What type of skin do you have?.. How to care for your skin type?

In order to care for your skin properly you will have to know its type. I want to share some things I learned with all of you. Here you will get an idea on what type of skin you have and learn what sort of care it requires.

Normal skin  -  Feels neither dry, nor oily. Its pores are visible, but are not large or clogged. It remains smooth after washing and still looks fresh and clean around noon. Occasionally spots can appear.

How to care for normal skin  - Wash it often rubbing it with light massaging motions. Use night cream for normal skin. Remove makeup with makeup removal tonic and follow this with a light moisturizer.
                                                              ................
Dry skin - Is thin with papery texture. It feels dry, as if something is pulling on it. Pores look normal. After washing it feels tight, as if it is a size too small for your face. By noon flaky areas appear. Dry skin does not have spots.

How to care for dry skin - Use makeup removal lotion and not a tonic, because tonics further dehydrate the skin. Washing with cold water is recommended, because this will refresh the skin and give it more elasticity. Use deep hydration lotions and creams, preferably ones with moisture retaining properties.
                                                            .....................

Oily skin - Well, oily skin feels greasy. Its texture is often rough. The pores are large and clogged with debris. It feels great after washing. Around noon this skin type is already greased and shiny. Spots appear often.

How to care for oily skin - Wash your face with cleansing foam. This way you will remove grease and dirt, but retain moisture. Use alcohol based tonic to cleanse your face. It will dissolve fats and act as a disinfectant. After it you will have to apply moisturizer, but make sure to use a light water-based kind. Give the lotion a few minutes to get absorbed by the skin and wipe the excess with a tissue.
                                                         .....................
Combined skin - is a mixture of normal, dry and oily skin in different areas of the face. Dryness is most often found in the area of the cheeks. Oily is the skin in the T-zone and the chin. After washing some areas feel dry, while others feel perfect. Around noon the T-zone is already shining with grease while the cheeks are noticeably dry. Most women are of the combined skin type.

How to care for combined skin -Use cleansing foam to wash your face in the morning. This keeps the oily areas clean and prevents the formation of blackheads. In the evening use a deep hydrating lotion to calm the dry areas.
                                                       ...........................
Sensitive skin - Sensitive skin is easily irritable. Typical reactions are itching, burning and flaking. After washing it feels dry and certain areas of it feel itchy. By noon it is already red and flaking. Spots appear occasionally.

How to care for sensitive skin - Do not wash your face with soap. Instead, use hypoallergenic cleansing lotion. Make sure your lotions do not contain perfume or alcohol. Use only products designed for sensitive skin. Fortunately, there are a lot of these on the market.

Bright Colours

Few weeks left for summer so make sure that you will stop wearing nude colors on you eyes and change your eye look into brighter :D

Here I will give you an idea for some bright eye looks..

In this first look is just added a tiny bit of color but make ton of difference. A colorful eyeliner/eye pencil will change your look.




For those who aren't into colors for eye looks this is a great idea.

In this second look is for those who love smokey look but not always adding black but with a touch of blue and navy blue. Lips can be light pink or nude.

 

 

Don't be afraid this summer adding more than 2 colors to your eye look.

 

If you aren't into colorful eye look do a color lips. Lips change your whole look. Do a soft eye look. Get out from your comfort zone and do a red/purple/orange lipstick :)
