Ahead of the label's new launch, the model chatted with L'OFFICIEL about all things beauty.

When it comes to the modern beauty world, it's not easy to come up with a look that perfectly complements your features, or investigate the ingredients in each and every trendy new product, because day by day, the industry expands even further and trends come and go even faster. That being said, if there's one thing we've learned in recent years, it's that sometimes less is more, and sometimes, that ideal product really is out there waiting somewhere. This season, YSL Beauty introduces its latest offering, the <a href="https://www.sephora.com/product/skin-affair-soft-glow-cushion-foundation-P524839?skuId=2962181&amp;icid2=products%20grid:p524839:product" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation</a>, designed for glowy, understated looks.&nbsp;
Lightweight and luminous, the new cushion foundation offers (mess-free) buildable coverage and plenty of skin-first ingredients that make for the ultimate everyday, on-the-go base.&nbsp;
For YSL Beauty ambassador Lila Moss, that approach is the key to achieving a glamorous look and a confident attitude towards daily makeup.&nbsp;"I think the main lesson I&rsquo;ve learnt is that there is no perfection with makeup, and it&rsquo;s more about going with what feels right. Sometimes I&rsquo;m doing my makeup and end up with a happy mistake that&rsquo;s worked out. Going with the flow and not taking it too seriously is my favorite way to think about it," Moss tells L'OFFICIEL.&nbsp;
Below, see our full conversation with Moss, who unpacks her daily model-off-duty routine, plus her own evolving relationship with beauty.&nbsp;

L'OFFICIEL: YSL Beauty&rsquo;s brand-new cushion foundation is equal parts luxe and convenient. Do you remember the first beauty product you carried around everywhere?
LILA MOSS: The first beauty product I carried around everywhere was a lip product that I loved to use as a cream blush too.&nbsp;
L'O: When it comes to your beauty or self-care routine, what makes you feel most confident?
LM: I love to gua sha. The routine of it in the morning is very calming and grounding, and always makes me wake up feeling better. When I want to feel confident but not wear too much makeup, my go-to is curling my eyelashes and YSL Beauty&rsquo;s lash latex mascara.&nbsp;
L'O: Whether you&rsquo;re backstage before a runway show or on set for a shoot, what kind of looks do you gravitate towards?&nbsp;
LM: When I&rsquo;m on a shoot or doing a runway, it&rsquo;s always fun to see what the hair and makeup team has come up with to tell the story. I love it when the makeup helps to transform you into the character, whether it&rsquo;s a big, smoky eye or a bleached brow, which I always love.&nbsp;
L'O: What does your everyday &ldquo;off-duty&rdquo; makeup look like?
LM: I like to keep it really simple, day to day. Touche &eacute;clat under the eyes, a little bit of mascara and bronzer, and a touch of blush. The new YSL Beauty lip liners are really great for a natural look, too.
L'O: Your first major campaign was in beauty. Since then, how has your relationship with makeup changed? Are there any beauty trends from the era you want to make a comeback, or do you favor a more timeless style?
LM: I think my relationship with makeup has become less intimidating. I&rsquo;ve found what I like and how I like to use it, rather than going in blindly and experimenting a lot with things and not knowing how to achieve the look I wanted. A beauty trend from that era that I think is slowly making a comeback is highlighter. It used to be powder, and now it&rsquo;s more dewy and creamy, but I definitely think we&rsquo;ll be seeing more of that shine.&nbsp;
