Skincare 101

To have a beautiful makeup application, you really need to start with skincare. Makeup is the frosting and your skin is the cake. If your skin is dry and cracked your face is going to look dry and cracked with a layer of makeup, making it look even worse.

– First what kind of skin do you have? Dry, Oily, Balanced, Aging etc. Figure that out, you probably will have a few combinations like for example. Say you have dry skin and your aging. You would get a very hydrating and anti aging product line.

Tailor your face wash, toner, serum and moisturizer and use in that order.

– You should exfoliate once a week (I like to keep mine in the shower) exfoliate more if your dry and flaky up to 2-3 times a week

– Facials are a luxury but so worth it, I like to have one done before a vacation or a special event to really get my skin glowing, once a month is ideal

– Find a moisturizer that won’t pill (clump on your skin) when you put foundation on.

– If you have textured skin from scaring or acne use a smoothing primer before foundation

This is just the basics, every person is wonderfully unique and so is your skin. If you have more questions please let our team know and we can do a lesson and tailor your personal skincare regime.

Goodbye Gorgeous!
