Spa Week Daily: What time did you start today?
Shanina: I started at 10:30 AM for hair and makeup. At the moment it was very busy for all models, of course it’s fashion week so I’ve had a lot of castings and running around with fittings to go to and my day doesn’t end after this actually.
SWD:What did you eat this morning?
Shanina: I’m a little naughty. I didn’t eat this morning. I had water. When I’m home and I have time after this I need to eat because it’s important to keep your energy up.
SWD: Is there a certain time of night that you stop eating on a normal basis?
Shanina: For myself I’m a bit of health freak. Usually after 4 o’clock when it slows down and its not good to have a lot of heavy stuff after that time. Probably the latest would be about 8 and don’t eat two hours before you go to bed.
SWD: Do you work out often? Do yoga?
Shanina: I like to do Pilates. I don’t like yoga. I don’t know why. I like Pilates because of the core work and I jump rope for a half and hour when I can.
SWD: How many times a day do you wash your face?
Shanina: I think it’s always important to take your makeup off. After shows you should always try to take your makeup off just to air your skin out. At night I always wash off my makeup and cleanse, tone and moisturize. At the moment in the winter it’s very important to moisturize your face.
SWD: Do you ever get zits?
Shanina: Everyone get zits. All models get them. There are certain times when you do get them, but you can always look after your skin with a lot of water. It really keeps your skin looking healthy and fresh.
SWD: When was the last time you’ve been to a spa?
Shanina: I’ve never been to a spa actually. I’ve never had a facial done before. I have all these products at home that I use. (Never?? That’s what WE call naughty!)
SWD: When was the last time you took a relaxing bubble bath?
Shanina: I have a really big bath at home but I never use it. I like really hot showers and I use products to exfoliate my body. That’s when I’m really relaxed. It’s like my pampering day.
