Skincare What You Have Been Doing Wrong!!
Have you ever had one of those days when your skin feels lifeless and dull despite the makeup and the effort you put into it? While some skin problems like discoloration, scarring and acne are common and makeup may serve as a great alternative to hide the
Let’s face the truth, no amount of expensive products is going to bring change in your skin if you are simply using products that are not your ideal skin type. Taking care of your skin is as equally important because the more we grow older, our skin starts losing its elasticity and thus tends to develop fine lines, wrinkles, large pores and dullness. Many people will tell you that most of our skin problems are hormonal but some of them are the consequences of simply not properly removing our makeup leading to blocked pores and ultimately to acne. So, we are sharing some beauty solutions that will work for every skin type:
Double Cleanse: Use a thick creamy consistent cleanser to remove your makeup and later on use a soapy formula like face wash to remove the rest of the residue. For me non-comedogenic are the best as they don’t block the pores.
Toning: Using toner on your skin is highly recommended. It helps to wipe away residues left after cleansing, and helps the skin to absorb the product you are going to use next.
Exfoliate: Our skin renews every 28 days and exfoliation rejuvenates the cells in our skin by removing dead skin cells. Many people hold the idea that if you have dry skin you should not exfoliate but exfoliating actually helps in opening up your clogged pores thus aiding to pass products through different layers of the skin. But make sure that you don’t overdo it because it can cause microscopic tears in your skin, leaving permanent damage.
Face mask: Face masks are a great way to brighten, freshen and tighten your skin depending on the products you use. I’ve always preferred homemade masks and there are tons of recipes on the internet depending on the skin type.
Moisturize: Thinking that your oily skin doesn’t need moisturization is the biggest mistake you can make to damage your skin. Every skin type needs moisture, it just depends on what product your skin requires. Moisturizing helps to stop ageing and also gives the skin the nutrients it needs.
Sun protection: Did you know that applying sunscreen right before you go to bed is as equally important as applying it before you go outside in the sun. While sun screens help a great deal in keeping off from harmful UVA and UVB rays, avoiding skin cancer, it also helps in slowing the process of premature ageing caused by the harmful rays of the sun.
