I've always loved flowers, as a little girl I'd collect flower objects and little flower books. Now I love flowers on my night table and on my desk.
-
My day typically starts with an early-morning walk through Central Park. It's a nice moment of calm before my routine starts.
-
We have a house near East Hampton, and of all the beaches I've been to, I think there is something so beautiful about Long Island beaches. I love them in the fall and winter.
-
I have always loved beauty and fashion. Some of my earliest memories are of being surrounded by fragrances and lipstick samples.
-
I'm very detail-oriented, which is good and bad. Because I will wake up in the middle of the night thinking about something or seeing a mistake, thinking about it, and I immediately send an email - I'm very focused on details.
-
I have a lot of staples in my wardrobe. I love to pair a silk or lace blouse with a fitted black pant. This combination feels effortless yet put together.
-
I like to entertain at home, to live beautifully but comfortably.
-
In terms of pots and pans, I just use the basics - I'm not a snob like that.
-
I have a dual role as founder of AERIN and Image and Style Director of Estee Lauder. So work is a bit of a juggling act.
-
You could say that I am the Estee Lauder woman. I'm a working mother; time is valuable to me. I want a good product; I want quality.
-
I wash my skin with Re-Nutrive Intensive Hydrating Skin Cleanser, no toner, and follow with the range's Re-Nutrive Intensive Age-Renewal and Eye Creme.
-
I've always been inspired by beautiful interiors.
-
I love Pilates, I really do, and I do it three times a week because it works well for me.
-
The biggest beauty myth is that everyone looks better without makeup. That's not true. Makeup is important.
-
I've always liked simple. Growing up, I wore corduroys and Lacoste shirts, Maraolo flats, and maybe one gold bracelet.
-
I leave work by 6:30 P.M. so I can spend some time with the children. Inevitably, we'll end up watching basketball or football. I live in a house of boys, and they're all sports mad, so I don't stand a chance.
-
Luxury is anything that feels special. I mean, it can be a moment, it can be a walk on the beach, it could be a kiss from your child, or it could be a beautiful picture frame, a special fragrance. I think luxury doesn't necessarily have to mean expensive.
-
I used to be a shopper before I had children. I'd go to Bergdorf and Barneys all the time. But now my weekends are spent differently. I go to the skating rink or the park, not the stores.
-
I think every woman should be using a foundation, whether it's liquid or compact.
-
I discovered I was passionate about the creative process, the product development, creating a concept around a fragrance or lipstick.
