A clear, glowing complexion is at the top of every woman’s beauty wishlist...
by Valerie Breese
CLEAR SKIN IS A SIGN OF YOUTH, health and vitality, so it’s little wonder 85 per cent of women say it would make them feel more confi dent. But in our quest to get a blemish free complexion, it’s all too easy to do more harm than good – and many of us do. You can over-cleanse the skin, especially if you use products that contain alcohol and/or detergents. By drying out the skin, and stripping it of its natural oils, they unbalance its natural, protective water and oil levels. That, in turn, can irritate the skin, leading to blemishes, spots, sensitivity and dryness.
So just how do you keep your skin clear and cleansed without damaging it? For a deep cleanse, use products with fruit acids, such as glycolic acid, which ‘sweeps’ the pores clean. Clay can draw out impurities and if your skin is oily or prone to acne, look for cleansers
containing triclosan, an antibacterial that’s great for keeping breakouts at bay.
For those of us with less problematic skin, most experts recommend oil-based cleansers, which give thorough cleansing without stripping skin of its protective barrier. Oils help to moisturise while gently melting away dirt and grease, maintaining the delicate balance of the skin. Use a toner and cleanser daily, as the toner contains ph, which calms your skin and allows your moisturizer to penetrate better.
After months of winter winds and central heating the skin can be left dry, dull and uneven. The best solution is an exfoliant facial scrub which used weekly can brighten the skin and leave it smooth, radiant and visibly hydrated.
Before applying make up use a primer, which gives the perfect foundation for your makeup and helps it last longer.
