Dear girls, in this video I want to share with you my secrets how to save money, but look good at the same time.
Let's start with cosmetics. And here my advice is to buy most part of the cosmetics that is produced in your country.
There are some good produce in any country (even in Belarus). Sometimes this is not the whole line, but only a cream or tonic for face, for example.
I'm very glad that cosmetics and beauty products in Belarus have become much better in last 5 years.
I can recommend you some of them. Perhaps, this information will be useful for you, because Belarusian cosmetics are very cheap.
I like night cream "Expert". It nourishes skin perfectly. I usually use it in the autumn-winter period of time.
I also like the series "Perfect skin". There are many products in this series, but I have tried only three of them – tonic, scrub and mask.
And I like all of these three. Tonic is very pleasant for skin, it doesn't contain alcohol.
Scrub, the effect of salon dermabrasion, exfoliates dead skin cells perfectly. The mask reduces redness.
Mask with persimmon and argan oil really moisturizes skin.
Lip Balm "Apthecar" protects lips from the wind and moisturizes them.
Mascara "Luxury" with argan oil from "Belita" is also not bad. The only negative thing that it dries on your eyelashes for a long time.
Matte lipstick "Complimenti" is amazing! There are very lasting and very beautiful shades of the lipstick.
Night mask-filler will give shine to your skin.
The cream highlighter will also add shine. Your skin will look healthy and soigne with these products.
And how this cream highlighter and this night mask filler work together you can check in my video "Russian sounds Ы, Р, Л, Ч, Ш, Щ, Ъ. Difficult Russian words",
where I didn't use any concealer (I will leave the link to this video for you in the description).
As for peels, for which now is the right time, this year I didn't go to the salon, but bought a home peels and mask after peels, that are produced by "Bielita-Vitex".
I like this peel very much, I use it once a week. It helps me to remove black points. Here's how they look like.
I apply peel on my face and then use the mask. Sometimes I use light peel with lactic acid instead of these home peels. It's also very effective.
How I take care of my hair and eyebrows.
Sometimes I used to various hair masks in a beauty salon, but they are nothing compared to the power of oil.
Sometimes I apply shea butter or coconut oil on the tips of my hair. Once a week, usually on a Sunday, I apply warmed up oil in a water bath
or in a microwave on the tips of my hair and along the full length of hair. The main secret is the oil has to be warm.
This is the only way, the oil will work, and it will be useful. I usually use mix of oils.
I love olive, burdock, castor oils. And here I have the mix of burdock and castor oils.
By the way, it's believed that castor oil is also useful for eyebrows and eyelashes: it strengthens them, makes them darker and thicker.
You also probably have heard about usma oil. It promotes hair growth. I apply it on my eyebrows.
But at the moment I use the mix of castor oil, usma oil and nicotinic acid solution.
About haircuts and hair dyed.
I buy professional hair dye, but my mom dyes my hair, and I dye her hair. This is called barter (exchange) – quid pro quo.
I could not let my hair grow for a long time. My hair is thin and weak, but has lot of volume.
I have never needed to add volume. Moreover, I let my hair grow to avoid extra volume.
If I do a haircut "bob", my head will turn into a ball (like I call it).
I wanted to have straight hair for many years, and most of all fringe. It suits me very well.
Finally, tools for making hair straightening appears, also fixed fringes.
A few years ago I ordered a fringe from human-hair in a hairdressing salon. The fringe was fixed to the hair band. It cost extremely expensive.
I remember that I could buy a new winter boots for that price! Made of leather! But it's enjoyment to spend money on your dream! And I had enjoyed the fringe about a year.
I'm very sorry that I washed it, because I could not do it beautiful after that: that hair was completely different from mine – thick,
but completely without volume, that is, the opposite of mine, and I did not know how to do them well.
- Where is your fringe now, Tanya? – you can ask me. Answer: I don't know, I don't remember. Perhaps, I threw it away. But I think no, because it cost me lot of money.
In any case, I cannot find it and I'm not looking for it. My face shape changed, and I think, that now fringe doesn't suit me.
Two years ago, I straightened my hair for the first time, that deprived if of volume, and it looked awful.
I did it at a low price, at home of a master (although it was still expensive), and the master spoilt my hair.
My hair began to break off in the middle after six months. I was still lucky that they didn't break off at the roots.
So, I had to restore my hair with oils and wait it for growing back. I will not straighten hair anymore.
Now I use a hair dryer (an electric fan) and a large round brush for making my hair straighten.
It's easy for me to do that, because I don't begin to straighten it at the roots, but I straighten only the tips. If the hair is long, it straightens a little at the roots under it weight.
A haircut. I used to do a haircut during the new moon period for stimulation my hair to grow faster. But my hair was still spoiled on the tips, and the length was the same.
Then I moved to Central Africa, and there it's humid and hot, like you probably know.
And there I let my hair grow. My hair grew faster in Africa, but it was still spoiled on the tips.
There is a superstition in Eastern Europe, that it's bad to cut hair on your own – this attracts illness to you.
I'm not very superstitious, there are too much superstitions, and they hinder our life. But I will tell you about Russian superstitions in another video.
Now I cut my hair myself. I found a video on the Internet how to make a haircut yourself. I will leave you a link to this video in the description.
I bought professional scissors and voilà. The funniest thing is that my hair stopped to be bad on the tips after that
and became be better in quality. And the most important thing is that finally I could get the length that I had wanted to have.
Of course, mostly this is merit of oils. Or perhaps, I used the cervices of hairdressers with bad aura, and it harmed my hair. It's a joke.
This technique of a haircut will not work for you if you have very short hair or if you don't like a haircut with graduation.
How do I cut my hair? I fix wet hair with a rubber band on the top of my head, comb my ponytail and cut the tips off.
I do manicure myself. Perhaps, it's not important to have beautiful manicure in your country, and you don't care about it.
But the opinion exists in Eastern Europe that beautiful manicure is a "face" of the elegant woman.
I even tried to draw flowers and figures on my nails, when I had more free time and desire.
I also use some different products for making my nails strength. Now I have 3 products, and they are all Belarusian.
And I also use oil for a cuticle. Sometimes I make strengthening tub from salt or I lubricate my nail plate with iodine.
If you don't know why I do this, I'll tell you more about it. It's believed that sea salt strengthens our nails.
How to do a tub from salt? It's easy. Take a small bowl, pour warm water into it, add 1 tablespoon of salt
and dip your fingers into the bowl for 15-20 minutes. It's pleasant to watch some movie or video on y-tube during this procedure.
Iodine. It's believed that it helps to avoid split nails. I take a cotton swab, moisten it with iodine and wipe my nails with it.
It's better to do that in the evening, when you are sure that you don't need to go out. There will be a little iodine on the nails in the morning.
After that you can do a manicure or a tub from salt. It will remove marks of iodine.
Try to do with gloves the work about house. I don't urge you to wash the dishes with gloves, but if you wash clothes by hand, then do it with gloves.
Pedicure. I do a pedicure once a year in a barbershop. The rest of the time I use a special large file, which is called a "laser grater". And I paint the nails myself.
Extra body hair. I do sugaring. Sugar paste is cheap, and you can learn this technique if you really want to.
Of course, I was lucky, I had individual training: my friend-cosmetologist taught me.
There were all my advices for you. If you are agree with them and think that they are useful, give me a like!
Thank you for watching my video! I wish you to be beautiful without a damage of your pocket! Bye!
