Facialist Vaishaly Patel Shares Her Beauty Dozen
For glow…
I use my own branded Vaishaly Night Nourisher religiously. It gives you glowing healthy skin that is plump, even, and hydrated. I also use a tiny drop under my make-up to give it that dewy look.
Vaishaly Night Nourisher, £75
For foundation...
Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation gives enough coverage to make your skin look flawless without looking like you're wearing foundation – genius.
Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation, £32
For bright eyes…
I love Nars Creamy Concealer. It gives great coverage, leaves skin super smooth and really brightens the whole eye area.
Nars Creamy Concealer, £24
For brows…
Bobbi Brown Brow Kit in dark brown is a great colour for filling in my brows and lasts all day.
Bobbi Brown Dark Brow Kit, £38
For nails…
I always choose Shellac manis and pedis. I normally go for the CND shades Romantique or Naked Naivete but when I go on holiday I opt for a lovely red called Wildfire.
CND Shellac Colours
For lips…
I love NYX Matte Lip-gloss in the shade Stockholm. It’s cheap and cheerful and stays put for hours.
NYX Matte Lip-gloss, £6
For fragrance…
I have worn Issey Miyake L’eau D’issey for 25 years and I can’t imagine I’ll ever swap it for anything else. It’s the perfect light floral.
Issey Miyake L’eau D’Issey, £61
For hair…
I’m faithful to Shu Uemura Art of Hair Essence Absolue Nourishing Protective Oil. I use it on both wet and dry hair. It’s lightweight and not greasy at all.
Shu Uemura Art of Hair Essence Absolue Nourishing Protective Oil, £33.30
For colour…
Shai Greenberg, the founder of Gielly Green, is the best colourist I’ve ever had. He really takes pride and care of your hair.
For a cut…
Nando Lopes at Richard Ward has cut my hair forever. He’s the best. His blow dries are amazing too; you feel like a million dollars when you walk out the salon.
For a deep treatment...
Philip Kingsley Elasticiser is the best mask I’ve ever used. It leaves my hair super silky and smooth.
Philip Kingsley Elasticiser, £18.50
For feeling zen…
Dr Tran is my mentor, Buddhist teacher and acupuncturist. I see him once a month and have done for ten years. He taught me how to meditate and keeps me emotionally and physically centered.
