If you haven't heard of Elle Ferguson... where have you been? She's the entrepreneur behind Elle Effect, the cult self tanning brand, with a cool 683k followers on the 'gram.
Hear Elle's talk all about her morning routine, along with her beauty and tanning tips below.
So, what’s the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning?
Is it bad if I say check my phone… I actually always get excited because so many amazing things seem to happen overnight so im normally excited to check my phone first thing.
What’s your go-to breakfast at the moment?
Greek yoghurt, fresh cut pineapple, honey.
What does your AM skincare routine look like?
Normally it's super fast. I wash my face with cold water (it wakes my face up). Apply some Queen Screen, I love the dewy finish and knowing that I have sun protection on my face while I go for my morning walk. And some Tatcha lip jelly and then I'm off.
Any great SPF hacks?
My number one hack is don’t be afraid to use an SPF. I think so many people relate breaking out or feeling light SPF is heavy on their skin but in all honesty you can’t leave the house without it. You need to protect the skin you’re in. I also love using Supreme Screen as an SPF/primer. Makes life a lot easier when one product has multiple benefits.
What’s your tanning routine?
Thursday night is tan night… No matter where I am. I scrub off my old tan using The Wash and then apply my Elle Effect tan with the luxe application mitt and then I rinse in the morn.
Any tips for a flawless application?
BLEND BLEND BLEND. Also the skin on your body needs to be treated life the skin on your face. Its all about prep using The Wash and then staying hydrated.
Best beauty advice you’ve ever heard—go.
Beauty comes from within.
Don't go to bed with your make up on.
Drink water.
