Mothers know best—especially so when it comes to looking like your best self. We ask the owners of Drunk Elephant, Supergoop, Tatcha and Ksisters to share the best skincare tips they hope their children will pick up
What’s one essential beauty tip that your mother has taught you to never forget? It’s completely normal for people to credit their mums for showing them certain skincare or makeup tips and tricks they’ve picked up over the years. And that’s the beauty of it all—the lessons passed down from one generation to another in the interest of achieving healthy skin and, well, near-perfect makeup skills.
This Mother’s Day, we ask four beauty brand owners—from a South Korean K-beauty expert to the founders of world renowned beauty brands—to share the most important beauty tips they hope their children will learn from them and how motherhood has inspired them to strive for success.

What is the most important skincare or beauty tip that you’d like to pass on to your children?
“If she takes away just one thing from me, I hope she remembers that what’s good for the body is good for the skin. That’s because our skin is a reflection of our mental, physical, and spiritual health. Ingredients like rice, green tea, and seaweed, which have been staples of the nutrient-rich Japanese diet for centuries, do wonders for the skin. Everything you expose yourself to, whether it's skincare you put on your face, the environment you live in, or the food that you eat, it’s all a reflection of how you honour your body. You only get one in this life—treat it well!”
—Vicky Tsai, founder, Tatcha
“Use suncream every single day with enough amount. Sun exposure is 90 per cent of your ageing cause. So before you find any good skincare product, finding the right SPF product is most important for your healthy skin! It is all about priorities.”
—Jungmin Lee, founder, Ksisters and Jung Beauty
