With her skin always immaculate, we had no doubt that Carlota Casiraghi had to know the benefits of a good moisturizing cream. However, its trick lies more in the step of the skincare routine in which it is applied: right after the facial mist, when the face is still damp. The best thing is that it is a small detail that we can all put into practice at home without spending a single euro.
Carolina de Monaco's daughter told it, in 2014, in an interview for the American edition of Glamour. At that time she was the face of the Gucci makeup line so, during the conversation, she shared some of her beauty habits. Among them, the two key steps with which you take care of your face in the morning.
“The first thing I do is spray my face with a super-refreshing facial mist. I use brands like Avène and La Roche-Posay,” she explained. Then came the immovable detail: “I apply a moisturizer right after, while the skin is still damp, to lock in hydration.” In this way, the mist and the cream are almost part of the same step because you do not have to wait for the former to dry completely.
Although Carlota is famous for being the niece of the Head of State of Monaco (and granddaughter of Grace Kelly) and does not have professional knowledge of dermocosmetics, experts in the field endorse her intuition.
The Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology recommends, in its advice for skin with eczema, removing excess water with a towel without rubbing and applying moisturizer when the skin retains some moisture. For their part, both the British Public Health Service and the American Academy of Dermatology explain that emollients form a protective film that helps retain moisture in the skin.
Therefore, to incorporate this trick into our routine, we do not need to buy a mist if we do not already use one: you can take advantage of the moisture that remains after washing your face with water, removing the excess with small touches with the towel but without drying it completely. The choice of products, however, will depend on the needs of each skin.
As far as the personal choice of the royal It is in the touch of color with which it enhances its natural beauty. In fact, her preferences for lips were clear in that interview: “I'm not one to experiment with lip colors: I usually opt for red or a soft pink.” Two options that you alternate within your taste for natural makeup.
