Content creator Sai Ferrera talks us through her beauty routine Talk us through your morning routine. I wash my face with water without any soap because I still have my moisturizer on from the night before and natural oil produced by my skin which is healthy. I use a silk pillowcase cover to protect the skin while I sleep. If Iʼm working from home, I use Foto Ultra 100 ISDIN SPF 50 sunscreen or Sunsense SPF 50 because that means I wonʼt be wearing makeup.

less Primer with SPF 50. Makeup primer is crucial; contrary to popular belief that itʼs just added expense, primer allows your makeup to stay on better and therefore last longer so you wonʼt have to keep retouching. When going to the beach or the pool, I struggle with skin pigmentation and still want to look my best, so I use Heliocareʼs compact oil-free SPF50 foundation. And does your evening beauty routine differ? In the evening, I use Bioderma makeup remover; then I use a toner (Iʼll be honest, I
donʼt stick to one brand), and then I use Charlotte Tilburyʼs Magic cream or occasionally add serums, unlike in my 20s, my skin is less sensitive. I donʼt get spots quickly anymore, so I play around with serums and beauty products such as Dior, Ole Henriksen, Nuxe, Chanel, The Ordinary, LʼOccitane and so on. Whatʼs consistent, however, is Retinol which breaks down into retinoic acid upon contact with the skin, which helps increase the cell turnover and boosts collagen production, and I use the one by La Roche-Posay.
