Nino wears her Créme Crayon in shade Tulum.
KS: Hi Nino, can you please tell us a bit about yourself?
Nino: Hello, my name is Nino, also known as: Aesthebird, on Instagram. I'm a 22 year old girl who finds joy in creating beauty content. I love to share my finds with my followers and discuss beauty and self-care with them. I’ve been creating content since high school, now that I’m a college student I do have a lot of stuff to do, however I always find time to create and share photos, videos and more. It's a very relaxing process for me.
The Everything in shades Split & Maldives.
KS: We love summer and recharging energy during this time. What are some ways in which you recharge and take care of yourself?
Nino: I love summer too! I’m a morning person so it is my favorite thing to get up early in the morning and sit in my garden with a good book and a cup of strong black coffee. It’s only me, the birds, and the worlds inside my books. It is truly therapeutic so whenever I feel anxious and need some recharging to continue with my daily routine or schoolwork I try this.
One of Nino's picks, her Créme Crayon in shade: Martinique.
KS: Our product The Everything is available in four shades named after beach destinations across the world: Santorini, Split, Maldives, and Sardinia. Which of these summer destinations would you like to visit and which shade of TE would you take with you?
Nino: What pretty names and places! I would actually like to visit the Maldives with my favorite blush in shade, Split, which is such a unique shade of pink and looks amazing on my skin. I would also take Sardinia, a perfect golden cream bronzer, so I can keep the glow on my face always.
Nino wears The Everything in Split on cheeks, Maldives on nose and her Créme Crayon in Tulum on lips.
KS: Which is your go-to makeup and outfit for summer? What do they look like?
Nino: I love white and neutral shades in my outfits, so I feel like summer is the perfect time for me to express my style. I love to wear white canvas pants with a white shirt and a tote bag. For accessories I usually do gold earrings and rings with sunglasses of course. My summer makeup is all about glowy vibes. So I usually go for a lot of cream blush and creamy highlighters to keep the glow on specific areas of my face. Finally I can’t forget to set powder on my T-zone to avoid unwanted shine.
KS: Which traditional summer activities are you most looking forward to doing this season?
Nino: I love that during this season is when I have time to leave the city for several days and enjoy nature the most. I love swimming and can’t wait to swim all summer long in nature. I am also so excited to visit the countryside and live out my cottagecore dreams; just laying on the grass, and watching the stars.
