie pants and Matty makes me feel incredibly beautiful. [I receive] an amazing amount of acceptance and love from my family.
