Streets AHEAD!

Toni’s simple tips for looking good on the run

Radio and TV personality Toni Street is a busy mum of three, having welcomed her third child Lachlan via a surrogate last year. But despite juggling three pre-schoolers with 4am radio starts, she always looks effortlessly glam, so we picked her brains to ask exactly how she does it!

What was your first experience with beauty?

Jazz dancing when I was seven. We had to wear the full works – foundation, eyeliner and blush. It was my favourite part!

Run us through your morning and evening skin care routine.

In the morning at 4am, I start with a hot flannel, then use Lancôme Absolue Soft Cream Crème Fondante Régénérante moisturiser and if I’m tired, I’ll add Plantae Avocado Pear Eye Contour Cream. At night, I use Plantae Exfoliant Visage Cleanser, then Plantae Sea Buckthorn Berry Night Cream. If my skin is a bit dry, I’ll apply some Elizabeth Arden’s Visible Difference Replenishing HydraGel Complex. Every other night, I wash and condition my hair with Olaplex – it’s made a huge difference to the texture.

What three products are in your bag right now?

Blistex, OPI Tokyo collection in Hurry-juku Get This Color and L’Oréal Paris Glam Bronze.

I get my make-up and hair done much quicker now! I’ve deliberately kept my hair longer as it’s easy to style with a couple of GHD curls. I used to wear eyeshadow in the day, but now it’s just eyeliner and mascara to speed things up.

I like to go much heavier around my eyes. I love a smoky eye with false lashes and heaps of eyeliner, top and bottom!

What’s the best tip you’ ve learn tin the make-upchairatwork?

Contouring with bronzer can really give your face shape! It’s a must for my round face.

I get spray tans before big events from Bare Waxing in Belmont for an instant lift. I get my eyebrows feathered every year from Shari at Brow Theory. This frames the face and is one of the best things I’ve ever had done. I also had an IPL treatment at the Caci Clinic on my face for the first time last year and it made a major difference to my sun spots.

Whoisyourbeauty styleiconandwhy?

Locally, Lorraine Downes – she’s ageing so gracefully and just glows every time I see her. Internationally, I love Blake Lively’s style. She’s always classic, never old-fashioned. I’m also a big fan of Duchess Kate – I love her classic choices too.

What’syourbiggest beautyregrettodate?

Getting my hair dyed full blonde. Having natural colour come through is so much more flattering for my complexion!

What’syourgo-toscent?

At the moment, I’m loving Jo Malone’s Wild Bluebell.

Howdoyoukeepfit?

I do F45 and personal training with Selva Thankamani at Get Fit Fast – I love the short, sharp, high-intensity workouts. It doesn’t take all day and gives you that rush of endorphins!
