Preparing Your Skin for Makeup: Key Steps and Recommended Products

A well-prepared complexion is the secret to flawless, long-lasting makeup. Before applying your first product, it’s crucial to care for your skin so it’s smooth, hydrated, and radiant. Explore this guide to discover six essential steps and recommended products for an impeccable beauty routine.

Step 1: Gentle Cleansing

Start with a deep cleanse to remove impurities and excess sebum. The Cleansing Foam is perfect for this step. Its creamy texture purifies the skin without drying it out, leaving it fresh and ready for the next steps.

Step 2: Gentle Exfoliation

A gentle scrub removes dead skin cells and restores your skin’s glow. The Scrub Mask combines the benefits of a mask and an exfoliator for smooth, radiant skin. Use twice a week for a smooth canvas.

Step 3: Hydrate and Tone

After cleansing and exfoliating, apply a hydrating toner to soothe and prepare your skin. The Moisturizing Lotion deeply moisturizes while providing an instant refreshing sensation.

Step 4: Boost with a Serum

Serums are essential for addressing specific skin concerns such as hydration, firmness, or radiance. Choose a serum suited to your skin type and apply it with gentle massaging motions for better absorption. Don’t forget your neck!

Step 5: Care for the Eye Area

The skin around the eyes is very delicate, so using a targeted eye care product is vital to reduce signs of fatigue and hydrate this sensitive area. Makeup applied afterward will sit better on hydrated skin. Dab the eye care product gently with your ring finger and allow time for it to fully absorb.

Step 6: Moisturize with a Cream

Finish with a moisturizer to nourish your skin and create the ideal base for makeup. Choose a formula tailored to your needs for soft, makeup-ready skin. Proper hydration ensures smoother makeup application and better staying power.

Additional Tips for Perfect Skin

• Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water to keep your skin moisturized from within.
• Use clean tools (like brushes) to apply your makeup products. Depending on usage, wash your brushes weekly or monthly to prevent bacteria buildup—your skin will thank you!
• Avoid touching your face throughout the day to ensure your makeup stays in place.

By following these steps, you’ll achieve prepared, radiant skin that’s ready for long-lasting makeup!
