Everything is very simple. You've probably heard many times about the importance of daily cleansing of the face from make-up and other things. But how to do it right?
There are some simple rules, following which, you will always look perfect, the essence of these rules: maximum beauty - minimum effort.
The first rule:
No soap! In any soap, even in the most delicate and fragrant, contains alkali, which destroys the lipid layer. It does not take long for the skin to become sensitive, rough to look at and touch. A little later, a vascular network begins to appear and "black dots" will remain in place. Agree that it is not very attractive.
The second rule:
Wash yourself every morning and evening. But if the soap does not fit, then what? You've probably heard about face milk and tonics.
Surely one of these tools you use to remove makeup. But there is still something to strive for. What's the matter?
And again the answer is simple: a means for cleansing the skin of the face (it can be milk, gel, foam for washing) and tonic - these are two inseparable twins. Cleanser opens the pores, intensively cleanses the skin from dirt and removes makeup. Tonic closes already clean pores, tones up the skin, gives it a fresh look.
Many tonics can also remove make-up, but this is their secondary, not to say side effect.
If you ignore the cleanser (milk, gel, foam - depending on the type of skin), the pores of the skin and remain contaminated, and from this pimples and black dots.
So, remember: first a cleanser, then a tonic. Both are required.
What kind of cleanser to choose: milk, gel, facial cleanser or lotion to remove makeup? It depends on the type of your skin. Milk or mousse is suitable for normal and dry skin. Gel - ideal for oily and combination skin. Penka or lotion - for any type of skin. But the remedy for removing waterproof makeup is better to use for its intended purpose.
In winter, any type of skin can use the means for normal skin, so as not to overdry the skin in the frost.
Tonic should be the same series, and certainly the same firm and even more so. It is in this case that they are ideal for each other and will not cause a chemical burn.
The third rule:
Correctly matched cream or complex for face care. It should match your skin type and age. A lot of different creams are on the cosmetic market. You can use the next cheat sheet when choosing the cream you need (complex).
With the type of skin everything is simple. On the packaging, it is almost always indicated for what type of skin is this or that cream (for dry, normal, oily, combination, sensitive, young skin). It goes without saying that they should be used strictly for their intended purpose, without experiments.
Now the nuances: for a young skin, moisturizing creams are ideal, there is no need to scrub (they do not even need to look at the regenerating ones).
Since the age of 25, there is a need for more active night care and a cream for the skin around the eyes. Thus, one cream turns into a complex, which should be used strictly for the purpose: day cream in the morning after washing, night - in the evening after washing 2 hours before bedtime. For a very delicate and sensitive eyelid skin, only a cream for the skin around the eyes, no daytime, and especially nocturnal cream, should not be applied.
After 30 years, there is a need to use anti-aging agents. The packaging is usually indicated by the age at which this product can be used. To achieve maximum effect, it is necessary to use the entire series, that is, the entire complex represented. Usually it includes means for cleansing and toning, day, night cream, cream (serum) for the skin of the eyelids, correction for local wrinkles, masks and active serum.
The fourth rule:
Once a week, not more often, use a scrub. Twice a week it can be used only after 40 - 45 years. Up to 20 years in use, scrub is not necessary, because skin cells themselves are updated very quickly. The use of a scrub at this age can lead to excessive skin sensitivity. Use the scrub after cleansing, before toning, that is, between the cleanser and tonic.
The fifth rule:
Intensive care - mask. The mask is chosen according to the type of skin and according to its individual needs. For example, nourishing masks are suitable for dry skin, moisturizing - for any type of skin, masks with clay - for oily and problematic skin.
Masks with clay deeply clean the pores, they can be used locally: for the A-zone in order to get rid of the "black spots" or for deep cleaning over the polluted pore - pimple. Exfoliating masks promote active renewal of the skin, making it more youthful. They can be used to smooth the surface of the skin, if there is a need for it. Active anti-aging masks are included in complexes for the care of mature skin. As already mentioned, in order to achieve the maximum anti-aging effect, it is necessary to use the complex as a whole.
Caring for the face, always pay attention to the skin of the neck, because it is the neck that can give out the "careless" mistress. Do not spare an extra drop of cream for the skin of your neck and you will be impeccable.
Remember and about the hands. In addition to the cream, they need a weekly scrub to let loose new cells.
Observe these simple rules and captivating those around you with their beauty and natural freshness.
