This month, we caught up with retired NBA Champion Matt Barnes who played 14 seasons in the league. His ability to bring his energy and focus to the court was seen on a number of teams from the LA Lakers, Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings just to name a few. His unapologetic honesty and loyalty to himself as well as who he works with shined through on the court and continues to be seen through his philanthropy, his skincare brand HUE For Every Man, the cannabis industry, as well as his focus on social justice. With the confluence of COVID-19 and the movement of #BlackLivesMatter, he continues to be at the forefront of ensuring that voices are heard and that people understand the importance of voting at the local, state and national level for changes to be made. He has lent his voice to rally's in his hometown of Sacramento for George Floyd as well as Stephon Clark. We talk about this as well as his successful podcast All the Smoke on SHOWTIME, his enterprises and the upcoming NBA season and playoffs and the importance of sports as we navigate challenging times. ATHLEISURE MAG: We just wanted to kick it off that we’re excited to be talking with you about your basketball career, your skincare brand as well as the current state of things that are taking place right now. We’ve always enjoyed seeing you and have been following your career since you got into the league and how unapoligetically authentic that you are as a team player and someone that plays hard and how you use your platform to benefit others and to just bring awareness to the forefront. MATT BARNES: I appreciate that very much. I try and I enjoy it so thank you. AM: Of course! When did you fall in love with the game of basketball and what was the moment that you realized that you wanted to play in the NBA? MB: I’d probably say that I fell in love with the game of basketball – hmm. I actually grew up as a football fan. Football was the sport that I was better in and natural-
lly more gifted in. But I continued to grow so basketball, I kind of picked it up and started taking it more seriously probably around 7th grade. That’s when I started really playing a lot more. But back then, we just played, it wasn’t so much working out. It was just another sport that I took seriously. It kind of took me to being lucky enough to make it to the NBA. AM: You played on a number of teams with amazing athletes. What do you feel your legacy is in terms of the sport? MB: Just a real guy that was a great teammate. I played as absolutely hard as I could and I never took a play off, never took a game off and I left it all on the court. AM: In your opinion, when a player is going on in their career, what is the process like when you realize that you’re going to retire and that you’re about to transition to that next phase of life and did you find that hard? MB: My retirement was kind of subtle. I had just signed a new contract for 3 years at the beginning of the season. I had actually just retired and it was actually just a perfect storm of winning a championship although it didn’t really pan out the way that I had planned it but, winning a championship and missing my kids – I mean, I was going through a divorce at the time when I wasn’t able to see my twin sons as much as I wanted to. I figured that I had gotten 14 years in the NBA and I wasn’t supposed to be there. I figured it was time to transition and to see what was next. I was actually excited about my transition so I ended up retiring at 37. But I started to think about business and what was next. I mean, the average NBA career is only 3 years and I beat that. At about year 8 or 9 when I was in the NBA, I started thinking about what’s next. So I started investing in things that I kind of enjoyed, that I liked, that I could use and that I could promote. Most people think that kind of stuff happens fast – they don’t realize how long the process is until
if the company actually makes it and until you start making some real money off of it. A few business decisions that I had made 4 or 5 years prior with me being in my final season when I had made the championship started coming into fruition and showing a little bit of money, so that’s when I said that now was the time to retire. My transition has been smooth for me, luckily. I’ve been able to transition into media, then social justice and all the things that I am passionate about along with first and foremost, being a single father of 3 kids. I coach my kids, and I am a very hands on dad with my 18 month old son, so retirement has been amazing and I feel like, I’m going to be able to have an impact on the world post-career than during my playing career.
rican American men that are able to get our point across. They don’t have to tell our stories anymore. You know, there are so many guys that have their platforms now that have a voice and they can tell our own stories now and sports is just part of it.
AM: We love seeing you as an analyst on ESPN for The Jump (we recently had Rachel Nichols as our cover for issue #51 earlier this year) and Get Up. What do you like about sports broadcasting?
MB: I mean my hair, when I was approached by HUE and I found out first and foremost that it was a great product line, but then Jessica Estrada (CEO of HUE For Every Man), she has been amazing. She pours her heart and soul into this company. She’s a blue collar worker and that’s what I was in the NBA, so part of me really wanted to help her to fulfill her dream and to get this off the ground. I wanted to see what we could really do with it. On the multi-cultural side, I’m Italian and Black. Now more than ever, we’ve been divided and so many things are targeted for either a white audience or a Black audience. There’s no real in between and there are a lot of people who are in between these days. There are a lot of biracial people out there. So really, the message for every man is that at the end of the day, we’re all men, we’re all human and it kind of speaks to more of an understanding of what this country needs right now.
MB: What I like to do and why I got into the space, is to give them the other side from a players point of view. From what we’re thinking with 2 mins to go in the fourth quarter of a big game or overtime of a big game. How we deal with injuries or how we deal with family and travel. Like, you can be a great reporter, but would never be able to give that kind of insight or detail because you’ve never played. I think as a player, it’s our duty to give the raw and real integral details of what makes our job so unique and so special. I see these days that so often so many people that have never played the sport, want to disrespect people and talk crazy about people and kind of don’t appreciate how hard it is for us to be in that position in the first place. You know what I mean – to be a professional that’s like 1%. You have a better chance of being struck by lightening than being in the NBA. To give a clear cut understanding of what it’s like to walk in those shoes and then to be able to also talk about it for the first time – well not for the first time, it’s slowly but surely becoming more popular to have Af-
AM: What led you to being a part of HUE For Every Man which is a natural, multi-cultural brand. What stars aligned to do this and why was it so important that you wanted to be attached to this? MB: I was always known during my career for having the best haircuts and cleanest hairline. AM: This is true.
AM: What are your 3 must haves that are go to products within HUE For Every Man? MB: I use the pomade but my favorite product is the awakening mist. Because, I’m a cannabis user and I smoke throughout the day and the awakening mist is always something that refreshes me. Obviously, it helps my skin and I really enjoy

it and I give it to all my friends and they really appreciate it so those are my 2 favorites along with the shampoo and the conditioner. The conditioner has a really special smell to it that I really like. Most people, when you get a celebrity or an athlete, they attach their name to it and it may not even be a product that they use everyday. I’m such a person that has always been real and true and I speak my truth. This is something that I really believe in and something that I really use and I want to make it work.
one of my closest friends. We were both respectfully working with ESPN and FOX Sports. We would always get people on social media asking if we would do something together, but we were working for our networks. One day I said that we had to do something together. With me being with ESPN/ Disney and FOX – we need to kind of walk the line, but I know that the podcast – even though I didn’t really know what it was, I knew that people felt it would really speak to them. He and I would be good at. We tried it and AM: Are there new products that are about SHOWTIME took a chance on us not to launch that you can tell us about? really knowing what we were capable of and we struck gold!

AM: We recently started listening to your podcast All the Smoke with you and Stephen Jackson, it’s such a clever show. How did you come about creating the concept, the two of you deciding to work together and what’s your process like in terms of booking the people that come on your show?
AM: Well 2020 has been an interesting year between us quarantining with COVID-19, #BlackLivesMatter, tackling social justice issues and the 2020 election that is around the corner. In looking at your Instagram, you’re out there on the forefront. How important is it for you to use your platform, to push for changes and to get other people to MB: We were former teammates and he’s raise awareness regardless of people’s

I experienced a lot of racism growing up and it culminated in high school where my school was vandalized and the building was nearly burnt by the KKK. I faced racism growing up and I have always been really sensitive to the subject. Just to see the current state of America, we have never been more divided. Things have continued to happen and it’s almost normalized to where you think that this is normal – Black people being killed now. It’s unfortunate but it has been happening so much. I think what happened with George Floyd obviously boiled not only our country but the whole world to say that we have had enough. We’re upon a big change and as someone who has always been vocal, I am speaking on different matters and this is just something that I am very passionate about. I feel like that this is the first time in over 400 years that the world hears us and particularly the United States. So now, we have to have a plan and me using my platform, showing people what I am doing and trying to educate people. I think that we have to have a plan of intelligence. Now that they are listening, we have to know what we want and the only way to get what we want is to vote. It’s not just about voting for the president, it’s about your local level. People don’t know that most laws are made and passed on the local and the state level. Just continuing to educate people, trying to do my part and getting my friends to help and really understand the power of our community and when we come together that we can change the world. AM: Being able to see how people have come together and to know that we have to follow through to continue to make our voices heard by making our votes is essential. In addition to this taking place, with the absence of sports, I’m sure you like the rest of us were riveted to ESPN’s The Last Dance as we get ready for the NBA basketball season to resume. What do you think about the format that will take place to
MB: I think it was great you know? Normally, when the world is having a crisis, sports is something that we can always turn to. It’s been a hell of 2020 like you mentioned, and 2020 took away sports. So for the NBA to be coming back, it’s slowly but surely becoming America’s past time. I love that they were able to come to some sort of solution or understanding to get back on the court and to really help start the world to heal. We obviously have so far to go, but sports has always been that one time that people can come together. I think that now, more than ever, that’s what we really need. I’m every excited about it and it wouldn’t seem right if we didn’t have a champion this year and now we’re going to be able to get a chance to get that. AM: We couldn’t agree more. We’re sure that you have a number of projects going on, whether you’re talking about in front of the camera or behind it, are there things that we should be looking forward to in order to keep our eye out for it? MB: Obviously, you can catch All the Smoke on SHOWTIME right now although we’re in negotiations for a new deal so hopefully, that happens! Also, I’m continuing to produce and create content that I’ll start really getting out there on different networks and platforms as it’s taken over my love of sports – just being able to create content and being able to share true stories, real stories and do inspirational stories. I’m starting to that and I just signed with ICM to help me build my goal and that will be cool. I’m doing a lot in the cannabis space right now trying to educate people on that. Continue to follow that. Last but not least, educating people in a fun way on politics and teaching them on how meaningful it is. Not so much about not be-

ing passionate overall in voting for the president or whatever, but finding causes that you’re passionate about and building on those. That’s a small step to getting people first and foremost to register, getting them interested and hopefully getting them all the way interested in being able to understand how powerful their voices are to this country. AM: We always like to end our interviews asking our changemakers who you clearly are – who are you inspired by. Who are three people who have inspired you to be at the point that you are at now? MB: Nipsey Hussle RIP. Kobe RIP. These guys because of their focus and dedication on their craft and their obsessive nature – like their beautiful mind to be great. I think that both of those guys were great in their own way and they would have only become greater before their lives were cut short. Someone else that I look up to which is a big thing – I look up to someone like Michael Strahan. Someone who is able to be a formal athlete, able to speak on sports, crossover to mainstream media as well which is something that I would like to do. @Matt_Barnes9 PHOTOGRAPHY CREDITS | PG 16 - 25 Matt Barnes + Editorial Design by Athleisure Mag | PG 27 + 33 Ray Chavez | PG 28 - 31 SHOWTIME |

This month, we're heading to NYC's historic Flatiron district to abc Carpet & Home, known for its home decor assortment as well as housing 3 restaurants. During COVID-19, like many restaurants, 3-star Michelin Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten's abcv, abc Kitchen and abc Cocina have been available to the community through pickup and deliveries. Now, with NYC entering its Phase 2 of reopening, they are excited to begin having people at limited capacity within their space. Guests can enjoy all 3 restaurants as well as having access to their patio which recently opened. We chat with Jeremy Mustakas, Director of Operations of abc Restaurants about their dishes, cocktails and what to expect when dining in during Phase 2. ATHLEISURE MAG: Tell us about Jean-Georges Vongerichten in terms of his culinary journey and how he came to creating 3 restaurants abcv, abc Cocina and abc Kitchen at abc Home. JEREMY MUSTAKAS: Jean-Georges Vongerichten and Paulette Cole (owner of abc Home) partnered in 2010 to create abc kitchen, which they intended to be a neighborhood restaurant that celebrated the best locally grown produce and ethically sourced fish and meats in a setting focused on sustainability. Our proximity to Union Square's Greenmarket, where Jean-Georges has been shopping and sourcing for his restaurants for many years, gave us the opportunity to create a platform for local farmers who were doing things in the way of agriculture and sustainable farming. The restaurant would also celebrate local and global artisans, with handmade plates, vintage silverware, and artwork from around the globe. Shortly after opening, abc Kitchen won a James Beard Award for Best New Restaurant. abc Cocina, our latin-inspired small plates restaurant, opened a few years later, and finally abcV opened 3 years ago, our first and only (exclusively) plantbased restaurant.
AM: Describe a bit about 3 restaurants and what guests can expect of those menus and the ambiance? JM: abc Kitchen, our flagship, celebrates farm-table cuisine with a dining room ambiance akin to that of a modern farmhouse. abc Cocina, with it's darker and more dramatic lighting is romantic, lively, and creates a genuine sense of community with our menu concept, focused on sharing and togetherness. abcV, our plant-based restaurant which also features breakfast, is bright and inviting, filled with natural light. It showcases a menu inspired by cuisines from around the world, with a selection that is mostly vegan, with the exception of a few ethically-sourced dairy products. AM: What are 3 signature dishes and 2 signature cocktails at abcv? JM: • Whole wood roasted cauliflower, date syrup, red zhug, turmeric tahini, pistachios, fresh herbs, lemon • Smoky squash baba ghanoush, sungold tomato, fresh pita, market crudite • Mushroom walnut bolognese, carrot paccheri, celery, mint leaf • Pandan infused Gin & Housemade Tonic •
Golden Mylk Toddy
AM: What are 3 signature dishes and 2 signature cocktails at abc Cocina? JM: • Spring pea guacamole with crunchy tortillas • Griddled fish tacos, chipotle aioli, cabbage-chile pickle • Arroz con pollo, crackling skin, lemon zest
•
Grapefruit Margarita
•
Tomatillo Mojito
AM: What are 3 signature dishes and 2 signature cocktails at abc Kitchen? JM: • Spinach, goat cheese, and market herb pizza • Campanelle pasta, basil-pistachio pesto, summer squash, sungold tomatoes • Faroe island salmon, spring peas, ginger, scallion • Raspberry Fernet (featuring 123 Organic tequila) •
Vodka Thyme Lemonade
through the NY Open Restaurant plan, allowing us additional seating capcity on 19th street. We also offer a contactless menu through scanning a QR code, which will bring you to the digital version. Guest and employee safety is our number one priority, and we are deeply committed to providing a guest experience that is safe for all parties involved. AM: Although you have 3 restaurants, you are creating a menu that has elements of all 3 restaurants – tell us more about this. JM: All of the items listed above are available on our limited patio menu, and are worth trying! This combined-restaurant menu is only available for a limited time (and will end once Phase 3 begins).
AM: During COVID-19, many restaurants have had to pivot on how they served their guests and neighborhoods with pickup and delivery, how did these restaurants do this during the initial weeks of quarantine?
AM: Looking forward and based on how you have had to navigate the past few months, what are your goals for these restaurants as they continue through the summer as well as the fall?
JM: As we closed our doors for months following the government mandate, we watched a lot of our colleagues innovate and create new ways to be impactful through delivery and takeout services. When we were able to safely return in May, we were so grateful to see many of our colleagues had paved the way for a new normal. It hasn't been without its challenges, but we are fortunate to operate in a city with so many great leaders within our industry.
JM: Our goal, above everything, is to create a safe and welcoming environment for our employees and our guests. One that allows us to serve our community and provide an exceptional guest experience. We are grateful to operate in a city that understands how pivotal this moment is in continuing to make progress and learning to adapt in the new realities of dining out.
AM: We know that due to Phase 2, your restaurants are allowing guests to dine on site. Tell us about the capacity, rules and systems that you have created to ensure guest safety? JM: In addition to following all city and state safety regulations for patio dining and operating during this time, we've been able to extend our seating

SOMETHING YOU SHOULD KNOW
with John Salley
We enjoyed talking with 4 X NBA Champion, John Salley, last year and always enjoy when we have the chance to catch up with him again. This month, we talk about gifting for dads and grads, his appearance and commentary on ESPN's The Last Dance and words of advice as we navigate what is going on at this time. ATHLEISURE MAG: We always love being able to chat with you and love our annual Father’s Day chats while also getting your thoughts on what’s taking place at the moment! JOHN SALLEY: I love speaking with you and thank you for having me! Hopefully I will speak with you next Father’s Day as well. AM: It’s a date. JS: It’s a date ha! AM: It has been quite a year to say the least, but thankfully, we’re still celebrating and with Father’s Day coming up, what’s on your list this year? JS: Oh my God do I have some things for you! This is the deal. I have Old Spice, they are coming out first to market with their beard conditioning set! Now you hear a lot from Old Spice talking about how it smells on you, but this – I have been sporting a beard for the last 2.5 years and I have the beard wash, beard conditioner, beard balm and I really love the beard oil as it sits around and it nourishes my beard and gives that glisten. It doesn’t look scruffy, it looks well kept and it looks organized. I love that so I’m going to tell you to get the Old Spice Beard Kit and it’s graduation season. Boys now in high school that have beards – this is going to be a big one for them too. It's not just for the dads but graduating guys as well. I also have something else with an app that I use and get he family to use, it’s called Slickdeals. They have 12M users
on the app and on the site. They vet and vote for different deals so any given time, a new deal will pop up but you know that you’re going to get a really good deal – the best of the best of the deals. They came up with a thing called the Front Page. This way, you can shop with confidence and know that you’re getting the best price. You don’t want to have to buy something and go somewhere else and see it for a less price, it makes you feel bad. You don’t run through that with slick deals. You can also take the knowledge of the community of Slickdeals and through an extension browser on Chrome and Edge, when you shop online as soon as you put the product into the cart, the code goes with it and you don’t have to look around for savings. It pops right in and it’s going to be the best deal that you can possibly get. When you go to checkout with your merchant, all of a sudden, all of the codes are in the place and you will see all of the savings. The best thing about this especially for Father’s Day is the editors over at Slickdeals have curated an unbelievable Father’s Day section so you can go in there to get tips and ideas and the best deals possible. AM: These are definitely good things to know about especially with the quarantine going on, there are a lot of people sporting those beards! JS: Oh I know – there is a lot of hair out there and I know! Here in California a lot of barbers and hair salons are still not open. AM: We have been dying for our sport fix and we were so excited to see you on ESPN’s The Last Dance. How was that to be on the documentary and to provide all your insights into this show that captured everybody? JS: It was unbelievable. I know that when they told me about it, after I did the interview they said to forget I did the interview because we weren’t allowed to talk about it. When I saw it, I
was like, “wow that was a whole year ago.” I think that it was definitely needed during the pandemic because there is nothing on television to watch except for more and more of fear. Just seeing how much my friend Michael Jordan had to go through, I had no idea that he had to go through that much trauma. Having to deal with being a Bull going up against the Detroit Pistons! So I got to see the inside workings of the Chicago Bulls which we had no knowledge of. I think that if we had known that, we would have seen that as a weakness definitely. I think that they did a good job of that!
JS: Well I have a lot of friends talking to me – Caucasian friends asking what they can do and asking me if I see it my way and I say, this is the one time to be quiet. Don’t deal out of ego, don’t deal out of entitlement of any sort – literally listen, pay attention to each thing you say and feel. You don’t have to walk on eggshells, but check yourself to find out if you are in the right spot on this world and in the right spot in this life which is what you have to do. I say this all the time. Meditate, breathe, pray and enjoy the life that you have.
AM: With the NBA resuming the season partially as well as having the playoffs, are you excited and how do you feel about the format? Who are you cheering on?

JS: I live in Los Angelos now so I’m a LeBron – well I have always been a LeBron fan – never a Cleveland Cavalier fan. So having him wearing the purple and gold, being an established 3 X World Champion – I think it’s really important that he wins Championships here and continue the legacy. With the focus, he has had time off to – no one has had the time to grieve over the passing of Kobe, but we had time off to deal with it and time off for athletes to deal with nagging injuries of their bodies, to rest their bodies – this is the first time that this has ever happened. To be able to rest your body and not have to worry about getting traded. I think that coming back, I’m really going to be watching the Lakers to win a Championship this year! AM: Same. We’re huge fans of the Lakers. One of the things that we love about you is that you are such a positive person. Right now, there are so many things going on from the quarantine, protests for #BlackLivesMatter – what is a positive mantra that you are using to continue going forward that we can use in our day to day?

DARLING ON THE RISE with Sofia Tilbury
We have been fans of Charlotte Tilbury for a number of years as we love her approach to creating inclusive products, ensuring that these items truly work as well as including innovations within her assortment of makeup and skincare. You also know that she's just as passionate at making her celebs and red carpet beauties look fantastic as well as her fans. Her niece, Sofia Tilbury has this same passion and works with her aunt to continue her initiatives. We find out more about the brand, her makeup journey and more. ATHLEISURE MAG: What is it about the beauty industry that inspired you to work in this field? SOFIA TILBURY: Growing up in Ibiza, makeup, fashion, art and beauty were always around, so it’s hard to remember when I first became inspired by the creative world, but I always looked up to my aunt Charlotte in her career as a makeup artist. Photography and art were my favourite subjects at school, so I my first real experience with makeup was looking at fashion magazines and trying to recreate Charlotte’s cover looks on my friends so we could take photographs! When I started to get into beauty, Charlotte’s biggest blessing was to let me come and work for her. She said the most important thing for a career in beauty was assisting someone, so you can watch and learn first-hand, and she was SO right. Working with Charlotte is the best makeup training you could ever get! AM: A number of people dream of working with as well as being mentored by a visionary in their field. How is it to work so closely to an industry icon as a makeup artist as well as to learn the business from your aunt? ST: When your aunt is Charlotte Tilbury and you want to be a makeup artist, there’s a huge pressure to be incredible, and you definitely feel like you have a lot to prove, but Charlotte is all about confidence and she empowered me every step
of the way! I had to start where any other makeup artist would, and I had to work my way up, but it was the best way to learn. Charlotte is the most incredible mentor, so I feel super lucky to have been able to follow her and learn how she works her magic! AM: What has been the best beauty tip that Charlotte has shared with you? ST: One of the best makeup tricks I ever discovered through Charlotte was the power of a feline flick! It’s something she taught me from a young age. Your eyes are the most mesmerising part of your face, and when you use a gorgeous, creamy liner (like the Pillow Talk eyeliner) to elongate their shape and make them look more feline, it transforms your whole look! It works on everyone! AM: Can you tell us about the positions that you have held at Charlotte Tilbury and what you do currently at Charlotte Tilbury, what is your role like and what areas do you cover for the brand? ST: When I was 18, I worked full-time at the Charlotte Tilbury counter as an artist for two years and I learned so much. Retail is hard work. I was surrounded by all these incredibly talented and experienced makeup artists and I had to learn fast! I loved it. Then, behind the scenes, Charlotte started asking me questions about what was selling well, which products customers were asking for and what was missing from the range. That was how I started working closely with Charlotte on product development and the brand side of things. I’m currently a Brand Ambassador and Product & Content Creator at Charlotte Tilbury Beauty. No two days are ever the same! One day I could be part of a campaign, the next I’m testing colours with the product development team or dashing to do a VIP’s makeup for an event like the Golden Globes or the Oscars. I particularly love the opportunity I have to create content for Instagram. It's always
amazing and inspiring to see my followers trying a look I’ve created and feeling like a more beautiful, confident version of themselves as a result. Charlotte has always talked about the power of makeup to transform your energy, and in those moments, you do feel incredibly humbled by it.
night out! I also love to use Charlotte’s new Magic Cream Light—which is a lightweight, supercharged version of Magic Cream. It’s perfect for combination skin going through an oilier phase, or for humid summer weather! It just leaves your skin looking glowing and hydrated with a satin-matte finish.
AM: As a Celebrity Makeup Artist, what have been some of your favorite projects or people that you have worked on?
And third, Magic Away Concealer is my ultimate skin saviour. I wear it every day. It has incredible stretch and coverage so when I’m tired or my skin is not looking so great, it just blurs out all the imperfections and lifts your confidence straight away. You could event wear it on its own without foundation if you wanted to!
ST: I’m fortunate enough to work with some of the world’s most inspirational, beautiful women—from Sienna Miller to Irina Shayk; Romee Strijd to Candice Swanepoel—and at events like the Met Gala, the Golden Globes and the Oscars, so it is impossible to choose a favourite! One of the highlights of my career was my first ever time as the Lead Makeup Artist at London Fashion Week in September 2019. I created the makeup looks for Agent Provocateur, Temperley London and Olivia Rubin shows. It is incredibly fast paced and exciting backstage and working with the designers to create looks that complemented their vision and artistry—from the prints and fabrics to the cuts of the dresses—was an absolute dream come true! AM: What are your 3 must have products in the line that are your essentials? ST: This is always SUCH a hard question!! I can’t live without any of our products! I’m a lip liner girl so my first pick would have to be a Lip Cheat. I never apply lipstick without liner! My favourites are Hot Gossip—a peachy nude—and Supersize Me—the perfect rosy-pink shade that resizes and reshapes the appearance of your lips instantly! Magic Cream is always in my handbag. I have a tiny little travel sized pot that I use whenever my skin is dry—whether it is for priming my skin for a makeup tutorial or hydrating my arms and legs before a
AM: You do several tutorials for the brand with a focus on an array of looks, how important is it to have that content and education? ST: On social media, people are constantly asking me for tips and tricks on how to recreate my celebrity makeup looks from red carpet events, how to get the perfect smokey eye, how to cheat the perfect lip shape—so it’s super important to me that I’m constantly creating content to answer those questions and decodify those makeup secrets! While I’ve been in isolation, I have spent my time creating content that hopefully will uplift and empower people through the magic of makeup, whether it’s how to make your eyes look bigger and brighter with the Pillow Talk Luxury Palette or how to use your night-time skincare routine to carve out a little selfcare. Makeup and skincare are incredibly powerful, so I love to share that knowledge with everyone! AM: With a number of us doing a lot more video calls, what is the best way to get a healthy glow to our skin as well as adding a pop of color? ST: I think the key to looking good on video calls is having gorgeous, glowing skin so you look happy, healthy and radiant!
For the past few months I’ve been using Charlotte’s new Magic Serum Crystal Elixir and the way my skin looks and feels is AMAZING! It has never been so hydrated, smooth and poreless—and that really is the key if you’re going to be in front of a camera all day! It has a magic matrix of supercharged ingredients, including Polyglutamic Acid—which is four times more hydrating than Hyaluronic Acid—so it creates a beautiful, hydrating filter effect on the skin and it makes makeup application so much easier too! I layer Magic Cream over the top to intensely hydrate my skin and give it a dewy look, and then I glide Hollywood Flawless Filter over my cheekbones to really give my complexion a boost. There is nothing like glow for transforming your mood! When you look tired, you feel tired, so my next tip would be Magic Away concealer. It has incredible stretch and coverage so you can use it on its own as a base if you’re being called into a last-minute Zoom and want to look fresh and bright-eyed! I always like to use a lighter shade under my eyes to bounce the light and counteract any darkness, and then I use a shade that matches my complexion to conceal any redness or imperfections. To lock that in, I use Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder—this is the best powder EVER. I don’t know a single makeup artist or celebrity who doesn’t swear by this! It is so finely milled, it glides on like silk and blurs out pores and fine lines in an instant. It’s like a filter for your skin! For a glowing pop of colour, I like to swish and pop the Pillow Talk Cheek to Chic blush over the apples of my cheeks. I love that it has a highlighter shade in the middle for the perfect kiss of glow! AM: We’re fans of Instant Eye Palette in Pillow Talk and loved seeing it throughout the red carpets during Awards Season. In April, the brand dropped Charlotte’s New Magic Serum Crystal Elixir. Can you tell us about this new launch and feel free to
share any other products that we should know about? ST: The Magic Serum launch was incredible! We launched it with the first ever virtual press day for the brand and beauty industry, and it created a huge buzz, so it was super exciting to be a part of that. It had a huge 10k waitlist, which is just incredible! So many people are obsessed with how this serum has transformed the look of their skin—myself included! It’s a high-performance, potent yet comforting formula and it’s great for sensitive skin too. It has Golden Vitamin C in it, which is a non-irritating alternative for anyone who has ever struggled with traditional Vitamin C serums like I have. It helps even and brighten your complexion without causing breakouts or redness. The Magic Serum also contains Niacinamide, which is like a bootcamp for your pores. Another thing I love about this serum is that it actually has CRYSTALS such as Rose Quartz, Moonstone and Amethyst in it! I’m from Ibiza, so I grew up around crystals and a bohemian way of life. I wear crystals every day; I really do believe in the mood-boosting, holistic healing aura of crystals, so this feels extra special and powerful right now. I like to use 4-6 drops on cleansed skin, really taking the time to warm it between my fingertips and massage upwards and outwards over my face. We’ve also just launched the most incredible new smoothing, pore-blurring Airbrush Bronzer that literally makes you look airbrushed! I like to apply it to my cheekbones, temples and across my nose using the new Air-Brush bronzing brush— creating broad strokes wherever the sun naturally hits you. It smoothes, blurs and enhances the look of your facial architecture. It also contains Hyaluronic Acid, so it actually hydrates the skin while you wear—it never looks dry or cakey like
some bronzers! It mimics the look of a sun-kissed tan! AM: As someone who has a number of makeup tips, how can we find a nude lipstick that works for our skin tone? ST: For fair skin, I find cool blue-pink nude lipsticks like Charlotte’s award-winning Pillow Talk and Matte Revolution lipstick in Very Victoria look fantastic. Glossy textures like the Lip Lustre in Pillow Talk can also help create that plump, kissable look that is amazing for a day look. With medium skin tones, you’ve really got the option of going cool or warm. For a more cool or neutral nude, opt for a shade like Penelope Pink or Nude Kate and use a lip liner in a slightly peachy shade, such as Hot Gossip, to help it blend into your natural lip shade. My skin is a little warmer, so I love tawny-nude shades like Superstar Lips in Glow Kiss or Hot Lips 2 in Glowing Jen. They give a really beachy, sun-kissed nude that looks amazing on olive skin too! For deeper skin, the key really is the lip liner. I love to use the Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk Intense or Foxy Brown to really give the lips a perfected, rich brown colour that helps any lip shade blend beautifully without washing out the skin! The shades Stoned Rose, Angel Alessandra and Superstar Lips in Everlasting Kiss look stunning as nude lipsticks on deep skin tones. They give you an instant goddess pout! AM: What is your go to skincare products to prep your skin prior to makeup as well as after washing it off? ST: The first thing I do when prepping my skin or removing makeup is double cleansing with the Goddess Cleansing Ritual. I begin with the Citrus Oil Radiance Cleanse, which is a coconut-oil based, citrus-oil blend that melts your makeup away. I then follow this with the second ritual, which is a purifying charcoal cleanse. It draws out impurities and tackles deeper-rooted environmental dirt, helping to unblock pores and eliminate excess online, which I
love. Next, I’ll use my Instant Magic Facial Dry Sheet Mask or my Goddess Skin Clay Mask. When we were working on the dry sheet mask, Charlotte was super inspired by Korean beauty, so we worked with some amazing labs to create this formula of genius ingredients–including vitamin B3, crocus bulb extract, peptides, oils and butters–to penetrate deep into the skin using a biomimetic vector delivery system. If my skin is a little oily or congested, I’ll use the clay mask—which is rich with almond oil and Spanish Clay. It doesn’t crack or dry like other clay masks do! Every time I use this on myself or one of my clients, I’m blown away by the way it makes the skin look baby smooth! Another one of my favourite tricks I learned from Charlotte is facial massage—her celebrity clients call this the “Tilbury Tap!” When prepping a client’s complexion before makeup, I pinch along the jawline and cheekbones, tap my fingers around the eye area and massage Charlotte’s Magic Serum and Magic Cream up and out with sweeping, open palms to help stimulate lymphatic drainage and micro-circulation. @ctilburymakeup @sofiaschwarzkopftilbury PHOTOGRAPHY COURTESY | Sofia Tilbury
ATHLEISURE LIST: Flatiron, UES, UWS + Streaming
FHITTING ROOM LIVE virtually with their trainers and are able to interact with them as well as other attendees. Only 24 people can access each session which runs for 35 mins.
As businesses continue to navigate quarantine as well as capacity based on what phase your city is in, many have focused on streaming to provide fitness services. Fhitting Room Live is an extension of their studios that are located in Flatiron, UES and UWS. A number of professional athletes from the NBA, NFL and Olympics train there. Trainers' backgrounds include professional athletes as well as dancers.
This workout is known to be tough. Pre-COVID-19, attendees could focus on their individual goals while also having a sense of camraderie by the class as a whole as you can see everyone pushing through together. Even in this streamed version, this same feeling is available due to small class sizes and the use of Zoom.
Each class has a format known as FHIX (functional high intensity mix). You'll find that you will do something different every time. This circuit based class is similar to what you would do in the gym; however, the difference is the music as well as the intstructors that bring their hype into the routines.
When prepping for this workout via Fhitting Room Live, there is no equipment needed for body-weight-only classes. For those that do have equipment as an option, it is suggested that you have a kettlebell or set of dumbbells nearby. Make sure to checkout their Instagram to stay in the loop on

MAPLE LEAF FARMS Maple Leaf Farms, Inc. has been a leading provider of premium Duck products throughout the world since 1958. Family-owned and family farmed raised, their ducks are all natural and humanely raised in a free to roam environment. They are fully integrated throughout every step of the process, making the quality of the utmost standards. Their commitment to animal care and top quality products has set them apart as one of the most recognized and well respected duck brands.
fat duck brat (60% less fat and 40% less calories than pork brats) and a low fat duck bacon (57% less fat than pork bacon). Duck is a great alternative protein because it's lean & delicious. Duck is also rich in monounsaturated fat, so the fat that you are eating is very similar to the nutritional content of olive oil. Maple Leaf Farms raises white pekin ducks whose flavor is a milder, slightly sweet taste and the meat is really tender. Essentially you get the taste and feel of a steak with a duck breast, but you get the nutrition of the poultry side. Some describe it as a perfect tossup between steak and chicken. Duck is high in iron, so that results in a red meat taste. Duck is also great on the grill and can be cooked in pretty much

online sales, so they started developing kits. They currently have a Duck Grill Kit which includes: 32 duck brats, 4 lbs. of ground duck, 8 skinless duck breasts, a recipe guide, and an exclusive independence day themed “FireQuacker� apron. They wanted to focus on duck items best for the summer since most people think of duck as a fall or winter dish. 3rd and 4th generation owners Olivia and her father, John T., have been running a recipe video series on their Facebook to talk about the kit as well as showing how easy it is to make these items for a great summer family meal. Another kit may be available around Labor Day.
When cooking with duck, there are a lot of flavor pairings with rotisserie rubs, garlic rubs, and it really pairs well with most spices. Traditionally duck is frequently paired with orange sauce, hoisin sauce or sometimes a berry sauce like cherry or raspberry. It's also recommend to drink a Pinot Noir with duck since it has a mild tender flavor. A medium bodied red is the best to pair since it borders the line in taste between chicken and steak. Maple Leaf Farms has been working with a variety of restaurants throughout the nation to help serve meals to frontline healthcare workers and furloughed restaurant employees.
