How-To Build The Perfect 2025 Capsule Wardrobe (Plus, The Essential Beauty Products To Match!) With Liv Perez

24:22And to be honest, that's not the most flattering silhouette on everybody. I think you have to be really tall with long legs to pull that off. I'm not really tall and I have a ton of ballet flats and I love them for more casual everyday wear, but they're definitely not elevating my outfit. They're like the shoe that just is something comfortable if I'm like running errands. But I have a pointed toe flat that I love. It's definitely a splurge. They're from Loro Piana. I have them in a lot of different colors because they're so well made and I wear them all the time with everything. I think the brand is, there's a really good dupe from Mark Fisher that's very similar.

24:58And they have them also, you know, Schutz, Steve Madden makes them. I would just look for any pointed toe flat because I think it elongates an outfit and it gives that level of sophistication that a rounded toe flat wouldn't be able to give. But you still get the same level of comfort. Yeah. I like the Emmy Parsons ones. Do you know that brand? So many brands I haven't heard of. I love those. That always makes me excited. And what's the silhouette we know of the show? But are you doing like black leather? Are you doing like leopard print? Like what is the go-to for the capsule? Hot take. The Emmy Parsons.

25:32Oh, yes. I've seen those. Exactly. The dark brown ones. E-M-M-E Parsons. I really want those. Yeah. It's just a good silhouette. But hot take. I'm not a leopard print girl. Okay. I wish I was. I'm not. I know. It's definitely a hot topic whenever it's brought up. Like with my friends who do love leopard print. But I am a classic black leather. Got it. And I honestly, if I could, I'd get them in every color. Don't care from what brand, I'd find the shape from any brand and get them in any color. What about the, again, the computer bag, like a tote bag that kind of fits everything? What would be a good investment right now?

26:07Because it's so practical. I just got the Quiana tote. And I was really impressed with the process of getting one. Yeah. In the sense that they put you through kind of a quiz of what your everyday looks like. Are you someone that goes around with the, you know, do you want a makeup tote? Do you want to put your laptop in there? And then they customize the inserts of the bag for your everyday. Wow. I really loved that. And it was so nice having this coat tote that like perfectly fit my laptop and also came with its own. Like it became a laptop case. Right. Which I loved. Yeah. And the price points on those aren't that bad.

26:43They're like$300. $350. Yeah. for leather. And, you know, they have them in a lot of different colors, black leather, brown leather. And you can get their initials. Yes. And I mean, obviously, look, I could sit here and tell you all the splurge totes that I would go for, like the Saint Laurent Le Cinq Acept, I think is what it is. My French is terrible. I've had my eye on that bag for months. I'm obsessed with it. It's just a big... Would it fit a computer, do you think? The big toe would. Oh, okay. Yeah. Not the... There are multiple sizes of this tote. There's the, you know, smaller over the shoulder.

27:13There's the other one and then there's the big, big one and that would fit a laptop. That is a dream computer bag. But if you're looking for something that is relatively affordable, good quality, and I also think has all the bells and whistles to get you through a nine to nine, not just a nine to five, that bag's great. Awesome. And what color did you get? I got it in the like classic brown. Yeah. I'm not sure what their exact tone is, but yeah, I have it in the classic brown. What about a watch? I feel like watches are so back. Watches are so back for sure. I have a few. I mean, I'm someone who sees watches as an investment and also something I like to like, you know, bring into my life for big moments.

27:59So a birthday, an anniversary. So because of that, I'm usually a splurger when it comes to a watch. I love the Cartier Tank more than anything in the world. I think it's so beautiful and so classic. And I'm lucky enough to have gotten mine from my mom. She passed it down to me. So it's something that I really cherish and absolutely love. And so good is really like just it makes every outfit. Yeah, it's so beautiful. But there are so many new watch brands that are coming out right now or brands that are, you know, existing heritage brands that are putting a big effort on beautiful classic watches that feel of our time right now.

28:34One Heaven Mayhem makes a really good kind of similar Cartier Tank vibe. She's everywhere right now. And yeah, she's done a really good job of taking these, I would say, kind of old school heritage aesthetics and bringing them to the masses, which I think is hard to do. And she's doing it so well. She's also stunningly gorgeous. Yes, she is. She's been on my podcast before. She's wonderful. And such a businesswoman. Yeah, awesome. Also, believe it or not, Tory Burch makes wonderful watches. I'm a big Tory Burch girl. I love their accessories. I think they're really different, stand out, and a great investment if you're someone who wants to have fun with fashion.

29:09and I was actually just looking at their watches the other day and they have like a great gold kind of dainty similar tank-esque watch one with a black strap and a brown strap I was really impressed by those the other day so yeah I actually just got one and I can't wait to take it around try it yeah I'd love to have her on the show one day I just think she's so like she's done so well for herself I don't know she's she's it's like classic now there was a time when it was just so of the moment. Remember the T? Like triggered. I can't. Sorry. But now it's become classic. Like it has. I just immediately think of those shoes and the big gold buckle.

29:46Yeah, I know, I know. But we're beyond that now. We're beyond. She's transcended. That's the point. Yeah, like just get an Apple Watch. I wear my Apple Watch to work out when I want to track things. Although am I really tracking things? And then I wear my fancy watch elsewhere. I'm more of an aura ring girl. I mean, it's really big and bulky and I can see it in pictures, which is why I take it off. But I think if you're wearing an Apple Watch, you're committing to the athletic look. Right. Yeah. Right. For sure. I want to circle back to, you mentioned highlighter. So I'm guessing this is the item that you would use to elevate for work.

30:22And I'm curious what the highlighter is. What's your go-to? I'm a Dior tried and true highlighter girly. The Dior Backstage Glow Palette is one of my favorites. I love that it comes with four different shades because I think it's fun to kind of mix and match. Also, aesthetically, it's very pretty for like any countertop imagery that you're working with. Yeah. I also do really like the Charlotte Tilbury highlighter wands, but I'm desperate for her to repackage those. I agree. Desperate. I was just thinking that the other day. I was like, you know what? This needs a new package. People are saying so on TikTok, so it's probably going to come.

30:54It's, for those of you who haven't tried it, it's a tube and in order to open it, you twist where the applicator is, which is just the messiest. Yeah, and it's a spongy little top, which is pretty unique. It explodes everywhere. I do love the idea of a wand and being able to apply it. It's really fun. They just need to change how you open and close it. Absolutely agree. But I have that in highlighter, contour, blush. I love that product. Yeah. So, Charlotte, if you're listening, I love you. Don't be mad. Yeah, yeah. Same, same. Come on, I'm sure.

35:04What about everyday essentials beyond the workplace? Like you're just, you know, you're shopping down Fifth Avenue, you're meeting the girlies for brunch. Like what are the pieces that are kind of would be capsule pieces for you that we haven't talked about yet? I would say finding what your sweater shape is. Everybody has their shape. It's oversized, it's cropped, it's v-neck, it's cardigan. You can have them all, but we all have kind of our go-to. Right. For me, it's the Flynn cashmere sweater from Jenny Kane. I have it literally in every color. I love wearing it without a shirt underneath. I love wearing it with a shirt underneath.

35:39I love wearing it layered underneath a blazer. It just adds that extra layer, an extra element and texture to whatever you're wearing. So I love that. Is it cashmere? Is it wool or cashmere? Yeah. Of course. A cashmere investment piece, the best. And they're actually not that bad. I think they're 200. And I have a code I can share with your listeners. Yeah, let's hear it. It's LIVP15 for 15 % off. I am on Jenny Kane every day. Yeah. What about Alex Mill? Have you worn any? I haven't worn, but I often get targeted ads for Alex Mill. What about the quince one you just got? Because that's cashmere and it's like 60 bucks.

36:15It's$50. Talk to us about quince. Yeah. How is it? I have not taken the plunge on it. Okay. I'd love to know. Yeah. No, what I really appreciate when you go on their website is like they are so transparent that they're like, this is the cashmere sweater we have,$50. And literally they put beside it J.Crew, it would cost you this much to buy the J.Crew or this much at, you know, another like Nordstrom or something. So they're like being they're just naming names, you know. So I think that I think that price transparency is everything. And yeah, I think that the colors are on trend. And listen, for me, my cashmere that I have that I've spent four hundred dollars on pills anyway.

36:50So, you know, for 50 bucks, I've been impressed so far with like the fit and everything. And the size inclusivity, too. They have sizes that aren't just like four straight sizes. They have extended sizing. So I think that's important because that's unfortunately shrinking in a lot of other retailers. So I appreciate that. Okay. Any other capsule pieces for just everyday elevated? I would also say figure out what your accessories DNA is. Everybody has their own. Some people love a black belt. Some people have a brown belt. Some people like gold, silver. and for me I think that has really been a big style unlock in the last few years is figuring out what earring shapes fit my face what belt earring pairings I like together that will take jeans a white tee and a blazer to another level right that really has been kind of like the cherry on top and I think it's such an easy effortless thing to figure out and I think there are so many different great jewelry belt brands now more than ever that are you know a lot of these brands are leaning into accessorizing now more than ever.

37:54So I think it's a great kind of window into your personal style that's an easy, effortless lift for your closet. It's not, hey, go invest in this bright red sweater. Hey, go and invest in this expensive bag. It's how can you showcase your style in just these little ways? Right. What about Gigi's sweaters? It's so funny. I was actually just going to bring it up. I love that brand. I really do. I think there's so much innovation and it's fun and it's cozy. And I really appreciate brands that feel like they're founders more than anything. And it just, it does. It feels just like her and the colors and the shapes and the fabrics.

38:31Did she ask you for feedback at all while she was like maybe doing colors or silhouettes? Oh, she doesn't need my feedback. She is such a great designer and has such a great aesthetic on her own. Yeah, I love them. I love the look of them. I haven't tried them. They're very soft and very comfortable. Yeah, they look super cozy. And the store on Bond Street is amazing. It feels, they've really built a world that feels like the brand. And again, I appreciate good branding and good quality, like over everything when you feel like you're going into a world. Yeah. Yeah. It's called Guest in Residence is the full name, everyone.

39:01I just got a flannel jacket from them that I'm obsessed with. Oh. It's so soft, which usually like a flannel you'll get and it feels more like a puffer. This is like a cashmere flannel and it has a contrast collar, which I really love right now. And I've been wearing that on the weekends in our quote unquote 80 degree fall. Right, right. With jeans and like flats and it's just so cute. Yeah. Okay. What about the jewelry? Like are there just a couple of brands and silhouettes you're loving right now to invest in? And the belt, because I often feel like a belt is like the hidden, what do you call it?

39:35The sleeper hit of a wardrobe really. And sometimes it can be hard to get the exact right width and details. So tell us that. I really think belts are about trial and error. I don't think there's a formula to them. It's funny. I had a friend ask me to do a video on my Instagram of like finding the right belt. And I really, I think, I don't think there's a formula. I think it's a feeling. Okay. I love Cass D 'Amico. She's a content creator who started a brand called Orem Collective. Cass, if I just said any of that wrong, including your last name, I'm so sorry, but I adore you. We will link to it in our show notes.

40:08Yes. The right spelling. That brand is amazing. She's brought in a lot of vintage styles into her collection. It's all accessories. So great belts. I think she did eyewear. She has jewelry. And I am obsessed with all of it. It's elevated. It's definitely a little bit more of an investment belt than anything. But for me, I think really worthwhile because it's something that you could wear every day and have for a long time. Right. I feel like Hailey Bieber wears those belts. Yes. Everybody does. They're amazing. She's done a really fantastic job. Okay. I'm going to look that up. So believe it or not, I am an Amazon girly when it comes to belts.

40:45I have found so many great pieces on there. And look, you can splurge on a belt, but at the end of the day, a belt's belt. Yeah. Like if I don't, I don't need it to be like perfect premium Italian leather. Like I just need it to work and like hold my pants up. Right. Yeah. I've actually found there's one belt duo that I share a lot. It's like a 1999 duo. That's like a black leather belt with a gold buckle. and then the same thing for brown. Right. And I wear them all the time and get asked by so many people, where's that from? That's such a good belt. Amazon. Okay. And what are the earrings you're wearing the most?

41:20Hmm. And this is a podcast so people can't see, but it's kind of that like sculptural, chunky silver today. Big silver earring. Yeah. These are from Janessa Leone, who's also a great accessories brand. She's primarily known for woven hats. Okay. And she also has a great tote and a couple other accessories. three. She's a great brand, but I love these from her. I'm also a big vintage gal when it comes to jewelry. I love going on the RealReal and finding like vintage Chanel earrings. Givenchy has the best vintage earrings and I've been able to find two different pairs, both in the like 250 range that I adore.

41:57I look on the RealReal. I look on Bestie. I always kind of have my eyes out. And then there's one brand that's based in London that I am just obsessed with that I would get every single piece if I could. It's called Completed Works. And her stuff is very architectural, very sculptural, a lot of pearls, a lot of resin. And that to me is, her pieces are really a moment. Like you're building the outfit around the ear moment. And I actually first found them from Chrissy Rutherford. She was wearing an insane ear cuff. And I was like, what is that? Who is that? Tell me everything. And now I feel like I share them like once a month.

42:31Okay. Yeah, That's great. I want to talk about everyday elevated perfumes. And I don't know if you've, are you a perfume person? You know, I'm someone who finds my perfumes and like sticks to what I know. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. So I don't know if you've seen the new Merit. I'm wearing it today. So I'm going to pass it for you to smell. It's a beautiful sculptural bottle. Actually reminds me kind of of the type of jewelry we've been talking about. I am in love with this perfume. It's very floral. It is. But like musky floral. It is. It reminds me a little bit of Fleur, the way it's that second skin kind of effect.

43:10Wow. Perfume is interesting to me because I think it smells different on everybody, obviously. So I'm always, that's what I love about perfume is it takes its own shape on everyone. That's a gorgeous bottle. You're not in love with the scent is what it is. No, I am. Do you like it? Yeah, yeah. Oh, you like it? I'm a floral girl. So I wear Valentino Roma, believe it or not. A lot of people are shocked when I tell them that I wear it just because it's not maybe in like the popular zeitgeist all the time. Very floral. And I don't know. I just love the way it smells on me. Yeah. I also love that they have the main size and then they have a travel size.

43:45Oh, my God. I have the travel size with me on this trip. Oh, that's so amazing. Yeah, I do because they have the rubberized rock studs on the outside. So you're not going to smash it. Yeah. And it's not a rollerball. It's an actual spray and it has a cap on the spray. Unfortunately, with the Merit, I don't know if I would travel with that. Yeah. It looks like beautiful sculptural. Yeah. No, I think this is more about every day. Like you're going to wear this, you know, what I like about this fragrance. First of all, it took them like five years to produce. So they were going back and forth and they worked with a French perfumer, but it's called Retrospect.

44:17And they really, they're kind of moving away from this idea of like the solo flore, which we've seen for so long now, this idea of like one note, essential oils, very recognizable, and went back to an idea where they're really building the scent out of like fruity top notes, like pears. And then the middle notes are really floral, like you said, of like violet, rose, jasmine. And then the dry down has that like vanilla and musky note. So it's really old school. That's why it's called Retrospect. But they've modernized it. Like it smells, like you said, it's more like, you know, musky and like what Fleur is doing kind of thing.

44:54very wearable. I think this is going to be huge. And OK. And the price point is good, too. Yeah. It's like 90. It's like around$90. Yeah. Yeah. I will also say I feel like I've been opting out of perfume because I'm obsessed with Cyclar. Yes. Oh, really? I have been obsessed with Cyclar since the V1 of it. And she came on the podcast. We're talking about Claudia Slewski here. Yeah. She came on the podcast right after the original launch, which was in a glass container. Right. And she walked in and I was like, make me a perfume, make me this. I'm obsessed with the sense that she's developed. And since she just rebranded, I've been wearing and using every lotion.

45:33I'm obsessed with the rebrand. Yeah. Well, that actually makes sense because her same parent company incubator does missing person. They do floor. So they know who to call. Yes. Right. It is so good. And I even noticed like when I have the lotion on, I don't need a perfume because it is fragrant and you just kind of smell. Okay, I need to try this. I'm obsessed. I'm forgetting which scent I wear, but it's the one in the brown tube. Okay. And I'm so glad that she switched to a tube because for the nail girlies who were like dipping into the tub before, it would like get in my nails. I'm so happy that she has it in an actual like squeezy tube now.

46:11Yeah. Since you didn't mention your nails, are you the type of person similar to your scent where you're just always wearing the same color? Yep. Okay, tell me what it is. Am I boring? I might be boring. This is why we're talking to you about capsule. And I think you're not alone. I think people are like, I will not deviate from this is what I feel comfortable in. I have to look at my nails for three weeks on end because I'm getting the gel or the dip or whatever. So what's your layer? So I think when it comes to beauty for me, it's not that I'm not adventurous. It's that I just, I'm a classic person.

46:43I know it works for me and I'm not fussy. I'll try new beauty looks when maybe I'm going out for dinner or going to an event. But on a day-to-day basis, I like what I like. And that even goes to what I'm putting on my face. It's the same thing every day. And with my nails, I've been doing a Russian manicure for about three years now. And I have been wearing the same color. ever since. I wear a color called strawberry milk. I love it. It goes with everything I'm wearing. And yes, like I have these on for a month and I'm not willing to commit to like. Couldn't agree more. Like I would love to be a maroon girl right now, but like I can't do that.

47:18Yeah. Ain't nobody got time for switching all the time either. No. And like, what if I'm wearing an outfit and it throws it off? Exactly. I just look at outfits like I look at math. Like if one thing's off, the equation's not going to work. So if my nails are like bright red and I'm wearing tones that don't work with that, I am having a bad day. And where do you get your Russian manicure in LA? So I have a girl in LA who comes to my house. Brilliant. Yes. Okay. Yeah. And by the way, the cyclar in the amber tube, that would be the sacred centel. There we go. That's the name of the cent, everyone.

47:50I got the gifting and it went immediately in my bathroom. I didn't look. I was like, nope, this is it. Yeah. Awesome. I didn't look. So thank you for looking for me. Love it. I want to ask you about going out. What are people wearing out these days? I have no idea. So how do you like turn it up that you can wear? Yeah. To look fancy. Going out looks, I think are the most like heated topic on the internet. Yeah. Yeah. Where are we getting cute tops? Where like, what's the dress that we're going out in? It's really tough because I think especially, you know, when I was in my early twenties, it's like I was living in New York, going out, going to a club.

48:26And like what I was wearing then is very different than what I'm wearing now to like go to dinner with friends and have a drink. Yeah. I think people are going to be like, what a basic answer. But I'm a tried and true Reformation girl. I think that they make such good going out tops and they make something for everybody, which I really like. And I also feel like when I see it out in the world, everyone kind of styles it a little bit differently. I'm someone who still feels good, like in my blue jeans and a cute top. Like I rarely like put on a mini skirt to go out. And when I do, maybe I'll amp it up with like a knee high boot and like a big coat or a leather jacket.

49:03So yeah, I try not to overthink going out. Wardrobe too much. It's like, how can I just take what I'm wearing already and maybe make it a little bit more evening? I definitely don't have a separate wardrobe of like going out items. If anything, I feel like over the last decade, I've found like more refined items to go out. Maybe it's like a long sleeve top with like a keyhole cut out at the chest. That's like refined, chic, but still kind of gives evening. Do you know who's making great evening wear right now that I'm obsessed with is Stodd. Oh, yeah. I love Stodd. First of all, their boots are incredible.

49:39Talking about knee high boots. I have their black knee highs, black short ankle boots. Like I love Stodd, but they're making really cute kind of like a little black dress with, you know, a little like belt detail at the top where like your décolletage is like cute kind of moment there. They're making great going out tops, things that like feel fashionable. Right. But for evening. Yeah. Which again is really hard to do. And I think they do. Yeah. Yeah. I also have a brand based out of New York called Tay Park. They, you guys probably remember, they came out with like a corset top that had like the rouging around the neck.

50:17Right. Right. I absolutely love that brand. A little bit more of an investment brand, but when you get that top, you're going to wear it for years to come. The construction is incredible and Tay is an amazing designer. And all the tops are really great for going out. Okay. Yeah. My last one is a brand called Mimchick that I love that I support and wear all the time. They've got great going out items too. How do you spell that? Sorry? M-I-M-C-H-I-K. Okay. Yeah, they've got good like tops, little skirts. Actually, they made a custom dress for me for my bachelorette. It was like a little like tank dress with a bubble skirt and they make it in a bunch of different colors.

50:52I'm like, that's a fun going out dress. Is there anything you do to amp up makeup when you're going out? Do you ever go for like a strong lip look or is it a mascara? Is it a wing liner? What would be your going out essential? That's a great question. I probably go a little heavier on the eye. Okay. I have really big eyelids. There's a lot of real estate up there. Makeup artists must love you. It's fun. There's a lot of like room to play around. So maybe I'll add in like a little bit of a shimmer there. On a daily basis, I'm not someone that wears a lot of eyeshadow to begin with. I have very oily eyelids.

51:28Yeah. So they kind of have that shine on their own. But yeah, for a night, I'll probably bring in like a little bit of like a darker tone. I haven't done a winged eyeliner in a long time. Do we think winged eyeliner is on the way out? I think it's about to come back in a little bit. I think it's classic. Yeah. Yeah. That's a capsule one for me. Yeah. Yeah. I think it had its moment. Clean girls weren't wearing eyeliner, but I think next year we're going to definitely see it more. Even lip. I do the same color every day. Yeah? What is it? I'm a Charlotte Tilbury iconic nude girl. It just goes with my skin tone so well.

52:05And I think with the blush combo that I do, it just works. Yeah. And your brows. Might as well get it all since you wear it every day. I'm a big fan of brows. Brows to me are really special. I grew up in Los Angeles going to Anastasia as a kid. So she taught me to keep my brows big and unruly and not do anything to them. So I fill them in with Anastasia brow pencil. And then we'll use her brow freeze to keep them up. and I just kind of let them live their best life. But I will not leave the house without filling in my eyebrows. Like you won't see me without filling in eyebrows. Yeah. I used to henna them.

52:40My mom, my family's Moroccan. So my mom taught me how to henna dye them at a young age. I just think having a bold brow, like I could have no makeup on. Yes. And my brows could do all the talking. Yeah, that's absolutely true. It adds so much structure to the face. I feel like traditionally it would be a red lipstick that you would have as a capsule piece for when you want to like amp it up for a fancy event. But I just don't see a lot of people doing that in this day and age realistically. So I'm going to go ahead and recommend what I like to do, which is just like a lip liner look with a really high gloss on top of it and just kind of really try to plump them up.

53:21I think that's very modern. And the one that I'm really liking right now is this Ruffie limited edition plum lip collection This one just came out. I don't know if you guys have seen it. I'll take a plum lip over a red lip every day. Like something with a deeper tone, even in the summer when like maybe plum's not the go-to color. I'm still in that world. So I've seen quite a few girlies wearing this. Beautiful. Goes with your jacket. I think they got it. I think they got it sent. I think I saw Nara Smith. If she wasn't wearing this one, it was one very similar that she was putting on in a car.

53:55And her lips just look so beautiful. I've seen Ruby Lynn wear a look like this. Oh, that's beautiful. It's very kind of, again, that almost like Saint Laurent. Love, yeah. Kind of vibe where you can wear it with like a cute, like short dress and hosiery. Yep. And actual high heels. I think Chanel Beauty makes that color perfectly. I was just going to say my capsule piece is the Chanel Rouge. Yep, Chanel Rouge is incredible. Come on, if you're going to invest, this is the girl. Yep. Oh, yeah. That's$100 lipstick, everybody. Refillable. but it is it is so chic it's the limousine of lipsticks yeah let's be honest when chanel launched refillable lipsticks yeah i felt like the game changed yeah yeah well it also comes with its own little leather pouch which is white of course and it is it's not quilted but still it's it's pretty chic yeah it's it's gorgeous i will also say when we're talking about blush highlighter all that the chanel la beiges the sun kiss trio that they have it's like a round compact that has, it literally looks like a sun setting.

54:56It's so beautiful. But I will like literally put my brush in that and like go all around and like put that on my cheeks. And it's just kind of that one and done product that you can walk out of your house if you don't have time to like do the contour, the blush, the highlight. It's just like a nice, feels like you, it's literally like you sat in the sun. Yeah. Oh, I love that. Well, we're going to hit you with one more capsule collection question. Let's do it. Because you do travel so much. So speaking of that, what would be a couple of capsule pieces that you absolutely love to travel in, whether it's on the plane or just like when you touch down, what's worth investing in?

55:36What's your airport fit? Oh, my airport fit is from Aritzia, actually. It's a long sleeve, like cotton shirt that is just like my favorite thing in the world. It's linked on my shop, my like in my travel section. I have a lot of stuff in that travel section of like the things that I need. I feel like I'm a pro traveler at this point. Yeah. I get to the airport. I go through TSA. I'm in the lounge. Right. I have like my refillable capsules that I like put all my beauty products in. I know exactly like what is coming with me on the plane. I would say two products, beauty products that I take on the plane.

56:07And like if I'm taking off and they're not in my purse, I'm freaking out. Summer Fridays bomb is, I would say, my hero product. I literally know the lip butter bomb. There's one in every corner of my house. There's one in every purse. There's one in my car. I cannot function if that's not with me. I'm obsessed with it. It's so great. The other thing I go to Vanessa Hernandez skin here in Los Angeles. She's in Brentwood and she has a calming jelly mask and also under eye patches that I swear by. The under eye patches are like five dollars each, which is incredible. And I think the actual mask is$15 each.

56:45I buy them online in bulk and I take them every time I'm traveling. Yeah. They just, my skin looks, I look like a new person afterwards. So yes, I'm that person that's masking on the plane, but it's worth it for me. Absolutely. Might scare you. I love it. I love the cooling under eye too. Charlotte Tilbury came out with some and it's so like refreshing. Awesome. Thank you so much for your time today.
