How to apply a matte lipstick?

13th December 2020
"Flaunt those lips with a matte finish!"

Everyone desires beautiful and sexy matte finish lips. As much as alluring the matte lipstick is, the ones with dry lips might get the same amount of problems if not applied properly. Matte lipsticks tend to dry out the lips skin faster; so, it is crucial to moisturize and exfoliate before applying a matte lipstick. 

 

Here are some steps on how to apply matte lipstick like a pro. 

Exfoliate your lips

Firstly, you must prep your lips for the lipstick as it is vital to have smooth lips before applying the lipstick. You need to scrub your lips before moisturization to remove any sort of dry or dead skin off your lips. You can buy your own scrub, make your own scrub, or can even use a toothbrush to scrub your skin. Once you're done, pat the lips dry with a towel. 

Moisturize your lips

The second step is to moisturize. As matte liquid or lipstick stays on your lips the whole day, your lips get dry. So, it is essential to moisturize your skin before applying the lipstick. Choose a wax-based lip balm rather than an oil-based or greasy one to keep your lips soft and smooth.

Finish your makeup

Lipsticks must be worn at the end. So, finish your makeup and then apply lipstick. 

Line your lips

To have a finely defined lip, you need to line the lips using a lip liner. Choose a lip liner with the same or slightly higher shade than your lipstick and start lining your lips from the top center i.e. cupid's bow and outline the entire lips. You can also fill your entire lips with the lip liner as well.

Apply the lipstick

Apply the lipstick with short strokes for the first coat. Avoid rubbing your lips together as it may bring changes in the consistency of the lip shade. Also, if you want, then you can also apply another coat of lipstick. 

Blot for extra-matte finish and conceal the mistakes

If you wish for the extra-matte finish, then you can blot your lipstick using toilet paper or any tissue paper. Once you're done, wipe off the mistakes using a concealer or any sort of cream.

How to choose a face exfoliator?

17th October 2020
"Exfoliate to get that dirt out of your pores!"

Naturally, our skin lets go of dead skin cells but continue to leave few mates behind, leading to clogged pores and rough skin. Huh.   Using a facial exfoliator is a perfect way to get rid of the extra dead skin and give yourself a glow-up if your complexion can use some WBC.

But how do you pick the one that's right? 

For exfoliation, there are numerous approaches. What procedure you use and how much you exfoliate can be determined by your skin type.

Methods for exfoliation

There are numerous skin exfoliation strategies and equipment. Mechanical exfoliation styles are facial scrubs and brushes. Chemical exfoliation styles are acids and skin peels.

Chemical Exfoliator

chemical-exfoliator

With the application of chemicals to help in cell turnover, chemical exfoliants extract dead skin cells. Peels are chemical exfoliants that are useful not only for smoothing but for brightening as well. 

Alpha-hydroxy acids:  

  • Made from natural ingredients and, since they extract the "glue" that binds dead skin cells together, are suitable for exfoliating dry skin. Gross, yes, but the payoff is cleaner skin.
  • Can not penetrate very deep into the pores because they are water-soluble.

Beta-hydroxy acids:

  • Oil Soluble by comparison
  • Can penetrate very deep into the pores because they are water-soluble.
  • Have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects, usually a more profound exfoliation.
  • For those with dry, acne-prone skin

 

Physical Exfoliator

Exfoliation by the use of small seeds, a brush, or a scalpel is very easy. But not all physical exfoliants are equally made. Peep the list of ingredients in the average drugstore scrub to guarantee that none of the exfoliating agents are too high. Scrubs do operate, the doctor claims, so they need to be carefully handled. And they aren't as powerful or as soft as chemical exfoliation, considering what some people say.

Exfoliation by skin type 

 

Normal skin

normal-skin

You can use any form of exfoliation if your skin doesn't have any issues. For this skin type, manual and chemical exfoliation both are effective. To figure out which approach fits better on your skin, you might have to try.

Oily skin

Manual exfoliation and brushing may take advantage of oily or darker skin. Oily skin can have an additional layer of buildup on the surface that can be removed by manual exfoliation. Just use an exfoliator or scrub lightly for the maximum performance in circular gestures.

Dry skin

dry-skin

For dry or brittle skin, exfoliation is essential. Stop mechanical exfoliation on dry skin due to the drying process, which can lead to micro-tears. For dry skin, AHAs are efficient. 

Glycolic acid can help to eliminate dead skin resting on the skin surface and facilitate proper regeneration of the skin. By using glycolic acid, follow it up with an SPF and moisturizer. It will make the skin more vulnerable to exposure from the sun.

Sensitive skin

Stop scrubbing by using mechanical exfoliation processes. These can further irritate the skin and can contribute to redness. Apply with a soft wet cloth using a mild chemical exfoliator. You should even try the salicylic acid rinse at the office of your dermatologist for acne.

Combination skin

Mixed skin can involve a combination of chemical and mechanical exfoliation. Never do both on the same day as the skin can become irritated. And use a moisturizer right after exfoliation if the skin feels dry after exfoliation.

How much do you exfoliate?

The amount of exfoliation depends on the condition of the skin and the condition of exfoliation you use. Some chemical exfoliants can, for example, be solid. Generally speaking, exfoliating skin one to two days a week is appropriate for dry skin to be successful.

More regular exfoliation can involve oily skin. As it can lead to redness and inflammation, prevent over-exfoliating. If you need guidance finding out how much it's appropriate for some of you to exfoliate, talk to a dermatologist.
