I'm the founder of an Organic Beauty brand—here are the products I rely on for achieving youthful, radiant skin.

      (Image credit: Original graphic by Makena Frederick) The Lineup is a monthly series that offers a glimpse into the beauty routines of stylish individuals, editors, makeup artists, hairstylists, and estheticians—the people we rely on most. Prepare for an inside look at the essential products that keep their lives moving smoothly. Raised on a century-old plum farm in Northern California, Allison Taylor and her sisters Jacqueline and Elaine discovered their passion for organic farming and sustainability at an early age. This passion eventually evolved into a project that quickly gained a devoted following. Cherished by editors and estheticians, it all began with the brand's Plum Beauty Oil ($72). I’ve composed a personal love letter to the oil as it hydrates, soothes, and is ideal for my acne-prone skin. The brand originated from upcycling byproducts from their family farm. "The plum seeds were essentially being thrown away (which we all considered absurd), so we conducted two and a half years of research on the cold-pressed oil and launched Le Prunier with one product (the oil) in 2018." (Image credit: Allison Taylor) A few equally remarkable product launches later, Taylor emphasizes the importance of keeping her routine straightforward and regularly employing the healing properties of plum oil. She is also a big advocate for facials and massages, claiming, "Specifically, buccal and deep tissue massage," she says. "Monthly Hydrafacials have greatly benefited my skin. I’ve also tried Botox around my elevens, as I spend a lot of time in front of a computer and squint frequently, despite wearing glasses. I love visiting Bell Yoo at Mimo Aesthetics in L.A. She’s incredible and very conservative; I’m quite cautious about going beyond that." In addition to her products, Taylor monitors her diet and limits caffeine and alcohol to keep her skin in optimal condition. "I believe clear skin begins from within, and no amount of products will be effective if your diet isn’t healthy. I also suggest consulting a functional medicine doctor (I see Dr. Lekkos in L.A.), who has helped me balance my hormones, manage adrenal fatigue, and feel substantially better. If you’re facing issues with acne scars, discoloration, or general uneven skin tone, I appreciate a good laser treatment. I generally keep my skincare quite minimal, as that's what works best for me." For more insights into Taylor's go-to cult-favorite vitamin C serum, her makeup must-haves honed over a decade, and her favorite fragrance, continue reading. I'm sharing everything below.

      Le Prunier

      Plum Beauty Oil

      "My lifelong holy grail. There’s nothing this oil can't resolve. Recently, I faced an unusual case of dermatitis due to an allergic reaction, and our oil cleared it up remarkably fast. It’s light, luxurious, and genuinely stands alone."

      "Our latest launch has finally arrived after nearly three years of development! It’s the first exfoliating mask endorsed by the National Eczema Association, which we are so proud to introduce. It appears as a creamy, lush plum-colored therapeutic mud mask, but beneath the surface, it offers even more. We uncovered natural plum enzymes and plum hydroxy acids (AHA, BHA, PHA) in our patented Midnight Muir ingredient, which aid in gently exfoliating and deeply clarifying the skin without stripping or disrupting the microbiome."

      SkinCeuticals

      C E Ferulic

      "My daytime routine is very straightforward: Cleanse, apply a few drops of C E Ferulic, followed by Plumscreen for moisture and protection. I finish with a light layer of foundation."

      SkinCeuticals

      Blemish + Age Defense

      "If I experience unexpected breakouts, I apply a few drops of this, and it works like magic. It helps maintain my skin when I’m stressed from excessive travel and work."

      Crown Affair

      The Leave-In Conditioner Cream

      "I can't express enough how wonderful this line is. Dianna truly excelled! I spend much time in Colorado where the climate can seriously harm my hair. This leave-in conditioner has been transformative, and I never travel without it. Besides the results, I’m in love with the scent."

      OUAI

      Fine Shampoo and Conditioner Set

      "A friend recommended this shampoo and conditioner to me, and I’ve noticed a significant difference in overall body and volume. I have a lot of hair, but it’s long and fine, which means it tangles easily. The conditioner is a lifesaver because I never struggle to brush my hair after showering. It leaves my hair moisturized without being heavy."

      RŌZ

      Santa Lucia Heat Protectant Styling Hair Oil

      "Roz is such a beautiful line that I’ve recently come to adore. I rarely use hot tools on my hair but will occasionally add a light curl for an event, and this styling oil gives my hair a stunning finish. I highly
