#  Model Charli Howard Shares A Day In Her Life  


You might know model Charli Howard from her Redken and Maybelline campaigns – or perhaps her work with make-up queen Pat McGrath. These days, however, she’s better known for championing body positivity and women’s issues – plus, she’s currently busy writing her third book. Here, she talks us through a typical day in her life…

#### *8am*

**I’m not a morning person.** I’ve got blackout blinds in my bedroom, so I have to rely on my phone alarm to wake me up. The first thing I do is check emails on my phone and then head downstairs to make two cups of tea. I don't know why, I just can't start my day unless I've had two cups of Yorkshire. I like to keep things quiet and sit in my own thoughts for a bit, so there’s no TV or radio on. I can wake up a bit puffy faced in the morning, so I like to use FRAÎCHEUR [ice globes](https://www.chrisandsons.co.uk/fraicheur-ice-globe-blue.html) – which I put in the freezer overnight – to help my face go down.

#### *9am*

**I take my second cup of tea to the shower with me.** I put it on the side so that by the time I get out of the shower, it’s the perfect temperature to drink. In the shower, I love to use Naturium [The Perfector Salicylic Acid Body Wash](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=59805&awinaffid=69421&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.spacenk.com%2Fuk%2Fbath-body%2Fbody-cleanser%2Fbody-wash%2Fthe-perfector-salicylic-acid-body-wash-MUK200039377.html). I rub that on my chest, arms and legs, just to make everything really smooth. I also use the Augustinus Bader [cleanser](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=59805&awinaffid=69421&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.spacenk.com%2Fuk%2Fskincare%2Fcleansers%2Fcleanser%2Fthe-foaming-cleanser-MUK200038062.html) on my face. I brush my teeth with the Colgate [Max White toothpaste](https://amzn.to/4dWUnfa). I have Invisalign, so I'm trying to make my teeth as white as possible.

#### *10am*

**Warmth and comfort is front of mind when I’m getting dressed.** I have a great pair of Paige [jeans](https://selfridges.prf.hn/click/camref:1100loTp9/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.selfridges.com%2FGB%2Fen%2Fproduct%2Fpaigeanessa-raw-hem-wide-leg-high-rise-stretch-denim-jeans_R04322944%2F) that give me a really nice shape, and a cashmere jumper from [Reformation](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=40090&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thereformation.com%2F) that I’m wearing on rotation. My outfit is all about the coat though. Some of my favourites are from [Saks Potts](https://sakspotts.com/) and [Charlotte Simone](https://charlottesimone.com/). I'm not really into fast fashion, so a lot of my stuff is old or vintage. I buy a lot from [Vestiaire Collective](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=49104&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.vestiairecollective.com%2F) and I've been getting more into [eBay](https://www.ebay.co.uk/) as well. I’m very much about second-hand and buying things that make me feel good. Lots of my jewellery is also vintage. My dream jewellery buy would be from [Jessica McCormack](https://www.jessicamccormack.com/); I am saving up at the moment. I don't worry about what other people are wearing or following trends. What I love most about vintage is shopping the different eras because they all have their own unique style. I am a 90s girl by day and 60s Hollywood glam at night. My style icon is Angelina Jolie – she keeps it simple, but her looks are always so effective.

#### *11am*

**I love southeast London.** It’s a five-minute commute into London Bridge and easy to go central from there. I can’t leave the house without wearing SPF50 every day. I burn really easily, so it’s a must. Clinique’s [Superdefense City Block](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=37401&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.clinique.co.uk%2Fproduct%2F1667%2F102387%2Fskin-care%2Fsuperdefensetm-city-block-spf-50-daily-energy-face-protector) is amazing – you can just wear that and nothing else. I also can’t leave the house without my [AirPods](https://www.apple.com/uk/airpods/) and Dior [lip oil](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2041&awinaffid=69421&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boots.com%2Fdior-addict-lip-glow-oil-nourishing-glossy-lip-oil-10276083). On my commute, I listen to the [*Sweet Bobby*](https://open.spotify.com/show/0pxg9zewLAYxhcmbJ4CL0Q) podcast, which has now been made into a [Netflix documentary](https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81591286). My music taste is very eclectic, so I might be listening to anything from Stormzy to opera. On the way in, I’ll pick up a [Joe &amp; The Juice](https://www.joejuice.com/) power shake.

#### *12pm*

**I keep meetings to earlier in the day.** That's when my brain's working a bit more. For lunch meetings, I love [Chiltern Firehouse](https://www.chilternfirehouse.com/), [The Twenty Two](https://www.thetwentytwo.com/) or [Bubala](https://www.bubala.co.uk/) in Soho. I get all my exercise from walking; on a day when I’m in central London, I can easily hit 10,000 steps. I often work from [Riding House Café](https://www.riding.house/) near Oxford Street, where I usually have a sandwich and some more tea. I am writing a script and a book, both with feminist themes. They delve into how other people can impact your body image and how sexual assault can affect it too. I work much better when there's noise around me and when I can people watch a bit.

#### *3pm*

**I have a facial every fortnight.** I’ve had really bad skin in the past, so it’s something I am actively working on. I have a rotation of specialists I see depending on what my skin concerns are at that point. [The Skin Sculpter](https://www.guendalinatheskinsculpter.com/) by Guendalina Gennari in Notting Hill is great for lymphatic drainage. Jasmina Vico at [Vico Skin](https://vicoskin.com/) is unbelievable at getting rid of breakouts. My skin always looks amazing and she worked on all the Barbies for the *Barbie* movie. I’ve recently started going to [Melanie Grant](https://melaniegrant.com/) to get rid of my redness from acne. Because I am so pale, every mark shows up on my face. Lastly, [Emily Lansley](https://www.emilyroselansley.com/) is great for leaving my skin glowing. I try to stay away from sugar as much as I can because it really does affect my skin, so I tend to have healthier snacks like rice crackers with dark chocolate on top. And I can’t get enough of pistachios.

#### *6.30pm* 

**I change my clothes as soon I walk in the door.** London can be really polluted, so I’m straight into my comfy clothes and then I take my make-up off. I have dinner as soon as I get home – usually around 6.30pm – as I like my tummy to have enough time to settle before bed. On average, I am out three times a week for work events. Depending on the event, an LBD and heels from [Jimmy Choo](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=37501&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jimmychoo.com%2Fen%2Fwomen%2Fshoes%2Fsaeda-100%2Fblack-suede-pumps-with-crystal-embellishment--SAEDA100EWA000757.html) or [Manolo Blahnik](https://www.manoloblahnik.com/gb/) is my vibe. Make-up wise, I'm loving my Hourglass [foundation](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=59805&awinaffid=69421&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.spacenk.com%2Fuk%2Fmakeup%2Fcomplexion%2Ffoundation%2Fambient-soft-glow-foundation-MUK200034864.html). Victoria Beckham's beauty products are so underrated too – the [concealer pen](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=50465&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fvictoriabeckhambeauty.com%2Fen-gb%2Fproducts%2Fthe-concealer-pen%3Fvariant%3D42685438066722) works so well on my skin tone. The Tom Ford [bronzer](https://www.tomfordbeauty.co.uk/product/soleil-glow-bronzer?shade=Terra) and Charlotte Tilbury [Exagger-Eyes eyeshadow](https://prf.hn/click/camref:1011l4QSA/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.charlottetilbury.com%2Fuk%2Fproduct%2Fbigger-brighter-eyeshadow-exaggereyes) are also some of my favourite products.

#### *8pm*

**I hate being cold.** If I do spend an evening at home, I light my scented candles and snuggle up under my electric blanket on the sofa with another cup of tea. I’ve just finished watching [*Joan*](https://www.itv.com/watch/joan/10a3918), which was brilliant. I’ve just started [*Sweetpea*](https://www.sky.com/watch/sweetpea) on Sky Atlantic – any sort of true crime always gets my vote.

#### *11pm*

**Before bed, I reflect on what I'm grateful for.** I make a mental list of ten things before I fall asleep. My bedsheets are from [Dunelm](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=3769&awinaffid=69421&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dunelm.com%2F) and are honestly the softest sheets in the world. On my bedside table I have a few books: [*Think Again*](https://amzn.to/485LJtr) by Jacqueline Wilson, [*Women Who Love Too Much*](https://amzn.to/3BLxWMl) and [*Conversations in Love*](https://amzn.to/4dNGrUG) by Natasha Lunn.
