Beauty

If there is one series I was already looking forward to 24 hours in advance, it was ‘Adultery’. I even watched the last episode from my iPad in Australia, and it took me a messy two hours due to the slow internet. One of the pleasures of the series was the looks of Sylvia Hoeks. That skin. That hair. That figure. Everything, I want to know everything to even come close to looking like that.

Morning ritual

“I always step into the shower first. Then I am really awake. After that, I clean my face with Embryolisse Micellar Lotion. I apply the Anti-age Redensifying serum from the same brand to my face and neck in circular motions. To finish, I apply the Embryoderme cream and the Redensifying eye-lip contours around my eyes and lips. I use the entire line of Embryolisse because it really does something for my skin. It is a cream that makes my skin feel firmer and keeps the moisture in the skin at a good level. Ideal.”

Eyebrows or lashes

“I keep my eyebrows a bit in shape with tweezers. Other than that, everything is actually pure nature.”

Red carpet essential

“High heels, a beautiful skin, and good hair. Important to shine all evening long.".

Unexpected beauty tool

“For me, that is a visit to the best hairdresser in the Netherlands: Carlsson Culture (in Amsterdam South). They dye and cut my hair as if I was born with a beautiful mane. While that is not the case. After a haircut, it looks very natural and beautiful. The perfect combination.”

Most recent beauty purchase

“A pair of jeans from Denham; the ‘ELLE drop skinny’ that I never want to take off again. A very nice skinny jeans that fits too well.” 

Favorite nail polish

“I almost never wear nail polish because it is not very practical for my work. Often, they change the color in makeup for the character, because it just doesn't fit the character. Also, I might be a bit too much of a boy for nail polish sometimes. I can paint my nails with a lot of attention, but then I ruin it five minutes later because I impatiently put on my skinny jeans or take something out of my pocket. So I don't think about it enough.”

Favorite perfume

“I love the Chance by Chanel. Nice fresh and lightly sweet.”

Never leave home without

“A protective factor on my face. Factor 30. Of course, again from my favorite brand Embryolisse.”

Don't tell anyone but…

“I think I have tried all the creams in the world. There are still many unopened jars that I now give away as gifts to friends and sisters. But now I have peace. The search is over. The journey was fun and slightly addictive, but Embryolisse is the winner. Actually, no more dry spots, bumps, or skin allergies. And not expensive. Quite nice.”
