article gives tips on skin care
and I hope it will be helpful to
you. - Bob
While the
shelves labeled beauty care are
laden with various types of
products to help you with your
skin, confusion lies in choosing
the right product.
So
what is the best bet?
To choose a
new entrant on the block or wait
for something which might still
be much better. Also "whether
this will suit my skin type’
remains unanswered. It is
important to know how to deal
with our skin. Skin is not any
just surface wherein you try and
test various concoctions in
pursuit of beauty.
Smartness
lies not in believing the
promises of the product and
experimenting for experiments
sake but understanding the true
type and texture of your skin and
caring for it wisely.
Cosmetics
come in many form and deciding
what is good for your is often a
matter of personal taste. Here is
a basic skin care advice that
every woman should know.
- Cleansers
cleanse the skin of impurities
and restore the natural oil
balance. Liquid cleansers are
available in the market for all
skin types. A good cleanser deep
cleanses, opens the pores, and
removes excess oil and makeup.
Cream based
cleansers are good for dry skin.
For oily skin, grains coarse
cleanser should be used.
Medicated soaps should be used
for acne and problem skin and
hypoallergenic soaps for
sensitive skin. For touch ups
throughout the day, use pad
cleansers.

Refreshers complete the
cleansing process. They
tone, soothe and hydrate
the skin and keep the
complexion clear and
clean. Astringents for
oily and normal skin
types, toners for normal
and dry skin and
fresheners are meant for
dry sensitive or problem
skin.
-
Moisturizers refuel your
skin's moisture and
nourish it. Moisturizers
form a protective shield
to minimize moisture
evaporation and
dehydration of dry area.
They
help restore skin's
natural moisture
balance. While oil
control moisturizers
control excess oil and
prevent blemishes,
emollients are creams
for dry skin that
replenish the natural
supply of the skin's
oil.

- Masks
exfoliate dead cells from the
surface of the skin while
hydrating and moisturizing it.
Facial masks for dry skin remove
dry flaky skin, while oily skin
facial masks fine tune the skin's
texture, deep cleanse it and
control sebum.
-
Foundation protects the skin by
keeping the moisture in and dirt
out besides giving the skin a
flawless look. To choose the
right shade of foundation, test
the colour on your jaw line and
it should be the same colour as
your complexion. Use full
coverage foundations for normal
to dry skin and medium coverage
ones for normal to oily skin.
Whatever is
your skin type, take care of it
through cleansing, toning and
moisturizing ritual everyday.
Apart from external help and
topical application the skin
could do much better with some
effort for the system.
Exercise,
facial massage and a healthy diet
regime can complement your
skincare routine and help the
skin look healthy and nourished
always.
