Reigning Miss Galaxy Australia, 2022 SunSmart ambassador for Cancer Council, and ACT young citizen of the year nominee, Emily Egan shares five things essential to her look, and a peek at what goes on underneath the skin.
What do you do on days that you donโt feel confident?
โI always try to come up with some things I am grateful for and focus on my inner beauty and what my body is capable of โ like running or playing sport โ rather than what it looks like. I also do an extra face mask and give myself some additional TLC through a relaxing bath and some skincare.โ
What is an insecurity that youโve had to overcome?
โMy bright red hair. Growing up I was often criticised for being different, with my red hair being a sticking point for kids to ridicule. I overcame my insecurities through recognising that everyone is unique and different. No one is perfect, and my red hair is what makes me unique! And now I wouldnโt change it for the world.โ
What is something that you find beautiful in others?
โGratitude, kindness, and humility! I really appreciate others who go out of their way to brighten other peopleโs day and try to make a small impact in the world.โ
Something localโฆ
Anything from Peach Bud Boutique! Peach Bud has the most gorgeous collection of summer dresses and office styles. They will have you covered for your wardrobe all year round! I am still loving floral midis at the moment, seeing off the last of spring in style.
Something freeโฆ
Walking! Whether it be a quick morning lap of Lake Burley Griffin with the girls or an evening stroll on Ngunnawal Hill, I always feel my best when I am moving my body and getting fresh air.
Something I always keep on meโฆ
Sunscreen! I use the Cancer Councilโs matte sunscreen under my makeup but always keep a travel sunscreen in my purse, especially for sunny days. When keeping UV protected and keeping the wrinkles away, sun care is a must.
Something I splurged on/like to invest inโฆ
Good quality shoes. You spend so much of your day on your feet so itโs so important you have comfortable footwear. I always invest in good quality work shoes (heels) and joggers for running. Current favourite brands are Jo Mercer and Wittner!
Something for days when I donโt feel the bestโฆ
Skin care and face masks. I am a skin care addict who loves the La Rosche Posay and Cera Ve skin care lines and I find the best way to wind down after a long day is with the Garnier Hydro Boost face masks.
