Millie Bobby Brown on Florence by Mills, Stranger Things, and Self-Care
What’s the last rabbit hole you went down on Instagram or YouTube?
Probably Jake Paul and Tana Mongeau’s wedding. I went in such a deep hole, and I could not get out of it. I was like, “What is happening right now?”
You’re stranded on a desert island, what are three products you bring with you?
Well, I mean if it’s a desert island, it’s going to be hot, so definitely moisturizer. Then probably my lip oil and a cleanser, because I could just use the ocean water to wash it off.
What color are you loving on your nails right now?
I haven’t had my nails done for a really long time, but right now, it’s purple.
What’s your favorite getting ready music?
I love Taylor Swift’s new album Lover. “London Boy” is my favorite song ever.
How much time do you spend getting ready normally?
You know, for an event and stuff, it takes maybe an hour and a half. But for everyday, less than five minutes. I just put my moisturizer on. And then at night, when I’m winding down, that takes me about 20 minutes—just cleansing slowly, moisturizing, taking off all my makeup.
Are you strict about taking your makeup off or do you fall asleep in it from time to time?
No, I’m pretty religious about my skin care routine. I wake up, put my moisturizer on, put my Swimming Under The Eyes Gel Pads on, and then go to work. I also like steam my face once a month. Oh! And I do a face mask every Friday night.
I love the little whale eye patches.
That was my idea from day one, and that was really difficult to get the shape right on those.
Why whales?
Because I believe that every animal should be in the wild and be free, and whales especially are such an angelic animal that deserve to be in the ocean. I’ve always had a love for how majestic and beautiful they are, so I wanted to involve them.
What’s your favorite way to take a moment for yourself?
I like to watch TV or YouTube—Friends is always my go-to—or I like to call my friends and hang out with my family. I also like to clean. I know that sounds crazy, but my room, I love a good clean. It feels very therapeutic for me.
