Meet Jenni Kayne; designer of an all-encompassing lifestyle brand rooted in California minimalism (and our Tribeca store neighbor) who makes everything she does look so effortlessly chic.
Jenni is sharing her motivation to clean up her beauty routine, her tried and true skincare picks, what she plans to live in from her collection this fall and more.
What is your key to balancing work and being a mom?
It's always a challenging balance, but I try to be very present in the moment. Whether I'm working or when I'm with my kids, I give all my attention to what I'm doing. I also have a great team at work and at home. Without them, I'd be all over the place.

When did you become interested in clean beauty? How did you get there?
When I was pregnant with my first son, Tanner, who is almost 12, I cleaned up my entire beauty routine and diet. I came to realize how toxic beauty and cleaning products could be, and I really changed the way I lived inside and out.

What are you reading this summer?
I just read 'The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate' by Gary Chapman and loved it.

What's keeping you spiritually centered at the moment?
I always feel the most grounded when I'm surrounded by nature. I also try to meditate on a regular basis to clear my head and feel connected.
I use all of Marie Veronique and Kristina Holey’s products. I couldn’t live without them! The C-Therapy Serum is my absolute favorite.
What has been your go to outfit this summer?
I’m usually wearing an Eres bathing suit with our Linen Midi Tie Skirt as a cover up. I always like to bring a layer, so I keep our Linen Stanford Cardigan or Cotton Cocoon Cardigan on hand. And our Strap Sandals, always.

JENNI'S FAVORITE PICKS

| I don’t like wearing makeup but I love wearing a light tinted moisturizer. BeautyCounter Dew Skin has been my favorite for years and I love that it has SPF! |

I feel like retinol is one of the only proven things for anti-aging and there aren’t many clean versions on the market. I swear by Marie Veronique Gentle Retinol Night Serum and use it every night. |
