Kicking The Day Off Right With Doe Deere

Doe Deere is the founder and lead designer of Lime Crime, a cosmetics brand available in most countries around the globe. Earlier this year, Savoir Flair, a digital magazine, got exclusive access to Ms. Deere's morning routine. Although everybody's different, the founder of a makeup company is certain to know several tricks that laymen - more like laywomen - likely don't know about.

Kicking The Day Off Right

Doe reports aiming for nine hours of sleep each night, waking up at 8:30 each morning. Oddly enough, she reports not having to rely on an alarm to wake herself, as her internal clock is quite accurate.

Living in arid Los Angeles, it's important to stay hydrated to boost skin condition. As such, Ms. Deere drinks a full glass of water each morning. Next, she strives to stretch every day - though, like most people, she forgets to some days. Breakfast comes after stretching. She reports enjoying grits - a hot cereal popular in the Southeast United States - fruit, orange juice, and yogurt.

Keeping Track Of Events And Obligations

Like most people in today's world, Doe Deere "[lives] by the calendar on [her] phone."

Lime Crime, her corporate creation, utilizes an internal company chat interface, allowing Doe to keep in touch with the inner workings of her business without risking data security breaches.

Deere likes to keep social media, computers, and other sources of digital information as far away as possible during the morning. However, she keeps up with emails throughout her day, though she aims to knock them out as frequently as possible in the mornings.

She reports listening to The Beatles while applying makeup, and enjoys listening to other classic music throughout each application session.

It's Time For The Products

Glossier face wash is Doe Deere's wash of choice, as it's quite mild, and smells of roses. Murad Hydro-Dynamic Quenching Essence comes next, an effective moisturizer that goes well with any look.

L'Oreal's True Match Foundation and MAC's Studio Fix foundations follow. Even though her company doesn't offer foundation, such a formula is currently in the works.

Doe Deere reports setting her makeup with powder, then moving on to filling in her brows. Contouring cheeks immediately fellows, with lips coming up next. She says applying blush and lipstick are the favorite parts of her daily cosmetics routine, as "color brings [her] face to life."

But How Long Does It Take?

Doe Deere reports getting ready in as little as fifteen minutes, though she might take her time and take up to an hour if important obligations are coming up that day. Ms. Deere likes to shower in the late evening, as she can avoid using hairdryers and prevent spending loads of time on drying hair and related responsibilities. She also waits until the evening to shower because her hair is dryer than as if she recently showered, allowing it to be appropriately styled by the morning.

Animals Can Be Woman's Best Friend

While dogs are the most commonly owned pet in the world, Doe Deere owns two Persian felines, named Chester von Battingham and Puffy Fluffles. She reports enjoying to treat them like kings, though their genders weren't stated in the interview.

She often gets to her office at Lime Crime's facility around midday, eats lunch there, then socializes with her team of executives. Deere strives to be done with work by 6 in the evening, although she reports staying until midnights, at times.
