For Rachelle Sayed, Associate Marketing Manager under Stores Specialists, Inc. for the official franchises of Gucci, Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Alexander McQueen and Tod’s, a typical day involves a lot of multi-tasking. From attending meetings to handling the advertising and promotions of each brand to attending events, one wonders how this beauty always looks so put together.

Her secret? Opting for a simple skincare regimen. “I’ve found the modern-day skincare routine to be so much more complex with added steps and products. Personally, I don’t believe that piling on all the ‘holy grails’ is the best way to go,” says Sayed. Instead, she shares that during the day, she simply cleanses and applies a lot of sunblock, while at night, her routine consists of cleansing, toning, applying serum and moisturizing. “Recently, I’ve come to love a few products acquired from a beauty haul in Japan, such as SHISEIDO Perfect Whip Cleansing Foam and DHC Deep Cleansing Oil. Apart from these, my staples include AVÉNE Gentle Toning Lotion and ESTÉE LAUDER Advanced Night Repair Serum,” she divulges.
