Activator Le Jour De Chanel
Chanel has developed a triple care system that restores the vital rhythm of the skin. Le Jour De Chanel is the first step and acts as a morning wake-up call for your face and should be applied immediately after cleansing. This activator lotion contains jasmine extract and salicylic acids: this mix tightens pores, evens out complexion, energizes the skin and gives it radiance throughout the day.
Sisleÿa Skin Radiance Serum
The advantage of this serum is that it works in three directions at once: it gives brightness to the face and décolleté (prickly pear extract and vitamin A palmitate are responsible for this), reduces age spots (extract of nasturtium, white mulberry, skullcap and physalis flowers work) and promotes natural radiance of the skin (provided by essential oils of lavender, geranium and rosewood).
Wet skin effect in makeup
Smooth, radiant, highly moisturized, as if covered with morning dew - this is moist skin . This term fits well with modern trends, according to which makeup can imitate the natural beauty of healthy skin instead of creating a smooth, matte “mask”.
How to get the effect of shiny, dewy skin? For normal skin this is not so difficult, but in the case of oily and problematic skin, you may be afraid that this type of makeup may increase the glow of the skin. Therefore, in the quest for dewy skin, you need to start from scratch, that is, from skin care . Systematic exfoliation and moisturizing with light products should smooth the face and bring satisfactory results.
How to get the wet skin effect? Exfoliate regularly (but not often).
When the kizhi is cleansed of old cells, it becomes smooth, bright and acne appears less often, and sebum production will be regulated . In the case of dry, normal and combination skin, it is enough to exfoliate 1-2 times a week. For oily skin, with blackheads and acne, the best results are achieved by daily use of skincare products in the form of toner or serum.
How to get the wet skin effect? Use a toner after every cleansing.
Wipe your face with toner, this way you restore skin balance and prevent it from drying out.
.
Thus, minimizing the risk of so-called dry cells or irritation that stand in the way of achieving dewy skin. Toning is important even for problematic skin because if left to its own devices, it causes the skin to produce more sebum. After washing, use products without alcohol , with lightweight substances ( rose water, aloe, chamomile, allantoin, panthenol ) and a moisturizing effect ( glycerin, hyaluronic acid ). If you use exfoliating toners at night, apply moisturizers and emollients in the morning, before applying the cream.
How to get the wet skin effect? Use serums.
Serum has more concentrated components than cream and penetrates the skin better. Thanks to this, the skin is able to absorb rejuvenating and moisturizing substances into its deeper layers . This is very important, especially in the context of dewy skin, which needs to be highly hydrated and supple.
To get the effect of smooth skin, after wiping the skin with toner, apply serum with hyaluronic acid or vitamin C . Thanks to this, you will strengthen the protective barrier of the epidermal skin, and wrinkles will be “smoothed out” from the inside. For dry skin, choose an oil-based serum, and for oily skin, choose a light product with a watery consistency. Remember that after the serum is absorbed, you need to apply the cream.
How to get the wet skin effect? Use moisturizing masks.
If you have a free evening, use this time and put a highly moisturizing mask . Maybe it will be a fabric mask or regular cream. Each additional portion of hydration prevents skin dehydration and smoothes it.
You can “rub” the remaining mask into the skin using a roller . This massage stimulates blood circulation, reduces swelling and gives the skin a healthy color.
Bobbi Brown Remedies Skin Brightener Serum No. 42
Despite the fact that this serum has a prolonged effect (with long-term use, it brightens and evens out skin tone, stimulating cell renewal), after the first use you will notice that all signs of fatigue and dull complexion have disappeared, as if they had been erased with an eraser. And all thanks to the highly concentrated formula of Remedies Skin Brightener No. 42, which contains a powerful complex of natural ingredients (plum, seaweed and molasses extracts) that restore the skin's healthy appearance and radiance. By the way, you can use this serum either alone or in combination with other care products to increase their effectiveness.
Daily care will help your skin
You can improve your complexion, even out your tone and make your skin perfect at home. The main thing is desire and our instructions, which will be useful to each of you.
To begin with, it is worth remembering that our skin needs daily and proper care, only in this case can you reach heights.
Firstly, do not forget to cleanse your facial skin of makeup, dust and dirt every night. Be sure to do this with cleansing gels, creams or makeup remover lotions. Even if you are very tired, don’t be lazy, remove your makeup correctly, otherwise your pores will become clogged, and this will lead to a lot of unpleasant problems associated with your facial skin.
Secondly, use high-quality, proven cosmetics that are suitable specifically for your face type. At the slightest sign of an allergy, refuse the product, even if it is very expensive.
Thirdly, don’t forget to nourish your facial skin. For this you will need day and night cream. In addition, do not forget about home peeling and various nourishing face masks that will help your skin glow with youth and health.
It would seem that there is nothing complicated about this; all of the above procedures will take you about fifteen minutes of total time a day. Agree that this is not so - it’s a lot, especially since you need it yourself.
Night two-phase peeling for facial skin Lancôme Visionnaire Crescendo
One of the latest developments by Lancôme scientists is the two-phase night peeling Visionnaire Crescendo, created for a comprehensive fight against skin imperfections such as enlarged pores, dull complexion, and wrinkles. Its peculiarity is that one bottle contains two products (two phases), which must be used one at a time with a break of 14 days. We start with the first phase, which is enriched with fruit acids and quinoa extract - they carefully exfoliate dead skin cells. After 14 days, we move on to the second phase with salicylic and glycolic acids, which even out the skin tone and give it smoothness. Of course, after the course (28 days) the result will be simply luxurious, but after the first use of the first phase, the complexion will become more uniform and radiant. Visionnaire Crescendo should be used in the evening after cleansing the skin. And one more important point: the peeling contains AHA acids, which can increase the skin's sensitivity to sunlight. Therefore, it is recommended to apply products with SPF filters in the morning and it is advisable not to sunbathe or at least not to stay in the sun for a long time.

all posts by the author So, dear friends, I finally decided to write a post about the alluring glossy skin that captivates our attention from the pages of expensive magazines. But how can you achieve it in everyday life? Today I will tell you this secret.
Firstly, what is this actually needed for?
1) In order to refresh and rejuvenate the skin. 2) To correct fine wrinkles, because products containing finely dispersed reflective particles also contain optical diffusers that visually level out skin imperfections. 3) To make the correction of the oval of the face more expressive. BUT, it is worth remembering that girls with problem skin should be wary of most of these products, because they mercilessly emphasize enlarged pores and acne. Products with reflective particles are divided into 2 categories and into many subtypes, giving completely different effects. 1) Dry products 2) Fatty products
What is their difference? In texture and effect. Dry products are often noticeable on the skin, give a denser pearlescent shine due to large particles, and emphasize pores. But not all, for example, a product such as luminizer (let me clarify right away, luminizer is finely dispersed highlighter, coarsely dispersed shimmer) from Shiseido Luminazing Satin Face Color
will not emphasize even the largest pores and will look on the face without a powdery effect.
It is available in 2 colors, golden low beam is suitable for tanned skin, and high beam for fair skin. In the picture we see what High Beam looks like. I also recommend considering Skinfinish from MAC
, not to be confused with beauty powders. It is in limited editions that they are much less friable and delicate in texture. Here we have the famous limited edition Champagne.
The range of dry highlighters is wide and I recommend looking at the most interesting ones from MAC.
I will not talk about Guerlain
, since they do not represent any value or interest to me, they are not a highlight and give a vulgar effect of clumsy shine on the entire face.
To avoid this, let's look at more discreet things. Bobby Brown
's acclaimed Shimmerbricks are also worthy of attention, but for me they are too shiny and I don't use them. Luxury brands release new highlighters every season, but I don’t see anything worth the money in them, not even the design... so I just recommend looking at the good old professional one.
Now let's move on to bold highlighters! I know that not many people like greasy textures because they are falsely difficult to apply, but this is a misconception. The oily texture can always be applied with your fingers and brush. It is better to apply with a synthetic brush, for example duofiber 187 MAC
or any other duofibre.
It will go on top of the powder, if it is not dense, and under the powder to slightly smooth out the shine. Bold highlight gives a dewy effect, and its texture cannot be seen on the skin. She will simply shine for you. What to watch?
The notorious MAC, since they have the most interesting products for highlighting the skin, such as
Strobbe
fluid (normal skin) or cream (dry),
Cream Color Base, Luster Drops
.
There are liquid highlighters in tubes from brands such as Armani Fluid Sheer, Make Up Forever Uplight Face Luminizer Gel, Rouge Bunny Rouge Reflective Emulsion
, but they have a dense pearlescent sheen and these products must be applied carefully so as not to add too much highlight. Let's look at the options: This is what powdered Strobbe Fluid from MAC looks like all over the face.
And this is what Cream Color Base MAC in Pearl looks like
As you can see, the effect is different, moist and tender.
Where to apply this beauty?
1) Under the eyebrow and in the inner corner of the eye. This gives the effect of 24 sleep, fresh open eyes. 2) On the cheekbones. This way we visually lift them and if we add dark matte blush under the cheekbone, we will visually elongate the face. 3) On the back of the nose to make the nose straighter. 4) Above the upper lip to lift the lip and make the mouth sexier. 5) A drop on the chin and forehead also helps to sculpt and refresh the face. A striking example is my favorite model Lena Chabunina, whose face is now fully corrected and highlighted.
Now about how to make the skin itself satin.
Here I recommend that you consider light foundations Face and Body MAC or Make Up Forever
, they are not only easy to shade and adapt to the overall skin tone, but even out the skin and go on completely unnoticeably.
You can apply 2 layers and still there will be no mask effect. I can recommend (but be sure to apply it to your face!) foundation from Prolongwear MAC
, it itself evens out the skin well, but its downside is that only ideal skin with minor imperfections accepts it well, so it’s better to try it.
If you don't use foundation, then Mineralize Loose Foundation
, because... This is a 3 in 1 foundation. It has a slight shimmer, evens out the tone, removes imperfections, moisturizes and looks uniform on the face. Combines powder, corrector and foundation. But I’ll warn everyone right away, take 2 shades lighter! Because this insidious powder mercilessly darkens your face! Feel free to apply and walk around for a few hours before purchasing. Well, actually, I think I’ve covered the topic of highlights quite widely and if you have any questions, I’ll be happy to answer in the comments! See you again! The makeup in the photos was done by me. Link to my portfolio https://www.fashionbank.ru/stylists/user/85700.html Photographer of studio shots Dayana_T https://vkontakte.ru/dmt_photography
Guerlain Météorites Oxygene Care Skin Fluid
Incredibly light and delicate white fluid instantly melts into the skin, giving it a bright glow and a light aroma of violet (Guerlain trademark). This happens thanks to the O2 Light complex and Météorites technology, which when mixed give an instant wow effect. The face seems to wake up from winter hibernation, the skin is saturated with oxygen and literally glows.
Our body has stripes like a tiger
Every person on the planet has them, although they are invisible to most people. In 1901, Dr. Alfred Blaschko (who simply called them Blaschko's lines) noticed that some people with a wide variety of skin conditions had characteristic patterns on their skin. They did not depend on the type of skin disease, age, or race. So what are these lines?
Blaschko's lines can only be seen under the threat of certain endocrinological diseases. They are already embedded in our DNA code. But despite the sadness of the situation, they look really cool. V-shaped pattern on the back with arches on the shoulders and a wavy pattern on the head. If they appeared very brightly, then we would all look like the heroes of the movie “Avatar”.
Moisturizing two-phase serum Clarins Hydra-Essentiel
This two-phase serum with a weightless texture is a real salvation for dehydrated skin that feels dry and tight during the winter. The organic extract of the Kalanchoe plant included in its composition triggers natural hydration mechanisms, stimulating the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, which, like a sponge, absorbs and retains water in all layers of the skin. The result is moisturized and radiant facial skin.
How to make your face glow without makeup? 8 tips
We all want beautiful, flawless skin and with the help of cosmetics we achieve this. However, sometimes we want to enjoy the flawlessness of our skin without using cosmetics. How can we make our skin glow without makeup? Below you will find some practical tips with which you can return your skin to a fresh and radiant look.
- Drink more pure still water. This is the simplest tip to make your skin glow. Skin cells will be saturated with moisture and it will not peel off. Make sure you drink at least one and a half to two liters of water per day. If possible, drink more.
- Everything comes from within. Probably the most important step on the path to perfect skin is to reconsider our diet. Everything we consume internally is reflected in our appearance. Eat plenty of fresh (preferably organic) fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamin C, D and E, as well as zinc. These are the main components that are the basis for radiant facial skin. Be sure to eat more oranges, apples, bananas, tomatoes, broccoli, spinach, and other natural foods high in vitamins and minerals, or take a pharmacy multivitamin. Try to limit your intake of alcohol, sugar and processed foods. If you want flawless skin, forget about smoking.
- Cleanse your skin thoroughly. Obviously, eating right and drinking enough water is clearly not enough to make your skin glow. It is necessary to thoroughly cleanse your facial skin of impurities every day. Wash your face with facial foam in the morning and evening before going to bed. Determine what type of skin you have (normal, dry, oily or combination), and select a cleanser according to the type.
- Exfoliate your face once a week. Facial skin peeling is an excellent way to constantly maintain a fresh and well-groomed appearance. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells and evens out your complexion. When exfoliating, use special abrasive gloves and an exfoliating agent (scrub). Use light massage movements to treat your facial skin for 3-5 minutes. This will unclog your pores and leave your face feeling fresh. After peeling, pat your skin dry and immediately apply moisturizer.
- Keep your skin moisturized. Hydration is very important, no matter what skin type you have. By moisturizing the skin, we protect it from moisture loss caused by the drying effects of the sun, wind, cold, and central heating. Dry skin looks dull. For the skin to look fresh, it must be sufficiently hydrated not only from the inside, but also from the outside. Be sure to apply a light moisturizer every day. This is especially important in the hot summer. By choosing a moisturizer with sunscreen, you will kill two birds with one stone.
- Healthy sleep. All women know that to look flawless, you need to get enough sleep. Therefore, take care of regular and healthy sleep. During sleep, our body replenishes energy reserves and the body's cells are restored. This regenerative process is important for your overall health and the health and condition of your skin.
- Remove makeup before bed. One of the biggest mistakes women make is that some go to bed with makeup on their face. This leads to a buildup of bacteria and inflammation of the skin.
- One more little piece of advice: if you combine all these recommendations with regular exercise , the process will speed up twice and you will achieve flawless skin in the shortest possible time.
And most importantly, enjoy life! Your skin will glow if your eyes glow with happiness and joy.
Elena,
Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum against Pigment Spots
First of all, this serum is suitable for those who struggle with pigmentation. Thanks to its composition - viniferine, obtained from grapevine juice extract, and olive squalene - it erases hated dark spots like an eraser. Manufacturers promise that after just a month of regular use, pigmentation is reduced by 83%, and skin tone is evened out and improved by 87%.
Sensai Cellular Performance Extra Intensive Eye Cream
The skin around the eyes is very thin, so it is very susceptible to age-related changes and loss of elasticity. Especially for this new product - a cream with a silk texture - two plant extracts were selected: Japanese honeysuckle and yuzu extract. The first instantly improves water balance, thereby promoting the elimination of toxins and preventing the formation of edema. The second one improves blood circulation, reduces the visibility of dark circles and restores radiance to dull skin after just a week of using the product.
Night peeling Vichy Idealia Pelling
Another overnight facial peel that will activate your skin's radiance while you sleep. Its peculiarity is that there are no exfoliating particles that would scratch the skin. The composition combines only delicate cleansing components: glycolic acid, blueberry extract, fermented black tea extract, Vichy thermal water (not a single brand product can do without it). As a result, in the morning the skin looks hydrated, well-groomed and radiant.

Recipes for effective homemade masks
Compositions for oily skin should have a drying, astringent, antibacterial, normalizing sebum production, as well as an anti-inflammatory effect.
We invite you to try the following masks, easy to prepare and effective in their effect, which are applied only after cleansing the skin surface.
Kefir
Any fermented milk products contain active bifidobacteria, which suppress the growth of pathogenic microflora, normalize the production of sebaceous secretions, increase local skin immunity, and also have a whitening effect.
It is best to take homemade kefir or homemade yogurt without additives. Moisten a cotton pad with it and wipe the problematic epidermis several times (as each previous layer dries). Then leave the mask on your face for 20 minutes, then rinse with warm boiled water and rinse with cool water.
Protein
Raw egg white has a pronounced drying effect, tightens pores, reduces the production of sebum, as well as a quick mattifying effect. It can be used as the only component or added to other masks intended for oily epidermis.
Beat the raw protein a little with a fork until a light foam appears, indicating the activation of the ingredients in the composition, then apply a thick layer to the face along the massage lines, excluding the area around the eyes and lips.
Lemon-protein
It is written about protein above, but about lemon juice it should be said that this is a very useful remedy for problem skin, since it removes the dead stratum corneum of the epithelium, kills harmful bacteria and infections by creating an acidic environment, regulates the activity of the sebaceous glands, dries, whitens, tightens enlarged pores.
Mix raw protein and freshly squeezed lemon juice in equal parts, stir the mixture well and apply it along massage lines to oily areas of the face using a cotton pad in layers. This mask has a strong tightening effect, like the previous one, so during its action (15 minutes) you must lie down, do not talk or laugh.
Vitamin
All components contained in this mask have a complex effect, as they fill the epidermis with vitamins, minerals, and acids, which are of great benefit to oily skin types.
You will need to take a small amount of cranberries, a few slices of peeled kiwi, orange, banana and the same amount of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Place these ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Apply this mask in a thick, even layer and leave on the face for at least 20 minutes. Since the composition has a moisturizing, tonic, general strengthening, protecting and normalizing effect of the sebaceous glands, it can be used frequently - 3 - 4 times a week.
Yeast
The value of yeast lies in the presence of a large amount of B vitamins, which are called “skin” vitamins, as they have a tonic, regulating, disinfecting, drying and rejuvenating effect. The skin after such masks glows with health and beauty.
For this recipe you will need to take soft baker's yeast, dilute it with warm water to the consistency of thick sour cream, let the mixture sit for a quarter of an hour and apply the mask in a thick layer.
