The last winter days should be used for personal care: to tidy up the skin, after winter and vitamin deficiency, it needs it, to update the hairstyle and … What else do experts advise to do to look spectacular and fashionable?
About myself. As a child, she loved to play the game “Do it beautifully”. The bottom line was to come up with a new look for your girlfriends. As I got older and got a higher education with a degree in directing, I began to “do beautifully” on creative platforms – on stage, at holidays and street events. Then for over 10 years I was engaged in graphic design. And only on maternity leave my childhood dream – to make girls beautiful – came true. I learned to be a brow-artist, mastered the creation of the perfect golden ratio eyebrows. And the coveted practice began. Now, seeing how girls lack knowledge in the field of self-styling eyebrows, I created an author’s training course.
What will be fashionable this spring. This spring dictates new trends – nude look, wide eyebrows like Cara Delevingne, dark lipstick and glitter as part of everyday makeup. But, in my opinion, in the spring it will be fashionable, first of all, the skin that shines with health. For the last month of winter, I recommend a course of peels (preferably with fruit acids) and moisturizing with hyaluronic acid. The acid provides instant hydration to dry skin. In addition, it activates natural processes for its production by the body.
What should every girl try in the new season? Every girl in the spring should definitely try bright colored eye makeup and even eyebrows. How tired our eyes are to look at the gray-white-dirty nature during the long winter, how we want flashes of color. Draw graphic lines, arcs and chaotic strokes. You can use a stencil or give free rein to imagination, thickness and shape do not matter, the main thing is a rich color to match the clothes or complementary to the color of the eyes. As for the eyebrows, the most daring can give them a blue, pink or yellow color with colored mascara. At least for a photo shoot, you should use this technique.
Three must haves, in your opinion? The first thing you can’t do without this spring is contoured eyebrows. For my brows, I use a MasterBrow pencil from Maybelline New York – it smooths the hairs, they look natural, and Brow Gel is also from Maybelline New York. And fans of creamy textures can safely emphasize their eyebrows with a special lipstick from Anastasia Beverly Hills DeepBrow, it is waterproof and can withstand stress up to 18 hours and even more.
I also recommend the Black Pearl & Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch from Farm stay for a radiant look. An amazing effect can be achieved if you apply them daily: puffiness decreases noticeably, wrinkles – “crow’s feet” decrease.
Well, the third must-have of spring is the i-Divine 578 Storm palette of bright eyeshadows from Sleek Makeup. Vibrant colors, perfect coverage, 12 hours without pilling or shedding. I love such delicate textures.

About myself. I have been doing the art of make-up for three years. I got into the beauty industry after preparing an interview with Vladimir Kalinchev, at that time the official makeup artist of Max Factor in Russia, for the Fashion Collection magazine. During an interview, Vladimir said that there are few men in this profession, but they achieve more success than women. He began to learn more and more about makeup and soon completely went into this business.
What will be fashionable this spring. Eyebrows, eyebrows and again eyebrows: thin, wide, thick, long. The main thing in this variety is to choose exactly the shape that suits your face, and this requires professional services of a make-up artist. Here it is best to use the advice of friends, in other words “word of mouth”. Makeup will also be in vogue for maximum naturalness, so the main emphasis will be on creating the perfect radiant or glossy skin. Remember to take good care of your skin. Prepare your face thoroughly for makeup.
What should every girl try in the new season? Spring is a time of change, so girls shouldn’t be afraid to experiment with their looks. But remember: everything should be in moderation. In pursuit of fashion trends, you can lose your own individuality. Try delicate natural shades of lipsticks and shadows in your makeup.
Three must haves, in your opinion? For me, at the moment, my favorite mascara is Roller Lash from Benefit. The brush separates and colors eyelashes well. There is no clumping effect of eyelashes. This brand also offers Gimme Brow fixing gels and Ka-Brow eyebrow lipsticks. Among the correctors for masking circles under the eyes, I can highlight the corrector from Paese. Apply the product with your hands and use patting movements to drive into the problem area. Among the foundation products, I can single out creams from the Italian brand EvaGarden. Previously, the brand was engaged in the production of exclusively cosmetic cosmetics. Therefore, today most of the decorative cosmetics, including foundation, contain a care formula. The brand is also famous for its long-lasting lipsticks.

About: many may say that at the age of 28 you can have more serious interests, and the specialty “economist” simply obliges. That was until I settled down at home on maternity leave. Many articles, videos were studied, and I was more and more imbued with interest in the world of multi-colored jars, various textures and such incomprehensible compositions to me. But the catalyst for the creation of the blog was a sense of fairness – tired of listening to dishonest ads. And I decided to bring the truth to the masses. Now you rarely see negative reviews on my blog, I write about what I really like and what I want to share with the girls who are just starting the path of learning about makeup.
What will be fashionable this spring. In short, this spring the main emphasis is placed on sleek, glowing and healthy skin, quite active shadows, the presence of glitter in the makeup and blush, which are applied to the entire cheekbone. But it is pointless to follow trends unconditionally! After all, if your skin, for example, is prone to oily content, then “radiant skin” will absolutely not suit you; or eyes with an overhanging eyelid, then it will be enormous difficulties for you to draw yourself a fashionable graphic arrow, generously powdered with glitter.
What should every girl try in the new season? I would recommend bright accents on the eyes! Now both luxury and mass market cosmetics have in their arsenal both bright eyeliners and eye shadow palettes for any occasion. And it is not the first season that colored ink does not give up its positions, and when, if not in the spring, try something bright and exciting consciousness?
Three must haves, in your opinion? Every season I find some interesting directions and try to play it on my face. But there are certain must have, which I do not change from season to season. First, it’s the eyebrows! My favorite is benefit eyebrow gel, which can transform brows in seconds, especially if you have no time. Well, following the trends of spring-summer 2017, I make them as natural as possible. Let’s finally forget about graphic, well-defined eyebrows.
Secondly, expressive eyes! Here mascara from Kiko comes to my rescue (the brand appeared in our country quite recently, but has already won the trust of many girls). I love and appreciate it when mascara holds the bend well and makes my eyelashes fluffy. And in the spring-summer season, fashion houses and trendsetters offer to wear eyelashes like a twiggy or a doll, or even give up mascara altogether.
Third, the lips. Although in the upcoming season we are offered nude lips or red lipstick, but my favorite and musthave for all time are delicious dark shades and matte textures. There is such a variety of brands on the market now, but my heart was unconditionally won by lipsticks from Seventeen, you can also look at liquid matte lipsticks from Sephora and Smashbox. Considered in terms of trends, then you can add a “peppercorn” in the form of glitter on the lips to your evening look.

What will be fashionable this spring. Fashionable make-up 2017 is not limited to a couple of accents, so that every girl can choose something for herself: 1. Naturally healthy and well-groomed skin with a light glow effect, this effect is also called “wet skin”. It is advisable to reduce the amount of powder applied to a minimum, and it is better to exclude it altogether. 2. NUDE makeup – as close as possible to the natural effect. Cosmetics, their intensity should be minimal. 3. Smokey eye – classic and timelessly fashionable makeup. You can already see different variations of this makeup, and the color palette for Smokey eye has expanded significantly. 4. Bright shadows. The color palette is also not limited, but the most trendy color is blue, including colored arrows – in all their manifestations and various techniques of their application, they can be applied simultaneously to both the lower and upper eyelids. 5. An accent on the lips with lipsticks of red, wine and plum shades.
What should a girl try in the new season? Choosing your own blue shade for eye makeup, since the theory that blue eye makeup is suitable only for white-skinned blondes is already a myth. Eye makeup using the “metallic” effect, that is, use metallic shadows, but the most daring girls can try glitter in makeup.
Three must haves, in your opinion? A must-have in my Brow kit, a set of shaping wax, color fixing powder, tweezers and two applicators. It is convenient to make the desired shape of the eyebrow with plastic wax and fix it with matting color powder. An irreplaceable thing.
The second must-have is a highlighter. It can be anything: creamy, baked, liquid, but it should be. It is very convenient to use a highlighter in a palette, at the moment my favorite is Cleopatra`s Kiss Highlighting Palette from Sleek MakeUP – delicate texture, good pigmentation and high durability, you can mix different shades and get your desired shade today.
The third must-have: a matte long-lasting lipstick in red shades … my life jacket # 1038 Fired Up Matte Me will refresh your makeup and make it perfect! It is important to remember that all matte lipsticks dry out your lips. In order to comfortably wear matte lipsticks, your lips need extra care.
About myself. Even at school, I was fascinated by hairstyles. She loved to do styling, changing her hairstyles. And I realized that without a beautiful hairstyle, styling or a suitable haircut – nowhere!
What will be fashionable this spring. In styling and hairstyles, the rule is volume + negligence. If we talk about dyed hair, then ombre, balayazh, shatush techniques remain popular. Both natural shades and bright or muted pastel colors will be fashionable.
What should a girl try in the new season? If you have not yet tried on the image of the fatal diva or rebel, now is the time! Curls will never go out of style. Now the peak of their diversity – from classics to afro-textures.
Three must haves, in your opinion? My choice is this: 1. You definitely cannot do without fashionable and high-quality coloring. 2. Good haircuts and styling that will highlight your beauty. 3. Add light makeup and good mood to this. This is what every girl should have!
