Balancing Makeup and Skincare: How I Do It

Today, I'd like to share my approach to balancing makeup and skincare. In this busy world, we often overlook giving ourselves proper skincare and makeup time. This is precisely the topic I want to explore – how to strike a balance between makeup and skincare in our daily lives to keep our skin healthy and beautiful.
1. Skincare Comes First, Makeup Second First and foremost, I firmly believe that skincare must take precedence. Only with healthy skin can our natural beauty shine through. Every morning and evening, I follow the basic skincare routine: cleansing, toning, applying serum, moisturizing, and using sunscreen. These steps keep my skin clean, hydrated, and protected, making makeup application easier. I also regularly use face masks to provide my skin with extra nourishment and repair, especially on busy days. 2. Opt for Lightweight Base Makeup Products When I decide to wear makeup, I choose lightweight base makeup products. Using heavy foundation or concealer can clog pores and lead to skin issues. Instead, I opt for lightweight foundation or BB cream and use concealer only on the areas that need coverage. This allows my skin to breathe while achieving a more natural look. 3. Keep Oil-Absorbing Sheets Handy Whether your skin is dry, oily, or combination, having oil-absorbing sheets on hand is essential. These sheets gently blot away excess oil, helping your makeup stay at its best and avoiding prolonged greasiness. 4. Thoroughly Remove Makeup at Night One crucial step that should never be overlooked is thoroughly removing makeup at night. Even if you didn't wear heavy makeup that day, never be lazy about removing it. Makeup removers or cleansing oils are effective ways to dissolve makeup and impurities, allowing your skin to repair overnight. 5. Allow Your Skin to Breathe with Adequate Rest On the journey to balance skincare and makeup, giving your skin ample rest is also crucial. When I feel tired, I try to avoid makeup and let my skin rest. I make sure to get enough sleep at night. Sufficient sleep aids in skin cell renewal and repair, keeping the skin healthy and radiant. The above tips are my personal experiences and non-professional advice on achieving a balance between makeup and skincare. Please remember that everyone's skin is different, so if you have specific skin issues or need professional advice, it's recommended to seek guidance from a dermatologist. I believe that only by giving our skin proper care can our makeup look more vibrant and captivating. I hope these tips are helpful to you too!, Thank you for reading, and if you have any questions about makeup and skincare, feel free to share them in the comments section for further discussion! #skincare #beautytips#eyecream#viicode#eyewrinkle#antiaging#oxygenskincare

Thorough cleansing is the foundation of skincare. How to deeply cleanse the skin?

Many of us these days are really focused on keeping our facial skin looking its best. But with long hours at work and late nights, our skin can end up feeling dry, rough, and seriously lacking in moisture. That's when a good cleanse is crucial. Let's dive into some methods for deep facial cleansing together. So, why is deep cleansing so important? Well, your skin breathes through the tiny gaps between its cells, especially in the outermost layer called the stratum corneum. It also absorbs moisture and nutrients through this layer, as well as through the pores and sebaceous glands. In hot weather, sweat and oil production ramp up, and combined with airborne dust, it's easy for pores to get clogged with grime. If we don't thoroughly clean our skin, those old dead skin cells stick around, making the skin's surface thicker. This not only makes it hard for your skin to breathe properly, but it also blocks the absorption of skincare products, directly affecting your s

Summer has finally arrived, bringing with it a flurry of sunshine to bask in, but also putting our skin to the test. From UV exposure to dehydration, oiliness, inflammation, redness, clogged pores, and sagging, the list of skin woes seems endless. Finding the right balance is key: too much skincare can overwhelm the skin, while neglecting it can lead to summer sensitivities. For a summer skincare routine, remember just two words: "clean" and "light". Clean Routine: Start with a thorough daily cleanse. Summer means our skin's oil glands are working overtime, making it crucial to rid the skin of impurities and dust that can clog pores. Opt for waterless skincare to minimize the impact of water pollutants. Deep Cleanse: In addition to daily cleansing, incorporate a weekly deep cleanse. Oily or combination skin types can benefit from a weekly session, while dry or sensitive types may do better with bi-weekly treatments. Swap harsh physical exfoliants for gentle
