Potempa didn't have to look far when pregnancy hormones and biotin intake triggered regrowth that made her locks a bit unruly. "My hair changed and I needed to use The Beachwaver Co. Coast Pro Ceramic Styling Iron ($169) and pomade to reduce flyaways created from the new growth," she said. "And I used the Wrap Up ($12) to keep my hair off my face until my son was about 7 months!"
Hair care remains important — it is her job, after all — but mom life has called for some flexibility. Potempa now washes her hair at night and lets it air-dry, curling it the next morning and using dry shampoo to set the style.
With two children underfoot, the queen of curl has also learned to make her makeup routine more efficient. "I now know how to get ready so much faster by using products that last," she said. Two favorites: Stila's Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Bella ($22) and Tarte's Tarteist Pro Glow Highlight & Contour Palette ($45) — a must for multitaskers.
