Welcome to Things I Finish, a franchise where Coveteur editors probe their favorite tastemakers about the things they buy, watch, listen to, and consume on repeat.
We all know Pamela Anderson for her iconic work on Baywatch, The Naked Gun and, more recently, Gia Coppola's The Last Showgirl. But from a beauty perspective, we know and love her for being the definition of aging gracefully. Anderson has approached aging, which some might find daunting, naturally. She doesn't wear makeup and, in recent years, has rejected cosmetic procedures and surgeries. All she needs in her life are quiet moments tending to her garden, home cooked meals, and peaceful baths—plus her beloved, hydrating Sonsie skincare products.
Anderson joined Sonsie, a clean vegan skincare brand aimed to serve each and every skin type, as a co-founder in 2024. Like Anderson herself, the brand encourages consumers to embrace authenticity. "I want to look like myself, feel like myself, and that means taking care of myself on my terms," Anderson writes on the Sonsie website.
Ahead, we caught up with Pamela Anderson about what taking care of herself on her own terms looks like—the products she can’t live without, the elixirs and serenity she creates for herself with the help of her garden, and the TV shows and treats that she looks forward to after a long day.

Sonsie Multi Moisture Cream
"My Sonsie Multi Moisture Cream… I think it’s my favorite product ever. The texture is incredible — melts right into the skin… My skin loves it. It’s the product I always have backups of… I use it on my hands and elbows too."
The Serum You Finish:
Sonsie Super Serum
"The Sonsie Super Serum… it’s the right kind of light, gives you perfect, natural, dewy skin. I use it under my moisturizer and the two together are the magic red carpet combo."
The Hair Product You Finish:
Biolage Ultra Hydra Source Shampoo & Conditioner
"The Biolage products are good. Lately, I love their hydration line—my hair always needs moisture."
The Fragrance You Finish:
Evoke Occu Rose Oil
"I make my own! Rose oil is where I start, direct from my garden… a ‘love potion’. It has secret ingredients—a few drops of ylang ylang and sandalwood. There’s something so personal about wearing a scent you’ve created yourself…"
The Bath Product That You Finish:
Epsoak Epsom Salt
"Epsom salt, a little baking soda, oil and rose petals in my bath, why not… its my favorite after a long day… I am a bather. It transforms your entire mood… your body knows when you’re honoring it."
The Candle You Finish:
Flamingo Estate Tuscan Rosemary
"Flamingo’s Night Tuscan Rosemary is a must. I love rosemary—it’s good for memory, they say—I prefer to sweet or synthetic. I want a candle that smells like somewhere beautiful, like my garden gates are loaded with rosemary—brings good luck."
The TV Show You Finish:
