Properly performed face and eye makeup removal is a very an important part of daily care. Every woman should give the right amount of time and attention - whether or not she was wearing make-up that day. We suggest how to perform a proper make-up removal and why it is so important.
For most people, it seems that make-up removal is just a matter of wiping off any remaining dirt, foundation, etc. from the skin's surface. Nothing could be further from the truth - it also applies to ladies who don't apply too much make-up on a daily basis or who adhere to a 'no make-up' rule altogether.
Daily adequate cleansing is an excellent a way to refresh the skin and prepare it for further skincare treatments. In this way, we are sure to remove the sebum and dead skin accumulated on the face, i.e. the substances that are responsible for the appearance of imperfections.
If this stage of skin care is skipped, the condition of the skin can deteriorate significantly in a very short time. The pores become clogged and enlarged and the dead skin on the face impedes the absorption of the active ingredients contained in the cosmetics used in the subsequent facial care steps. As a result, the skin can become dull, grey and dry.
CORRECT FACIAL MAKE-UP REMOVAL STEP BY STEP
1. proper facial make-up removal should be start with the eyes - by removing any remaining cosmetics, such as mascara, eyeliner or eye shadow. Eye make-up should be removed using a cleanser specifically designed for this purpose to reduce the risk of skin irritation, allergic reactions or wrinkles.
At this stage of facial care, soak a cotton pad in the eye make-up remover of your choice, place it briefly on the skin around the eyes so that the products there can dissolve and be removed without rubbing. If you are a fan of waterproof cosmetics, reach for special products that can effectively dissolve them.
2. then apply make-up remover into the palms of your hands and begin to do a gentle facial massage, starting at the neck and jaw and working your way up the face. In the final stage of cleansing the skin, it is a good idea to rinse the face with lukewarm water.
3. the next step is face wash with gel. First wet the skin of the face and neck with water, then apply a small amount to your hands, spread gently over the skin until a lather forms, then rinse. Always use lukewarm or even cool water to wash your face - hot water dissolves and washes away the epidermis' natural protective barrier and thus weakens our skin.
4. in the final stage of skin cleansing, it is a good idea to Refresh your face with a toner, this will help to restore the skin's correct pH and prepare it to accept the cream. Keep in mind that make-up removal should be a pleasureand not torture your skin, so do not tug on your eyelashes, rub your eyelids hard or roll your skin. It is best to gently stroke and massage it.
When removing make-up, do not forget the neck and chin, which are also where impurities collect and are prone to the appearance of imperfections or ageing.
