About care
Until the age of twenty-five, I did not use face cream at all and washed my face with soap - until my colleagues were ashamed. Until twenty-seven I was sure that I have a gene of eternal youth - of course, it turned out that this was not the case. I have already experienced a boom of exfoliating brushes, and now I have a simple basic care: foam or gel for washing, serum and cream. In winter, instead of a cream, I can immediately apply a mask that is instantly absorbed. In general, I have very dry skin, in winter even my ears peel off, and a pronounced dry eye syndrome, so I cannot moisturize.
They say that there are "women-face" and "women-body", that is, some carefully care for or the first, and others - for the second. I definitely "woman-face." Elementary body treatment: shower gel, scrub several times a week, cream. In winter, I don’t even go to pedicure salons and use Japanese Sosu socks - I really like the effect of snake skin. I also have a fad on my teeth, so I go to the dentist every six months. At work I keep toothpaste and brush, at home there are two pastes in the shower and one in the sink, there is an irrigator. It has long been thinking about how to put braces.
About make-up
I can not say that I love to paint, rather it is a habit and a vital necessity. Makeup prefer neutral and natural. For a long time, my business card, like many, had red lips. The most common question I’m asking is: "What are you doing for you to have such radiant skin?" In fact, my achievements in this are not - I do not peel and do not regularly use scrubs. I have a good heredity, so the skin is smooth on its own, due to which the “shine” is obtained: BB creams fit perfectly and the light reflects beautifully, even if you do not use a highlighter. In general, I have a “model” face — that is, a blank canvas on which to paint anything. If I do not make up, then just merge with the crowd. One day, my young man joked: "You look different every day, it feels like I'm meeting different girls all the time."
