Christmas is a time of excess in different areas that have an impact on the state of your skin. To begin with, our agenda is filled with celebrations around a table, where we eat more copious and unhealthy meals, in addition to the abuse of alcoholic beverages. It is worth remembering that diet has an influence on the state of our skin that we should not overlook.
There is also the fact that we resort to much more ornate makeup for the holidays, which we also wear for longer, saturating our complexion. Not to mention that she usually does her thing and we go to bed without removing our makeup or cleaning our face, knowing that this will have consequences. And let’s not forget that our sleep is also more irregular during these times and that we can have stress due to preparations, getting everything done at work before vacation, trips to see family…
As a result, the skin suffers. Pores are clogged, oily skin produces even more sebum, while dry and sensitive skin is tighter, more irritated and dehydrated. Imperfections also appear such as dark circles, pimples or blackheads, redness, irregular tone, dull and dull complexion. To remedy all these conditions, recovering healthy habits and a stable routine will be of great help. In addition, of course, to resorting to cosmetics to detoxify and pamper the skin. Here are the products that will come to your rescue to once again show off a smooth, radiant and healthy complexion.
It is imperative to start a detox facial care routine with a deep cleansing to remove any trace of makeup. Apply double cleansing, first with an oil-based product and then with a soap or foam.
The next step will be to exfoliate the skin to remove dead cells and unclog pores. Opt for a chemical exfoliant with active ingredients such as salicylic acid or glycolic acid. Your complexion will regain its luminosity and will be more receptive to the following cosmetics.
The mask is the best resource when it comes to restoring the skin from the damage suffered. The choice will depend on the needs of your skin. If you notice it is oily, with imperfections such as pimples or blackheads and with clogged pores, opt for a purifying mask. On the other hand, if you feel sensitive, dehydrated and dull, opt for a nourishing, hydrating and restorative mask.
The final touch will be to say goodbye to marked dark circles, bags and puffiness around the eyes with the help of patches for this delicate area. Look for them with caffeine among their ingredients to show off a more awake look.
