Elyse Taylor shares her beauty secrets

Do you do homemade treatments?

I’ll do a sea salt and coconut butter scrub if I’m feeling dry. That’s as DIY as I get.

So no DIY haircuts?

Yeah, no (laughs). I learnt not to do that in primary school. Some failed fringes. 

Your eating ethos?

I’m on a blood type diet. After having a baby my body changed, and my body is my work, so unfortunately I have to work out all the time. I just try to incorporate a healthy lifestyle.

In your beauty bag?

Nude By Nature’s Natural Mineral Veil, which is good when you get shiny. Also, papaw ointment and a Dr Corbis scrub.

Your signature scent?

It’s discontinued! It was the brown Bulgari Omnia and I still find it online.

Beauty muse?

Actress-model Carolyn Murphy. She’s amazing.

Who does your delectable hair colour?

Jenna Perry at Ion in New York. It’s easier to find a good blonde in Sydney as it’s in the culture - that surfie blonde.

Has your beauty routine changed much with motherhood?

One hundred per cent! It’s shorter. I don’t wear much makeup if I’m not working to let my skin breathe, but if I do I like to keep it minimal.
