Skin secrets of the cosmetics entrepreneur and owner of south-west London’s most glowing complexion

Entrepreneur Millie Mackintosh

1. Jan Marini Bioglycolic Face Cleanser, £26 At certain times of the month, my skin erupts without warning. This clears breakouts and keeps my skin spotless. It contains glycolic acid, which exfoliates without scratching, so unlike a scrub you can use it twice a day. 2. Skinceuticals Serum 10, £78.75 The odd breakout can leave blemishes and scarring that look almost as bad as the original spot. This contains a gentle form of vitamin C to brighten skin, promote healing and help those marks fade faster. 3. Dr Frances Prenna Jones Day Work, £125 When your skin is working hard to heal itself, this offers extra protection. The vitamin A- and C-rich rosehip oil prevents ageing oxidative damage and reduces inflammation if your skin is feeling sensitive. 4. Bioderma Sensibio H2O Make-up Removing Micelle Solution, £10.80 Shoots and red-carpet events mean I often have to wear more make-up than I’d like. This takes it all off without stripping natural protective oils. I use it before cleansing to shift make-up. 5. Sarah Chapman Skinesis Overnight Facial, £49 After cleansing, I ‘read’ my skin. It’s not as crazy as it sounds: if you pinch skin and let it go, you can judge how much moisture it needs by how quickly it springs back. This is like a glass of water for a parched face. 6. Millie Mackintosh Prep & Pamper body collection, £20 I love my snooze button so mornings are pretty hectic, but in the evening, these products helps me to unwind before bed while soothing and hydrating my skin. I love a shower but baths are ‘the one’.
