There is no girl or woman on this planet that hasn’t read in a post, email update or magazine about the celebrity looking skin or even seen it on a red carpet event. Celebrities skin just GLOWS.
I’m always searching for new beauty products, I love to take care of my skin not only because obviously we all want to age beautifully but because beauty is a subject that I find extremely interesting and fascinating.
On this post I’m sharing my favorite products for getting the amazing revitalized skin we all want. In other words, CELEBRITY LOOKING SKIN. Please consider your current skin conditions. If you currently suffer any skin condition like acné, rosácea, dermatitis or any other, these products won’t make that condition dissapear. You will have to speak to your dermatologist first and once your skin has reached it’s complete health and balance then you can consider my recommendations. Also it’s important to analyze your skin type. I have normal to dry skin, these routine and products have positively impacted my skin and I will definitely continue to use them. Hope you can relate to me and find this tips helpful too. I do this routine when I have a special event the next day like filming a video or a photoshoot. First:
CLEANSE AND EXFOLIATE
Before anything I cleanse my skin with JOSIE MARAN CLEANSING ARGAN OIL. If you follow my blog you already now this is one of my favorites. If you are new you’ll soon notice it too. After I cleanse my skin, I proceed to exfoliate it. I love the CUP O’ COFFEE EXFOLIATING MASK from Lush Cosmetics. It has (for me) , a very strong coffee smell, you’ll feel like you’ve just being dipped into a just brewed cup of coffee, literally. Apply it all over the face but the eye area, leave it for 15 minutes and as the minutes go by, you’ll start to feel a tightening sensation all over your face.
TIP:Before applying this mask, I like put it on the fridge for around 30 minutes. Then I apply the cold mask to my face. The cold coffee sensation on your skin will be explosive.
APPLY STARSKIN VIP MASK-THE GOLD MASK
I bought several masks from Starskin in my latest trip to Amsterdam. I have being wanting to try these masks for quite a long time. They’ve won several skin awards, but to be honest, I need to try the product and then give my verdict, before believing it really works. Finally found them at the airport, so I did not hesitate and bought them.
To apply the mask follow the instructions on the back of the golden envelope. Once you open it, you’ll see the mask has 3 layers. The layer in the middle is the one you’ll apply into your skin. It will be easy for you to identify the correct one. The layers on both sides are very texturized, while the layer in the middle is plain.
Distribute the serum through the entire mask. I personally add a few of the leftover serum on the extra layers into my skin and then apply to mask. Make sure no wrinkles are left on your face. Leave the mask for 20 minutes. Remove the mask and massage the remaining product onto the skin until absorbed.
This mask is perfect for dry skin skins. The evening primrose and coconut oil on the mask will contribute to keep your skin smooth and hydrated.
NOW GET SOME BEAUTY SLEEP! The rest of the products, you will apply them the next morning.
JURLIQUE ROSEWATER BALANCING MIST
Once you wake up and wash your face, gently dry it with a clean towel and spray several spirits of Jurlique Rose Water Mist into your face. The scent of roses combined with marshmallow extract is insanely comforting and refreshing. This mist will help your skin prepare to absorb all hydrating products you are going to apply. It’s also amazing to set your makeup.
JOSIE MARAN WHIPPED ARGAN OIL FACE BUTTER
I’m a huge fan of Josie Maran and her Argan oil products. I’ve being using them for quite a while and they worked perfectly for my dry skin. I also love they’re made of 100% organic and natural ingredients. This product not only features Argan Oil, it also has cucumber seeds oil and shea butter. All ultra hydrating components. My skin feels super soft. Looks healthy, hydrated and glowy. This product is so noble, you can also apply it under your eyes.
TIP: Next you can apply Josie Maran Argan oil. I do it because I have dry skin but if your skin is oily to combination I will skip this step.Once your skin care products are set into your skin apply your makeup. Apply a primer if you need to first.
PHOTO FINISH HYDRATING UNDER EYE PRIMER
I have always struggled with my under eyes. I spent a lot of time on the computer and most of the time, I don’t get enough sleep. So for me it’s crucial a brightening product for my under eyes. Once I discovered this pink undertone primer, believe me undereye game totally changed. After applying Josie Maran whipped Argan Oil and let it set, I proceed to apply this primer. It has a it’s charged with caffeine and peptides which contribute to reduce puffiness and darkness, both checked on my primary issues list. Then I’m ready for concealer.
Once your makeup is all set, you can go back and sprit some more Jurlique Rose Mist to set your makeup.
Hope you love this routine and skincare products as much as I do.
Chao Chao,
