Get a radiant, glowy skin in 3 easy steps
Christmas party booking, dress, make-up, scents, the long (or the very short) list of New Year’s resolutions… it’s all coming closer and closer. Celebrating New Year is not just a night’s party – it’s associated with new beginning and spells of better things to happen. To look at your best, it’s a good idea to start beautifying yourselves now, when Christmas and New Year’s Eve are just a few weeks away.
And while the so called “beauty sleep” and nutritious diet rich in Omega 3-6-9 and vitamin C and E are the base of a healthy glowing skin, we explore here a skin routine that helps you feel beautiful and irresistible. Of course, as a rule of thumb, all natural and where possible organic skincare products and make-up should be the choice. It might cost a little bit extra, but we’re worth it, right? Healthy-looking, glowing skin is one of the best ways to concur the day with a smile and confidence.
Before you choose a skincare routine and rush to the store to invest in the products to boost your confidence, have a look at your face. It is very important to establish the type of skin you have. No skin is the same, so have your skin checked out by a professional beautician or dermatologist. Roughly however there are four types of skin: oily, normal/combination, dry, or sensitive. Chose your skincare products carefully according to your skin type.
The first step in your skin-care routine is cleansing. Keep it simple and don’t overdo it. Cleanse your face only in the evening before you go to bed. Use warm water to get rid of the dirt of the surface. Use oatmeal to naturally exfoliate, then apply a few drops of jojoba oil massaging into the skin for couple of minutes. Finally, using cotton soaked in pure water, gently take the remaining dirt or make up off the face. It’s natural and works wonders.
The second step to a healthy skin-care routine is moisturise. Even oily skins need moisturising to seal moisture into the skin. So invest in a good moisturiser with several vitamins like B and E in it that suits your skin. Seek the advice of an expert and you'll soon see what a difference a good moisturiser makes.
