“When we look at ourselves in the mirror, the first thing we ask ourselves is ‘What's wrong? What can I fix?’ What if you turn that on its head and ask yourself, ‘What do I like about myself?’ and that’s the first thing you do? For example, you go ‘I like my lips. What color should I put on my lips today?’” says celebrity and editorial makeup artist Simone Otis, lead artist of the makeup brand 19/99. In this episode of Clean Beauty School, mindbodygreen beauty director and host Alexandra Engler chats with Otis about how to play around with dimension on the face, identifying your best feature, and why beauty standards need to embrace age.
