The 7-minute skin work-out

When I jump on the train in the morning with my one and a half liters of coffee from the world's largest coffee supplier, I quickly brush away the toothpaste from the corner of my mouth and there's nothing-nada-nothing on my face. With a bit of bad luck, I forget my mascara for the rest of the day and when I do put it on, I almost fall asleep with it. You get it, we are busy bees. I don't have hours for lengthy rituals, but now I've discovered the 7-minute work-out for my skin. And that's how I weave those seven minutes into my week.

Monday

The week has started again. I wake up early to spend some extra time on my skin. Last night got late and that last glass of Chardonnay wasn't the best idea after all. To reduce the dark circles around my eyes as much as possible, I use the Skin Life Early-Age-Delay Eye Cream just before I jump on the train to Amsterdam. Back to my Amayzine friends.

Tuesday

A day when you have five appointments scheduled all over Amsterdam, it's raining, and it's five degrees. Time for some extra protection. No foundation and concealer for a moment, but instead I use the Skin Life Glow Primer This gives just a little extra tint and also contains SPF30. Perfect for a day like today.

Wednesday

I start my day early at the editorial office. When I come home in the evening, I'm actually exhausted, but I know that a beautiful skin is one that you need to take good care of even when you're young, so off I go, brushing my teeth and applying cream on my face.

Thursday

Amayzine is celebrating its fifth anniversary today, hooray! At eleven o'clock in the morning, we're already having champagne and cake. In the evening, we celebrate extensively. We drink the most delicious cocktails before heading to one of the best parties of the year, organized by Vogue with Hugo Boss ’The Scent’. The dress code is slip dresses and tuxedos, so we all go all out with our looks. Before I plaster my face, I first remove the last remnants of makeup from the day to then give my skin an extra boost with the Skin Life Day Cream. Time to party!

Friday

You get it: the hangover is very present. There was dancing, toasting, and singing deep into the night. But the show must go on and today we just work. I repeat the 7-minute workout from Lancaster and those bags under my eyes disappear like snow in the sun.
