Less Is More

“When I was a teenager, my mother took me to Elizabeth Arden for a makeup lesson. The aesthetician showed me how to brush my cheeks with a little blush and use subtle pink shadow on my eyelids. She kept saying, ‘Less is more.’ I still follow that philosophy; wearing too much makeup is aging. The less-is-more approach applies to skincare, too. When you use a lot of products, the combination of irritants and fragrances can do more harm than good.”

—New York City dermatologist Anne Chapas, MD
