Three unusual skincare tips

These life hacks you definitely did not meet. We offer exclusive advice from Healthy-Food.

Apply SPF before manicure

Now it’s hard to imagine how we lived before the invention of super-resistant gel polishes. They last for several weeks, do not fade and do not lose their luster under any circumstances. True, when signing up for such a manicure, we do not take into account one fact: an ultraviolet lamp is used to dry the gel polish.

What does UV radiation do to the skin? That’s right: it dries and provokes photoaging, that is, age spots and wrinkles. So before going to the salon, apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15-20 on your hands. For ease of use, there are several forms of release that you can carry with you and apply where and when you need it.

  • Sunscreen Dry Face Spray Ambre Solaire “Expert Protection”, SPF 50, Garnier Suitable for hands too. The 75 ml can won’t take up much space in your purse, and the texture is so light that it doesn’t feel on the skin at all.

  • Sun milk for face and body in a compact format 50 ml Anthelios, SPF 50+/PPD 46, La Roche-Posay with a non-sticky texture and a high degree of protection, it is always ready to help.

Do not change winter cream for summer, just dilute it (not with water)

We received this advice from a brand expert L’Oréal Paris Marina Kamanina. Here’s what she means:

“Often in the winter we use creams with a dense texture, but in the summer something lighter is appropriate. At the same time, I do not want to give up the usual means. What to do? Take your favorite cream and mix with a few drops directly in the palm of your hand. aquafluid “Genius of moisturizing”. The application will be easy, the sensations will be comfortable, and the absorption will be instant.”

Pin up long hair when you apply conditioner

We all do this: we get into the shower, wash our hair, apply conditioner / balm / mask, give it time to work, but for now we are doing other things – we shave our legs, brush our teeth, wash ourselves or just hang in the shower, unable to interrupt the “water meditation “.

Why an all-in-one shower is not the best idea, this article explains. As for the balm, then, remaining all this time on the hair, it not only does its direct duties, but along the way “conditions” the skin. And she doesn’t need it at all.

Prolonged and frequent contact of oily areas of the body, such as the back and shoulders, with hair emollients, which include silicones and oils, has been shown to cause clogged pores. If you have long hair, oily skin, and you don’t need pimples on your back, use a shower cap or hairpin.
