"I was never really into makeup," Gemma admitted. "For my entire adult life, I've been a flick-and–red lip kinda girl, but three years ago, I launched This Is Mothership with ex–beauty director Sam Silver, and she educated me on makeup to a level I didn't even know existed! So now I'm still a flick-and–red lip kinda girl, but with some added essentials. I thought I was a minimalist, but listing each item makes me think otherwise!

"All these products live in my makeup bag, and although I test out lots of products as part of my job, I very rarely stray from these. Most days, I just use mascara, put on some brows and add a lip, but I keep this all in here in case I ever need a full face—which is usually based on how much sleep I had the night before (never really that much) and how important a workday I have."
