Leila Yavari Shares Her Paris Fashion Week Beauty Diary Inline

I’m working on making the switch, but my current compromise is to have both—with coffee intake limited to one small cup a day, only when absolutely needed. When traveling, I try to enjoy it with a good view.”

I also swear by Melem lip balm from Croatia, a buttery all-natural formula designed to battle the harshest winters, and CC cream from Korea. Finally, the Cult51 Immediate Effect serum: This is an anti-aging treatment that can be used at any age—the earlier the better—to stimulate collagen and activate cell regeneration, giving you a fresher, rested look. It’s my constant ally during fashion month.”

I mostly favor Ashtanga yoga, and when I travel, it’s 30-minute sessions in the hotel gym or in my room. My mat is now the first thing I pack—I like the Manduka Prolite for its durability—along with Stella McCartney for Adidas leggings and a Nike sports bra.”
