Make up for Sensitive Skin

Makeup is an old tradition. Even in the historical period women used to use makeup to make them look more attractive and presentable. Earlier they used to apply heena, chalk, white lead etc. And now there are innumerable brands and makeup products to choose according to skin type.

Makeup has always been an inseparable part of a woman’s identity and personality. Although makeup looks good and it is also important on several occasions but skin care is even more important than that. So here are some of the tips given by QNet Arabia experts regarding makeup and care of sensitive skin:

·         Prepare your Skin Well: Use a gentle cleanser, cold water and a good quality moisturizer before starting your makeup. Avoid using harsh, chemical soaps to wash your face. Keeping you skin hydrated is also very important. QNet’s Physio Radiance range of skincare products is natural, hypoallergenic, and perfect for sensitive skin.

·         Check the Formula: Skin absorbs about 60% of what is placed on it, so be very careful in choosing what you are applying on your face. Be it lipstick, foundation or face powder, always read the formula before buying it and applying it. Avoid products that contain ingredients like alcohol, paraben, sulphate, toluene etc.

·         Avoid Strong Fragrances: Sensitive skin is often allergic to perfumed products. Perfume allergies can cause rashes, irritation and redness. Choose foundations and cream products that are fragrance-free.

·         Buy after Testing: You might get convinced to buy a product by looking at it, listening about it or reading the description. But before buying it, apply a patch on your face to check colour and sensitivity. If face test is not possible, then the least you could do is to apply it at the back of your palm.

Make up is just an enhancement in your features, personality and beauty but the real beauty lies in a healthy skin. Take care of your make up products, eating habits, drink lots of water and exercise to get flawless skin.
