Mother’s Day was yesterday and in honor of all the amazing mothers out there we are going to look at some beauty tips that celebrities and fashionistas learned from their moms. Every little girl learns a few beauty tricks from the one who brought them into this world and you can never know too many. So without further ado, here are some tips that some people who know a thing or two about beauty learned from their moms.
Georgia May Jagger, Daughter of Jerry Hall
“Red lipstick. Me and my sister love red lipstick. That’s something that my mom passed on to us. I guess full hair, we all love having long hair. She uses avocado oil and olive oil in her hair – that’s quite a good one, kind of a cheap thing to do. Another thing would be to put lip balm on your teeth to stop the lipstick from going on your teeth.”
Gabriella Perezutti, Candela Designer
“My mother had four children, including twins, and still to this day she has a really flat stomach. So when I got pregnant with my twins the first thing she told me was, ‘The moment you give birth start wearing a girdle for at least a month so that everything goes back into place.’ I did exactly this and it worked! One of the few times I actually listened to my mother.”
Ying Chu, Executive Beauty Director, Glamour
“My mother has some great DIY skin secrets. One is to use rice water to rinse your face – she said it would brighten skin and boost clarity. Clearly she was onto something…look at all the rice-infused cleansers and serums now.”
Aerin Laude, Granddaughter of Estee Lauder
“My grandmother always said,’You only have one face, take care of it’. No matter how tired you are, cleanse and moisturize, stay out of the sun and drink water.”
Hayley Phelan, Senior Editor, Fashionista
“My mom is all about being natural, and she definitely passed that ‘less is more’ ethos down to me when it comes to hair styling and makeup. It’s about looking effortless. That being said, she also instilled the importance of a good hair colorist – having the right shade can totally lift your whole complexion and then you can get away with wearing even less makeup.”
