“I grew up in a town of 100 people in rural ohio – The Near Mall was an hour away – but when i was 13 my dad won a trip to new york City. Ride Ride Weed, Weed Ride From The Time Weed Ride Weed, From The Moment Weed Ride Weed, From The Moment Weed Ride From The Time Toky, From The Moment Weed Travel from the moment.
At the end of the day, I am a model, but it is important for me to continue saying that I am a curve model to emphasize that we are still in the industry and representing curvilinear women. I never saw that growing. I just remember looking in Google curved models to see girls who looked like me, but I could never find any. And by the way, I don’t care that Bee calls ‘big size’. I have always been strong and thick. When I came to New York, an agent asked me about my ‘weight gain history’ and that really threw me because it always loses this size, and it is so for many women. There is not necessarily something that “has happened.” We are women. We are curves. That’s all. So how did I get here? Well, I just were born. [Laughs]
I had to take good to take care of my skin since I am on the set. That means that I do not use many active or really intense ingredients because I have eczema and psoriasis, and my skin can explode quite easily. That said, one of the best parts about being a model is that I can try all kinds of products. All black makeup artists of different things, and somewhere in the way I heard about the Cycaplast balm of La Roche-Posay. The game has changed me. It is very thick and moisturizing, so I cover it during the night when my skin is unhappy, and in the morning, the texture of my skin is much better.
I always return to the micellar water of Bioderma to take away my makeup, never leave a movie. However, the makeup remover of my eye: the lancôme-facil bi-facil is a bit oily. It is what I grab when I use heavy -eyed makeup at work, but it is gentle at the same time. The Osea Ocean cleaner is also really gentle, and smells very well.
My aestheticist: I see Gosia in Williamsburg Beauty Spa every two months or so – reduced that use the living biojuve serum once a week has live probiotics, which are useful with the rosacea. I do it with activating failures, which is supposed to ‘active’ the serum. And Weleda Skin Food Light is my moisturizing cream throughout the year. It always leaves me with a beautiful base for makeup.
I will be honest: I don’t use sunscreen every day. It has cost me a lot to find one that does not break me. But if I know that I will be outside for more than 20 minutes, I like Supergoop! Every Every Face SPF 50. I love it is very watery and continue without problems.
When it comes to body cleaners, I recently discovered the xeracalm ads cleaning oil from Avène. I feel that many body washes leave your skin dry, but this is not undressing at all. And I use the Eucerin Eczema relief cream every morning and night, but without special when I have a photo shoot. Leave this really beautiful brightness in my skin, but it doesn’t make me brilliant either. Ah, and Aquaphor’s healing ointment? I use it in everything: on my lips, in my hands, in my elbows. Sometimes I use a little for a slug if my face is super dry.
By the way, I self andgo every two weeks, maybe a little more frequently in the winter, typically shooting summer campaigns of what I need to have some color in me. I am already a professional in a tan. My favorite is St. Tropez Self so express Bronzing Mousse. It fades so gradually, it’s great.
As for the tools, I love my certainty. I use it to prepare for shoots. It has so many attachments, but my favorite is the cold ring. I use a lot of ice on my face, sometimes, I will immerse my head in a bowl of water with a lot of ice, but if I have enough time, I will grab the teraface or my chop sticks. Theraface also has a hot ring that feels so good in my masseteros, which tend to contain a lot of tension. And I love the Red Mask of the Omnilux contour. I try to use it for 10 minutes every night and help a lot with my rosacea. Even if I have Windburn, if I use it before going to bed, it has gone the next day.
On a normal day, I don’t use makeup. I like to let my skin breathe and rest all the makeup at work. If I use something on a day off, I curved my eyelashes and apply the lip brightness and ride. But I only use a tube rímel because I fight with Mapache’s eyes. The first time I discovered it, I literally wanted to cry because I used to wear a concealer and makeup towels with me every day. Caliray and NO7 are excellent. Caliray becomes a little thicker, so I use it for more than glamor, while NO7 is better for foundations because it is less dramatic. It also helps you dye your eyelashes every two weeks. I never thought I would do that myself, but then I had a makeup artist who told me that it was really easy and that I was right. It also takes five minutes. And Fenty Beauty makes my favorite shine, the bright bomb in Fu $$ and. The tone is not so far from the real color of my lip, and never because I will move away too much. Ah, and for a little extra touch because I have not defined lip lines, I love Mac’s Line Shooting. It is a classic of the 90s.
If I have a little more makeup for a casting, I go for Nars’s soft matte corrector. It combines very well and gives me good coverage. I have a couple of different tones because I like to mix them so that it really coincides with my skin. Then I use the nars lagoon tan cream in Lagoon 02 In my eyelids. I collected this from another makeup artist: if your eyelid is a bit darker than your low eye, it seems that you have no dark circles. The tails of my eyebrows do not grow as thick as I would like, so full with the Kosas Brow Pop Nano pencil Medium Brown. Then I make a little touch of Merit’s Highlightter in Bouncealso. It is a bit pink and not too bright. For Rubor, I love Nudestix rush stick BackA fresh nude that looks so, so natural to me. And I like to deposit all my products and lipsticks in your containers. It is much more important to travel or go to castings with two containers that are narrower than index cards that pack a lot of bottles.
On the front of the hair, I go to David Bullen in Pearlita to obtain cuts. But I don’t live it, Haremore. I went through a phase in high school where I dyed the lower half of my head in every child of color: the lower part was mom saying ‘yes’ to dye it and the upper part was to make my dad happy. But pink, blue, purple … whatever, I had it. That was enough for a lifetime. [Laughs]
I wash my hair almost every day, but if it were on the set all the time, I would wash it twice a week. I love the shampoo and conditioner of the Pacific Salty Wave. They are my secret finding. A bottle of each one costs only $ 10. They have no sulfates or parabens, but the shampoo still covers, which is important for me because I don’t feel that the hairdresser really washed. And salinity gives my hair a good shape and volume. For style, Redken’s Max Hold is the best. I love the nozzle because it is sprayed in a triangular fog, so it is not too aggressive. And the extremes of my hair really love the herbal spite oil. It smells like almonds, what honestly is probably what really catches me.
In the front of the fragrance I love citrus, musk but bright. Finally because something that combines well with my skin and does not stand out too much. Recently I discovered Lunamaris of Diptyque. It is supposed to remember you in the moonlight, it is inspired by the moon reflecting on the ocean, and I suppose so. It has pink pepper, incense and rock grains. I am quite conservative in spending, but it was worth the waste. The same goes for Cinquanta de Santa Maria Novella. I bought it in Florence last November. It is to be a mixture of Japanese and Italian culture, so it has Bergamot, Grapefruit and Orange Blossom as a wink to Florence and Green Tea a wink to Kyoto. I found the brand through Tiktok actually, everyone published them in Florence, and it was my first real introduction to the high -end fragrance. Is it madness that they have legs around 1221. 804 years? That is crazy. “
