The actress, who recently aired a new series “Cycle” on the TV channel “Russia 1” and the play “A Man with Home Delivery”, told Woman’s Day about the secrets of spring self-care.
Face
The most important thing in my profession is makeup removal and washing. It is difficult to wash off a thick layer of cosmetics and stage make-up! After cleansing, I apply a towel soaked in hot water to my face. This is my personal morning ritual of preparation for cream and lotion – it very refreshes the complexion, the vessels dilate. Some, by the way, heats such towels in the microwave, the main thing is that it is not too hot for the skin.
With the appearance of the spring sun (it is not as safe as it might seem), I start using SPF – I protect the skin from the appearance of age spots.
In the winter I used a cream with fruit acids, but recently I removed it, replacing the “winter” acids with mild “spring” scrubs and peels – mainly Valmont and Biologic Research. I also love retinol cosmetics for tightening the skin, but now it is not relevant – it is better to use it in the cold season.
Salon procedures
The last procedure I tried was Hydro Facial hardware cosmetology. A jet of air with a vitamin cocktail is an excellent boost of moisturizing after the heating season and the stove in the car, which dry out the skin. I also love RF lifting and it can be done any season. But I do it infrequently, once every three to four months. I like that there is no deep tissue damage. I love meso cocktails, especially with hyaluronic acid, but I do them infrequently – in order for the marks, papules and bruises to heal, you need to spend several days at home: you cannot cover them with makeup.
And, of course, professional salon care – collagen and alginate masks that increase skin turgor. For procedures I go to Sensavi on Frunzenskaya Street – there is RF-lifting, lasers, and good cosmetology care, which is desirable to do once a week.
Hair
Since I dye my hair in light colors once every month and a half, I like Lebel’s Happiness for Hair – 5-6 stages of moisturizing and saturating the hair with vitamins. It “raises” the color and neutralizes the yellow pigment – all blondes dream about it. I see good effect on the ends and the hair is loose and nice.
I make masks as needed, but I don’t forget thermal protection: a lot of styling!
Body
I hope my body is always ready for the beach season (laughs). But, in order to be fully armed, in the spring I use salt scrubs more actively, always with oils. Honey massage also perfectly renews the skin. In general, massages are a combination of business and pleasure. I love both manual and LPG, pressotherapy. I try to try classic salon procedures, but, for example, I began to do wraps less often, although at one time I liked it. But now it, sticky and cold, is not inspiring.
