Star Interview:

CCR: What are your expectations and plans for your future?
Gu Liya: The expectation for the future is to hope that the entire music scene will pick up. The plan is to work well and have both a career and a family. Because I have now turned from unmarried gorgeous to a married mother, as a mother, I have changed in my mind, state, and reception. Now that I'm much gentler, the momentum of the previous rush is starting to slow down. But I also hope that I don't give up my career when I have a family, so I hope that my family and career will not be wrong.
CCR: How do you keep yourself in good shape at your busy work?
Gu Liya: The way I stay well at my busy work is to take a deep breath. When I am nervous and anxious at some work, I will take a deep breath, and then think of my baby's smiling face, which will be like charging, full of strength. Everything should be optimistic and not too pessimistic.
CCR: What are your usual tips for applying makeup yourself? What are your preferences for makeup?
Gu Liya: My makeup skills are that whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, after I have gone through the normal skin care routine, I must apply sunscreen, but it must be a sunscreen with a certain brightening function, so that after applying, when I apply the cream or foundation, the skin will be bright and moist, and it will be better.
When you go out, you can do nothing, but lip oil or lipstick must be rubbed. I now find that as I get older, women's lips get drier and thinner, and the color gets darker, so we put on some lipstick to make the whole person's skin color rosy. The second step is to have to draw a little eyebrows, it is not recommended that you tattoo your eyebrows, because after tattooing your eyebrows, your eyebrows will be discolored, and your eyebrows will become very stiff after you tattoo, so you'd rather spend two or three minutes more, draw your eyebrows, and then use eyebrow dyeing cream after drawing your eyebrows. Because my hair is darker, my eyebrow thrush technique is to use a black eyebrow pencil first, and then use brown eyebrow cream to modify it, which will be softer.
I prefer that kind of convenient, natural, simple and generous makeup, I go out to make up my own makeup is lip oil, draw eyebrows, the third step can also play a little blush, and then at any time with a small bottle of toner, at any time to shoot water, you can make the skin always moist and moist.
CCR: How do you usually take care of your skin? Is there any secret? Winter is cold, is the skin care different from the past?
Gu Liya: My usual skin care is whether it is day or night, especially when removing makeup at night, be sure to use hot water, after washing the face, use a hot towel to cover the face and eyes, which can promote blood circulation and alleviate eye fatigue. That's how I used the time at night before going to bed to apply a hot towel to protect my skin.
Then my secret is in the rhythm of skin care, as long as I go out, I apply sunscreen, and I do not go out. In addition, I have a little secret that I will put the toner on my bedside table at any time, as long as I get up at night, go to the bathroom or do anything, I will always take the toner. Whether I'm wearing makeup or not, I always take a toner.
The difference between summer and winter in skin care is that I use toner and softener differently. I also use lotion in the summer, cream in the winter, and then I rub some coconut oil.
CCR: What cosmetics and skin care products do you usually like to use, is it convenient to share your makeup bag with you?
Gu Liya: In fact, I am quite supportive of domestic products, and I think domestic products will be more suitable for our Chinese skin. Many domestic skin care products are already very mature, I will buy some domestic vaseline, vitamin E, Dabao, baby cream, these moisturizers I will use. I prefer to use some skin care products from domestic brands, but prefer to use makeup from the top ten international brands.
My usual makeup steps when I go out are: after washing my face with anti-sensitive face soap or facial cleanser, apply toner to Dortrin, an American brand that mainly makes pure plant essential oils, rub essential oils after toner, then Ma Yinglong's eye bag eye cream, then Dottre's cream, then rub Vaseline, then pour a layer of toner, then Lancôme, a sunscreen with brightening effect, then a Japanese isolation cream, then CHANEL's pink blush, It will appear more natural red of the skin, and then use a little DIOR earth color eyeshadow, which can appear a little deeper, then brown mascara, and finally DIOR's thinnest color-changing lip glaze, as well as a domestic lipstick that is more popular.
