Quotes:

 

“Injectables, I think, are the last thing people should do. I feel like dialing in on their lifestyle practices, body, mind, spirit, energy — all of that — cultivates a higher level of beauty and radiance.”

 

“I love recommending that people have a solid at-home routine with their skincare. A really good diet, lifestyle, dialed in, that’s specific to them.”

 

“The trick is to use ultra-clean products that have been determined to be safe and effective with derma-rolling. You don’t want to buy a roller off eBay or Amazon and hope for the best.”

 

“If you’re super healthy on the inside and you’re getting a ton of antioxidants, you’re almost getting internal sun protection.”
