Kaia Gerber developed skincare routine after getting lonely in hotel rooms
Kaia Gerber has revealed spending hours on end alone in hotel rooms made her decide to start looking after her skin.
Kaia Gerber developed a skincare routine after getting "lonely in hotel rooms".
The 19-year-old model has revealed spending hours biding her time at hotels "prompted" her to start looking after her skin "better".
She told Vogue's Beauty Secrets: “I found I would get really lonely in hotel rooms.
“That’s why I developed a skincare routine, because it was something familiar that I would do every night when I got home … That’s what prompted me to start taking better care of my skin."
Amid the global pandemic, the catwalk beauty has been able to "evolve" her routine as she spent a year off work.
She added: “I’m really appreciative of the year that I’ve had off because I’ve been able to evolve with my skincare routine and figure out a more updated version."
Kaia swears by using a roller to sculpt her face and revealed that her father, business Rande Gerber, started stealing them.
She explained: “I think everyone should roll their face.
“I had so many different rollers and they all started going missing, and I found out that it was my dad who was stealing them!"
Kaia - whose mother is supermodel Cindy Crawford - spends 20 minutes day and night applying her lotions and potions and said it's a meditative experience.
She added: “I feel like skincare is one form of meditation for me, like I know I have that 20 minutes in the morning and night that I’m just doing something for myself.”
Kaia also revealed she opts for minimal make-up to give her skin a breather when she's not working.
She said: “Now, because my job involves experimenting with make-up, I tend to tone it down."
