Leonor Macedo has been with us from the beginning. She was one of the first content creators to share our product (because she actually used it and wanted to show it). She loves the sun, discovery, exercise, and healthy eating, and following her has also been a wonderful journey!
Now you can learn more about her in this inside-out interview.

TO CREATE
Who and what inspires you?
People who pursue their dreams and work towards inner happiness and personal development.
What else do you need to create?
A lot of things, but on a personal level I would say emotional stability. I'm a very intense person and therefore very emotional as well.

How do you relieve stress? With physical exercise, usually surfing, yoga, or an outdoor run.
A woman who inspires you: I'm inspired by many women. But I couldn't fail to mention the one closest to me and who inspires me EVERY day: my mother. My mother has a beautiful personal development project, and she's certainly a great example of determination and authenticity for me.
NOURISH
Your ideal diet is … Plant-based.
What you always have in the refrigerator: Fruit.
Dinner-saving recipe: Buddha Bowl (basically adding all the leftover vegetables in the fridge and adding a protein, some toppings and/or sauce, it's a great way to use up leftovers and make a quick meal). I always try to add a carbohydrate as well. And I always try to make a colorful bowl, using ingredients of different colors.
Favorite drink: Water.
Favorite snack: Smoothie Bowls.
Favorite restaurant: I have many. But I love Local Your Healthy Kitchen, Jays, Legasea, Nalu Bowls, Boa Bao, Confraria, ....
Favorite cookbooks: Earthy Andy - "Plant over Processed" and Matilde Macedo - "Nourish & Flourish".
TO CARE
Beauty icon: Jess Lee Buchanan.
An essential piece of clothing: A bikini.
One thing that's always part of her beauty routine: Moisturizing.
Favorite MPL'beauty product: Puro Sol Facial Serum and Detox Drops
How do you feel most beautiful? When I'm happy and my body is in balance, I think the glow I radiate is immediately different. Therefore, when I feel most beautiful is when I'm feeling my best on the inside. I really like being natural (without makeup, without anything) and that's why I highly value hydrated skin with a good complexion.
