Olga Charandaeva
Independent makeup artist
“Like any makeup artist, I test a lot of products. But there are those that I acquire over and over again. For me, the priority is durability, the most natural effect and the comfort of application."
Eyeliner Primatif, Basic Black, Kevyn Aucoin
The soft lead glides smoothly over the eyelid. I love its versatility: with it you can make both a graphic clear arrow and a shaded one. Persistent: Does not leak from spotlights during filming.
Price: 3 536 rub.
The sculpting powder The Sculpting Powder, Kevyn Aucoin
The sculptor has three shades - Medium, Light, Deep. The latter is very dark - I rarely use it, but when shooting with it, deep face correction is obtained. Many people use such powders only on the cheekbones, but this one is good for correcting the entire face - it can be applied on the eyes, on the neck, on the nose, and on the chin. Most often I choose the shade Medium - it has no red pigment, so the result looks natural.
Price: 5 984 rub.
Eyeshadow Artistique Eyeshadow, Marron, Suratt
One of the tools that I always bring from my trips: the brand has not yet been presented in Moscow. Eyeshadows with a silky texture are perfectly shaded and easily layered on top of each other - that's what I love. Lasts up to 6-7 hours.
Price: 20 $
Lip Pencil The Flesh Tone Lip Pencil, Medium, Kevyn Acoin
Adore! I outline the contour with a soft lead, and then apply the balm: the effect of natural plump lips is ensured thanks to the beige-brown shade. Very persistent.
Price: 3 400 rub.
Blush Orgasm, Nars
I love both dry and cream sticks (the latter for a more natural effect). This Orgasm shade has the right combination of rose gold - the blush turns out to be natural, without red spots and streaks. Apply dry with a large fluffy brush.
Mascara Make Up Sexy Eyebrow Mascara, Blond and Taupe, Romanovamakeup
Best-seller! An irreplaceable thing in everyday make-up: a handy small brush colors every hair, fixes eyebrows and makes them more expressive. The result is natural. If you have naturally thick hair, use without a pencil.
Price: 970 rub.
Pencil for eyebrows Brow Sculpter, Taupe, Tom Ford
During my work, I often introduce my clients to this tool, and they will definitely buy it before our next meeting. A very correct brownish shade Taupe - perfectly fills in the gaps and gives the brow a shape that looks natural. During dyeing, the hairs are simultaneously laid - in the wax composition. Unscrews: made in the form of a liner.
Lipsticks Matte Lipstick, MAC
If I need a velvety finish on my lips, I choose these lipsticks. They are the best: shades from nude to wine, for every taste and color. The shade is the same saturated as in the stick: the products are highly pigmented.
Price: 1 480 rub.
