She doesn’t like dresses, but she always looks feminine. She chooses subtle makeup, but her eyes are expressive at the same time. How she manages to remain stylish and beautiful even during pregnancy, Woman’s Day learned from Elina herself.
Daily beauty treatments: I wash my face with foams, then apply serum on my face and neck. So that the skin does not get used to it, I change the brand of serum about once a month and a half. The last step in moisturizing care is a gel with gold particles, after which I start to make up. I don’t use any home remedies, except sometimes I wipe my face with ice cubes or just ice water.
Salon care: I adore the beautician! Even now, when I am expecting a child, visits to a beauty salon are mandatory for me. Of course, the master offers me only those procedures that are possible during pregnancy: moisturizing, cleansing, serums, nourishing masks, face and neck massage.
Beauty taboo: I think that there can only be a taboo on what is incredibly dangerous to health: when sawing, crushing, removing the ribs, lengthening the legs … And the rest is quite acceptable. There is no limit to perfection, everyone determines for himself how he wants to look.
Cosmetic bag: I always carry a minimum of funds with me: lip pencil, mascara and moisturizing lipstick. I don’t follow fashion trends in makeup, rather, I pay attention to the latest in cosmetics itself. I usually do my makeup in pastel colors – thanks to my mom, she taught me that. Sometimes I choose bright lips and arrows. Honestly, I am not able to draw different incredible eyes, I learned to make beautiful arrows recently, about five months ago. But, by the way, I don’t have a big need for complex manipulations with cosmetics: since there are a lot of shootings, most often professional stylists do the images for me.
Catering: I have always been very attentive to what I eat. I gave up canned sauces, and even more so mayonnaise-ketchup, unless they are homemade, two and a half years ago. I also don’t drink sweet soda. Water is what you need! True, I am also picky about water, so I usually go to buy food myself. I always study the composition of the product, I pay attention to additives, flavor enhancers and GMOs. The huge problem of our time is that all these harmful substances accumulate in the body, causing various diseases. Now, waiting for my daughter, I am doubly picky! I eat a lot of berries, I don’t really like fruits, but I appreciated our apples – ordinary ones from the village. When you bite them, the pulp immediately darkens, this indicates a large amount of iron. By the way, we have our own vegetable garden on the Dom-2 project, and we eat homemade greens.
Fashion style: I love cashmere madly. I don’t really like dresses, I only wear them for some special events. I love jackets, coats and hats. The colors I choose are pastel, soft cream and sand.
Autumn selection: I plan to definitely buy boots to wear them with leggings above the knees and knitted elongated sweaters, ponchos. Now, since I am in position, it is important for me that it is warm and comfortable. I also want to buy boots. I asked my friends to bring me some of the autumn clothes from Paris.
“Fashion weaknesses”: My wardrobe is full of such things. For example, leather jackets – I have a million and they all look alike! It’s the same story with ripped jeans. I also adore glasses, vests, winter sneakers and hand-embroidered uggs. And shoes! The main weakness in the wardrobe? This is not to go and do not urgently replenish it!
