Her day usually begins at 9 a.m. with a graphic design project, moving between mood boards, typefaces, colors, and compositions in search of the right visuals. As her workspace turns into a self-portrait studio by noon, she brings her visions through her self-portraits for a jewelry brand. After that, she stays inspired and curious by attending events and seeing fellow creatives at a book launch.
Like most days, it can get long and overwhelming but Selina still keeps her glow with t with , the POND’S Bright Miracle Serum Day Cream that offers a low-key way to look more put together, leaving a soft, powdery finish on most skin types, while working as a serum, moisturizer, and primer in one.
