Aerin Lauder’s Favorite Things

“There is nothing more timeless than a beautiful watch. Gold is a neutral, and the shape of this one makes it elevated and effortlessly feminine. A Cartier watch was one of the first gifts I received from my husband, and I still wear it today.”

“I follow a simple, consistent skincare routine. My grandmother Estée used to say, ‘you only have one face, take care of it,’ and I still believe that. From the Re-Nutriv collection, I love the Soft Crème Moisturizer, Reversal Treatment Lotion Toner, and Eye Serum.”

“This has been a daily essential for as long as I can remember. I use it morning and night to hydrate my skin and create a natural glow. On planes, it’s my go-to for feeling refreshed as soon as I arrive.”

“My grandmother launched the first Private Collection fragrance in 1973, a scent she had originally created just for herself. Later, while I was Creative Director at Estée Lauder, I worked on Tuberose Gardenia as a tribute to her. Bringing it into the AERIN Collection many years later was an honor, and today it’s one of my most-worn fragrances, whatever the season or destination.”

“Our luxury games are a centerpiece for entertaining at home. The Shagreen Backgammon set blends tradition with modern style—it’s decorative, functional, and fun for every generation.”

“Few jewelry designs are more iconic than an Elsa Peretti Gold Cuff from Tiffany’s. My grandmother taught me that less is more: one statement piece is all you need—simple, understated, and elegant.”
