Excluding a specific moment, it is more than likely that you have been living "face wash" for more than a month. And it is that being at home the makeup has come to occupy the bottom of the bag . Okay, yeah, we've all turned to red lipstick at some point when we were down, but foundations, concealers, bronzer, and blush have all passed away during confinement.
We've done it for convenience, and even though we've made a few mistakes, we may have done our skin a huge favor. These are the (positive) consequences of leaving your skin without makeup for a while.
Advantages of not putting on makeup that will make you rethink your beauty routine
The first thing you have to be clear about is what you have NOT done with your skin. There is a false belief that the skin breathes, but it does not. Your skin hasn't breathed these days, nor do you drown it when you put on makeup. Putting on makeup is not harmful to the skin as long as you clean and remove it well before going to sleep.
Having clarified this, let's see what we have done.
- Fewer breakouts
If you weren't using a non-comedogenic foundation before confinement, you may have breakouts from time to time or more severe breakouts. And is that makeup when it is not non-comedogenic can clog pores and cause dirt to become infected or stay inside, favoring the appearance of blackheads when it oxidizes.
- Blurred expression lines
In the event that powder makeup is your ally when it comes to perfecting your skin, you may also have noticed that now your expression lines are less marked. It is not that they have improved thanks to not wearing makeup, it is that powder makeup (if you do not apply it well), marks them more . For the return to the "new normal" get a more fluid foundation. They may cover blemishes less, but you will look younger. Take a look at these anti-aging makeup foundations.
- Juicier skin
Moisturizing creams have been our great allies in these weeks. We have used them more than usual, at the slightest symptom of tension we have resorted to the jar more than necessary and, of course, that glow effect is very noticeable.
- More populated lashes
Making up and especially removing make-up from the eyelashes in an inappropriate way makes them fall out more. Therefore, it would not be surprising if you noticed them more populated. If, in addition, you are using a serum to strengthen the eyelashes, much better. In the future, try to use make-up removers for the eyes that do not imply rubbing: neither cottons, nor wipes, this way you will save your eyelashes after confinement.
- More regular skin
If you have done your homework well these days, surely you have had more time and more desire to follow a well thought out and structured beauty routine. Facial masks have been our great pleasure these days to set up a spa moment at home and the rush has not made us skip basic care such as cleaning or moisturizing each morning and the application of serums with active ingredients and anti-aging acids. night.
Now that you've come this far, don't miss these tips to make the most of your beauty routine and look gorgeous.
