8 skin care mistakes you make every day

We use moisturizers, tonics, tonal tools every day, but often do it wrong.
We do not moisturize the skin during the cold season.
The skin needs to be hydrated both in summer and in winter, reminds lady.mail.ru. The myth that “moisturizing cream can freeze” has long been disproved by cosmetologists, who explain: the body maintains a constant temperature, therefore, the absorbed cream cannot become icy on the skin. True, you still need to apply it wisely, for 15 — 20 minutes before the release, so that everything is absorbed.
Wash off makeup tonic
Tonic is designed to tone the skin, restore pH and narrow pores. To remove decorative cosmetics with tonic means to dissolve the impurities and drive them deeper into the pores. From such daily torture, rashes and even blackheads appear on the skin.
Dilute the foundation with cream
A cream and a tonal tool have different textures, so they can simply “not make friends.”
“This advice is great if you are wearing makeup before a shoot or a short event - it gives your skin an incredible glow. But in other cases, it is better not to repeat the technique. There is a risk of clogging the pores, ”writes the expert and creator of the cosmetics brand Yana Vershigruk.

Apply decorative cosmetics immediately after the cream
If you apply a primer or tonal tool before the cream is absorbed, then you risk getting a “mess” on the face. Not absorbed completely means mixed with color cosmetics, and later completely "float" on the skin.
Apply foundation or care for the entire face under the eyes
The foundation is created taking into account the features of the skin of the face, the skin under the eyes is much thinner (0,03 mm, to be exact) and has a tendency to form mimic wrinkles. Face cream is not suitable for such a sensitive area, it will only emphasize wrinkles. So put under the eyes only products for this area.
We talk on the phone when on the face mask
Each mask has a period of action — for example, clay masks require 10 — 15 minutes, and after 20 — 30 minutes, they stop working and give back everything that they have just taken to clean, heated pores. So read the packaging carefully. It is also important what you do when you use a mask. Ideally, you need to lie all the time specified on the package - so that it does not "slip" under the action of gravity.

If you don’t have time to lie (suppose you are going to work and you need to do a lot of things), then try to relax your face at least: don’t talk, don’t kiss your reflection in the mirror, do not make faces for the sake of selfies (even world stars) - so the mask will work much better (especially if it promises a lifting effect).
We use a tonal tool with a smaller SPF-factor than a face cream.
Not everyone knows that SPF does not add up, but overlap with each other. That is, if you put a cream with SPF 30 on your face, and then a tonal foundation with SPF 15, then the factor will be 15.
We use after-sun scrub
All tanned skin needs is moisturizing and nourishing. It is better to do peels and scrubs for 3 — 4 weeks before or after sunbathing.
