All of us at least once, but faced this: our own reflection in the mirror suddenly causes an attack of despair. Such unpleasant discoveries are made in the morning. Looking at the depressing picture in the mirror, you understand that it is pointless to blame your traditional skin care products: they are quite capable of delaying skin aging, but to cope with the traces of a sleepless night? Or a recent illness? Heavy conversation, exhausting trip, prolonged stress?..
Dryness, lethargy, dullness – not a complete list of what your own reflection may one day demonstrate. And how, one wonders, to bring yourself to life for the hour of time left before going to work?
After the ball
Main rule: don't go to bed with makeup on! Mascara will get into the eyes and increase irritation, foundation and powder will not allow the pores to fully breathe. After removing the make–up, cleanse the skin with a light scrub, and in the morning it will look fresh and make-up will lie more evenly.
In the morning, start your recovery program with a gel mask-glasses. First of all, it will become easier purely emotionally. A pleasant chill will refresh your thoughts, coolness will restore the tone of the thin skin of the eyelids.
Your skin will be even more grateful for a session of contrast washing and a moisturizing mask. We advise you to choose masks containing enzymes. This component, firstly, cleanses the skin well, and secondly, it is a conductor: it helps other active ingredients to penetrate into the deep cellular layers.
You will need:
- Concealer – mask circles and puffiness under the eyes.
- Moisturizing Spray – refresh your face throughout the day.
- Pearl Glitter – give cheekbones a glow.
After a cold
Our task: to return the blooming appearance. It is difficult for an organism, exhausted by medication and a lack of fresh air, to maintain a flowering appearance. Our job is to get him back.
First, strengthen the curls, restore their shine and volume, for example, using a colorless henna mask. Add a few drops of tea tree oil to henna – it will relieve irritation on the skin, and add shine to the curls.
Chapped lips need a little massage with a gentle scrub. If this is not the case, then massage your lips with a light circular motion with a toothbrush, its bristles will exfoliate the keratinized areas.
Dim and painful complexion will eliminate peeling, and massage will improve blood circulation.
Your actions should be as follows:
- steam your skin with a special sauna;
- remove the dead skin layer with an effective exfoliator;
- after peeling, lightly pat the skin with the pads of your fingers, pressing on the points first in the middle of the temples, then in the center of the upper cheekbones and in the inner corners of the eyes.
Keep your make-up minimalist. Enough light pink blush on the cheekbones, translucent gloss on the lips and some black or gray mascara.
You will need:
- Hair spray to make curls shine.
- Lip balm with nourishing and softening effect.
After labor exploits
In the process of conquering the world, or at least a part of it that you like, for the time being, everything is fine: traces of lack of sleep, fast food dinners, difficult negotiations help to hide a good foundation. But there comes a time when such a disguise no longer saves: dark circles under the eyes appear even through concealers, and a grayish skin tone indicates a lack of fresh air. Fortunately, today there are a sufficient number of means to quickly and effectively remedy the situation.
We advise you to start with troubled dark circles. They appear when, due to lack of sleep, venous fluid accumulates under the lower eyelids and presses on the vessels located there. Because the skin in this area is thin, pinched blood vessels show through, giving the eyelids a dark tint. The best remedy – 8-10 hour sleep.
We advise you to resort to a cold massage: run several times from the outer corner of the eyes to the inner one with frozen cubes of violet flower decoction.
Next step – intense hydration. A concentrated serum will provide it, apply it in a thick layer on the skin, let it absorb, and blot the rest with a tissue.
For dry skin, choose products based on hyaluronic acid, oily and combination – containing clay.
You will need:
- Gel lifting for the area around the eyes to mask fine wrinkles.
- A bottle of lemon essential oil – for invigorating aromatherapy.
