Watch her video above for a look at her HighBorn routine.

And here's Leanna's normal routine in her own words:

"I've just got out of the shower and dried my hair.

And I'm now going to put on my favourite HighBorn products before I put my makeup on. As a makeup artist, it's so important that your skin is in a really good place. Otherwise, your makeup's just not that great.

So my normal routine, I've got my Imperial Eye Gel, love, love, love. I just love this.

Love the texture. And I like just gently massaging it around my eyes over my wrinkly eyelids and underneath. The texture ... it just feels so nice. And I definitely ... have definitely noticed a difference since I've been using this probably for about a year.

And I get a lot of compliments about my youthful looks, which is very kind. Maybe they're not all true, but very kind.

So I'm just going to get my fringe out of the way so that I can put my serum on.

So I put my eye gel on first and then I use the Pre-Eminent Beauty Serum. Love that it's now in a glass bottle that makes me super happy (NOTE: We have two variations of new eco-friendly packaging, the bottle as seen here with Joanna and also a jar. So customers may receive one or the other at the time of writing. Depending on feedback we will stick with the favourite!).

And I just put a little bit on my hand and I like to dot it around my face and I tend to rub it in and my neck, which is often forgotten. I think don't forget your neck.  

And I love the way it just sinks into the skin so quickly.

So after that has settled for a moment, the Imperial Moisturiser ... rich enough to just help with any areas of dryness I find, but not so heavy that you can't put makeup on over the top.

Now. I just use my fingertips to work in not forgetting my neck.

What I like to do before I put on my makeup is put on some of the Lip Butter. And that would just prep your lips in time. By the time you get around to putting anything on your lip, makeup-wise, it would have had a chance to do its magic. Skin prep done ... 

<PAUSE>

So I've done my makeup.

Now, it all went on amazingly. It's all cream-based products that I've put on today. So it buffed into the skin really well because of the prep. It's so important to do your proper prep and the products from HighBorn just worked for me... so amazingly well.

So I finished off with one of the Lip Glosses ... in Pink Topaz and I just dapped that onto my lips with my finger just to give a little bit of colour, but nothing too much at the end.

I'm really, really chuffed. And I would really recommend that you try the products because I think they're ACE."

So pleased you're pleased Leanna!
