JAKARTA – Many things change with age, including the condition of facial skin. As you get older, your skin needs more care. Even the way to wear makeup also needs to be adjusted.
Natural makeup, is preferred for a simple but sweet look. The most appropriate way, reported by Well and Good, Wednesday, January 19, is to treat and apply makeup to produce maximum effects such as healthy and glowing skin. Therefore, you can follow the following best tricks.
1. Wear concealer for natural makeupConcealer is a hero for natural makeup. When lack of sleep or acne scars look bothersome, concealer can be a savior to disguise dark spots. However, it is advisable to choose the perfect concealer especially the non-sticky and moisturizing ones.
Tarryn Feldman, a makeup artist based in Nashville and Los Angeles, advises avoid wearing matte and powder concealers. Choose a cream concealer that contains moisturizing ingredients, such as oil or hyaluronic acid.
2. Light foundationChoosing the right foundation is a challenge in itself. Most perfect, choose a foundation that is light and moisturizing. Usually, foundation products that are suitable for people aged 50 and above describe the advantages of 'hydrating', 'luminous', and 'repairing'.
3. Avoid facial care products with salicylic acidSalicylic acid is often claimed to fight acne, but it's not recommended for mature skin. If you're over 50, dermatologists recommend avoiding salicylic acid, as it can dry out your skin even more. Dermatologist and cosmetologist Paul Jarrod Frank, MD., recommends three products to replace salicylic acid: sunscreen, hydration, and an antioxidant serum.
4. Add vitamin K for skin careVitamin K helps minimize dark circles under the eyes. This vitamin is also useful in reducing wrinkles, puffiness, and sagging under the eyes and locks in natural moisture.
5. Use skincare that contains these ingredientsFirst, zinc oxide which functions as a sunscreen or prevents sun spots and wrinkles. Second, retinol which helps stimulate cell turnover. Furthermore, hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture and vitamin C to synthesize collagen.
6. Treat skin gentlyGentleness is the key to producing soft skin too. Because mature skin is thinner, collagen production is depleted, dermatologists recommend aggressive scrubbing. Even when wearing a mask, avoid pulling too hard so you don't risk bad things.
7. Do minimal maintenanceMany people think that more and more care products are needed as they get older. The goal is good, namely to keep the skin healthy and fresh. But according to Vijay Mudgil, MD., a board-certified dermatologist, it's wrong to use too many products in your routine care.
He said, as you get older, your skin doesn't moisturize itself either. So when using a lot of products will be a natural protective barrier. Therefore, the skin becomes more sensitive and it is recommended to do minimal maintenance.
She advises, to avoid irritation, wear a good sunscreen, a light retinoid at night, and a dense moisturizer with hyaluronic acid or ceramides.
