FOR RUBRIC "COSMETIC" 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 relationships with cosmetics
I work as a PR manager in a company that distributes niche perfumes and other cool cosmetic pieces, which I am very happy about. Cool, when what you love dearly, is connected with your profession.
I can not say that I am a beautician, buying up a thousand cans per month. I listen to the positive reviews of friends, and take the product of interest only after the tests. My skin is capricious, and caring for it is worth the gigantic effort. While in high school all classmates were struggling with acne and black spots, I tried to cope with all my might with constant peeling. I remember how I applied the foundation for the first time: by the end of the school day, he had not just tears, but had literally fallen off.
Since then, much has changed. I became more attentive to the care, and the tools that really came up remain in the cosmetic bag until something more effective separates us. Through trial and error, I found out that my skin is dehydrated: my whole life I thought it was dry, but it turned out that the T-zone is oily - that means that not everything is so bad, I simply have no moisture. No matter how pathetic it sounded, over the past two years I have developed my system of care - I consider it effective and enjoy sharing with friends.
About multistage care
When I come home from work, I immediately wash off the makeup with La Roshe-Posay micellar water (does not tighten, does not dry the skin, just paradise). After using Korean peeling-roll, bought in "Girlfriend" for three hundred rubles. Peeling is very good, I use it a maximum of three times a week. I usually take it out when there are parties with friends: after peeling and subsequent care, makeup lays down perfectly and lasts all day. Every day I clean my face with a foam, then apply a moisturizing lotion, then a serum. For dehydrated skin, it is better to choose moisturizing products. After some serums, it seems that no cream is needed at all, but I am always reinsured. Then I put a light consistency cream on my face, and I put another cream on my neck skin. The final stage, which I spotted among the Koreans, is a night mask that goes on top of all this diversity in order to enhance the effect.
About make-up, dark shades and glitter
Make-up depends on the mood and amount of time to collect. I actually do not dye to work, only sometimes I make a nude make-up to please myself. From Friday to Sunday evening I have a period of non-stop meetings with friends, usually I can not resist and spend in front of the mirror for two hours. Favorite image - clean tone, combed up eyebrows, a little mascara and bright lipstick. I love dark shades and piously believe that they perfectly fit Snow White. Now I'm searching for dark red closer to the wine and brick, so I will be grateful for the tip. Sometimes I add unusual tools - for example, luster for the eyelids. Since my skin is very light, I always interfere with The Body Shop's slightly lightening drops in the foundation. Sometimes I emphasize eyelashes with mascara: they are thick and bent up by nature, so special manipulations with them are not necessary. This makeup requires a good means of removal - Clarins oil comes to the rescue. After it there is no tightness, dryness and redness, the skin is moist, nourished, fresh.
Dad calls me forty: a year ago, I bought myself some cool unicorn glitter in Monki, put them on my eyelids and on my lips - my mood immediately rises. I could not resist Sasha Unisex's translated tattoos: these dermatologists categorically forbidden to do because of the abundance of birthmarks, and these can be worn every day.
