We all grow up watching our moms moisturize, tweeze, paint and apply the products we yearn one day to be old enough to use ourselves. And when we are, we remember what she told us about beauty.
Our mom always taught us not to get too caught up with beauty magazines. She told us to embrace our individual features instead of trying to look like someone else. – Marylyn Simpson (T&S beauty columnist)

Our mom taught us to wear sunscreen every day! – Hailee and Mia Elmore
My mother had the most beautiful complexion! Her secret weapon: Pond’s Cold Cream. I use it every day. – Joan Berkman (T&S Velvet Hammer columnist )
My mom has had me wearing sunscreen every single day since I was a little girl … and if it means my skin will look anything like hers does when I get older, I’ll gladly keep applying! – Aimee Knebel (Associate Regional Marketing Director at Yelp)
Her best beauty advice? ‘Smile.’ She always taught us that happiness is the key to inner beauty—that and having fun, and we Burgess girls sure know how to have fun! – Suzy Bacino (T&S style editor)
