Face Mask Facts

Filed under: Cosmetics Advice — Tags: — admin @ 4:40 pm

Face masks can be exfoliating, anti-aging, deep cleansing, lifting and moisturising. They can revitalise a tired complexion and they can be a relaxing and luxurious experience that has a considerable feel good factor.

For Mature skin, masks can deliver a burst of temporary anti-ageing ingredients that instantly soften and smooth lines. Often the effect can last for several days.

When you are planning to use a face mask the first thing to do is cleanse thoroughly.  Your will only get the full benefit if you apply the mask to scrupulously clean skin. This will allow your face to absorb more of the ingredients of the mask.

Masks work best when coverage is generous, so don’t be afraid to use a thicker application. The mask won’t work as well if it is applied to thinly so don’t be tempted to save money by scrimping here.

Try placing a slice of chilled cucumber or a chilled, used tea bag over the eyes while you are relaxing with the face mask on. This will brighten and tighten the eye area.

Masks for dry skin can often be removed with a dry tissue, this is especially good for very dry skin as a thin film of moisture stays on the skin for hours afterwards. For other masks remove with a wet, warm face cloth in gentle, circular movements. This will act as a gentle exfoliant and leave skin instantly brighter and clearer looking. But don’t use abrasive exfoliants at this stage as you don’t want to strip the skin.

Always moisturise directly after using a mask . With dead skin sloughed off and pores unclogged, your moisturiser will sink in more deeply and have greater penetrating results.

Nothing Opens the Eyes Like Eyelash Curlers.

Filed under: Cosmetics Advice — Tags: — admin @ 6:15 pm

No make up artist would be without eyelash curlers. A real professional trick for that ultra-wide eyed look.

Curl at the base first, then at the halfway point to finish. Hold for about 10 seconds and always curl on clean lashes, before using mascara.

You don’t need to pay out a lot for heated curlers, just heat metal ones under the hairdryer for a few seconds for the same effect.

You will find this one in the Mascara section for only £1.99
