Well, This Is One Way To Wash Your Face...
We barely recognized MTV Trendy hostAnita Bhoumikwhile strolling through Union Square last week. The VJ, who was in town from Moscow visiting her dad, looked incognito inbarely-there makeup, a fedora and a herringbone winter coat.
"People on the street aredressed more casually here-- it's about comfort. People look good but they think of comfort first," Bhoumik said. "In Moscow, people go to the bakery or take their garbage out with eight-inch heels and makeup on like they're going to a ball or something. In New York, people are relaxed, they are dressing comfortably. I have to find a balance when I visit -- my heels aren't as high and I wear less makeup. And I do feel more comfortable."
With her gorgeous face not so covered up, we had to find out herskincare secrets. She uses a "recipe" that her father passed on to her. "He does this and his skin looks so good, and he is much older than me," said Bhoumik.
She explained, "To open the pores, I put my face under a towel and over hot water for a couple minutes. But be careful [that] it's not too hot to burn you. Then follow bywashing your face. The effect is much better than just washing your face because all of your pores are open for cleansing." Guess we'll be doing things differently tonight.
