Why should you use a moisturizer?

10th November 2020
"Let that beautiful skin glow!"

Skin is the biggest organ of our body and it requires regular care and attention. Many people are stressed because of various skin problems. The major skin problems are often faced due to a lack of proper attention to the skin. Moisturizing not only improves your skin but gives life to your dull and rough skin. It not only balances your skin but also help you with aging problems. Regular use of lotion and moisturizer should be a part of any good skincare regimen, but some are better than others. 

It's best to use moisturizers after a bath, shave, or exfoliation. Especially after a bath when all the moisture from your skin is washed away, you need to moisturize your skin. Let's get to know a few reasons for you to start using a moisturizer. 

Prevent dryness or oiliness

Hot weather, cold weather, indoor AC, or outdoor dust, everywhere you go and every place you visit suck the moisture out of your skin. So, it is really important to treat your beautiful skin with a good moisturizer to make your skin baby smooth. Also, not just for dry skin. Proper moisturizer (i.e. not heavy ones) can help you clean your face/ pores and maintain a balance of moisture in your face to avoid excessive oiliness

Slow the aging process

You may have noticed- oily skin wrinkle slower than dry skin which infact is a fact. If you balance your skin moisture and keep it hydrated, then you can slow the aging process. Moisturizing helps to diminish the fine lines and wrinkles. 

Fights with acne

It's difficult to take the fact that moisturizers help to reduce acne. Moisturizing an oily face? It doesn't sound reasonable. However, the fact is that if you keep your skin hydrated, the oil-producing glands in tour skin minimize the oil production. As a result, your skin will have the strength to fight the irritating acne

Reduces blemishes

The glow you get after applying a moisturizer can hide small imperfections on the skin and even out your skin tone. Many moisturizers also contain tints and self-tanning agents which will conceal blemishes, discoloration, redness, and dark spots. So, just by applying a simple moisturizer, you can have glowing, soft, and smooth skin as well as an even skin tone. 

Soothe sensitive skin

Taking care of sensitive skin is not a piece of cake. It requires extra attention, extra care, and extra products. Red spots? Rough, dry patches? It might be pretty frustrating to take care of sensitive skin. But with a moisturizer that comprises of soothing ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, oatmeal, honey, etc. your sensitive skin may revive with more elegance. 

How to use 

As mentioned above, you must use a moisturizer after washing your face or after bathing. 
1. After washing your face, pat your skin dry.
2. After drying, put the moisturizer gently using upward strokes. Don't ever press or pull your skin.
3. You can then leave it to that, or put your makeup on after moisturizing. Also, note that it's really essential to hydrate your skin prior to makeup.

6 SKIN CARE APPLIANCES THAT YOU MUST GET YOUR HANDS-ON

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

physical-exfoliants

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

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.

Types of Face Mask for Glowing Skin

21st October 2020
"Get your skin glowing!"

For a cause, face skincare masks are a crucial phase in most competent spa facials. They will easily infuse formulated ingredients into the skin to fix a laundry list of problems (dryness, inflammation, discomfort, and more) and have almost every help the skin requires (firming, brightening, purifying, the list goes on). Best of all, with every budget, you can get the complexion-boosting benefits of a face mask at home, too.

Sheet Masks.

sheet-mask

The most flexible type of face masks out there is potentially sheet masks. For a particular skincare requirement, most other styles of face masks are made. Clay masks, for instance, are good for oily skin, but not as effective for those with dry skin. For dry skin, but too strong for oily or acne-prone skin, cream masks are a hydration aid. But for any skin type, there are sheet masks made.

Masks of Clay (or Mud)

For decades, Clay Masks have been popular. There are a few distinct types of clay, with the most common being bentonite and kaolin clay. There are many medicinal applications for both forms of clay.

Clay masks are perfect for acne-prone skin, with an established capacity to absorb toxins and extract them from the skin. However, they might be dry, so if you have dry skin, do your research.

Cream mask

cream-mask

A cream mask could be for you if you have dry skin and need a hydration lift. For advanced skin, cream masks are preferable. If you have mixed skin, they can be used for spot treatment as well.

Peel-off mask

peel-off-mask

Peel-off masks can be perfect for acne or refining pores, much like clay masks. When peeling it off, you'll feel a slight exfoliation, which is perfect for those who need it. Blackhead peel-off masks are, on their own, like a mini-facial.

Charcoal Mask

charcoal-mask

In the charcoal mask type, you can note a certain overlap. There are masks of charcoal sheets, cream masks, peel-off masks, and winter masks of mud and the skin looks dark and brittle, or whether you live in a place that's

In both of these masks, activated charcoal is a common component for skin detoxification. Great with complexions and acne that are sticky.
