Problem Skin Foundation

Problem Skin Foundation

Due to problems with ecology, poor heredity, unhealthy diet and abundance of junk food, lack of sleep and other “charms” of modern life in a big city, many girls have skin problems. Cosmetologists and doctors present statistics according to which only eight or ten out of a hundred women have skin that can really be proud of. The rest constantly have to deal with unpleasant and unaesthetic manifestations on it.

Pimples, acne and comedones require special care and treatment. And it should be carried out comprehensively, from the inside and outside at the same time. It is necessary to focus on nutrition, rich in vitamins and nutrients, the consumption of a sufficient amount of fluid during the day. There are special medical and caring masks, tonics and creams that form a decent care for the problematic dermis in everyday conditions.

But the treatment can take quite a long time, and you want to be beautiful with perfect skin right now. In this case, concealers, powders and, of course, foundation creams come to the rescue of the fair sex. A lightweight and weightless BB remedy is unlikely to help hide particularly pronounced problem areas. Manufacturers of dermal foundation creams with existing flaws promise excellent coverage of sore spots and care, preventing the further emergence of new problems.

Of great importance in the care and quality make-up of the epidermis is the correct choice of toning product.

Features

Ladies who are not happy owners of an ideal skin, need to approach the choice of tonal means very scrupulously. After all, skin with severe problems will react painfully to stimuli and be hypersensitive to the components of the composition. At the same time, it should have sufficiently pronounced properties of matting and toning.

Let's look at the properties of the tonal product, which are necessary when using for problematic skin.

  • One of the required properties This tone should be hypoallergenic. The particular sensitivity of the problem dermis requires a composition that does not provoke allergic manifestations, irritations, redness and inflammation.
  • The texture should be fairly light.so that the cream is suitable for enlarged pores. A non-clogging cream is called non-comedian. If he does not have this property, the remnants of the cream in the skin pores will attract impurities and prevent sebum and sweat. Because of this, inflammation, acne and black spots will become even more.
  • Together with the ease of texture the tone should be fairly dense. The composition, hiding irregularities, can be a salvation for the face with severe problem areas, inflammation, acne marks and black dots. A professional product that provides a durable coating may have a particularly good coating ability. With good overlap of irregularities and deficiencies, the composition should not form a mask on the dermis and be impermeable to air.
  • SPF factor as protection from the harmful effects of sunlight is welcome for such products. Foci of inflammation and sensitive epidermis must be particularly protected from ultraviolet radiation. Also, this rule is suitable when applying the cream in the area around the eyes.
  • Components with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effectsare also a huge plus for creams of this type.They allow not only to hide problem areas, but also to treat inflammation.
  • For fat and mixed epidermis the content of matting ingredients would be helpful. They will not only remove oily shine, but will also regulate the production of sebum by the dermis. For this you can perfectly use natural oils and plant extracts, such as chamomile, St. John's wort or tea tree.

In the conditions of summer and winter time it is necessary to select the appropriate properties of the product. For the hot period, cosmetics should have increased protection from the sun, and for the winter chill, a variant with protection from cold and wind is well suited.

It is necessary to select a tool with a mark of compliance with the type of the epidermis. This will most accurately level all the flaws. Of course, the sticker on the package is not a guarantee of quality. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the composition of the selected product.

Composition

Among the ingredients of the foundation there will necessarily be substances that make its texture comfortable to use and comfortable to wear. Pigments, providing a dense coating and natural skin tone, are also required for such cosmetic products. But besides this, products designed to care for problem skin should be safe, and even better, useful for the epidermis.

Let us dwell in more detail on the safety of the product. Best of all, if he will have a natural composition. But these products on the shelves are not so much. To find an organic foundation, you have to work hard. But even if the cosmetics contain artificially created ingredients, it should not contain harmful substances, especially contraindicated in the sensitive dermis.

  • Most harmful substancewhich can be found in the composition of the tone is aluminum. Less commonly, it can be found in matting cosmetics. Scientists have proved that falling on the skin, this element has an unpleasant property to accumulate in the cells. Further, a high concentration of aluminum in the tissues of the body can provoke the formation of cancer tumors.
  • Silicone - a very common substance in tonal products. And you can find it in the budget and premium products. Because of its presence in the composition of the cream forms an impenetrable film on the surface of the epidermis. The skin stops receiving oxygen, moreover, it can not get rid of excess moisture. Heat and moisture provoke the growth and reproduction of bacteria and microorganisms, which are one of the causes of inflammation and acne.
  • Another substance with a negative effect is propylene glycol. It is "famous" for causing allergic manifestations. It can also absorb water, depriving the skin of moisture. Its effect is unpleasant in combination with silicone. Because of its allergic activity, propylene glycol provokes the appearance of microtraumas on the skin surface, and bacteria that multiply due to a silicone film actively use this. Through microcracks and blemishes, they can penetrate into the depths of the epidermis, causing deep inflammation and suppuration.
  • Glycerol, obtained not from plants, but synthetically, can affect the skin like propylene glycol. In this case, the substance derived from vegetable oils acts on the skin just fine.
  • Talc Should not be present in healthy organic cosmetics. It is able to absorb water and lipids, depriving the epidermis of moisture and protection. May cause the first manifestations of dryness and wilting of the skin.

For oily problem skin is better to use fat free mineral cream. It may not contain fats, and may have volatile silicones. They evaporate from the surface of the skin, leaving pigment particles and useful elements.

Dry skin can be applied and non-volatile silicones, which will create a breathable coating on the dermis, allowing it to receive oxygen, without giving away moisture.

Natural glycerin is very useful for the epidermis, it has a powerful moisturizing effect.

It is good if the foundation for problematic derma contains natural vegetable oils and extracts, vitamins and amino acids, antioxidants. These substances will nourish the epidermis, repair and fight the signs of aging.

Often added to such cosmetic products grape seed extract and green tea, vitamin complexes. Licorice extract and quince help control the production of fat by the skin. And tea tree oil, chamomile and hypericum extracts have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects.

Dry skin needs slightly other care products. These are moisturizing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, glycerin, vitamins A and E.
