As a trauma anesthesiologist and mom of twin girls, Dr. Tiffany Moon is always on-the-go. Read our full interview about how she’s learned the importance of being present in her twins’ lives and enjoying the ride. She gave us a peek at some of her self-care favorites, including her must-try beauty product and which books are on her nightstand.
Go-To for Self Care
“I love a good mani-pedi, but it’s not super safe to go to a salon. I found Cherry, a service where they send someone to the house. She keeps her mask on and has gloves, and I sit there with a glass of wine and just relax.”
Read or Watch TV?
“Oh my gosh, I love books. I would much, much, much rather read a book than watch TV any day. My favorites over the last couple of years are Educated by Tara Westover, Grit by Angela Duckworth and The Moment of Lift: How Empowering Women Changes the World by Melinda Gates.”
Beauty Must-Haves
“I like tools more than products. I don’t believe in, ‘Oh, if you buy this $300 face cream, you’ll have wonderful skin.’ I know the science too well. I love the BeautyBio skin rolling things. It’s like microneedling at home. They made this one called the Cryo Roller. It’s metal, and you stick it in the refrigerator. It gets cold and makes your skin tight. And it wakes you up.”
How She Stays Active
“Besides chasing after my kids? I have a Peloton, which is lovely. And I hang clothes on it sometimes.”
A Tune That Gets Her Dancing
“Love You Like a Love Song” by Selena Gomez & The Scene
Her Approach to Parenting
“I would say I am a loving tiger mom. I expect a lot from my children and have a lot of tough love. But I play with them, explain things to them and cuddle with them, and they know that they’re loved.”
