Why Maybelline?

I’ve used the brand since I was in high school and have been using Maybelline products ever since. The products are super trendy and innovative. The most important thing is that they’re affordable and easy to use. Maybelline is a brand that believes every woman has their own style of beauty and needs to be confident to be able to achieve their dreams in life. I also believe in the same values. For me make-up is very important in women’s lives, as it can really express who we are, make us feel beautiful and more confident in realizing our dreams. I realize that the power of make-up and transformation can help us build that confidence.

What is the first Maybelline product you ever bought? Do you still use that particular product?

My first Maybelline product was Hypercurl Volume Express Mascara. I love how the product made my lashes look beautifully curled-up but still natural. I always bring it everywhere. It is a must-have item in my make-up pouch.

Do you wear makeup every day?

I can say that I am truly a make-up girl. I cannot live without make-up. I like to put on natural make-up on a daily basis. My go-tos are Maybelline White Superfresh Liquid Powder, Magnum Barbie Mascara and red lipstick from Maybelline Vivid Matte Liquid Lipstick No. 11. I apply makeup by myself when I’m off-duty because I love playing and expressing myself with my makeup-having more control of it is also a great practice.

What are your current faves?

My favorites at the moment are Maybelline Vivid Matte Liquid Lipstick No. 11 and Magnum Barbie Mascara.

Your skin looks amazing in every single photo. How do you take care of it? What products do you like to use?

For me the key […] is to use the right products that suits your skin. Always wash your face, drink lots of water, exercise and get enough sleep. Any kind of makeup look will be amazing with a base of healthy skin.

Any tips to share with us?

It’s important to know your facial characteristics, your skin color, as well as which occasions you need to be all dolled up for in order to decide what works best for you. Don’t be scared to play around with bold colors and defined brows, because they can transform your whole look.

I have been in the entertainment industry for 14 or 15 years now. I grew up with make-up, fashion and the glitz and glam of the camera. I learned many makeup tips and hacks by watching how makeup artists like Ryan Ogilvy did my makeup. I also experimented with makeup on my own and I always do makeup by myself on a daily basis.
