Exclusive Interview: Camille of VintageMakeUp.fr Shares 6 Beauty Secrets

Interview with Camille from VintageMakeUp.fr

1. Tell us about yourself in a few lines.

I'm Camille, 28 years old, and I founded Vintage Make-up eight years ago. I'm a mom to a nearly 3-year-old girl and live in Lille. At 19, I modeled for Karl Lagerfeld, sparking my passion for makeup. I learned techniques from pros, starting with iconic vintage looks. Now, I prioritize organic, natural cosmetics with short, clean ingredient lists. On vintagemakeup.fr, I share beauty tips, product picks, subscription boxes, and services like wedding makeup or bachelorette workshops with pro artists.

2. When did you realize organic and natural skincare was essential?

My shift was gradual, aligning with my vegetarianism five years ago. I first sought cruelty-free brands, then explored organic labels, swapping conventional products for natural alternatives.

3. What are your everyday beauty routines?

Hydration is non-negotiable: I start with a hydrating serum to boost radiance. I focus makeup on eyes most days, giving my complexion a break to breathe—full face only once or twice weekly. Evenings always end with thorough makeup removal, using organic micellar water and reusable Liberty-pattern cotton pads, regardless of the hour. I also dedicate one makeup-free day weekly.

4. Tips for sticking to beauty rituals?

I schedule them: Monday hair mask and organic pink clay facial. Midweek scrub. For makeup removal, I keep micellar water and pads visibly on my bathroom counter as a reminder.

5. Do you adapt your routines regularly?

Seasonally, yes. Summer means minimal exfoliation to preserve my tan; winter brings richer moisturizers, including overnight face cream, with hand and foot creams everywhere.

6. Your current favorite natural beauty routine?

This spring, rose water post-cleanse and mornings—its scent refreshes my skin instantly.
