Model Irina Martynenko about filming a movie and favorite cosmetics
FOR THE FACE "HEAD" we study the contents of beauty cases, dressing tables and cosmetic bags of interesting characters to us - and we show all this to you.
About care
Immediately after waking up, I drink a glass of warm water - I do it already on the machine. If there was a party yesterday, but today you urgently need to run somewhere, using the Malin + Goetz mask. I have long been looking for a means to wake up: it is fast, with a cool texture and takes only five minutes. To cleanse the skin in the morning and in the evening I use Aesop or Grown Alchemist, after which I apply tonic and cream. I'm a fan of Aesop: I like the smells, the compositions and the concept. In winter, turn on the cream with oils, because I have very dry skin. Help me deal with dryness in two stages.
I like using organic cosmetics; shampoos and hair care periodically change, now I buy Davines. After a shower, I always apply body cream, in the winter I like thicker textures. When I fly to Thailand, I bring with me huge cans of coconut oil, with which you can do anything: prepare, apply to your hair, moisturize your skin. On the skin, however, it is better to mix more with some means - sometimes it starts to dry.
About make-up
Thanks to modeling work, I fell in love with naturalness. When you are painted every day for filming, then in everyday life you are unlikely to want to repeat it. But naturalness has always been closer to me - I have never had problems with self-expression at school, for these purposes I rather used clothes. Now if I use decorative cosmetics, then most often it is a simple brown pencil: I put it on the lower eyelid to make the eyes more expressive; mascara too much changes the look. The exception to the rule is glitter on the nails and face and highlighter. Closer to winter, we with friends create a festive mood with their help.
My attitude has not changed, but I think that in general, cosmetics are fun. There was a period when I knew that I wouldn’t paint, but I came to some shop and bought shadows, mascara, highlighters with the idea that later I would try everything.
About sport and mode
Now I have spontaneous work from project to project, but I always insert into the training schedule three times a week for an hour and a half. My friends and I are lucky to have a great coach who has also become a friend to us. The team spirit helps: at home I can sometimes work out according to the instructions of the Nike Training Club, but when there is a coach who encourages and helps you, you get more buzz. Even if I come and say: “Milosh, I don’t want to study today, my mood is bad” - this does not work. But after class, it is always easier on the soul, so I adore sport. Physical activity can be entered even in everyday affairs. After waking up, I just jump a hundred times, or, when I brush my teeth, I move each leg back and to the side fifteen times - that’s another exercise. I think it works if you practice it daily.
I think that it is not necessary to chase the ideal schedule: if it does not work, then it does not work. During periods of dense work, I go out of the usual mode, to focus on the work, and then just pouring into ordinary life. Favorite activities are not a duty, but something that makes you feel better; besides, plans help not to postpone everything until the last moment. There is a phrase that the best cure for laziness is "here and now." I think this applies to all areas of life.
About the shooting
From the second year I worked a lot as a model, I constantly left. Then it was time to write a diploma, and I lived in Moscow for a year. During the filming of the video, I realized that I like this way of self-expression much more. This is not just a task for a minute: you need some kind of emotional tension, you need to tell a story, express it through actions. Cinema has always attracted me.
It seems that a year or two has already passed since I starred in the Kungs vs Cookin 'on 3 Burners clip, and not so long ago the video of the "Leningrad" group was released. One more, while secret project has now been completed: I am very happy that I participated in it, this has not happened to me yet. It doesn't matter to me whether a big role or a small one: when you “live” in a process that you like, you simply approach it responsibly. We had a lot of night shifts, and I liked the other mode: you work at night, you wake up during the day, you run for coffee - and again to work. I want more!
On vacation and travel
When I get very tired and I feel that I cannot pack up, travel helps me. Moscow is very dynamic, trying to try everything, you often forget to listen to yourself. In such cases, I just can take and fly to my sister in Thailand, stay there for a month to miss friends, city and work. This makes it possible to rethink what is happening. To relax, I go with friends to Tarusa - they have a house there, where we spend time as a family. We make breakfasts, read books, go swimming, play volleyball and basketball. Sincerity surrounding charges; it's great to just lie on the grass in summer, play with children. I also put a Calm meditation application, recently we tried it with a friend in Rome. All day we tried to do everything in a hurry, and in a hurry, and at night we sat on the stairs near the Forum, when there was no one around, closed our eyes, listened to music and relaxed.
Sometimes, when thoughts prevail, I take a piece of paper and start writing. I just break through, I can not stop, I write, I write - and then lets go. In general, I like the crazy mode with constant employment and movement. I feel harmonious: when there is work, I am happy, but in my free time I will also find something to do. A good skill is not to blame yourself for not doing anything. These days can always be used as time for development or to pay attention to family and friends.
