“In winter, both men and women need to use nourishing face creams with a high content of caring and restoring components,” advises make-up artist Marina Zhukova. - In cosmetic stores you can find a large selection of special creams of the winter series, it will not be difficult. It is important to follow the rule - the lipid (fat) content in face creams should exceed the amount of water. It should be applied to the skin at least 40 minutes before leaving the house.
Women should not neglect decorative cosmetics in such weather, says Marina Zhukova. It is imperative to use it - cosmetics as clothing protects the skin from temperature extremes. At the same time, make-up should be as environmentally friendly as possible, and cosmetics should be sustainable.
- In sub-zero weather, do not apply makeup with dry cosmetics, it is better to use oily blush, liquid eyeliner and creamy eyeshadow. Immediately before going outside, powder your face with a thin layer of loose powder, - skin care specialist, make-up artist Maria Rakhmanova joins our conversation.
At the same time, try to drink as much water as possible: it will help the skin to normalize the work of sebaceous cells and survive the cold. Also, buy a humidifier. The device will help to normalize the "weather in the house." - Even if you are freezing, - says Maria Rakhmanova, - try not to take too hot shower or bath.
The higher the degree of water, the drier the skin becomes. Do not rub with a hard towel after water procedures, but gently pat your skin with a soft one.
It is better to postpone active lifting procedures, a course of mineral masks based on algae, as well as moisturizing masks with collagen until spring - at this time the skin will need intensive hydration after cold weather. At different times of the year and for different types of skin, they choose their masks. In summer, moisturizers are more often used, in winter - fortified and nutritious, recalls Maria Rakhmanova. It is better to apply the mask 1-2 times a week, 1-2 hours before bedtime and apply a night cream immediately after it.
