Q:When did you know a career in beauty was cut out

for you? As a child, I had an artistic flair, and I was waiting

for the right moment to enter the world of beauty. After

school, I studied painting and sculpting, which was a great

foundation for my career. It helped me understand colours

and aesthetics. In 2006, I joined Dior and it’s been great

since then! Q: How can women find their perfect

foundation shade? When choosing a foundation, be sure to

match the colour of your face to your neck. Another tip is to

not use a lot of products in order to keep the transparency of

the colour intact. Be sure to check the shade under different

lights and mirrors, and apply in layers only on imperfect

areas. I find the Diorskin Forever Fluid Foundation to be

great because it’s not too heavy and also gives long-lasting

coverage. Q:Five makeup items no woman should leave

house without?Every woman has her key products that she

can’t leave the house without, but in general, I would say the

key ones are: foundation, blush, eyebrow pencil, mascara, and

lipsticks are very important for a complete look.Q: How

should a bride-to- be choose her makeup artist?Someone

who knows every angle of your face is far better than a famous

makeup artist who has never exhibited his/her talent on you.

Every bride must meet her makeup artist (as well as the hair

stylist) several times in advance in order to convey what she

really wants.Q:What are your favourite spring-summer

2016 beauty trends? I love the Dior Milky Dots summer

collection. It is so playful and fun! I am also a fan of bright

glossy lips especially after the dark and matte winter shades.■■
