How you became pale? I remember your old photos, you are not naturally pale.

I'm not that pale, although my natural (not sun tanned skin) is rather light for my nationality. I still have a golden undertone to my skin, which often shows in photos. Although my mother's side is Azerbaijani, so I got her lighter skin while my father has darker skin.
In my old photos I was very tanned, because I used to not care at all about sun protection. For around 3 years now, I really try not to stay under the sun for long, and when I am, I use lots of sunscreen. I'm not a fan of burning my skin and risking cancer to change my skin tone. :P

Did you have any other pets before Lunaria?

I had a gerbil, and then a teddybear hamster and a cat (that was super aggressive so we had to give her to a family who knew how to take care of her better than us) before Lunaria. This was around 2005.
And when I was very little, I had a yellow duck, a few street cats, and lots of chicks. During different times, though. Haha I may have been around 5 or 6.

In one of your tweets you said you started watching Dexter. Now I must ask; did you like how it ended ?

***DEXTER SPOILER ALERT***
It was disappointing. I wish the show ended when the girl and the little boy were walking away... but then they had to add in that Dexter is in fact working as a lumberjack somewhere and hiding. It would have created more drama and emotions if we let go of the show thinking that he is dead. They took away the possibility of us letting go of the show on a dramatic, sad note. It became a bit lame because of that. :(

Do you smoke or have you ever smoked cigarettes or anything else (cigars, weed, e-cig, hookah etc.)?

I don't smoke anything, no. I have smoked hookah in the past as it is a family/gathering tradition where I come from. I'm generally concerned about my health as a dancer and a person who loves to sing. I need my lungs for both of those things.
I just vape, nicotine free. Pure VG (Vegetable Glycerin).

Do you have time to watch any TV series ? If yes, which one(s) ? :) Have a great day.

I do! I watch as I edit photos and such.
I'm currently watching Grey's Anatomy (I know, so old). I'm thinking of re-watching Breaking Bad and Prison Break. I don't think I'm ready to move to the epicness that is Game of Thrones just yet. It requires focus that I cannot give at the moment. :P

Do you think Yoga helps with bellydancing? or some kind of back exercises, postures, aerobics? Is Yoga a part of bellydancing? Which exercises would you recommend? I'm absolutely new to bellydancing, I learn by myself...I don't want to break my back or something, please advise me, gorgeous Mahafsoun

Yoga absolutely helps. I recommend yoga and any cardio exercise. And of course, always be sure to stretch well before dancing. It will not only make a great difference in how your performance looks, but also how you feel while dancing.

Which foundation is the best for you? Your skin is so pale *_*

I use the Tarte foundation in Light, and under it I use the Smashbox (with SPF 15) primer.

What's the best advice you can give regarding beauty tips, whether it's some make up tricks or using natural methods to enhance beauty?

Honestly, the best advice I've ever received: Remove your makeup before you sleep.
Let your skin breathe as much as you can. It's a very basic rule, but it makes the biggest difference in the health, quality and appearance of your skin.

Hey there (: Just watched some of your older videos... In one you said, that after two years you quit your bellydance school and moved on yourself - so my question is: did you find help from your mom, friends, youtube videos etc. to go on and develope your style? Were were movements left to learn?

I never really attended any proper class. I tried one class that consisted of going to the same class two or three times a week, doing the exact same moves and the exact same steps over and over for some reason. I decided that it was not for me. I don't mean all classes, but those kinds of classes.
Since back then I was not able to find a teacher that inspired me to learn the style of bellydance that I liked, I decided to teach myself from scratch. And to try and create new things...
I also watched great bellydancers such as Zoe Jakes. I also tried to learn from their moves and incorporate their movements with my own to create different movements, with different emotions to match the songs that I danced to. Mainly metal and alternative music.
So I can say that ever since I started bellydancing, I was never really trained at all. I learned everything that I learned from different dancers that I admire. If I know something today, it's because I watched those great dancers and I tried to create something new inspired by their movements. Inspired by the music that I was listening to. And inspired by my own emotions and the natural ways that my body moves to the music that I love.
