YOUR QUESTIONS


Q Can we talk


pores for a second?


Mine are huge!


How can I unclog


them without


getting extractions?


Use a toner. I like Kiehl’s;
the company has one for
each skin type. Toner will
help tighten pores and
keep them clean. Another
thing I’ve learned is that
the order in which you wash
your face and apply your
products can help protect
your skin. First, cleanse
your face. Second, use your
toner. Third, moisturize.
Fourth, apply your makeup.
Each layer acts as the proper
barrier to the next one. I
always do this, and it really
helps. One more game-
changing tip: No matter
how tired you are, wash your
face before bed!

Q I really hate foundation, but everyone’s


telling me I should wear it for my wedding.


Are there any products you like that will


even out my skin without making me look


like a different person? 


I’m with you: I do not like, nor have I ever liked, full-coverage
foundation. Try applying concealer under your eyes and
over blemishes, followed by a good tinted moisturizer to
even out your overall complexion. (You can use your hands
or a brush.) Stila, Laura Mercier, and my company, Flower
Beauty, all make great ones that are foolproof and easy to
apply and let you still be you.

Q I’m wearing a really classic dress


with my hair up. What’s a great updo that


feels cu r rent?


One way to make any
style feel special and
very now is to add a
braid detail. You can do
a soft one across your
head like a headband or
a tucked-in fishtail, or
work a thick braid into a
chignon. As for place-
ment, I love a topknot, a
ballerina bun (which is
a bit further back), or a
chic low bun. Go with
whatever’s flattering
to your features. There
are endless combina-
tions, so just play before
the big day.
