on nervous systems, ocean swims and the ritual of slowing down.
The first thing Eva will tell you about beauty is that it has very little to do with products. Some beauty secrets arrive in a bottle. Eva’s arrive in a slower morning, an ocean swim and the sense of calm that comes from a nervous system that finally feels settled. We asked Eva for her beauty secrets, and they’re simpler than you think.

What is your strangest beauty secret?
Maybe how much I believe that beauty starts with slowing down. Less rushing, more sleep, hydration, sunlight, ocean swims, good food, and actually feeling calm in myself. I notice the biggest glow in my skin when my nervous system feels settled.
What is one beauty product you cannot live without?
Definitely a hydrating skin mist. My skin loves anything simple, dewy and nourishing. Especially something that makes me feel fresh without needing makeup. I’ve really leaned into romanticising my skincare routine and creating a ritual. Adding a mist just levels it up completely !
What is your go-to Strange Luxury product & why?
My go-to SL product(s) are 100% the Barrier Balance Cream and Super Hydration Serum. I fell in love with both these products years ago, and they’ve been a part of my daily skin ritual ever since. I love how light and gentle they are. My skin feels naked without them !!
What is your current obsession right now?
I’ve been OBSESSED with icing my face. My skin feels so tight and rejuvenated.
