Yulya Zalesskaya
When did your interest in makeup begin?
As a child I wanted to remember the face of every stranger I saw in my life. Also I had this idea that I wanted to be a plastic surgeon. When I was 12 I did my own makeup with my mom’s cosmetics and I was like holy shit I want to dissolve in the mirror. I thought that I found something as cool as my favorite pencils for drawing on paper.
How did your career in makeup start?
I did kind of “unwearable” makeup on myself and posted it on social media. People started to ask me to work with them on photo shoots.
If you could only use one beauty product what would it be?
Lipstick. Eyes, cheeks and lips will be done.
Whats the best advice you’ve ever been given?
If you can’t get what you want, you have hidden benefits in your current situation.
Describe your perfect day.
It could even be a typical day but I should be living it with the same open mind and heart as If I was 6 years old again. In this case no matter what I would do that day - even boring circumstances will perceived like special.
