Kiev. Ukraine. Ukraine Gate – January 2, 2021 – Fashion
Caring for skin up to 25 is simple, and troublesome only in one, in a sense – regularity. So far, all your skin needs in a global sense is hydration and ultraviolet protection. Intensive nutrition and stimulation of processes, complex chemical procedures and a cosmetologist are not prescribed to you every week. The fact is that the work of cells slows down mostly after 25 years (each case, of course, individual): it is believed that it is after this age that the biological aging process begins, then you will have to think for the first time about a radical change of care. Principles:
Basic care
There are only three cosmetic rules – cleansing, moisturizing and protection.
Cleaning
It is performed twice a day, in the evening and in the morning, regardless of whether you applied makeup, walked outside all day or spent it spying on Kendall Jenner’s Instagram. In the morning, you can entrust skin care with a soft cleansing foam that will wash away traces of dust, sweat, sebum and other impurities that have stuck to the skin overnight. In the evening, do the same, if you do not apply makeup. When there are cosmetics on the face, first wash it off with make-up remover (micellar water or milk), and then wash with your favorite cleanser, but better more serious (gel, cream). Note: hydrophilic oil has two functions at once.
Humidification
Its absence in a few years will respond to the first wrinkles in the eye area and dull complexion. The fact is that the lack of moisture affects the self-protection of the skin: it ceases to properly repel the “attacks” of the environment and ages faster. Moisturizers should be applied daily in the morning and evening, paying special attention to the area around the eyes, which is most prone to age-related changes (it requires special care).
Protection
Ultraviolet is one of those external irritants that our skin cannot fully resist. UV rays not only dehydrate the skin, but also cause damage at the cellular level. Ultraviolet destroys collagen and triggers processes that lead to various skin diseases (in the worst case scenario – to cancer). Therefore, it is extremely important every day (regardless of the season) to use products with a protection factor – after 25-27 years it is highly desirable, and after 30 is absolutely necessary. In the city it can be a tool with SPF 8-15, and on the beach should be at least SPF 20.
Fighting imperfections
Young skin is prone to imperfections such as pimples, blackheads, enlarged pores and oily shine. If you have problem skin, it is better to immediately consult a cosmetologist and undergo treatment (it’s time to admit that acne is a disease). Here, special emphasis should be placed on the word “course”, because a one-time visit is unlikely to help solve the problem. The therapist will help you choose the right care so that you can continue to effectively deal with skin problems at home.
What should be the “young” cosmetics?
A dozen simple tips will help to competently fill a cosmetic bag without compromising beauty.
Texture
Detergents should not be sticky or cause discomfort. After cleansing, you should feel a feeling of freshness, not tightness. Change the product to another product if you feel something unpleasant. Please note: foam is considered to be the most comfortable format to use!
Age
Don’t be tempted to take “something anti-aging” off the shelf. If the package says 25+, and you still have at least a few years before that date, put the box aside and look for a more appropriate product.
Divide
It is good if the day and night creams are different: they have completely different functions (even in the “young” versions). For day care, choose a cream with SPF-factor, and for night care, any moisturizing or nourishing is suitable. Don’t forget about eye cream. As we said above, this area is more prone to age-related changes than others.
Don’t overdo it
Be more careful with peels: choose the softest and gentlest options (preferably with abrasive particles) that do not injure the skin. Be careful with acids – they can cause irritation, especially if the skin is dry.
Protect
Cosmetics can also be with a factor of protection from UV rays. If it is possible to choose something with a similar option, do not neglect it.
Treat
If the skin is prone to rashes or acne, pay attention to cosmetics with salicylic acid: it will not only correct existing problems, but also prevent their appearance in the future. But keep in mind that over time the skin gets used to this ingredient and stops reacting to it – over time you will need to change the product to something else.
Lip care
They also need hydration and protection. Always have a moisturizing lip balm with you, which should be supplemented with sun protection in the summer.
Easier – better
Young skin loves fluids, gels and mousses over dense heavy textures. Not only will they cope with their easy tasks, but they will not overload the skin, allowing it to breathe.
One line
It is best to take cosmetics from one line: some products can “fight” with each other and cause irritation. This is not the rule, but it is better to be safe.
Dose
If the instructions say “apply two or three drops”, do not apply 10-15. This will not increase the efficiency, and you will spend the tool faster.
