Lisa Perry

First beauty memory: Wearing Yardley Lip Slickers. I was probably around 10, and I loved the smell and packaging and feeling all grown up wearing lipstick.

Biggest beauty blunder: While I was pregnant with twins, to emulate Madonna, I dyed my bangs blonde while leaving the rest of my hair dark brown. After all, it was the ‘80s. Genius.

5-minute beauty routine: Wash face with Koh Gen Do Cleansing Spa Water, La Mer moisturizing lotion, Dr. Dennis Gross CC Cream SPF 18, Claudio Riaz Under Eye Concealer, Lancôme brow pencil, Chanel Healthy Glow Sheer Colour Bronzer, Chanel Ebony Eye Crayon, and Estée Lauder “Lisa” Lipstick.

Beauty items in your purse: All of the above makeup plus a tube of Tatcha hand cream.

Day to night products: To go out at night I might add eye shadow, more eye pencil and mascara. Also would change foundation for more coverage to Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua compact makeup. It’s the best!

Current obsession: I did a recent collab with Estée Lauder and in one of our cosmetic bags (gift with purchase) they included a lipstick in my perfect shade of pinky nude, aptly called “Lisa”. I’m running out and I’m panicked that I won’t be able to get more. Help!
