Magnificence Editor Home Tour: Jean Godfrey-June’s Clear WFH Routine

If it’s clear and even vaguely beauty-related, I’ve tried it—or I’m within the means of doing so. And if I’m attempting a magnificence product, house (the place I’ve labored for the reason that begin of the pandemic) is the place it occurs. Every single day, containers of magnificence merchandise arrive within the mail—which is form of like getting a gift and form of like getting a pile of labor.
What’s on My Kitchen Island
I unwrap and initially edit via all the brand new ones on a desk in my kitchen. However I additionally maintain a number of magnificence necessities within the kitchen—I’m all the time in there, so why not moisturize? Right here’s what I cram onto my heart island together with the spoons and spatulas.
1
Within the mornings, I placed on vitamin C (see beneath), then run downstairs to make espresso. As soon as the vitamin C has actually sunk in to do its work, this wonderful therapy cream is subsequent.
2
5 or ten minutes after that, I would want an additional layer of moisture (I’m 58), wherein case I pat on this unbelievable oil from Annee de Mamiel. She makes a very new oil tailor-made to every season, and you must do this one to know how unbelievable it’s.
3
I’m obsessive about lip balm. I maintain the brand new pinky-brown tint from the goop lip balm trio within the kitchen—it’s sheer sufficient that I by no means want a mirror.
What’s in My “Workplace”
My workplace is only a desk subsequent to a particularly snug chair in my front room. Individuals on Zoom or Groups all the time say, “Oh, I like your background,” and it’s principally a ficus tree that appeared useless once I purchased the home however perked proper up with a little bit water and solar. Crops make me really feel like an area is alive. New York within the winter is absolutely grim—having vegetation inside retains me going with some California vibes. I’m all the time sitting there in what was my grandmother’s favourite chair (individuals scoff at it till they’ve sat in it, after which they perceive), writing, modifying, or doing conferences. I additionally check numerous magnificence merchandise there. However past what I’m testing, I maintain a number of necessities inside attain.
1
You understand these conferences the place everybody turns off their digital camera? My favourite factor to do: I’m obsessive about this very new, very cool laser known as the LYMA. You simply maintain it on a wrinkle, wherever it’s, for 3 minutes. And so you may completely take part in your assembly, however on the similar time you’re doing the LYMA, which, once you see the before-and-afters, it’s loopy—particularly the one which reveals outcomes on an individual’s knees.
2
Earlier than any assembly, I swipe a little bit Kosas Rosewater on my lips—after which dab a little bit from my lips onto the apples of my cheeks. Again within the days of getting an workplace, we (the entire goop NYC workforce) used this trick after which had been all the time asking each other, “Wait. Did you get your make-up accomplished?”
3
I put sunscreen in a number of spots in my home, however it’s particularly key within the workplace, as a result of it’s a brilliant sunny spot. I easy it between the backs of my palms after I wash them.
What’s on My Lavatory Sink
My upstairs lavatory is the place the lion’s share of the sweetness analysis occurs. There are numerous magnificence merchandise in there. It’s a little bit loopy, however it is my job. I even have all the weather of my common routine up there:
1
I don’t cleanse within the mornings. I used to have oily pores and skin, so I cleansed on a regular basis. However I don’t have to anymore. So the very first thing I do—and all people ought to do that, whether or not you’re 17 or 87—is vitamin C. This vitamin C particularly is made with moisturizing hyaluronic acid, and also you combine it once you first get it, so it stays potent. It makes a noticeable distinction in how alive you look. Begin utilizing it and, after every week or two, and any person will likely be like, “What are you doing to your pores and skin?”
2
I do cleanse at evening. I begin by taking off eye make-up, if I’m sporting any. There are hardly any clear eye make-up removers, and this one not solely exists however is unbelievable. It’s from Grown Alchemist, and it actually works. Then I cleanse. I’ve been testing this new model known as DAMDAM. I’m additionally tremendous into the GOOPGLOW exfoliating jelly cleanser; I alternate. The jelly cleanser is so light, however it additionally makes me really feel like I’ve bought every thing off my pores and skin.

Typically I tone with this essence from Furtuna Pores and skin. It’s attractive. In a pinch, it really works as a (milder) eye make-up remover, too.
4
I bought to check this famous person for a few months earlier than it launched, so I’m actually seeing the advantages: It helps with all the consequences of solar injury, from uneven pores and skin tone and tough texture to wrinkles. What’s wonderful is that it’s made with time-released alpha hydroxy acids, so that you get a right away exfoliating profit, after which, in a single day, it really works and works and works. It’s capable of go additional and do extra however not irritate your pores and skin. I easy it on most nights proper earlier than mattress.
5
If my pores and skin is very dry after Sleep Milk or if I’ve simply placed on vitamin C and I’m needing moisture, I wait a couple of minutes, then easy on this face cream, which delivers therapy (peptides, ceramides, botanicals) with the hydration.
6
I like a shower within the night, and I actually love “The Martini.” Twenty minutes within the tub offers me an excellent sweat and a while to learn.

The Sauna That Was a Shed
We (I say we, however I actually imply my boyfriend) constructed this sauna throughout COVID out of some Craigslist components and a really outdated, very broken-down shed. We go in it nearly each single day.
1
The very first thing I do earlier than I get within the sauna is hair serum. If you happen to’ve by no means tried it, you must: You actually see a distinction in your hair once you use it: It offers me shine and bounce and likewise this unbelievable texture. I put the serum via the lengths of my hair so it form of protects them whereas I’m within the warmth, and on the similar time, I feel the warmth helps it go deep.
2
As soon as I’m within the sauna, I like to dry brush. It’s the OG goop product; there’s no specific method past going towards your coronary heart. You simply don’t wish to do it so exhausting that it hurts—it’s all about waking up your pores and skin and feeling good.
3
I maintain this balm—it’s very aptly known as Elegant, and it’s so wealthy—within the sauna. As with the hair serum, I really feel like warmth helps the moisture sink in. It leaves your pores and skin so glowy and dewy, you received’t consider it.
4
I couldn’t be extra into this physique oil. It smells so good, and it sinks in like a miracle. You’ll be able to put in your outfit like three minutes after you’ve smoothed it on (not that I’m placing on outfits within the sauna). As soon as I’m all oiled up, I sit within the sauna and simply take up and drink within the scent.
The Ice-Chilly Outside Bathe
We improved upon the sauna by including a chilly bathe—it’s a backyard hose connected to a $40 rain showerhead from Amazon—for the total Wim Hof impact.
1
The important thing right here is Microderm: one for face, one for physique. You get each bodily and chemical exfoliation to easy away useless pores and skin for an unbelievable glow. I depart the face model on for about two minutes whereas I do the remainder of the bathe. (Sure, it’s chilly! However I watched this episode of The goop Lab and I’m satisfied.)
I exfoliate and cleanse throughout with this scrub-bodywash mixture. It smells so good, feels so good—it’s a tube of full-body happiness.

For the reason that serum has been in my hair for 20 minutes within the sauna (the Huberman Lab podcast, which works via all of the science, recommends 20 minutes for a primary go within the sauna), now’s once I wash it out. Scrub shampoos usually depart your hair type of dry, however this one is moisturizing. Your hair is so delicate afterward—particularly mixed with the consequences of the serum.
3
This frizz-obliterating conditioner is tremendous nourishing, smells wonderful, and rinses proper out, and I like, love, love the packaging. Something Grown Alchemist is tough to withstand, however that is the final word.
