Alexandra is a model, influencer, reality star and mother. We asked her to share her secret to looking good on the outside and feeling good on the inside, too. In this interview, she shared with us more about taking care of herself, as well as letting us in on some of her tricks for healthy looking hair and skin.
Hello Alex! We are glad to have the opportunity to talk about your daily life and beauty routine, as well as to share with us tricks that help our customers look and feel good. Let's start with you and your recent commitments. What's your secret to coping with a hectic everyday life?
- Hello and thank you for the invitation! It is my real pleasure to be the first person to "guest" the blog section of your site. I will gladly answer your questions, I hope to be useful to all yengescosmetics.com visitors. Lately, my daily life has been extremely busy, really. I often travel, I have work commitments, I try to make time for Gabriel, but also not to abandon taking care of myself as much as possible. I often joke that the 24-hour day is not enough for me and I always want to do new and new things (laughs).
We follow your profiles on social networks and we can't help but notice that despite your numerous commitments, you are always in great shape. What is this due to, how do you manage to balance?
- Thank you so much! That's a real compliment, I'm glad it looks that way from the side, but I don't always feel like I get the balance right. You know I don't take myself too seriously, I just really enjoy my work, despite the high workload. I believe this is also one of the secrets to not "overheating" and not feeling exhausted, but rather tired, but in a more pleasant and satisfying way. And regarding my figure - I have shared before that I often do deloading days several times a year, in different forms. During the periods suitable for this, I follow a grain regime or a lunar diet, during which I drink only water and tea with lemon, for a period of 24 hours. Thanks to them, I manage to relieve myself and cleanse my body of toxins. Of course, after these periods, I gradually feed the body in the following days, so as not to achieve the opposite effect. I also take nutritional supplements to compensate for the not always so varied and regular diet.
Thank you for your sincere answer and the experience you share with us! We fully agree that one should like one's work in order not to feel exhausted by it. And you can see from afar that you do everything willingly. We suggest you continue on the beauty theme, we assume that this will be interesting for our customers and for everyone who reads the blog section on the site. Would you mind sharing how you keep your hair looking really healthy and shiny and we remember you having issues with it until recently?
- Yes, I have been trying to stop my hair loss and breakage for quite a long time. She looked tired and lifeless due to many factors, but now I can see a big improvement too. I suspect that one of the main reasons for the improvement in her appearance is the reduction in stress. Indeed, it affects not only the way we feel, but also our appearance and physical level. Also, on the advice of my hairstylist, who I've been going to for years, I stopped coloring my hair to minimize the damage it was getting from the dye anyway. I gave it time to regain its former state again, with the help of proper care and products that really meet the needs of my hair. I believe that taking supplements also contributed to her overall "revival" to some extent.
And your skin? Do you have favorite products that are present in your daily routine? Does professional makeup for photo shoots and special events manage to affect her overall condition?
- To be honest, I often try different products, I receive PR shipments from the brands or I want to test some praised products on the market myself, which I know are not particularly good for the skin. However, it needs to adapt to the products we use in order to be able to see the maximum result from them in the long term. However, I have some favorites that are always present in my dressing table and in my travel bag. One of them is my favorite serum with hyaluronic acid Magic Drops , which is preferred by all your customers - I have shared about it more than once and I always recommend it to my friends and acquaintances if they need a similar type of product. I don't fail to include an eye cream, a hydrating one for the whole face and a mandatory cream with a sun protection factor. I've been testing the samples of the products you're about to launch very soon, the nutrifEYE and the sunscreen, and they're great (winks at us). They are sure to perfectly complement the products I use on a daily basis. Regarding the condition of my skin during intensive periods, especially after professional make-up, I feel my skin is tighter and when I have time I make different masks at home or visit specialists to help me fight the lack of sufficient hydration, fatigue and the gray complexion. Usually, on any free day when I don't have an important meeting or a photo shoot, I go for very light makeup to compensate for the busier periods.
Another comprehensive answer! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your time and we are happy that you like our products so much. We've covered all the skin care essentials, we hope to have such pleasant conversational occasions again!
