Clothes, skin, hair, figure - a woman's appearance is her calling card. I was lucky with my job: a happy combination of business with the opportunity to be always within walking distance from the epicenter of beauty. But a really smart, kind, generous soul and a man rich in inner world cannot live only with a picture. It is important to keep track of not only your form, but also to remember about the content.
About lipstick outside the lip contour, the recipe for foundation and make-up "a la natural"
I remember my first experience: with the money I got from the sale of ice cream, I bought myself cosmetics like Ruby Rose in a subway passage in a stall … That mascara made my eyes itch terribly and reddened, and lipstick just eaten into my lips with a death grip, showing even beyond the lip contour.
Thanks to her bitter experience, she became a supporter of natural ingredients and organic ingredients in cosmetics. They are the safest and most useful. Today I can say for sure that a good line-up is a deliberately good quality. This means that the properties promised by the manufacturer will be working, and not fictitious!
In general, I often go outside just with a healthy blush on my cheeks and a moisturizing balm on my lips.
I respect a beautiful, even complexion, so during the year I can buy up to four tubes of foundation. It is worth remembering that for the summer you need completely different textures than for the winter or autumn. Now, for example, I have a tone from Helena Rubinstein. In New York, I bought a limited edition product from Tom Ford, which I mix with a different shade of product, and I get an even, beautiful tan.
I also love Armani vibes and highlighters. Thanks to them, the effect of shining cheekbones and radiant smooth skin is provided. I have not changed Dior in my choice of mascara for many years. I tidy up my eyebrows either with a Bobbi Brown pencil, they have the right color for me - Crayon Sourcils, or with the Anastasia Beverly Hills set. I also love Edward Bess. These are products that can usually be bought at Colette, the most famous concept boutique in Paris for all fashionistas. It is not things that are sold here, but a lifestyle!
About makeup for clear intentions and an enhanced evening look
If I'm going to a business meeting and want to demonstrate my openness to my opponent, as well as clarity of intentions, I always focus on the eyes, draw thick and structured eyebrows, and just emphasize my lips with gloss.
Although in fact, if your business is the beauty industry, then bright lipstick is quite acceptable. It is during your conversation or speech that the interlocutor concentrates on the lips. It is believed that information is remembered much better after a conversation with a girl who emphasized her lips, for example, with a bright red tint.
But the main rule of evening make-up for me is complete harmony with hair, clothes and mood! Evening loves amplification, makeup volume. Eyelashes are thicker, colors are richer! Here you can already "shine" with shadows, bright lipsticks from Chanel or Dolce Gabbana.
About the fight against dry skin and a unique beautician
I have combination skin, but sometimes I tend to dry out. I get rid of the problem by regulating my diet: I add omega fatty acids.
At home, I love to use everything that nature itself offers me: if you drop evening primrose oil into a regular cream, it will become a magical moisturizing nectar for dry skin. And if you sit in a bathhouse with an argan oil mask, and then rinse with herbs specially selected according to the constitutional type, you can restore weakened and dry hair, as well as improve the condition of the scalp.
More often I go completely without makeup, so I figured it out a long time ago with the question of how to look attractive without any paint. The foundation is balance in body, mind and spirit. In a simple way: the best woman's cosmetologist is happiness. For example, time with family, loved ones and kids is the best balancing and therapy.
On the weaknesses of hair care products and magic pearls of beauty
In one series of a hair care brand, there are always both strengths and weaknesses at the same time. Therefore, it is important to constantly change funds and combine them with different companies. Among my favorites right now is Alterna Ten - shampoo and conditioner for better hydration and nutrition. Deep restoration is provided by the Caviar Repair line. At Oribe, I recommend shampoo with the modest name "Inspiration of the Day" for crazy shine, which is suitable for daily care.
I solve the problem of hair electrification with the help of Alterna cream lotion. Before blow-drying or thermal styling, I use the Protein Texture Restoration leave-in cream and the Absolute Thermal Protection spray from Alterna. I also just adore the magic pearls of beauty with keratin, amino acids and panthenol Pearls of beauty from Aldo Coppola, which are easy to take with you on a trip.
About the first staining in 10 years and how to quickly return to your native color
I painted for the first time in the last 10 years quite recently - this summer in the Italian salon Aldo Coppola using the shatush technique. But at home I decided to tint everything and bring it back to its natural native color. My stylists offered me Kydra Nature, a coloring cream formulated with special plants without ammonia.
How to achieve baby skin and home SPA
You can use several products for a spa treatment at home: a natural body scrub, black soap, unrefined sea salt and beta-carotene.
I also always nourish and moisturize my skin, alternating between Decleor aromatherapy body care products. They have especially good anti-stretch marks cream gel and a nourishing universal remedy for face, body and hair. In general, I really love aromatherapy. For the smell and the absence of harmful components in the composition, I use almond shower oil, L'Occitane.
I have tried all the products from the care of my children and I really think that the products for babies, which are as clean as possible from chemistry, fragrances and preservatives, are also suitable for mothers!
On the flexibility of the mind and sport as a philosophy
Movement cleanses, renews, energizes. I like to talk about movement as a psychological and physiological influence on a person. For example, yoga and stretching give flexibility not only to the body, but also to the mind. And martial arts, elements of dance and ballet will give the same thing as art therapy.
About how to eat everything and not gain weight
I eat whatever I really want. But for me it is important to maintain the principle of mindful eating. This approach helps the body to regain balance and return to a harmonious state. Therefore, I do not store any refined products at home and follow the principles of seasonality in choosing products, and also pay attention to their vitamin composition.
I try to eat etiquette, without any phone or TV on.
Founder of the Orchid Nails manicure, pedicure and nail extension studio
The success of a girl directly depends on her appearance. No wonder the legendary Coco Chanel said: "You will not get a second chance to create a first impression" - I completely agree with her. But this does not mean that you need to work only on your appearance - good upbringing, manners and the ability to easily maintain a conversation are equally important.
About a sense of proportion and safe cosmetics
In business makeup, the main thing is to keep a sense of proportion. But at the same time, you should feel confident and comfortable. I use foundation, blush, mascara and lipstick. This is quite enough for me. Now among my favorites are Tom Ford products.
As for any girl who looks after her skin, when choosing decorative cosmetics, the quality, composition and safety of products are important to me. It is also good when the palette contains a sufficient number of colors and shades - this allows you to choose the most suitable tool.
When I am going to an important event, I turn to professionals for help. Depending on the look, I choose one of two things: either smoky eyes, or lipstick in bright shades.
About simple secrets of beautiful skin and special moisturizing masks
In order for your face to always be in excellent condition, you need to follow several important rules: apply high-quality salon and home care, lead a healthy lifestyle, eat balanced and, of course, get enough sleep.
And I trust the professional French brand Biologique Recherche for my skin care. I especially love their moisturizing mask, which the beautician recommended to me. After it, the skin just shines with health.
About pep and body care
I am very anxious about body care. First of all, I use a moisturizer or oil every day. I use a scrub several times a week, and before going to the beach, I must apply a product with a sun protection factor. I also go in for sports regularly: I train in the gym according to an individual program. I try to attend workouts 3-4 times a week, even when I am far from home. I need activity in order to always be in good physical shape and cheerful mood.
I do not sit on any diets, I just try to eat right, focusing on natural products. But at the same time, I always listen to my body. If he asks for dessert, I allow myself to eat a small piece, knowing that I will work out all the calories I have gained at the next workout.
Theater actress. Vakhtangov. He plans to open a clinic for healthy eating and weight loss, now he is treating overweight patients.
A well-groomed girl is always confident in herself. She is beautiful and noticeable. And the business and the manner of communicating with people depend on this. Working on your appearance is a lot of work, which, however, takes a lot of time. But this is success! Although beauty should be not only external, but also internal.
About comfortable cosmetics and makeup that will not distract from the conversation
Personal feelings are what I primarily rely on when choosing decorative cosmetics. It is important for me that it is comfortable to apply on myself. The smell of the product, texture and durability play a decisive role. In addition, I always pay attention to whether the makeup products clog the pores and whether they harm the skin.
To prepare for negotiations, I usually emphasize my face with unobtrusive daytime makeup. So nothing distracts from the main thing - the topic of conversation. And if I'm going to an evening event, I just add Chanel mascara and tone, as well as Bobbi Brown shadows to my everyday make-up. Finish the look with a light blush and powder from Guerlain.
On the importance of "monitoring" the condition of the skin and the use of hyaluronic serum
Sleep and good mood always help to look good! But it is also important to monitor your diet and select care products in accordance with the climate in which you live. So, I constantly "observe" the face and, if I see any changes, immediately nourish the skin. From time to time I make masks, and on the plane, to get rid of dryness, I use patches - it is very effective.
I also use whitening emulsions, moisturizers, collagen and hyaluronic face serum. And I remove the oily shine with powder napkins.
My home care includes all kinds of masks, scrubs, tonics. And Moroccan argan oil is a real "fairy tale" for the face, body and hair. I really like it! For the body, I use Japanese moisturizers with a light texture and scent.
About hair treatment series and time-consuming coloring
I take care of my hair with the Kerastase professional line. I always choose different series of this brand depending on whether I want to give my hair - shine, hydration or nutrition. I also really like the Secret Key and Moroccan Oil treatment series, and my favorite shampoo is Oribe. No other product gives such a light scent from the hair as it does.
But as for hair color, I almost never update it myself. I have a complex color, so dyeing turns into a very laborious process that requires mixing different shades in weighed proportions. It takes a whole recipe for cooking! And if my stylist cannot accept me, then the recipe is passed on to another specialist. The best paint, in my opinion, is from the Kydra by Phyto brand.
About harmony and importance of sport
Sport is my favorite pastime. I do a cycle track in the gym, and, I must admit, this is not the easiest physical activity. Although I am proud to withstand it! But, of course, the instructor conducts the training with me. The goal is to feel great, release hormones of joy, and gain a toned body. It is imperative to disperse the blood with sports to improve health.
About strict nutrition and rare indulgences
Most often, I adhere to a proper balanced diet. The basis is a low-fat protein diet. Has long formed the habit of counting fats / proteins / carbohydrates. Once a week I try to do a fasting day - it helps a lot to stabilize.
There are, of course, moments when I can afford a little more - on holidays, traveling and so on. I just taught myself not to bother, but to have fun. And of course, I drink a lot of water - this is the basis for building a beautiful body and giving skin radiance.
About the place of the salon in marital relations and how to choose "your" master
I do manicure-pedicure only by a master. I will never repeat the work he is doing. And besides, in the salon there is always some sense of joy, satisfaction. Women there are fed with endorphins, after which they feed their beloved man! Therefore, if possible, at least occasionally, it is definitely worth coming to such places.
I also come to salons for moisturizing, nutrition, cleaning, relaxation treatments and massage. I completely trust my cosmetologists, because they always know exactly what condition the skin is in and what exactly it needs.
I choose the specialists in the salons by their inner feeling, by their hands. I am very sensitive to energy, disposition in communication. Masters are usually with me for many years: I don't like to get used to another person again.
