Why Is Moisturizer A Must In Daily Skin Care?

Written by Eveline Misini on . No Comments on Why Is Moisturizer A Must In Daily Skin Care?

Why is a moisturizer so important for the skin? A moisturizer is essential for well-groomed skin. Don’t forget: Part of the water in our body is stored in the skin. It gives the skin its volume and ensures that it looks plump, young, fresh and healthy. If the skin loses moisture due to age or incorrect care, the loss of volume also becomes visually noticeable: It becomes saggy and wrinkled. To prevent this and keep the skin’s moisture content sufficiently high, you should drink as much (water) as possible on the one hand and ensure a rich supply of moisture from the outside on the other – for example by regularly applying a moisturizer. What exactly is a moisturizer? It is a cream or lotion whose ingredients increase the moisture content of the skin. This can be necessary for various reasons, for example if the skin is genetically dry or has been exposed to excessive UV radiation. Incorrect skin care, too frequent contact with water, an unhealthy diet (vitamin deficiency) and hormonal changes can also deprive the skin of moisture. Such products are usually water-based. In order for them to work effectively and fulfill their functions, they should be suitable for the respective skin type and applied 1-2 times a day. For optimal care, it is often recommended to apply the moisturizer immediately after cleansing the skin. Why is UV protection in moisturizers important? UV rays can damage the skin acutely in the form of sunburn, but also in the long term. In the long term, they accelerate skin ageing. Pigmentation spots, fine lines and wrinkles form and become more pronounced over time. Excessive UV radiation also increases the risk of skin cancer. UV protection is therefore essential for the skin. A moisturizer with SPF (sun protection factor) contains this UV protection and simplifies the daily skin care routine, as it not only provides the skin with the moisture it needs, but also protects it from harmful sun rays. What are the main functions of a moisturizer in the skincare routine? It performs various functions in skin care. The primary function is to moisturize the skin. This is achieved through ingredients that bind water in the skin so that it remains firm and elastic. At the same time, the moisturizing cream strengthens and supports the natural skin barrier, which protects the skin from pollutants and UV radiation. It can only fulfill this protective function if it is in balance and has sufficient moisture.… weiterlesen

Written by Eveline Misini on . No Comments on Concealer, Essential For An Even Complexion

Concealer are multi-talented. The selection of make-up products is large, so the choice is often difficult. However, one thing is important for anyone who values a well-groomed appearance: a Concealer is part of the basic kit! Here you can find out what it can do and, above all, how to apply it correctly. Concealer – what do I need it for? If you ask yourself this question, you will get several answers. First of all, it’s all about an even complexion. This practical beauty aid is perfect for covering dark circles, redness and pigmentation spots. It is also ideal for concealing blemishes and even small wrinkles and scars disappear underneath. In principle, a concealer is a type of make-up that has a stronger pigmentation and higher coverage than a foundation and lasts longer on the skin. Incidentally, concealers have been used for a long time under the name of cover sticks or cover creams, even though the composition and nourishing properties have improved considerably compared to these products used in the past. This useful beauty tool is available in liquid and solid form. Those with dry skin will achieve good results with the liquid version. A small foam applicator is usually integrated for application. For oily skin types, a product with a creamy, firm consistency is better. It is available in stick form or in small jars. It is important to always choose the right shade for your skin. It is best to test it on the back of your hand. The color should be one to two shades lighter than the make-up color and the natural skin tone. Possible applications for facial areas In addition to different skin tones, this products are also available in colored versions. However, this does not enable “color painting”, but so-called color correcting. In other words, concealers in complementary colors are particularly good at balancing out any color abnormalities on the face: Green makes redness disappear, peach and orange tones work against blue veins. Yellow is ideal for concealing very dark circles under the eyes. A light purple shade is ideal for brightening up sallow skin. If you have different color problems, a concealer palette is ideal because it offers a broad color spectrum. For pigmentation spots, the stick or cream should have particularly strong coverage. The color orange successfully counteracts dark pigmentation spots. If pigmentation spots are very dark, camouflage make-up is also suitable instead of a concealer.… weiterlesen

Moisturizing for the body: why is it so important? Depending on age and gender, 60 to 80 percent of our body consists of water – and around a third of this is stored in the skin. To ensure that the skin’s moisture reservoirs are always well filled, it interacts closely with the environment: through evaporation, it releases water into the ambient air, but also absorbs new moisture again. This is possible due to a complex mixture of metabolic products – the Natural Moisturizing Factor, or NMF for short. The mixture binds moisture in the uppermost layer of the skin and thus plays an outstanding role in maintaining the skin’s balance. As long as this balance is stable, the skin appears plump and fresh. However, there are factors that can promote moisture loss, for example: Dry ambient air Cold ambient air Wind UV radiation A weakened skin protection barrier can also result in more moisture being lost than is absorbed from the ambient air. As a result, the skin gets out of balance and becomes increasingly dry. How does a lack of moisture in the skin make itself felt? Dry skin manifests itself in a variety of ways. Typical symptoms are: Redness Itching Tension Scaling When there is a lack of moisture, we literally do not feel comfortable in our skin.
