My Beauty Secrets: Robyn Brooks

Robyn Brooks (30) is the designer for fashion label Ooby Ryn.

MY BEAUTY PHILOSOPHY IS

Everyone has their beauty, but not everyone allows it to be seen. If you are happy within, then you’ll allow your true beauty to

shine through. As Audrey Hepburn said, “Happiest girls are the prettiest girls .”

THE SKINCARE PRODUCTS I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT ARE…

Daily, I use EmerginC Multi-fruit Cleanser and Original Skin Moisturiser (1). When I have my ‘brain drain’ days, I swear by aromatherapy

oils to make me feel good again. The Aroma Room Energise Body Oil (2) is my favourite citrus fragrance to calm and refresh me.

MY HAIRCARE SECRET IS…

Pure Fiji Coconut Milk Shampoo in Mango (3) and Conditioner. This keeps a great shine and restores health to your hair, plus it helps maintain colour longer.

THE MUST-HAVE PRODUCTS IN MY MAKE-UP BAG ARE…

Eye of Hörus Mascara (4) and Karen Murrell Rymba Rhythm Lipstick (5) – it’s the classic red lip colour that adds a last-minute splash of

sophistication to any outfit. And my ever-reliable Jane Iredale Liquid Eyeliner (6).

MY FAVOURITE BEAUTY TREAT IS…

Home alone for an evening to create a luxurious spa. I take a long bath and do the full body makeover – I apply a face mask, then shave my legs and exfoliate with Pure Fiji Coconut Sugar Rub (7).

It’s so relaxing and a wind down after a crazy week at work.

MY BIGGEST BEAUTY SIN IS…

Biting my nails.

THE BEST THING MY MOTHER TAUGHT ME ABOUT BEAUTY WAS…

Beauty comes from within and laughter is the best medicine – clichés, but so true!
