From Layering Skincare To “Clean” Foundation, Tata Harper Reveals Her Beauty Secrets For Looking Fabulous At Every Age

The Co-Founder of the natural skincare brand shares her daily routine and go-to products here

MAKE-UP & FRAGRANCE


Favourite make-up brand: 
Westman Atelier. They are clean, high-
performance without any synthetic ingredients.


Foundation or concealer: When glamming up for a 
photoshoot or event, I love applying the Vital Skin
foundation stick by Westman Atelier.

Go-to lip
 colour: I never leave the house without applying our Be 
Adored lip treatment for an added pop of colour.

Mascara: Eye-
love you mascara by Westman Atelier. It isn’t too heavy
on the lashes, but has major lift.

Signature scent: Queens & Monsters
 Henry Rose – I love the woody, natural aroma.

Signature
 make-up hack: Before applying make-up, I always apply our Illuminating
Moisturiser and Eye Cream that are formulated with
diamond dust to give your skin a subtle glow without any glitter.

HAIR

Hairstylist: LA-based celebrity stylist Adam Campbell.

Hair schedule: Cut and 
colour every four weeks.

Style secret: I avoid using heat tools and before I air
dry my hair, I apply Anveya root oil to the ends to style.

Treatments: I have been loving using a serum on the scalp to help my hair grow stronger – my favourite is the custom serum by Harklinikken.

Favourite products: My hair can be quite dry at the ends so I love to apply a hydrating hair mask like Cut by Fred before washing.

Bad hair day secret: Styling my hair into a messy low bun to tame my curls.

SKIN & BODY

Skincare routine morning & evening: For my morning, I always start by exfoliating with our Regenerating Cleanser – exfoliating daily really lets my skin breathe and glow. I follow with Hydrating Floral Essence to help my serums penetrate deeper. Then it’s all about layering — I use Elixir Vitae on my whole face, next Elixir Vitae Eye Serum, and then Repairative Moisturiser. At night, I always start with double-cleansing: I use Nourishing Oil Cleanser, then our Purifying Cleanser, then I use Hydrating Floral Essence.

For serum, I use Elixir Vitae on my face and Boosted Contouring Serum on my neck. I like to use Face Halo’s Pro pads to make the cleansing process easier. They’re made from ultra-fine HaloTech fibres that gently lift everything from foundation to mascara and  can be used for up to 200 washes. Right after I love to use Jillian Dempsey face-smoothing gold bar for 10-15 minutes. It’s made with 24-karat gold and uses subtle vibrations to make the face appear more sculpted. I like to massage my body with the Wildling Aura Stone.

INTERVENTION

Attitude to injectables: Do what makes you happy, but remember that you are doing it for yourself and not to achieve society’s standards of  the “perfect look.”

Cosmetic dermatologist: Dr. Anolik from the Laser Institute of New York for Fraxel Laser.

Surgeries: I had rhinoplasty when I was 14.

DIET & FITNESS

Go-to snack: Chocolate-covered almonds.

Workout method: I do a combo of strength training, HIIT, restorative stretch yoga and hip hop classes.

Guilty food pleasures: French fries and chocolate-chip cookies with milk.

Beverage: Butterfly 
pea flower tea.

Breakfast: I do intermittent fasting until around 10:30 when I will have a celery juice. I find that it really helps with digestion.

Food dislikes: Animal 
organs and gamey food like deer.
