Summer makeup 2016: creation features
With the onset of summer, the skin is exposed to quite strong stress - the negative effects of ultraviolet rays, salt water, heat, wind. As a result, more active work of the sebaceous glands is provoked, due to which beautiful makeup can be completely destroyed. That is why special and proper care is needed to care for the skin, protect it and prevent redness, flaking and irritation.
With the onset of summer, you need to follow a few simple rules for facial skin care, thanks to which the freshness of the make-up will be maintained throughout the day and the image will remain bright and spectacular:
- In the summertime, do not overuse the scrub. Now is not the best time to carry out different types of peels, as such procedures, as a result, cause an increased sensitivity of the skin to ultraviolet rays. Therefore, there is a risk of getting a serious burn, which cannot be masked even with makeup.
- In the summer, it is worth increasing the amount of fluid consumed in order to prevent dehydration of the body, which will primarily negatively affect the appearance of the skin - for example, the relief of the skin is disturbed, the complexion worsens, and premature wrinkles are formed.
- In hot weather, it is recommended to periodically moisturize your face. Thermal water can be used for this purpose. Thanks to regular spraying of the face, the skin regains freshness, and traces of fatigue are quickly removed.
- You should not touch your face with dirty hands too often, so as not to provoke the appearance of acne and other types of rashes.
- In the hot season, you need to use the right care products that have a mild effect. It is strictly forbidden to use tonics and lotions for washing, which contain alcohol, as they will greatly dry out the skin.
- In hot weather, more sebum production occurs, but at the same time, the sun's rays severely dry out the skin, so it needs additional and regular care. Before proceeding directly to applying makeup, it is necessary to apply a moisturizing cream of light consistency, which will not overload the epidermis. In the evening, a cream is used to care for the area around the eyes and in the morning, about one hour before going outside. With the help of a clean napkin, excess cosmetic products that have not been absorbed into the skin are removed.
How to choose cosmetics for summer makeup?
When choosing cosmetics for creating summer makeup, you need to pay special attention to its composition. The ideal option would be products containing special ingredients that reliably protect the skin from the negative effects of ultraviolet rays.
Under the condition of increased ultraviolet activity, prolonged exposure to the sun, if the skin is not fully protected, can provoke a variety of damage to the epidermis, the most dangerous of which is the development of neoplasms.
To prevent the occurrence of various health problems, it is necessary to regularly use special sunscreen before going outside. Also, cosmetics with UV filters helps to avoid such unpleasant consequences as increased dryness of the skin, the appearance of flaking, irritation, premature aging, the formation of wrinkles, pigmentation and freckles.
In the summer, you should completely abandon the use of foundation. In the event that there is an urgent need to use this product, it is best to choose light creams with a fluid texture that create a translucent effect. It is desirable that the composition of such a foundation include UV filters.
When choosing a foundation with a tanning effect, it is recommended to give preference to a cream that is darker than the complexion. To create summer makeup, it is worth choosing products with a slight toning effect, CC and BB creams are also suitable, since they have a light texture and a lot of positive qualities for summer care - the process of sebum production is normalized, the epidermis is reliably protected from ultraviolet rays, the likelihood of the formation of different types of rashes is minimized. If you wish, you can make a light toning agent yourself. For this purpose, any moisturizer is mixed with a small amount of foundation. An excellent concealer option is a simple concealer, which should match your skin tone or be one tone lighter. It is recommended to use a loose powder instead of a compact powder, as it has a lighter texture. Loose powder does not cause an unpleasant feeling of tightness, as compact, but it looks natural on the skin and does not create a mask effect, it will not clog into pores or wrinkles.
When choosing a powder for summer make-up, you should give preference to a product with small particles of mother-of-pearl, as well as a slight tanning effect - the skin acquires a light natural radiance and the complexion is refreshed.
Loose powder should be applied using a special wide brush, so that the product is evenly distributed over the surface of the skin. Then, using a puff, excess funds are removed.
For summer makeup 2016, it is recommended to choose a blush of coral or warm golden shades. Alternatively, a bronzer can be used that is applied to the cheekbones, center of the forehead and chin.
