Airbrush Makeup
This Year’s Top Skincare Tips
As a society we’re almost obsessive about the quality of our skin. The number of airbrushed, doll-like models in the glossy mags are a great source of active envy. But wait a minute! This supposedly unattainable airbrushed look is something you can approximate well enough without resorting to cans of spray paint or trowels of makeup. A skincare routine may require a lot of patience and discipline, but your skin quality is so essential to your beauty that it’s worth putting the hours in. Da Vinci didn’t paint the Mona Lisa on a napkin after all.
The first step to any skincare routine is always to cleanse, and first among the queen of cleansers is surely Eve Lom. Eve Lom’s cleanser formula makes for a brilliant canvas for any masterpiece. Your skin will feel incredibly fresh and smooth, so much so that you may even leave your toner and foundation on the shelf. Building on the success of the cleanser range, Eve Lom are also diversifying into moisturisers, masks, spot treatments and eye creams and these come highly recommended.
Aesop skincare products are worthy alternatives, especially if you’re after natural, botanical solutions that don’t rely on safe but unnatural compounds. The Aesop range is also very diverse, running beyond facial creams to full body cleansers, body balms, lip balms, deodorants and beyond.
And your future skin-quality is being safeguarded by a new generation of products. You’re never too young or old to use an anti-ageing cream to maintain the long-term quality of your skin. Perricone MD is the ever expanding beauty range from Dr. Nicholas Perricone, a published dermatologist who has written many papers on the subject of skincare. You’ll find formulations in the range that prevent, correct and repair signs of ageing.
But beyond these miracle creams and lotions, you can do an awful lot for yourself without spending all that much. 8 hours of sleep, chicken instead of red meat, drink water regularly and have at least half an hour of daily exercise.
