"An easy guide to choosing the ideal makeup products and application techniques that suit your skin type," said Isha Yogi, Senior Lecturer, Personal Styling & Image Consultancy, PearlxStudio, as quoted from Indian Express.
Here, Gaya Spa has summarized how to choose makeup that suits your skin type.
1. Oily Skin
Using light, oil-free, and non-comedogenic products that don't clog pores can be an option for oily skin owners.
Don't forget to clean your face twice before applying make up.
Also, choose a matte foundation or foundation or a tinted moisturizer with a mattifying effect.
Pair foundation with loose powder or pressed powder to help your makeup stay intact.
2. Dry Skin
For dry skin, choose a foundation with a dewy finish.
Avoid foundations that are labeled matte or powdery, and stay away from powder-based products as they accentuate dryness.
3. Combination Skin
If you have combination skin with oily T-zone and dry cheeks, choose oil-free and light products for the T-zone and moisturizing products for the cheeks.
Next, choose a matte foundation for the T-zone and a hydrating foundation for the cheeks.
Apply a water-based moisturizer prior to makeup application followed by a mattifying primer to be safe.
4. Sensitive Skin
If you have sensitive skin, choose mineral-based makeup as these formulations usually do not contain harsh or irritating chemicals such as dyes and additives.
Use a natural cleansing balm to remove your makeup to avoid skin irritation.
5. Acne Skin
Use non-comedogenic products that won't clog your pores and avoid aggravating your acne.
For a light foundation, make sure it has an active acne-fighting ingredient like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.
Avoid heavy oil-based products that can clog pores.
Hopefully it's useful.
