Masks and cosmetics "reset" for radiant skin

Perfect skin thanks to masks

Don't let winter and pollution dull the skin on your face or let toxins build up in your body, causing uncomfortable and unsightly swelling. Time to do a reset. Recover the youth and luminosity of your face from home with masks, giving special prominence to the purifying and illuminating ones, and resort to the best detox body products to enhance the effect of the most effective remodeling treatments.

The most appropriate for our skin at this time is a detoxifying action and a peeling effect that renews the skin. And for this "nothing better than purifying and illuminating masks, because with their ultra-concentrated formulas we achieve professional results at home," according to the pharmacist and expert in dermocosmetics Rocío Escalante.

Brightening face masks: refine pore and brighten

Look for those that include two or more of these active ingredients: vitamin C, vitamin E, resveratrol, hyaluronic acid, pro-retinol … By acting together, “they develop a powerful brightening, antioxidant and retexturizing action, while purifying and detoxifying the skin, "says Rocío Escalante.

Masks with AHA. Or what is the same, masks with alpha hydroxy acids (AHA). They are another excellent option because, in addition to gently exfoliating the skin, they "lighten" it, that is, they unify the tone. They are ideal for skin with a dull tone or mature skin with spots.

When you apply a mask, "saturating" the skin with highly concentrated ingredients, there is vasodilation and a slight heating effect that causes the pores to dilate. In this way, the skin is able to better absorb all the benefits of the active ingredients. Respect the minutes indicated on the mask container: 10, 15, 20 minutes … "By leaving it longer you will not get better results," says the pharmacist.

Purifying face masks - not a single blemish

These masks complement the action of facial cleansers. The infallible ones, those that celebrities wear on the networks, are formulated with one or more of these ingredients:

Clay . Purifies the skin. Green clay is more suitable for oily skin, white or yellow for combination, and pink for sensitive skin.
Activated carbon . It cleans the pores in depth, but it is convenient to use a good moisturizer afterwards because it tends to dry out the skin.
Algae. They are very antioxidants. They eliminate toxins and rehydrate. Due to their anti-inflammatory properties, they are ideal when there are acne breakouts.
Volcanic sand. It has an exfoliating action and improves the texture of the skin, refining it.
Tea tree. Helps regulate excess fat, remineralizes the skin and fights pimples.

Make it a pleasant ritual

To enjoy your moment, choose the mask format that you like the most.

Gel, cream or foam. A good layer is applied and after the recommended time, it is rinsed off with water or the rest of the product is massaged.
Tissue. Known as sheet or veil masks, the fabric is impregnated and conforms to the face.
Plastic or peel-off. When deposited on the skin, they form a transparent film and are removed by pulling from the edges. Be careful with sensitive skin: some adhere too much and can damage the skin.

Deflated body without toxins

Toxins manifest in your body in the form of edema, loss of elasticity, accumulation of fat and lack of firmness. Say goodbye to the "balloon effect" with:

Remodeling cosmetics. You can reduce up to 1.5 cm of contour thanks to plant extracts (birch, horsetail, ivy) or powerful active ingredients such as caffeine.
Food Complements. They detoxify (chlorella algae), drain and burn fat faster (artichoke, chitosan) or help intestinal transit (milk thistle, fucus and aloe vera).
Draining massage. With circular and upward movements you accelerate the action of cosmetics and drain the tissues affected by fluid retention.

The slimming treatments that do work

Do you want to accelerate the results of your beauty ritual? These are the protocols that are sweeping:

Combined Tech to measure. After a personalized diagnosis, the number of sessions is established in which several remodeling techniques are combined: radiofrequency, acoustic waves, LPG or Icoon.
Drainage more currents. Vooder therapy (lymphatic drainage massage) is combined to empty the nodes, while the galvanic technique works from the inside of the cell, giving a firmer appearance to the skin. Eliminates fat while firming up the muscles.
Algotherapy. It uses the powerful reducing power of fucus seaweed, spirulina algae or brown algae to eliminate liquids and toxins. Reduce the volume.
Remodeling massage. It is still an excellent option to reduce swelling. Combined with reducing cosmetics, it eliminates toxins, improves circulation and reduces contour.
Pressotherapy. It is one of the most established techniques against fluid retention. The air pressure performs a lymphatic drainage that helps treat cellulite, as well as poor circulation.
