For a long time I did not understand why after applying concealer the skin around the eyes looks worse than before. It turned out that I was not properly preparing the skin for makeup.
Good day, beauty! Glad that they looked at my channel. I am Oksana and I want to share with you the competent advice that I learned from the makeup artist. I'll also tell you about an inexpensive eye cream that works well for me.
Now a series of video and photography has begun in my life, and I often have to do professional makeup. The makeup for the shoot is very different from the usual. All redness and imperfections are visible in the spotlight. Makeup artists carefully mask everything, not sparing tones, concealer and powder. It looks good on camera, but not very much in reality. The bruises around the eyes, of course, are not visible, but there are more than enough small wrinkles.
I asked the makeup artist why I look older with makeup and where do a bunch of wrinkles come from that didn't seem to exist. She explained that such makeup is stressful for the skin and needs to be properly prepared.
Slaughter moisturizing or patches vice versa
The face needs to be thoroughly nourished and moisturized with your favorite mask. And on the skin around the eyes, the makeup artist recommended applying a super moisturizer and covering it with patches on top. I was surprised that the patches should not be applied before the cream, but on top of it. But I decided to try.
I took the cream from the brand MeiTan with apple stem cells. I like that it moisturizes well and visibly brightens the skin around the eyes, but at the same time it is quickly absorbed and does not leave a greasy film.
I applied the cream and, until it was absorbed, closed it with patches. I took the most budgetary ones, I just had a couple of semi-dry patches lying around - these were exactly what I needed. I lay there for 20 minutes and went to the mirror to evaluate the result.
The skin around the eyes really became completely different: it was nourished, the wrinkles were gone, the circles from lack of sleep became barely noticeable and the overall appearance became noticeably fresher. The method turned out to be working.
In this case, it is the cream that works, and the patches simply enhance the effect, prevent moisture from evaporating and help the cream to give all its useful substances to the skin. And it is not necessary to take a super-expensive cream - mine costs 630 rubles and is not inferior in quality to luxury.
By the way, if you are not familiar with MeiTan, I advise you to look at them, now the brand is active Promotion "Heads and Tails" for new consultants. There are collected cosmetics from Malaysia, India, Taiwan, Russia, Israel, Thailand, Korea and China. If you register as a consultant, all products can be purchased with a 33% discount. And they also give gifts for purchases during the first three months.
Now, when I go to makeup, I use the “reverse patches” method: the concealer lays down like clockwork, does not emphasize the flaws. And after make-up I restore the skin with the same method. The main thing is to do this at least two hours before bedtime, otherwise there may be swelling. And if there is no filming, I make myself such a mask twice a week to keep my skin in good condition.
Thank you for visiting my channel.
Best regards, Oksana
