In a city known for its restless pace, a conversation with actress Leslie Bibb offers an unmistakable vitality shock. “Your dress looks so white lotus!” The actress shares with enthusiasm, massaging Elizabeth Arden’s serum and moisturizer on the top of my hands.

Everyone knows the name Elizabeth Arden. What was the first introduction to the line?
“I was telling these guys yesterday, they sent me other products home and started crying. Looking at the advanced ceramide capsules, I was filled with memories. I suddenly returned to my high school, Richmond home.
Elizabeth Arden capsule! We had never seen anything like that before. That was my first intro… my mother uses those capsules. I thought they were the coolest. Someone then took all the guesswork out and said, “Here’s what you should put in your face, here’s what’s good in your face.” They did it and I just thought they were so cool. This is the first time I remember. I also love the 8 hour cream. It feels like every make-up artist has or has that cream there. That was my first foray… I think it was announced in the 1990s, but the company has been around for 115 years! ”
Classic.
“Isn’t that cool? There’s nothing old in America. There’s something here that really stands the test of time and is an advocate for women’s skincare.
Also, you may feel that skincare is going to be a lot of steps, so go this step, and this step, and then here, do it, do it. You lost me. What I like about their lines is that you wash your face, use toner, and use your serum. Then I’m really into it, this is a water pumped water cream. It is on the same line as the new capsule. I love it! Can I open it? Can you paint it in your hands? ”
yes of course.
“I’m not saying I’m not being paid for this, but I’m obsessed with this part because you don’t bother me more than spending money on the product, so you squeeze it out, squeeze it out, squeeze it out. This pump, I don’t know, I don’t know, look at this pump. But I like it because I can sometimes go a little more and then use too much.
Very cool. I remember when we spoke before you said you had experienced acne. Does this work out all?
“Yes, but that’s the matter. Someone asked me before. ‘What have you learned over time?’ I think it’s fascinating… I don’t know if other people feel this way, but forever, I always thought I wouldn’t be able to use something like that if I had dry skin.
Finally, my facial is, “You’re making it worse. It’s like you keep robbing your skin from what it needs. It’s an excess of oil because you’re trying to make up for what you’re dry.” The great thing about this line is that you can use it if you have oily skin. Can be used if you have dry skin. Very user-friendly for all skin types. Again, sometimes you go to the store and you’re like this: “Is this for my skin?” Then you’re there, you bought the wrong thing, you wasted money, you opened it, and you’re there!
Using skincare that doesn’t work makes me hooked. You wear this good, juicy thing, then you put on your makeup and then your makeup just starts to peel off. Then you’re scrubbing your face. I don’t know. I like this about this line, it doesn’t happen. That’s because a lot has happened to me. When you’re wearing hair and makeup, they’re like, “What did you put on your face?”
It’s not very good for makeup…
“Yes, exactly, you have to go back and start from scratch. It’s not this. Once you’ve got your skin ready with Elizabeth Arden, the makeup is lying on it and you won’t get confused.
Your makeup looks great. You’re traveling a ton, and a lot is going on this week. It’s a busy time. How do you maintain your sanity when you’re on a plane or when you go?
“I wish I had sleep, but I wish it would improve. People said, ‘Do you want to be able to fly or breathe underwater?’ I said, ‘I want to be able to sleep anywhere on the plane, or take cat naps.’
Now when I’m really busy, that’s not a very sexy answer, but I don’t drink alcohol. Alcohol and your skin go together like peanut butter and poop! They don’t go well together. It’s not sexy. It’s more fun, but there’s no alcohol on this kind of thing right now!
Another big thing I do is that I travel with a mixing bowl, get the ice and do a bath of these ice. I think it’s great to wake me up and recharge your skin. All the blood is pumped. Next, wash your face, put on an ice bath, put on toner, then do the serum, then use a juicy moisturizer. Then you start to start your makeup, and that’s it. I also keep it to a minimal routine. ”
Keep it simple.
“I’m always shrepping everything, but it breaks or opens. You open your bag and say, ‘Oh, this went everywhere’, it happens all the time with my shampoo.
