In a recent interview from her home in Las Vegas, Gibson discussed the process of writing her memoir and shared some of her favorite beauty products and treatments.
How does it feel to have this rush of press and energy as you promote the book?

Was it a challenge to make time to write it, or did it all just come out?
Gibson discussed the process of deciding what to include in the memoir, reflecting on the rich tapestry of her life experiences and the guidance of her collaborator, Richard Buskin.
That’s a great compliment. Since you did say you’re the person who’s always working, are you better now letting work be work and your personal life be your personal life?
Gibson acknowledged the importance of balancing work and personal life, emphasizing the need for downtime and unplugging to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Very true. Since we are a beauty magazine, I have to ask, are there any beauty products you really like, the stuff you’ve used forever that you swear by?
Gibson shared her love for organic and lightly scented beauty products, mentioning her favorite items from the Honest brand and emphasizing the importance of self-care and balance in her beauty routine.
Debbie Gibson appreciates Jessica Alba for creating Keranique, as it is a hair product that she loves and doesn’t irritate her.

When it comes to cosmetic procedures, Debbie shares that she recently tried Xeomin to address aging lines and found it to be effective. She also discusses her makeup preferences, opting for softer browns in mascara and using copper liners like Victoria Beckham and Melt for a pop of color in her hazel eyes.
