How to restore facial skin in 7 days
Frost and wind dry out the skin much more than the hot sun. It is in winter that the skin of the face suffers from redness and begins to peel off. Make-up does not save, the foundation lays down unevenly and only emphasizes the flaws. WDay.ru has found ways to restore a beautiful and well-groomed look to the skin in just a week. Let’s start right now!
The first thing to do is change your daily skincare routine.
Morning
Even normal skin tends to dry out in winter. If you notice flaking, tightness and redness, reduce the amount of water treatments. In the morning, wash your face at least an hour before going outside. And if there are bitter frosts outside, you don’t have to wash your face at all, but just wipe your face with a cotton pad dipped in cosmetic milk. Then apply a nourishing cream to your skin.
Often, the nourishing cream leaves an unnecessary shine, which can be easily removed: apply the cream with three fingers, massaging, tapping until it is completely absorbed. After 10 minutes, blot the skin with a tissue. What happens: tapping movements will ensure better penetration of the dense cream into the skin, which will absorb as much as it needs, and the napkin will absorb the excess, thereby leaving no oily shine on the face.
Before going outside
apply a foundation on the skin (one more protective layer will not hurt);
powder your face. A cloud of powder will also protect you from the scalding effect of frost);
Put lipstick on your lips (regular or hygienic, but not a moisturizing gloss or permanent lipstick).
Evening
Washing is a mandatory procedure, but each skin type needs its own approach:
for oily skin, cleansing gels are suitable. They will remove excess fat, relieve inflammation and refresh the skin;
for normal to combination skin, both gels and foams can be used, but avoid products that matting the skin;
with dry, and especially with sensitive skin, it is better to completely abandon water and use milk and tonic as cleansing agents.
If you prefer water, make it a rule to finish rinsing your face with soft boiled or drinking bottled water at room temperature, then the skin will definitely stop peeling.
