Attitude to cosmetics
I was not lucky to be born with perfect skin, so that my many years of desperate bihumanity is not a whim or a whim, but a very burdensome, time-consuming and extremely expensive (both in terms of energy and in terms of finances) necessity. No matter how pompous it sounds, the fight against imperfections is a cross that I have to bear until the end of my days without the right to take a breather. I can afford - and I allow - to buy banks in bulk and to transfer to a beautician amounts that are approximately equal to the mortgage loan contributions, but, alas, I cannot afford to skimp on the care procedure - so no matter how much and in whatever condition I go home, I still have to smear at first with what I need, and only then collapse and fall asleep. But on the topic of hair, nails and shapes, I don’t bother at all - at least with something, after all, I should have been lucky.
About care
Favorite funds I try not to change and use the same thing for many years in a row, and I’m not buying this one by one, but whole lines — it’s considered that, in combination with each other, funds from one line work more efficiently. Today's favorites are La Mer and iS Clinical. For a long time I was extremely skeptical about La Mer: firstly, it was unforgivably mistaken about the fact that there was no need to be friends with oily cream, secondly, how passionately everyone around this brand was deified and cultivated, it always seemed suspicious to me, and and finally, thirdly, the rather aggressive PR policy of the brand confused. Rezubedil me a wonderful make-up artist Andrei Shilkov, for which I still wildly grateful to him. As for iS Clinical, in general, I wanted, like all those who have already appreciated the absolutely awesome wow-effect of these funds, to refrain from advertising our relationship with the brand, but still I’ll say that this is unrealistically cool American cosmeceuticals even hopeless cases. I use both of them and the other ruler paired up with the brilliant Clarisonic Mia washing brush - for recommending again many thanks to Andrei Shilkov, and for lying in my bathroom, thanks to Kira Plastinina's right hand Yulia Prudko, who was not too lazy to bring me her from new york.
About decorative cosmetics
Tonal means I use it about twice a year or even less; I don’t use glitters and lipsticks at all. Lacquers are in bulk, but I do manicures and pedicures exclusively in My Beautiful Lady on Sretenka - the best of local artists not only a virtuoso of his craft, but also an ex-psychotherapist. The perfect combination.
About jars in the photo
SUPPORT CHANEL PROFESSIONAL EYELINER DUO - In the first year, I foolishly lashed my eyelashes, after which my eyelashes fell off in general. The compassionate Lena Zamyatina advised me to buy this palette, with the help of which, they say, you can draw arrows, and no one will notice anything. Follow her advice to this day. An extremely economical thing, if I had not forgotten it at the hotel, I would have used it for another ten years and would have been able to pass it by inheritance, but had to buy a new one.
FACE MASKS: BLISS FABULOUS SKIN-REVIVING RUBBERIZING MASK - in my opinion, the brand’s self-esteem is somewhat higher than the quality of its products, but my obsession with cool things sometimes wins over common sense. Well, I must admit that the pores she really worthy.
UTENA PURESA SHEET MASK - I like Japanese brands. If applied with courses, then it seems to me that after a while you can easily give up the powder.
SK-II FACIAL TREATMENT MASK - a cult product of a cult brand in Japan. Often I neglect the salon procedures in favor of this mask - her hyalurontic concentration is simply awesome, it smoothes her face, I suppose, not worse than lethargic sleep.
PHILOSOPHY MICRODELIVERY TRIPLE ACID BRIGHTENING PEEL - tissue disks impregnated with a mix of acids, a kind of surface peeling in haste. I use it in moments when I feel generously smeared with Ossetian pie.
SERUMS (LEFT RIGHT): iS Clinical Pro-Heal Serum Advance +, Skin Regimen Juvenate-Pro Booster, Active Serum and C & E Serum Advance + (both iS Clinical), Skin Regimen Hydra-Pro Booster - I am obsessed with serums, these are very convenient products for such a lazy person like me. After tormenting half a year with the Erno Laszlo multistage care system, which required a hard-to-remember application algorithm, I suddenly found out that one bubble may be quite enough to look quite well-groomed - and how can you dislike serum after that? Moisturizers in the Comfort Zone are saved on airplanes, and I never part with iS Clinical crumbs (which is why I always buy them in travel formats) - there is no impossible for them, they even cope with calluses when necessary.
BALM FOR LIPS LA MER THE LIP BALM - while all my girlfriends go crazy with Carmex, I am dragged from La Mer. I can do without comments - it ends in Moscow so quickly.
GEL CREAM LA MER THE MOISTURIZING GEL CREAM - lightweight variation of the legendary cream of the same name. More or less everything has been heard about the miraculous properties of this bestseller, so I will not grovel.
CARE OF CHANEL SUBLIME DE CHANEL - just good ink, I advised, in my opinion, again, Andrei Shilkov, whose opinion I really appreciate.
AROMA CHANEL LES EXCLUSIFS DE CHANEL 31 RUE CAMBON - some kind of creepy exclusive, a gift I do not remember whom. Sufficiently heavy aroma - it goes well with my heavy character.
LA SER MER THE CONCENTRATE - my golden rule: in any extreme situation, smear this thing. A universal thing, practically a beauty panacea, concurrently the best primer in the world. More than once, this concentrate saved me from the effects of severe sunburns (the latter happened long before our meeting with iS Clinical Extreme Protect SPF 30), not only shortened the rehabilitation period after a serious invasion, it's easier to talk about problems.
TONIC LA MER OIL ABSORBING TONIC - well what can I say? An indispensable thing for oily skin. Two drops - and as otfotoshopili.
SUNSKRIN IS CLINICAL EXTREME PROTECT SPF 30 - the only truly non-comedogenic sanskrin from all that I have ever tried to try, but thanks to the work in gloss I tried a lot.
La Mer The Refining Facial Scrub - washbasin on weekdays (washes, as they say, until the squeak, which I love very much);
