What can we find in your makeup bag?

Base colour, as a foam, by Gemey-Maybelline, and expanding black mascara (errr expands your eyelashes, GC doesn't know how to say that in English xD)

What do you do first to make yourself up in the morning?

I wash my face with fresh water.

What is your favourite perfume?

"Angel", by Thierry Mugler.

Do you often go to the stylist?

Almost never. I take care of such things myself!

How do you do your hair?

After summer, I colour it lightly, because with repeated sun exposures, my hair gets lighter. And because its very dry, I take care of it by putting on a protective capillary mascara (again GC doesn't know how to say this in English, Im not familiar with girls things XD)

What do you like about yourself?

My eyes.

And What do you like the least?

My hands.

What is your favourite beauty product for the lips?

A moisturizing balm, lightly pearled, by Avene. I very rarely use gloss or lipstick, because I kiss my daughter a lot and I don't want her to look like an artists palette because of me! (laughs)

And for the face?

I like this brand a lot, because I have sensitive skin, particularly when its cold.

Which female celebrity do you admire the most for her body?

Marcia Cross, from the TV series "Desperate Housewives". She has the face and skin of a doll!

Do you pay attention to your hands?

Yes, but its not my priority. When they are dry, I put on cream.

And your nails?

I have the very bad habit of biting my nails, but one of my resolutions for 2008 was to free myself from this villanous habit. That said, I don't let them grow out too much. On the varnish side, I like dark colours, like Bordeaux.

Do you have a secret for staying slim?

None. I still eat as much. I was a lot heavier during my pregnancy - 22kg in total (48.5 lb)! - and if I have succeeded in getting a slim body back, now I pay closer attention to what I eat.

Have you already been on a diet?

One time. After childbirth, I kept to a protein diet, that my dietician recommended to me. It was more safe and serious.

What is your beauty secret?

I use only small amounts of makeup. I am certain that girls who abuse makeup damage their skin more. A bit of mascara and blsuh is enough for the day.

What does your favourite clothes look like?

My favourite set: a jean, T-Shirt, or a shirt, and ballet shoes. I tried to put on high heels, but I don't feel good with them, and they give me back pain.

What are your preferred accessories?

My Zadig &Voltaire watch never leaves my wrist. I even sleep with it! I also wear small bracelets.

Do you do sports?

I have done dance since I was 15, but, now, I don't do sports anymore. That say, I should go back to doing it, if not, I won't be up to speed physically during my tour. I will probably go to a sports coach.

What object do you take with you everywhere?

My Cellphone, for sure!

What do you think about comestic surgery?

If it is about surgery that repairs things, I am for it. On the other hand, American style lifts and Botox injections or other stuff, I am against it!
