„DS“ in French makes a „jeu de mots“ (play on words) means Goddess and what she does is, in fact, making people more beautiful, happier. Where does she come from? From Pará. Exuberant place, full of flavors, colours sunny, very sunny.

How did she end up in Europe? First, she traveled around Brazil. Her adoptive father used to work traveling and her family and her followed him. It was good to know Brazil, but not only. They also travel abroad around the world. And among all those places is French Guiana.

A time that would be remarkable in two ways: learning French and seeing another reality, but also a terrifying moment because when she was only 15 years old her dear mother passed away. From the initial dream about becoming a sheriff since studying law was a desire to do things with order, willpower, and not being afraid to be rigid and bossy, as she says. She arrived in Germany and wanted to study, but at her age and with the difficulties of the region, she did not have many options. She tried to enroll in a makeup course, but the gentleman who was receiving the enrollment put many obstacles: it would not be easy, it had many subjects... it was like a cold shower, really cold.

But instead of just lamenting, she took care of herself. One day she went to a manicure, to have her nails done, and there she met some friends -the ones that everyone should have. They encouraged her to try to do the training course in France, since she could speak French and there would be more options.

And so the new life began. What was suppossed to be just a one-week test, it became a-twoyear living in Paris and a new career ahead. DS - Debybinharmakeupartist is the name of her company - Debora de Souza Deneckeshe doesn’t have a fixed point, she goes to “Mobilemakeupartist“ customers. She has been to France, Austria, Germany, Holland, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and also Brazil.

She was part of the team at Rio Carnival twice, this year with Unidos do Viradouro being the official Godmother of makeup bringing products from the great German brand Kryolan and they reached the second place in the twotime fashion show, and won the award for Best Makeup Artist, it proves that her work is getting strongly in the samba capital. It was an opportunity to exhibit her work on display and in a place that is a showcase for the world. In her work she also wears the T-shirts she created, the lipstick to add color, to brighten her smile. More than advertising people love the company logo: a kiss. ����

But, she is not content with just doing her makeup every day, she also graduated in Make-Up Professional Filmmaking, she is always improving and moving forward. I asked her if she had a brand of preference, she says she really likes: “Kryolan Deutschland” a brand from Germany.

In this conversation with a professional in the make up area, those famous tips that we always love to learn could not be missing, and here they go:

In her case, she can‘t miss: Lipstick, pencil, primer (base) 5 brushes Kit Brushes: Some brushes are essential and you will feel a lot of difference when applying make up. The most basic ones are: Blush Brush, Powder Brush, Base Brush, Brow Brush and a translucent or compact powder to seal the skin.

Before going to make-up, it is very important to prepare your skin. Wash your face well with a soap suitable for your needs and, if you go out during the day, don‘t forget the sunscreen. Ah! Don‘t forget: hydration is the key to achieve a natural look when applying make up.

„Nude, red“ No kit is complete without the basic lip colors, these two shades are universally flattering and versatile! Having a gloss in your kit is also really cool to finish the lipstick with a touch of the moment‘s glow.

What about the linguettes on the market for The answer was quick: For a start, it is good, but it doesn’t do without: What is important to me when it comes to having a super “makeup kit ��“, is to have products that clean, moisturize, and protect your skin. Having a cleanser, toner and a good face cream suitable for each type of skin are essential to maintain the health of your skin. The sunscreen is also super indispensable, regardless of whether or not you have makeup on.

And at the end of the conversation I asked about her plans for the end of the year. She told me that she won a prize as a makeup artist in Paris, France and to close the year in great pomp, she goes to Rio de Janeiro for an exhibition of make-up human works of art - in honor of Rio‘s carnival. Models are going to wear the exclusive DS’s makeup (Debybinharmakeupartist).

Success is guaranteed and we will have much more out there.
