Co-founder of gabi Dubai, Sheyma AlHammadi, shares her morning to evening beauty routine.
Talk us through your morning routine.
My morning routine is quite simple but effective. I start by washing my face with a cleanser,
then follow up with a toner, moisturiser, and of course, I never skip sunblock to protect my skin throughout the day. All the products I use are from my favorite brand, Treat.
And how about your evening routine?
My nighttime routine is a bit more intensive than my morning one. I start by washing my face with the Rhode Skin cleanser, followed by their Glazing Milk. Then, I apply the Glazing Fluid, and I finish with their moisturiser. The texture of the moisturizer is perfect for using a gua sha to massage my face and neck, which really helps to relax and de-stress before bed.
What are your go-to skincare products?
My go-to skincare products are definitely Treat by Yara Al Namlah and the “Rhode Skin” kit by Hailey Bieber. These are my absolute favourites for keeping my skin feeling its best.
Are you a fan of masks?
Yes, I love face masks. I actually make mine at home using natural ingredients. I always set aside one day a week just for my face mask routine.
How would you describe your relationship with makeup?
I love makeup. I love how it enhances our natural beauty. For me, it’s all about focusing on the skin to achieve that healthy, glowing look by using the right products that work well with my skin.
What can always be found in your makeup bag?
One thing that’s always in my makeup bag is tinted lip balm. It’s a must-have for me.
Let’s talk fragrance. What are you loving at the moment?
I have a favourite perfume that I wear every day, but right now, I’m loving “Fleur de Peony” from Aerin Beauty. It’s such a lovely scent.
How do you choose your evening fragrance?
I choose my evening fragrance based on what feels right for the occasion, but my all-time favourite is Myrrh & Tonka by Jo Malone.
Talk us through your hair routine.
My hair routine starts with using a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Right now, I’m loving Amika The Kure. After washing, I apply the Gisou Hair Oil to the ends of my hair. It leaves my hair feeling incredibly moisturised, shiny, and smelling great.
What is the most unusual item in your makeup bag?
The most unusual item in my makeup bag is probably the Kosas Plump and Juicy Vegan Collagen Spray
On Serum. It’s not your typical makeup bag staple, but it’s great for refreshing my makeup and keeping my skin dewy and vibrant throughout the day.
