I always urge my clients to stay hydrated, it’s super important. And good sleep. Otherwise, I think it’s great if they can get a facial the day before—though I recommend skipping any kind of unnecessary extractions. A mask the morning of like the restorative mask or even at the beginning of glam is also helpful to get the skin in peak condition before the rest of skincare and makeup.

Lea is expecting her second child, so we really wanted her to just look radiant and beautiful. We didn’t feel it was time for any over the top makeup. Skincare was key, so I started by using Oak Essential’s Balancing Mist, then massaged her face with Ritual Oil and a small amount of Moisture Rich Balm. I kept the skin very radiant with a soft focus finish. The key was using cream bronzer and blush for warmth and color, carefully blending out the edges for an overall seamless look. Eyes were softly defined but pretty neutral, and we finished with a creamy rose lipstick.
