Your skin will look its best when you wash it with a water-soluble cleanser, or a cleansing milk. Bar soaps tend to be overly harsh on faces, unless you use a moisturizing soap. These soaps are designed to promote a healthy level of moisture within the layers of your skin cells. After cleansing, use a cotton ball soaked with a toner (like Sea Breeze) to remove any dirt left behind, and to leave your face with a fresh tingle. Complete your facial cleansing routine by applying your favorite moisturizer. Wait about five minutes for it to absorb, and then apply your foundation.
If you have any blemishes, use a medicated cover stick to treat the outbreak while it conceals. In an emergency, put a few drops of original Visine on a cotton swab, and press it on the blemish for two minutes. It really does get the red out! Cleansing and moisturizing should be a part of every woman’s night time ritual.
A clean face receives maximum rejuvenation from a night’s restful sleep with a hydrating layer of moisture.
As the weather shifts between hot and cold, rainy and dry, you’ll want to make adjustments in your daily cleansing routine. Winter skin care requires more moisturizing, but less exfoliating.
Your recipe for beautiful skin should include a health conscious diet, plenty of water and sleep, and a weekly scrub treatment to cleanse away deep grime and imbedded oil.
Your goal is to keep skin pores open to air exchange; you should select products labeled “non-comedogenic” — which means the product won’t stick in your pores and cause irritation.
Finding products that will adequately nourish the seasonal needs of your skin will prove worth the effort, as will wearing makeup with an SPF rating of 15+.
Beautiful skin does indeed cause confidence.
