Staying beautiful is an art of self care. A healthy glowing skin will always look beautiful than a face caked with make-up. Therefore, if you are not following a skin care regime right now, you need to start at the earliest possible time. Moving on, let’s discuss how we all can stay beautiful all day long.

Skin care

Skin care includes cleansing, toning, moisturizing at the very least. Also, scrubbing, hydrating, acne care, revitalizing and applying mask should also be included on a weekly or fortnight basis. This helps to nourish your skin and to clear away problems that could otherwise make you look older than you already are. A good skin care regime will ensure that your pores are tight and your skin flawless. If your skin is already damaged by the acne breakout or other conditions, you can use make-up, on top of your skin care to ensure that you look beautiful all day long.

Make-up

Make up is an invention that changed the life of many. It has the ability to hide flaws and make your face look smooth and flawless. In turn, it builds confidence that makes the person even more attractive. However, you must know how to use make-up to your advantage. Otherwise, you would end up with a mess than a beautiful face.

Always prepare you face before you start with your make-up. If your face is naturally oily, you will need to apply an oil control lotion or cream to control the sebum production. Otherwise, by mid-day, your make-up would be shiny and might even run. Similarly, if you have dry or flaky skin, ensure that you use sufficient moisturizer before you apply your make-up.

Make up products use elements that could be irritating to some skin. Hence, it is always best to test the product before you buy. My vote will always go to mineral make-up. Mineral makeup is light weight and would hide the pores more evenly and does not cake your face. Moreover, it is easier and convenient to re-apply than liquid or heavy foundation. Some simple make up tips will ensure that your make up could last for the entire day.

1) Layer

Layering helps to build coverage. This helps to ensure that your flaws are not visible once you are out in the sun or when you are perspiring.

2) Work from the outside

It is best to start your make up from the corner and work inside. This prevents your makeup from looking caked or more obvious at the centre and less at the side.

3) Apply downwards

Always apply your makeup in downward motion. Otherwise, your makeup would clog your pores. This could lead to more skin problems than you already have.

4) Re-apply

We can never say that the make-up would last forever. Therefore, if you have to reapply, you have to reapply. Touching up make-up, especially if you are perspiring a lot or if the weather is hot and humid, would ensure that you look beautiful all day long.

Exercise

Exercise has this unique ability to give you the glow necessary for your age. This glow would enhance your skin care as well as your make up. Since your blood circulation level would be good if you exercise, you skin would be much healthier making you look naturally beautiful.

Avoid oily food

Avoid any food or diet that gives you problem skin. This could be chocolate or fried chicken.

On the whole, looking beautiful all day long is possible for all. All you need is to take care of your skin and body and cover up the natural flaws with simple make-up techniques.

The key to proper skin care as a teen lies in routine and consistency, as well as using the proper products. If order to see any improvement at all in your skin, you must develop a skincare ritual and stick to it every day. This routine can be broken down into three main parts: opening the pores, cleansing, and spot treatment if necessary. Various products are available for cleansing of the face as well as spot treatment of acne, with many levels of effectiveness.

Mild products are generally best for daily skin treatment: natural astringents like lemon juice or a strawberry mask can be very useful if you are concerned about absorbing artificial chemicals into your skin. Many of these treatments can be made easily at home with little effort or money required to prepare them. Although these treatments do not provide as immediate results as artificial treatments, they may be safer and more effective to use in the long run.

Alternatively, there are numerous artificial products available for skin treatment. Popular acne treatment systems like Proactiv and Clearasil use harsher chemicals like Benzoyl Peroxide and Salycic Acid as the active ingredient to get immediate results. The downside to using these harsh chemicals is that they often cause peeling and dryness of the skin, and may even contribute to further acne breakouts as the skin becomes resistant to the treatment. If you wish to use systems like these ones, you should either purchase a good facial moisturizer, such as Cetaphil, or use products with concentrations of active ingredient 5% or greater only sparingly.

In addition, there are acne care solutions that can only be purchased with a doctor’s prescription. Prescription Azelex is a highly effective treatment for moderate to severe acne that uses Azelaic Acid as the active ingredient. Azelex has the same type of effectiveness as Proactiv and Clearasil, without the negative side effects of dryness, peeling, and further breakouts. The downside to Azelex is that it is only available from the prescription of a dermatologist, and is fairly expensive to purchase if not covered by your insurance policy.

Over the counter acne treatments are available at a fairly reasonable price, and many can be as effective, if not more effective, than more expensive treatment systems. Stridex pads use a lower concentration of Benzoyl Peroxide and Salycic Acid (2%) that seems to be very effective in treatment of acne. In my own experience, I find that a daily ritual of cleansing with Safeguard Antibacterial Soap, use of a Stridex pad, and moisturizing with Cetaphil is the most effective skin care treatment. It is important to note, however, that everyone’s skin is different, and that this approach may not work for everyone.  

There are countless acne and skin care treatments on the market. Since everyone’s skin is different, only you can decide what works the best for you. If you have concerns about skin health or potential side effects of products, you should talk to your family physician or a licensed dermatologist. Remember that any acne regimen will require time to work properly. The best solution lies for your acne lies in establishing a skin care routine and sticking to it.
