Jazz singer Meshiya Lake about favorite cosmetics
For "Available" we study the contents of beauty cases, dressing tables and cosmetic bags of interesting characters to us - and we show all this to you. As part of the Wild T Jazz concert series, held by Powerhouse Moscow, singer from New Orleans Meshiya Lake will perform with multi-instrumentalist Aurora Niland. The day before we met with Meshia and asked her about her favorite cosmetics and personal care.
About caring for yourself
Twice a day, I wash my face with soap and activated charcoal: it cleans well and does not dry the skin. Then apply serum on face, and then gel with aloe.
It is important for me to keep myself in good physical and emotional condition, because I spend a lot of time with my eight-month-old daughter Sirsey, and she needs a happy and contented mom. I love yoga, I love to run, I love to dance. I like almost all of my habits, and I don’t think I need to change anything: I exercise regularly, and I eat right, I try to eat only healthy food.
About cosmetics
My ideal make-up is a retro classic: black eyeliner and bright lipstick for performances, in everyday life I prefer a more relaxed natural makeup. Cosmetics can fix something, but it is important to take care of your body - for example, drink plenty of water. I like yoga, and I also regularly meditate to feel calm.
