New Delhi: Festivals can inevitably lead to two situations: a perfectly enjoyable and energetic day when you are at your best, or a tiring and sweaty day from the heat and humidity. While it’s understandable that sweating is a perfectly natural human body function, heat and sweat can cause a few skin issues like clogged pores, blackheads, acne, pimples, and rashes. However, there is no reason to despair if you can follow a few beauty tips that can keep skin problems at bay.

Before going deeper into the subject, you should know that the golden principle of care is Cleansing, Toning and Moisturizing, which we cannot do without at all costs. Cleansing the skin is gaining importance in order to get rid of sweat and oil deposits. A proper CTM routine helps keep the skin hydrated and restore the skin’s normal acid-alkaline balance to prevent rash conditions such as pimples and acne. Beauty mogul Shahnaz Husain shares beauty tips to beat the festival blues:

Sunscreen is essential

Protect your skin from the harmful effects of the sun’s UV rays by applying sunscreen, before sun exposure, to the face and exposed areas of the body. Select a sunscreen or sunscreen with an SPF of at least 20 or 25. For skin sensitive to the sun, apply a higher SPF of 40 or 60. If the skin is dry, sunscreen should be applied, while than for normal to oily or combination skin, a sun gel is more suitable. Sunscreen should be applied about 20 minutes before sun exposure, to give it time to be absorbed into the skin. It must be reapplied if you are in the sun for more than an hour at a time. The effects of the sun increase near bodies of water and snow because they reflect solar radiation. In the treatment of skin pigmentation, protecting the skin with sunscreens is an important aspect.

Go for a light and matte makeup

Make-up, festivities, heat and sweat require a judicious choice of cosmetics. The heat can further stimulate the sebaceous and sweat glands, making the skin oily. You should therefore select matte products without oil. Matte products do not contain mineral oil and other oils, makeup will not be greasy, especially during the day. Using matte products helps control the greasy appearance.

Rose water tonic

Bursting with vitamins such as vitamin A, C, D, E, and B3, rose water is a wonderful ingredient for a skin toner. Rose water is suitable for all skin types and can protect the skin from heat and pollution, cool the skin and give it a natural glow. It has antioxidant properties, providing youthful skin and sealing in natural moisture.

Use a mattifying agent

The mattifying agent is a magical product for oily skin. The primary objective of applying a mattifying agent is to reduce oil production to prevent the skin from becoming oily and too shiny. The mattifier can be a light powder, or a matt lotion, balm or moisturizer. They should help absorb sebum, reduce fat, shrink pores, and minimize blemishes.

Don’t forget the eye primers

To keep your makeup firm even around the eyes, wearing an eye primer can be a godsend. This is because eye primers prolong the life of eye makeup and also prevent wrinkles.

Spray the heat with a cooling mist

For your face to be smooth and shiny throughout the day, hydration is important. A refreshing mist does just that in a more efficient way. A fine spray of mist can quench your skin’s thirst and restore balance, adding an attractive glow.

Put on refrigerated sheet masks

At the end of the long day of partying, be sure to give your full attention to your nighttime skincare routine. Remove your makeup at night. Starting with a refrigerated fabric mask will relax your face and provide it with hydration. Aloe vera or cucumber masks can be made at home and then stored in the refrigerator to cool before application. You can also put almond cream or lip balm.

Nothing ages the skin like exposure to the sun. When we go out in the sun, our face becomes dull just after a few minutes and sun exposure robs us of the glow. So if a few minutes could do that much, imagine what a lifetime of sun exposure could do for our skin!

Collagen production slows down after a certain age, which causes the skin to age and becomes thinner and weaker. Fine lines, wrinkles and dull skin are starting to dominate! Hence, it is essential to upgrade your essential beauty products and research the right products for your skin type after research. Evolve towards products that promote cell regeneration, collagen production and strengthen the skin’s natural defenses.

While a few fundamental skin care ingredients have become easily recognizable names, retinol is continually crucial to the discussion. We’ve all heard of it, but many of us aren’t sure what it is or how it works.

When it comes to reversing premature aging, active ingredients like retinol and glycolic acid get a lot of airtime. A retinol, if applied properly, has the power to prevent fine lines and wrinkles, lighten dull skin, treat acne, shrink pores, and possibly fade dark spots.

So basically it stretches and speeds up the “cell recharge”. Routine application can bring you closer to younger looking skin on a noticeable level. But let’s not forget about the side effects they come with, to name a few – dry skin, redness, itching, rashes, sensitivity to the sun, and many more.

That’s why the best bet is to switch to Bakuchiol. The safer and equally effective alternative to herbal vitamin A and retinol.

Billed as an effective alternative to retinol, bakuchiol originated in India. It is a plant commonly used in Ayurvedic medicines to heal, calm and soothe the skin, due to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It also has roots in natural Chinese medicine.

The impregnation of Bakuchiol into the skin triggers the genetic pathway in the skin cells to create several

types of collagen useful for healthy skin.

Bakuchiol is a potent herbal extract derived from the leaves and seeds of the Babchi plant and is vegan. It has gained momentum lately in the skin care arena for all good reasons. Exceptional for smoothing fine lines and providing unparalleled softness, Bakuchiol is a hydration treat for all skin types. It is also a fantastic collagen booster!

Bakuchiol is a deeply regenerating and anti-aging formulation suitable for use – both morning and evening. In the active day phase and the regenerative night phase, Bakuchiol works with the cycles of your skin. It doesn’t sacrifice skin health while providing the benefits of reducing the signs of aging and can be used every day, morning and night.

Since Bakuchiol is safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin, it is precisely in this that it is much better than retinol. It does not cause any irritation even on sensitive skin.

If your Instagram feed has suddenly been inundated with videos of people getting slapped, pounded and massaged in the name of beauty, you have to thank Inge Theron for it. The former beauty writer founded FaceGym, the massage-focused face bar beloved by celebrities like Bella Hadid, Jasmine Tookes and Lizzo, after discovering the transformative power of facial massage and muscle stimulation.

“I realized that if you don’t actually stimulate the muscles, no topical ingredient can [dramatically] help you when you are approaching your 30s or 40s, unless you do the job, ”says Theron Charm. “So for me it’s about treating the muscles in your face like you treat the muscles in your body.”

Theron thinks that great skin is a combination: half the “big assets” and half the way you apply products. “When I think about cleansing, I don’t think, Oh, I’m just going to cleanse or remove the dirt from my skin,” she explains. “It’s: great, I’m going to use my phalanx. I will increase circulation. I will boost my collagen and also tone, firm and lift. And you know my eyes are a little bit sketchy so I’m going to deflate them and sculpt my cheekbones. Everything is done while I cleanse my face.

Theron discovered facial massage while traveling the world as a spa writer in her mid-30s. She says she had access to “any facial under the sun,” but was always disappointed with the results which didn’t last. However, she was also not ready for something more permanent like injectables, so she looked for what else was there. “I went to Mexico; I worked with Inca healers,” she says. “I went to Japan. Basically I traveled the world and realized that facial massage and manipulation muscle mass dates back a thousand years: the Empress of China used pressure points for her beauty routine.

And that’s how in 2016, FaceGym was born. “It took something that was already established, proven, but made it cool and sexy,” says Theron. “It was just a lot of research and then working with really talented people. I have a great team of master trainers. We have designed this concept of warming up, cardio, modeling, recovery, just like you train your body in the gym.

Obviously, her routine is heavy with massages and treatments, but she also relies on an ever-evolving line of products for her combination skin. It also targets dryness, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging, but tries to keep a positive attitude about it. “I laugh a lot. I live a lot. When I was younger, before FaceGym, I was very worried about it. But now I realize that I worked so hard to get those lines around my eyes. She said. “I didn’t dance on a table in Ibiza until 4 in the morning not to have these lines. Now I feel so comfortable with them, that they are who I am.

“You have to own it,” she said. “At some point you also have to say, ‘You know what? I spent most of my youth worrying: is my butt too big in my jeans? Or do I look old? And then at some point you leave, that’s the best version of me. I did all I could, and that’s it. Take it or leave it. This is the only advantage of getting older: you become more confident.

Below, Theron shares what’s in her current rotation for CharmGive up the routine.

My cleansers

I really am a seasonal skin care person. I treat my skin like I treat my body: I ​​don’t eat pumpkins in the summer; I eat asparagus. Right now, since I was in the sun, I am using FaceGym Electrolytic Cleanser because it has a really nice formulation. It has a slight papaya extract for hyperpigmentation. It contains electrolytes, which is not found in any other product that I have found. It’s really great for energizing. I also have larger pores, especially during the summer months. It is therefore an extract of red clover, which has been patented. The results on pore closure are incredible. It is so soft that it does not damage the skin barrier. Right now I’m using it morning and night just because I have this prolonged hyperpigmentation right now and it’s really, really helping me. I tend to use September to treat hyperpigmentation and dark spots, both in my FaceGym studio and with my skin care.

Many Seattle residents took in a lot of vitamin D during our unusually dry and hot summer. However, when we see ourselves in the mirror or in Zoom, many may discover that we have gained more than we bargained for – including fine lines, darker spots or spots, and dry, rough skin.

Dr. Kate Dee’s program at Glow Medispa in West Seattle is filled with people concerned about the effects of sun exposure in recent months. “It can be difficult to look at yourself on a Zoom call and see damage you haven’t noticed before,” she says.

A major concern after summer: sunspots. Also known as liver spots, these rounded, droplet-shaped, and flat pigmented areas build up on the face and hands and add years to a person’s appearance. Often times, sunspots tend to build up on the left side of the face, where the skin is exposed to the rays through the driver’s side window, Dee says, especially if you’ve spent time in sunnier climates like the Florida or Arizona.

The sun and summer heat can exacerbate existing skin conditions, such as rosacea redness and broken blood vessels on the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead. Or melasma, which are larger brownish spots on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip, and chin.

And while a leather look is great for handbags, it’s not for faces. “At the end of summer, too much sun results in dry, scaly skin, which has more wrinkles,” says Dee. Athletes, gardeners, and other types of outdoors can struggle with the dry more than others.

If a brand new lesion has appeared this summer in a new location, it’s best to visit your dermatologist’s office for a quick assessment, she warns. But for most problems, a Seattle skin care professional may have the anti-aging solution.

Treat summer skin

Dee’s approach is based on a holistic assessment of the skin type and underlying conditions. While skin care products and in-office procedures can work together, some problems can’t be treated with topicals alone – melasma, for example, and multiple sun spots. “It’s hard to progress with just skin care if someone has a lot of sun damage,” says Dee.

In-office treatments tend to be more effective in these situations. Dee’s office relies on three main approaches.

Peel: Good for all skin types and a good fit for those with sun spots, melasma, and acne. A gentle exfoliating chemical is applied to the face. Within a few days, the surface of the skin begins to peel away, taking with it any pigmentary damage. “In a week, the skin is really different,” says Dee. “Our peels are very effective and safe for all skin types.”

Broadband Light Photorejuvenation (BBL): BBL uses a machine to zap targeted brown and red pigmented lesions. Typically, dark spots form on the surface and then begin to dry out after a few days, revealing fresh skin. This treatment is suitable for many people with lighter skin types and / or younger people whose concerns are limited to color and tone.

Laser treatment: Soft laser energy resurfaces the skin, stimulates collagen production and reduces fine lines, wrinkles and sun damage. Often a good choice for those with multiple forms of summer skin problems and those concerned about anti-aging and prevention. With this treatment, patients experience slight redness of the skin for about 24 hours and a sandpaper-like skin texture for up to seven days, but it is not a visually noticeable treatment like a peel. The laser resurfacing treatment is safe for fair to medium skin tones.

Treatments generally take place over three sessions, as the best results and patient comfort only require a portion of skin renewal at each visit. The recommended treatment depends on the skin type, the skin conditions involved and the individual. For example, someone who cannot help peeling the skin would not be a good candidate for a peel – it must be left alone or the scarring could adversely affect the result.

The skin type is based on the production of melanin, which also acts as sun protection. Some of the worst sun damage is seen in fair-skinned redheads, Dee says. Those with darker skin should be especially careful in the office of any skin care professional, notes Dee. For people with medium to dark skin, careless use of BBL or lasers can leave hyperpigmentation (darker spots) or hypopigmentation (intense lasers kill pigments, leaving white spots).

After the series of procedures are completed, topical creams can help preserve the results of the procedure, but staying out of the sun is essential. Ideally, affected clients learn how to protect the skin and maintain the fragile, resilient barrier. Dee recommends exfoliation of skin cells, along with vitamin C and antioxidant treatments to build collagen and fight sun damage. Layering moisturizer and sunscreen during the day provides continued defense, and using retinol at night helps fight aging.

Most clients are concerned about the post-summer face, but the hands are often the next to receive BBL treatment. Hands often don’t get as much sun protection as other parts of the body, Dee says, so hands can appear more visibly wrinkled, dry, and sun-stained, unlike a newly rejuvenated face.

“We have a lot of tools and can accommodate anyone,” she says. “We can find an effective and viable solution to skin care problems, even those that you don’t think you can do much about. “
