How to treat combination skin

Although treating combination skin can be a little tricky, it’s entirely doable if you remember what the overall goal is, but first…

Do you understand what your pore size is telling you about your skin type?

The larger the pore, the more sebaceous glands you have which secretes oil to soften and protect your skin. And when your glands secrete too much oil, you have ‘oily’ skin.

When your pores are barely visible, you have dry skin which means it’s in desperate need of lubrication.

But when you have both skin types (oily forehead, nose and chin; dry & flaky outer areas) you are considered to have combination skin.

The goal of treating combination skin is to keep the oil and water levels in both skin types balanced. In other words, your ’T-Zone’ should never be overly-lubricated and your dry skin should feel hydrated and not uncomfortably tight.

Start off your skin care regimen with a cleanser that hydrates…

ACNE

Acne vulgaris (or acne) is a common human skin disease, characterized by areas of skin with seborrhea (scaly red skin), comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), papules (pinheads), pustules (pimples), nodules (large papules) and possibly scarring. Acne affects mostly skin with the densest population of sebaceous follicles; these areas include the face, the upper part of the chest, and the back. Severe acne is inflammatory, but acne can also manifest in noninflammatory forms.
The lesions are caused by changes in pilosebaceous units, skin structures consisting of a hair follicle and its associated sebaceous gland, changes that require androgen stimulation.
Acne occurs most commonly during adolescence, affecting more than 96% of teenagers, and often continues into adulthood.If not properly taken care of,acne could turn into a nightmare as it could discolor and disfigure the face

MAKEUP TRICKS FOR THE LIPS

1. You cannot disguise flaky lips with lipstick. In fact it hurts a little and it looks uglier. Therefore it is very important to protect your lips with a lip balm.

2. Avoid Vaseline or anything that is petroleum based when conditioning your lips, it will cause your lipstick colour to slide off. Instead choose waxy Chap Stick and allow it to sink in your lips for a few minutes. It helps your lip colour to last longer too.


3. If you have naturally dark lips and have a natural darker skin tone. Dark lipstick colour will flatter your natural skin tone. If you wish to have a lighter lip tone, you may apply creamy foundation to your lips and apply your desired lip colour. Do avoid colours that are bright, shimmery or pastel as these colours are not the most suitable for people with darker skin tone.

4. You may find that perfect red lipstick by mixing and matching your own red lipstick colour tone. Add a little brown to your bright red lipstick to experiment until you find the colour tone that suits you.

5. Make up can be a temporarily solution to deep lines and wrinkles above your lips. You can use cream based makeup with reflective ingredients that will actually fill in the lines and make the lines on your face less visible. I would recommend a good skincare regime to concealing all these lines.
