I have sensitive skin and I never change products. Every time I try something new, I break out. This is the only skincare product I will buy from Sephora and I’m passing it up quickly. It’s super moisturizing and doesn’t make me irritated, unlike other over-the-counter skin care products. I have been using it for three years after my cousin directed me to the brand. I went through about 20 tubs.

This is a face mask that I use as a hand cream. I hate with a passion when my hands dry out when I go to bed. This feeling bothers me very much. I keep this mask next to my bed. I travel with it and use it on planes. I love how thick it is. I originally included this as a birthday gift for my boyfriend, who doesn’t have a skincare set as a man, and I ended up stealing it.

Next to dry hands, the second thing I hate most is harsh overhead lighting. In the house in the Hamptons where I cook, a few other people work and the ceiling lights are always on, and I’m thinking: Wait, I just want to cook in natural light. I’m very particular about the lights in my own apartment and I like to have lots of lamps with these bulbs. I even have a small lamp in my bathroom. I use this instead of glaringly bright bathroom lights that trigger headaches. I find that soft lighting lowers my blood pressure and calms me down.

These are very soft and refreshing and stay cool. I love getting into a cold bed. I think it’s a universal love. I visited a friend in Los Angeles and we stayed at her mother’s house and her mother had these sheets on her bed. I was moving into a new apartment and getting a new king size bed, so when I got back I texted her mom and told her I needed these sheets. I have two sets in plain white.

It’s the only apron I use in the Hamptons, and I literally do everything in it: I go out and grill, come back in and work on high heat, wipe my hands on it, smear it with oil and blueberries. It washes so well. Working eight to ten hours a day, the cross-back design is great for shoulder comfort compared to something that goes around the neck. The pockets are nice and deep, I put a lot of random items in there; my wallet, sunglasses, tool bag when I go grocery shopping. I’ve loved White Bark aprons for years, then I met founder Charlie Pennes, who made a Fork brand apron for me.

I’m a big fan Big Nightand I have many products from them. My most basic idea is this. I always have a small bowl of salt on my desk. This is such a gorgeous little statement bowl. I grew up in a household that loved salt, and my mother always had a salt shaker on her table, but having a bowl feels a little more sublime. I bought this about eight months ago. They’re also great for making cheese or keeping fig jam or a dollop of honeycomb on a charcuterie board.
