How to Beautify Your Complexion

How to create that smooth and beautifully radiant complexion that will leave YOU glowing and others noticing..

 

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Clarins Instant Light Complexion Perfector
• Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch
• your foundation (preferably a liquid/cream one. I love Maxfactor's Colour Adapt. It works nicely for me.)
• A light scrub
• A good toner
• A good moisturizer

1. Okay, first things first. Wash your face with a light scrub (not harsh scrub, you don't want to redden or damage your skin. You just want to exfoliate/remove dead skin cells to create a soft, clear base). I like Yardley Oatmeal's 2-in-one Brightening Scrub/Mask. It is very gentle and brightens your complexion. Please note that it is not needed to scrub each time before you do this. 2-3 times weekly is fine.
   Then, use your toner as usual. After, apply your trusted moisturizer and allow it to dry before you do anything else. Remember that it is very important that your cleansing products (especially your moisturizer) suite your specific skin type's needs. (Oily/Dry/Combination) Otherwise the following steps will be quite useless.

   After your skin has absorbed the moisturizer, carefully apply Clarins' Instant Smooth Perfecting touch. Either with the little tool or your finger. If you have very good skin, this might be all you need as you will soon enough notice what this wonderful product does. If you wish to continue with my steps however, then read on.

   Then, after the product has settled, mix a little of the Clarins Instant Light Complexion Perfector with your foundation. You can do this by applying it in the palm of your one hand and mixing it by finger. Use just enough product, as you don't want to go wasting it.
   Next, apply the foundation mix to your face as usual. It has a beautiful feel to it. Note: You don't have to mix the foundation and the Clarins Instant Light Complexion Perfector, you can apply your foundation as per usual, using the Clarins Instant Light Complexion Perfector to only 'highlight' your face (usually the cheeks, brow bone, chin..etc).
   Next, you can apply some powder to set it all and absorb any excess unwanted shine/oil.
   
   And there!! Beautiful, radiant complexion and soft skin, usually lasting the whole day.

 How to Improve Your Complexion

 

Whether you decide to give yourself a makeover or pay for one at a salon, you're going to need to know some basic skin care tips for daily maintenance. Most experts agree that a standard three-step regimen is all you need to keep your face in good shape. If you have more serious skin conditions, several more-involved solutions are available.

Instructions 

Cleanse Daily

1. If you have dry skin, you'll need to pump a little moisture into your face with your soap. Look for brands of soap that contain either glycerin or a type of silicone, such as cyclomethicone or dimethicone.
   
   If you have oily skin, you're going to want to dry up some of that grease with your soap. Oil is like a glue that sticks all the dirt and bacteria to your face. In turn, this clogs your pores and starts the cycle of eruptions and breakouts. Use a soap that contains salicylic acid.
   
   If you have sensitive skin, you're going to need something a little milder than the typical ingredients. The important ingredient for sensitive skin types is propylene glycol.
   
   If you have normal skin, use soaps that contain lanolin, an extract from the oil glands of sheep.
   
   Many women may want to go through a skin cleansing routine twice: once to start the day by looking their best, and then again at night to remove any makeup before going to bed. Experts will tell you that this is a highly individualized choice. It's quite possible to harm your skin by over-treating it; scrubbing, exfoliating and kneading yourself constantly can do more harm than good.

Tone Daily

1. Toning is the process of removing dead skin cells from your face so that the only layer visible is one of bright and healthy new cells. The average human generates a new layer of skin every two to four weeks. You can improve your complexion tremendously by sloughing off dead skin cells and getting rid of excess oil with toner. Toning also helps balance your skin's pH after cleansing. 

Moisturize Daily

1. Having cleansed and then toned your face, you're going to need to do a little mending. Those first two stages can be a little rough on the skin and even if you use products especially designed for your face's chemistry, you may nevertheless have dried it out a little. In any event, you will want to create a protective barrier on your newly pampered skin. Moisturizers act in two ways: by throwing up a barrier that traps water in your skin, and by pulling water out of the air. One kind acts like a dam (occlusive moisturizers); the other acts like a humidifier (humectant moisturizers). The most famous occlusive is petrolatum. Humectants may include ingredients such as urea or hyaluronic acid.

Use Sunscreen

Two types of UV rays can damage the skin. The first, UVA rays, are known as "tanning rays" and are used in many sun lamps and other sources of artificial tanning. UVB rays are the type that cause sunburn. Using moisturizer that contains SPF 15 or higher can help protect your skin from sun damage.

Treat Serious Skin Conditions

1. If you're suffering from acne or psoriasis, you may need a professional treatment. For mild or moderate acne, your doctor can prescribe topical treatments such as benzoyl peroxide and retinoids to clear up the sebum and unblock your pores. Sunlight and ultraviolet light can also help acne briefly, but can still damage the skin.
   
   Psoriasis is another skin disorder that occurs in as many as 2 percent of adults. The condition manifests itself through red patches on the skin that are covered by silvery-white scales. Though the precise causes of psoriasis are not known, most researchers believe the problem is triggered by an abnormal immune reaction against some component of the skin--common causes may include stress, injuries to the skin and, less frequently, certain medications. The reaction leads the skin to grow at about seven times the normal rate.
   
   A professional dermatologist or physician can treat both of these conditions.
