Chillax Like Russian Bombshell Irina Shayk

Irina Shayk knows a thing or two about playing the part of a Russian bombshell. No wonder Bradley Cooper’s smitten. Ever since 2007, when she appeared in the annual Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, she’s enjoyed a fast rise to modeling’s highest ranks. Here, the 30-year-old shared her take on beauty, wellness, and that ugly thing called puffiness. And: she’s no dummy. She’ll have you know she enjoys her baths with a little Dostoevsky on the side.

Never leave the house without: Céline sunglasses.

Beauty from the inside out: An organic protein shake.

Exercise regime: Jujitsu with Mike Medrano! Pilates with Andrea Mitchell at Rinaldi Pilates.

Snack of choice: Dry mango, or Kefir.

Beauty essentials: L’Oréal Paris Youth Code Day & Night Cream is my fave. It’s great for all skin types. I apply L’Oréal Paris Extraordinary Hair Oil for every night for my dry hair.

Skincare ritual: Use coconut oil; it is one of the best moisturizers. Use it right after the shower on wet skin and then wipe it off with a towel.

In-tub must-read: Fyodor Dostoevsky’s The Idiot.

Spa-cation at: Spa88, the Russian baths at 88 Fulton St. Or Juvenex Spa (in Koreatown) for the best Korean scrub.

Always in your suitcase: Sun block, swimsuits, face massager for face drainage when I travel, L’Oréal Paris Rouge Lipstick for a night look.

Best advice from mom: In the morning, I always use a cube of ice on my face — it gives me a natural lift. Stay away from the sun and remember the skin on a woman’s neck, hands and face is sensitive and ages easily, so apply a high SPF sunscreen on those areas.

Anything else: Don’t forget to eat a lot of greens and fish oil pills. Those are two of the best things to keep your skin glowing.
