MAKEUP HACKS – You Need To Know (Oily Skin /Dry Skin)

OILY SKIN
oily skin is said to wrinkle less all that oil usually just turns a perfectly caked face into an oil-slick mess by lunch. Not cool! This is why you need to know how to prep and cake your face like a pro to guarantee that your makeup stays hella fresh throughout the day.
A mattifying primer is essential if you want your makeup to stay oil-proof around the clock. Firstly, it’ll soak up any excess oil that’s sitting on the surface of your skin, and secondly, it’ll blur and smooth out your pores. Stay clear of any radiance or oil-based primers as these could make your skin look greasy. Instead, look for water or silicone-based primers as these typically have a slightly thicker consistency to soften the appearance of large pores and scars.
A setting powder is crucial for oily skin as it’ll help lock in your look all day long, plus it’ll help smooth out your complexion.
Just because your skin is oily, doesn’t mean you can dodge moisturizing. Without moisturizer, your skin can get dehydrated and it’ll try to compensate for the lack of moisture by producing even more oil. However, finding the right moisturizer is key: look for a gel or water-based formula that’s non-comedogenic, so it won’t block your pores.

DRY SKIN

People with dry skin never have it easy. Be it changing seasons or dealing with skin issues, women with dry skin always face problems in dealing with it all. It becomes a task to try to find products that best suit their skin and ensure that these products don’t aggravate their skin or make it flaky. This is also why most women with dry skin don’t really prefer to opt for makeup every day as it can become hectic for their skin. So, if you’re wondering how to go about your makeup routine, we’ve got you some makeup hacks for your dry skin that won’t make your face look too flaky or cakey.

You may take a tonne of precautions to keep your makeup from your drying your skin out while applying it, but the truth is, it may all just be in vain if you don’t prep your skin with the correct skincare products. Apply a layer of a moisturising, hydrating sleeping mask the night before. This will prep your skin a night before the makeup application.

A hydrating mist or something even as simple as rose water will help plenty for people with dry skin. With all the moisturisation, chances are your makeup will apply smoothly. But makeup is inherently drying in nature. So chances are your skin might feel dry in the middle of the day. Spray some of that hydrating goodness and dab it with a tissue to rescue your skin.

One thing you must remember is that primers are a must if you have dry skin. Not only do they moisturise your skin but they also make for a smooth canvas for you to apply all your makeup on. First, apply a layer of primer to your skin, then apply foundation and so on.
