“I prefer to name Submarine an album of solitude, exploration, and alter. Josh [Conway], The Marías’ producer and drummer, and I had been in a relationship for seven years. We ended the romantic a part of our relationship after our first album, and that threw us into a special state of consciousness the place we may rediscover who we had been in a brand new dynamic. ‘No One Seen,’ one in all my favourite songs from the album, completely encapsulates what I used to be feeling on the time. As for our tour, we wished to create an otherworldly expertise for our followers for a few hours, and I believe we did that.
In LA, my model of ‘going out’ is simply going to dinner, after which coming house and watching The Nice British Bake Off. [Laughs] I like Izakaya Osen and Kenbey in Silver Lake. They’re each sushi spots and actually scrumptious. I ate at Amour, a French spot in West Hollywood, lately. It’s fairly dear, however I might eat there once more as soon as in a blue moon. Oh, Lolo is a tried-and-true staple. If I desire a traditional branzino and a salad, I’ll go there. However all through our tour, ‘going out’ means internet hosting our ‘Freak Marine After Events.’ Josh DJs, they usually’re a lot enjoyable.
SKINCARE
After I’m on stage, my look wants to have the ability to stand up to the whole thing of the present, together with an element the place I submerge myself in a bath stuffed with water. That mentioned, I don’t do something loopy to prep for make-up. I cleanse with Cerave to get no matter filth and make-up are already on my face. I like that it doesn’t foam as a result of foam cleansers are inclined to dry my pores and skin out. I’ve additionally used toners previously which have damaged me out, and to date, Barbara Sturm’s hasn’t. It’s fairly dear, however I do suppose it’s value it. Plus, you may actually stretch it out to make it final.
My dermatologist, Dr. Heather Roberts, really helpful her vitamin C. I pat it on, watch for it to dry, after which throw on squalane oil from The Unusual, which she additionally really helpful years in the past after I had loopy dermatitis. I like that the vitamin C doesn’t have a scent, and I’ve actually observed a distinction since I began utilizing it. My pores and skin is each brighter and extra even in texture.
Relating to hydration, I like SkinCeuticals’ Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 moisturizer. It leaves my pores and skin feeling plump and dewy. I finished utilizing it after I pared down my routine after I was coping with dermatitis, and I may actually see the distinction in hydration. After I began utilizing it once more, I used to be like, ‘OK. That is good. For my eyes, I like Biossance’s squalane eye cream as a result of it’s actually gentle however moisturizes simply sufficient. I’ve tried a bunch of eye lotions and it’s my favourite. I swear by it.
MAKEUP
Leticia Llesmin, my make-up artist, travels with me. We’ve been working collectively for 3 years now, and she or he actually understands that I like a pure, nearly no-makeup look. In fact, we do outline every little thing a bit extra since I’m on stage underneath shiny lights. We begin off with Chanel’s Vitalumière Aqua. It’s tremendous gentle and silky and covers simply sufficient to even out my pores and skin. I’ll by no means use the rest, I believe. It simply provides me this actually nice dewy end.
I like Make Up For Ever’s eye pencil—it gained’t budge the complete night time. I additionally love the way it goes on easily and doesn’t drag. For eyeshadow, we’ve been utilizing Chanel’s Parure Venitienne quad. We use a whole lot of browns with a bit little bit of coral, however we’ve additionally experimented with some blues and glitters and that’s at all times enjoyable.
Chanel’s waterproof mascara is nice all-around with quantity and size—and it doesn’t clump and it’s not too dramatic—so I exploit it for reveals but in addition in my day by day life. It lasts via my water second, but it surely’s not too troublesome to get off on the finish of the night time. And I’ve been utilizing Glossier’s Boy Forehead for a very long time. It’s actually versatile. If I wish to have a full eyebrow second, I can accomplish that, and if I wish to go tremendous pure, I can accomplish that, too. I’ve used different ones and I’ve thought, ‘No, this doesn’t hit as onerous.’
I like to overline my lips a bit bit with Make Up For Ever’s lip liner in 3C—I exploit it day by day. The colour blends out very well with my Chanel liquid lipstick in Tender Rose, which is just about the identical coloration as my lips, simply enhanced a bit bit. It goes on like a gloss however then it dries matte and stays on the complete night time. I haven’t used one other lip product fairly prefer it.
HAIR
On tour, Leticia will do these ‘90s twisties in my hair to offer me a type of grunge moist look. We use R+CO’s pomade and the look lasts the complete night time. It was essential to me that the product be alcohol-free and never horrible for my hair as a result of I’d be utilizing it night time after night time. And contemplating the quantity of product we’ve used all through the tour, my hair’s in fairly fine condition. I’ve to scrub it each night time after all. Davines’ Love shampoo and conditioner are so light and scent so good. I put some Davines hair oil on my ends after I get out of the bathe, too. I blow dry it after but it surely takes me all of 10 minutes as a result of I acquired a mild keratin remedy at Hairroin earlier than the tour. That’s been a life-changer.
NAILS + FRAGRANCE
I like darkish nails, however I don’t desire a stark black shade. As a substitute, I at all times paint them with the identical shade of darkish purple from OPI—Lincoln Park After Darkish. After which I put on Maison Louis Marie’s No.04 Bois de Balincourt fragrance oil. I’m not the very best at describing it, but it surely’s woody and spicy. I truly watched a TikTok that mentioned Unhealthy Bunny wears it, too. In my condominium, I’ve been burning Glossier’s Orange Blossom Neroli candle. It smells so good, and I like the vessel.”
