We asked the famous celebrity make-up artist Yuri Stolyarov what products are an absolute must-have for him. We are in a hurry to share!

Yuri Stolyarov

star makeup artist, official makeup artist of Maybelline New-York in Russia

I am convinced that there is nothing more beautiful than natural beauty, and the best makeup is the one that does not look too noticeable. Moreover, I believe that there are no flaws, there are only features that you need to be able to play correctly. In order to look great, you need proper care, the right tone and some mascara! My favorite remedies are below.

CARE

Pureheal's Ginseng Berry Eye Lift Patch

The patches under the eyes really work - the skin becomes more elastic, fine wrinkles are smoothed out, and even a concealer will be needed much less. Like any makeup artist, I'm just happy if I see a client who comes to me in patches - this is a responsible approach! (Laughs) For example, my friend Yulia Baranovskaya always comes to shoot in patches. I advise you to apply them every day - for example, while dyeing your eyelashes, or when driving to work.

I myself use and recommend to everyone the Korean patches Pureheal's Ginseng Berry Eye Lift Patch. Make it a good daily habit, and ideally they should be applied in the morning and evening.

Hydrogel mask Revital Snail Skin Perfect Hydro Gel Mask, Joycos

Another effective way to effectively moisturize your skin and prepare it for makeup is with a sheet or hydrogel mask. Many people are skeptical about them, but I am convinced that they work better than regular cream masks.

I advise you to use it 2-3 times a week, as well as before important exits when you need to look one hundred percent refreshed and rested. In this regard, I also prefer Korean products - for example, a mask based on snail mucus.

Vitamin C Firming Masque, Skinceuticals

Another great mask is with vitamin C, I myself regularly use it. Perfectly strengthens the skin, makes it elastic, evens out tone. And it looks very funny during the application process! The only thing is that it is better to be careful with vitamin C, because some people have severe allergies to it.

Clarisonic Mia 2 Cleansing Brush

A device that every girl should have. I believe that this brush can be used every day - it perfectly solves the problem of flaking, cleanses the pores and makes the skin smooth. Works in tandem with any gel or facial wash without absorbing particles.

Balm Cicaplast Baume B5, La Roche-Posay

In winter, I can safely recommend this revitalizing balm to absolutely everyone, regardless of age: even my 13-year-old daughter uses it. SOS-agent that will save the skin from frost, dryness, and prevent irritation. True, it is better to apply it all the same at night - the texture is so oily and dense that you will simply be uncomfortable during the day. By the way, it is also suitable for allergy sufferers.

Enzyme peeling Peeling Vegetal, Phytomer

An excellent universal peeling from the salon brand Phytomer, ideal for cleansing all skin types, even sensitive skin. After this exfoliation, you may not want to apply foundation at all, as the pores tighten, the skin becomes smoother, and the face looks rested.

Oxygen mask Triple Oxygen Instant Energizing Mask, Bliss

Foam mask - ideal for those occasions when you have an important event and you need flawless makeup. By the way, this tool is also very fond of Evelina Khromchenko, she taught me one "trick" - we apply the mask with a brush, in a thin layer. Then it foams on the face, tingles a little, and after a few minutes we simply remove the product with a tonic - and we do not wash with water! The effect is amazing, the skin becomes elastic, instantly toned, the pores tighten, you don't even have to powder - the mask reduces sebum production. True, this product cannot be used too often.

Concentrate 3 in 1 Lait-Crème Concentrè Nourishing, Embryolisse

Favorite tool of all makeup artists - here I will not be original. This versatile concentrate perfectly moisturizes, works as both a primer and a mask. You can use it before makeup or on your own.

Lip balm Baby Lips Dr. Rescue, Maybelline New-York

In winter, it is impossible to do without lip balm, my favorite - Baby Lips Dr. Rescue, Maybelline New-York - eliminates dryness, perfectly moisturizes. Apply it before going outside, if not using lipstick, or before lip makeup.

LEATHER

Long-lasting foundation Maybelline New-York Super Stay 24

A really long-lasting tone that's perfect for both filming and everyday life. The main thing is not to put it too tightly, and if it comes to natural makeup, dilute with primer or moisturizer.

Maybelline New-York Baby Skin Primer

Primer with excellent light texture, prepares the skin for make-up and makes the tone more transparent, elastic and natural.

Maybelline New-York Master Contour V-Shape Contouring Duo

I also recommend using creamy textures for light contouring. This stick is very convenient - we emphasize the cheekbones with the dark side, and the light side will replace the highlighter. Apply to the protruding parts of the face. Try using this pencil without foundation!

EYES

Mascara Lash Sensational, Maybelline New-York

My favorite mascara with a silicone curved brush is suitable for all types of lashes. She perfectly separates and creates the feeling that you have a lot of eyelashes! Especially if you paint over from all sides - I told you how to do it correctly.

Mascara Great Lash Blackest Black, Maybelline New-York

A legendary mascara loved by many makeup artists, you will definitely see it at fashion shows. What's the secret? It's just mascara. Often we need just such an effect - natural eyelashes, well colored, without excess volume and lengthening. For such purposes, there is nothing better than this classic remedy. By the way, you can buy different brushes and experiment with this mascara.

False eyelashes Romanovamakeup

I have repeatedly said that I do not consider myself a fan of false eyelashes, in principle, but some girls need them - for example, if their eyelashes are very short. Plus, there are times when you want maximum volume. If I use this technique, then I choose only eyelashes from Romanovamakeup - and I recommend them not because Olya and I are friends. She just really managed to make a high-quality product that many makeup artists use in Russia.

Cream eyeshadow Color Tattoo by Maybelline New-York

It's no secret that many makeup artists have these persistent creamy eyeshadows in their cases, and of course I also use them constantly in my work. I advise you to apply with your fingertips - the coating is very natural and durable. Additionally, some of the lighter shades of these eyeshadows can be used as a highlighter.
