It is her helping hand in any situation. Actually, it depends on the occasion, if you are going out apply two or three sparkling layers and if you are going into office or something like that, noblesse oblige – use as small sparkles as you can. Now, Heidi’s favorite is a pink lipstick with gold sparkles. It will be available to us only in November. This lipstick is almost invisible; it perfectly matches her pink lips, except…. It gives them some additional sparkling.

Heidi is a super model and a star of the television project, but according to her own words – she is fond of applying and creating make-up herself. In these minutes she feels herself like a person, which understood the essence of life.

She is so kind and gentle, beautiful and always willing to help! She is ready to share her main tips with us. So, while applying eye shadows and doing your make-up use the following technique: take eye shadows of one color but different tones, apply lighter eye shadow over the first part of a lid and to the rest of it apply darker eye shadow. It makes your eyes look bigger, wider and brighter.

Always remember about plum-colored eye makeup! And if you think that it will not suit you, stop pulling my leg! This kind of make-up emphasizes any face, any eyes. They become brighter and wider. It will never spoil your appearance!

Wear colors that can be used both for day and simply transferred into night colors. For example, instead of applying the darkest lipstick you have, use a  lighter version in the same tone. Make one layer in the morning and in the evening just add two more layers. You will look like a Queen!

Put your lipstick in layers instead of making one stroke! It will make your lips either fuller or sexier!

I am talking about Coco Chanel. Nowadays, it is enough to write her name everywhere you want in order to sale everything starting from tights or hairclips. Now, Karl Lagerfeld is in charge of her fashion house and one suit from Chanel costs more than 5,000 dollars. And the cost is not because a prestigious and famous name but first of all, because buying Chanel — you can be sure — your clothes will serve a long period of time — they aremostly hand-made and look gorgeous, elegant and trendy.

Gabrielle «Coco» Chanel (1883-1971). For she is a fashion idol! When I hear her name, to my mind comes a picture of attractive young woman in black suit with a string of pearls and in this wear she made a revolution in world's fashion! She created not only fashionable and immortal suits, ageless «little black dress» (that was introduced in 1926) and perfume Channel № 5, she made women believe that they can live their own lives, they can be independent and wear clothes according to their own preferences.

She left misery of her life and decided to conquer the world. And she did it! She opened her first shop in 1912 and explained to women that they can wear comfortable and at the same time elegant things, like: perfectly tailored suits and dresses, accessories, hats, she introduced jersey and short skirts in a common use, perfume and, of course, trousers, that used to be exclusively men's privilege. As a rule, Coco was wearing manlike clothes and had a boyish look. In 1922 she introduced her own fragrance Chanel № 5, since than her name became a common one!

Coco Chanel is a legend, her fame is immortal!

Her quotation:

«In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.»

Appearance of her nickname!

When she was only twenty years old, she sung songs in one cabaret and the most popular song was called Qui a vu Coco dans le Trocadero (Who saw Coco at the Trocadero?). People really liked it and they cried Coco! Coco! And it became her nickname. Actually, she didn't like it but, she could do nothing.
