First of all, the Wildflower co-owner isn't using moisturizer right now.
Even though she's mostly minimalist with her makeup approach these days, none of the looks felt outside of Carlson's comfort zone. She loves experimenting with and learning about makeup. In fact, Carlson brought her phone to her bathroom to show me her cosmetics-packed vanity, including the fancy newshe got for Christmas and bright makeup she dabbles when time permits. After trying it out for the shoot, she even bought a brown lipstick.
"I've been getting them since I was like 18, probably like one a year," Carlson says. "But this past year, I was like, I don't think I'm going to get any more tattoos because I started regretting the first tattoo I ever got." She points out the word serendipity etched in her mom's handwriting that she spontaneously got while on vacation in Boston.
Our conversation also segues into her relationship with the skin on, well, her face. It's been "quite the fucking journey," Carlson remarks, showing the first and only ounce of negativity throughout our entire 45 minutes virtually together. With all this in mind, Carlson wouldn't necessarily recommend the medication to anyone else, but she wouldn't take back the experience. "I was like a nightmare for the six months I was on it," she says. "Being an emotional 15-year-old and then being on Accutane was a lot. But the first day I took the pill, my skin instantly, like magic, was better."
