The Lineup is a monthly series where we’re giving you an inside peek at the beauty lineups of cool fashion people, editors, makeup artists, hairstylists, and estheticians—all the people we trust the most. Get ready for a behind-the-scenes look at all the can’t-live-without products that make their worlds go ’round.
New York City is home to some of the most renowned skincare experts, including prestigious dermatologists, skilled aestheticians, and world-class injectors. One of the most sought-after is Lara Devgan, MD, MPH, FACS. She’s a board-certified plastic surgeon and the founder of her eponymous skincare line (among many other titles), but before becoming a celeb-loved doctor and opening a clinic on the Upper East Side, Devgan was unsure of her life path. She found herself enthralled by the beauty world, captivated by art, and interested in medicine—but above all, she had a desire to help people. She realized that all of these passions coalesced in the field of plastic surgery.
Devgan’s philosophy is "Beauty is in the details,” which represents the millimeter-level precision that a career in plastic surgery requires. She says it also serves as a reminder that beauty is a diverse, nuanced, and deeply personal concept. "By paying attention to the details, I can help individuals achieve their unique vision of beauty,” she says.
Even if you’re not looking to get any cosmetic procedures, you should know Devgan’s best preventative beauty tip: sun protection. "It’s undoubtedly the most important thing you can do for your skin, and it’s free. It’s not just about preventing sunburn, though—the sun’s UV rays can cause wrinkles, fine lines, and those pesky age spots that we all want to avoid,” she says. "Sun protection is absolutely crucial for maintaining healthy and youthful-looking skin.”
According to Devgan, another game changer for a glowing complexion is a solid skincare routine. Given her credentials, it should be pretty obvious that her skincare line, Dr. Devgan Scientific Beauty, is a level above the rest. She’s created highly efficacious formulas that are actually influenced by Wholesale Replica Bag medical advancements. And trust me—they deliver those "oh my god” results. (Just look at the before-and-afters of her Platinum Lip Plump.) Keep reading to see all of her top products and what she has to say about them.
"This is the award-winning lip plumper that sold out 12 consecutive times. I designed this product to mimic the hydrating look of a syringe of filler. Powered by mixed molecular weight hyaluronic acid, niacin, and ceramides, this clear gloss gives the lips a visible increase in volume, softness, and pinkness. Take a before and after photo to see amazing results. (Wait five minutes for the full effect!)”
"As someone who’s very picky about scents, discovering Santal 33 was a revelation. This unisex fragrance is neither too floral nor too musky, making it a perfect balance of sophistication and approachability. This lotion has become my olfactory signature.”
"As a lover of minimalist beauty, I always appreciate versatility. This product serves not only as a bronzer but also as eye shadow and even a subtle blush. It simplifies my beauty routine while ensuring I look fresh and radiant throughout my day. It’s a testament to the power of a well-crafted product that can multitask seamlessly. This bronzer has become my secret weapon for bringing a touch of sunshine to even the cloudiest of days.”
"Sometimes, the most valuable skincare products are the ones that simplify your routine. (Remember, products are only as good as your willingness to use them.) That is why I created this collection of my most powerful serums. They will help you achieve all of your skincare goals: tighter pores, reduced fine lines, a clear and even complexion, and bright, hydrated skin.”
"There’s something about the classic allure of red lipstick that has always intrigued me. I love Dior 999. The texture is so smooth, but what truly amazes me is its longevity. Through dinner conversations, sips of champagne, and even dessert, this lipstick stays as vibrant as when I first applied it. It’s not just a lipstick—it’s a statement.”
"This is a new scent I’m trying out. I love fashion, so I appreciate the artistry that goes into every Burberry creation—it’s like a wearable work of art. This scent is an enchanting blend of fruity and floral notes that immediately captivates me each time I smell it.”
"I believe that makeup should enhance your natural beauty, not mask it, and this powder aligns perfectly with this philosophy. It allows my skin to breathe, setting my makeup in a way that gives me a healthy, luminous glow. It’s like a filter for real life, enhancing my features while keeping my makeup looking natural and effortless. It’s a product that proves you can achieve a polished look without sacrificing the authenticity of your own skin.”
"I was doing my daughters’ nails with this polish and was appreciating how easy it was to work with and how quickly it dried. I usually never do my nails but decided to give it a try. I found myself truly impressed with the longevity of this polish—my nails remained impeccable through the entire week despite working with my hands every day. This polish has become my trusted choice.”
"This oil is like liquid gold for my skin. But my favorite aspect is the brand’s commitment to sustainability. Knowing that the ingredients are sustainably sourced from the Amazon rainforest adds an extra layer of meaning to my beauty routine. This body oil is more than just skincare; it’s a symbol of responsible beauty and a reminder of the importance of preserving our planet’s natural treasures.”
"One of my best-selling, celebrity-favorite products. Having long, luscious, natural lashes has always been a beauty goal of mine, and this serum has grown my lashes exponentially. My lashes almost touch my eyebrows now! I recommend applying every morning and night for the best results.”
"I’ve experimented with many hair products over the years, but this styling oil stands out as a true game changer. What impresses me most is that my hair doesn’t ever feel weighed down or greasy when I use this product. It’s more like having a natural, invisible hold that allows my hair to move freely. This is a product that has redefined the way I approach hairstyling and makes it a breeze to get salon-quality results at home.”
"Formulated with an intensely black carbon-based pigment, this mascara is all you need for luscious, multidimensional, dramatic eyelashes. I designed this mascara to dovetail with my lash serum. When used together, it’s the first-ever scientifically backed eye-enhancing lash serum and mascara.”
"I love how this brush gently detangles my hair without causing any pain or breakage. The bristle and nylon are a dynamic duo, and the ergonomic design of the brush makes it comfortable to hold. This brush has become an indispensable part of my haircare routine.”
"Another necessary product in my arsenal for creating my no-makeup makeup look. The liquid formula blends seamlessly into my skin, and its buildable nature allows me to achieve the perfect rosy tint. This is my secret to looking effortlessly polished, leaving people guessing whether it’s my makeup or just a healthy glow.”
"Beauty products that are versatile hold a special place in my heart, and as someone who prefers a natural makeup look, I’m always on the lookout for products that enhance my features without looking heavy. This palette fits the bill perfectly. These customizable concealers blend seamlessly into my skin like a magic eraser for imperfections. This compact is a permanent resident in my makeup bag.”
"I appreciate the tasteful beauty of classic makeup. This blush is my go-to for creating a vintage-inspired, timeless look. Plus, it has long-lasting wear.”
