Do you think over the images for the theater yourself?

What cosmetics do you always have with you?
Lipsticks and mini perfumes.
What's your favorite beauty product? What can't you do without?
Facial wash.
How do you usually care for your skin?
I wash my face very well. First, I cleanse the skin with oil, then I use a foam, and then a toner. My leaving is very simple. But I change the cream periodically and never use the same product so that the skin does not get used to it.
