Beauty regimen of Prakti founder Pritika Swarup

In the morning, I wash my face with DeviDetox cleanser – which Prakti, my beauty brand, launches in February – then use a hyaluronic acid serum for darker skin from Dr. Barbara Sturm. If I have an event to prepare, I will exfoliate with our PritiPolish; it makes me feel mentally alert. My skin is dry but can be oily and Biologique Recherche Dermopurifying Cream helps to balance it. If I want that “no makeup” look, I start with Le Gel Sourcils Longwear Eyebrow Gel by Chanel, then Giorgio Armani’s Luminous Silk Foundation – you can still see your freckles underneath, which I like. good. Tom Ford creates a Shade and Illuminate palette that totally changes your face and gives it definition. Sometimes, as an eye shadow, I use Laura Mercier Candle Glow Sheer Perfecting Powder and a little bit of Chanel Les Chains Illuminating Blush to add dimension. I use Chanel Le Volume Stretch mascara and brown pencil for my upper waterline and blend it so it looks natural. On my lips, there’s Summer Fridays Lip Balm or, if I want a color, Chanel’s Le Rouge Duo Ultra Tenue, which isn’t too pink and goes well with my skin. For the perfume, I alternate between two of Frederic Malle, Eau de Magnolia and Iris Poudre. My hair is really straight; Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray gives it a lively appearance. At night, if my skin is stressed out from all the makeup, I will use a CeraVe Renovating Facial Cleanser, which cleanses my skin of all the little breakouts but is very gentle. Going through my emails before bed I’ll put on our MahaMask, which comes out in November, or I’ll make my own: one with turmeric, chickpea flour, lemon, honey and yogurt, and another with ground orange zest, glycerin and honey. These are recipes that I have been making for years with my mother, who studied Ayurveda. And because I carry a lot of tension in my shoulders, I get massages at the Exhale Spa on Central Park South in New York City every two weeks; it is both a mental and a physical thing.


For five years now, Israeli chef Ben Zviel and his British partner, Samina Raza, have been raising the culinary profile of Berlin’s trendy Prenzlauerberg district with comfort food with Asian accents at their restaurant Mrs Robinson’s. Recently, they opened a sister establishment around the corner, the all-day Café Frieda bistro, which the couple saw as the kind of intimate enclave they would be tempted to spend their days off. To that end, they created a warm and bright space with terracotta floors and potted plants, an open kitchen with a curved oak bar and a custom sound system – to better showcase their voluminous vinyl record collection. The menu changes throughout the day, with fried eggs with fresh truffle and shio koji butter for breakfast, Rockefeller oysters for lunch and, as part of the dinner menu that kicks off the next day. next week, a suckling pig with clams. In a chockablock district with cozy restaurants, the welcoming atmosphere of Café Frieda – and the homemade sourdough – has nevertheless already won over a devoted audience. Raza says, “Our regulars always tell us that hanging out at Café Frieda feels like you’re on vacation. cafefrieda.de.

The friendship between artists Bruce Conner and Jay DeFeo has taken on an almost mythical status in the art world.
