Get Red Carpet Worthy Skin
Monday, March 8th, 2010
Whether or not you watched last night’s 82nd Annual Academy Awards, unless you live under a rock, you have most likely seen a celebrity or two in your life via the internet or gossip magazines. We’re award show junkies at Facelogic and we love to check in and see how beautiful the stars look at every event! While we definitely get excited about who wore the best dress and who looked like a mess, we love to see who is ‘looking old’ and who has the most beautiful skin and makeup.
You can imagine our excitement last night when we saw the likes of Sandra Bullock, Meryl Streep and Sarah Jessica Parker looking gorgeous, age appropriate and with beautiful, flawless skin! What’s the secret to looking beautiful as you age? Keeping your skin in shape! While you can opt for (and many stars do) less natural treatments involving injections, there are many less expensive/less invasive options that will certainly do the trick. Celebrities have to look camera-ready at all times and they do this by getting regular facials and exfoliation treatments and sticking to a good skincare routine and healthy diet (plus they have some very talented makeup artists prepping them for these soirees).
Want to look like a star? There are plenty more affordable ways to get glowing, healthy skin on a budget! Here are some tricks to try at home:
- Incorporate exfoliation treatments - exfoliation treatments help to slough off dead surface skin cells and make way for brighter, new skin to shine through. Depending on your skin, you can exfoliate 2 to 3 times per week.
- Moisturize and protect – hydrated skin will give off a more dewy-supple look and adding SPF to your skincare routine everyday will ensure that you are fending off the sun and protecting yourselves from sun damage (which leads to fine lines and wrinkles).
- Add a little color - whether or not you are going to the grocery store or for an evening out, adding a touch of tinted moisturizer, foundation of powder will give you a more flawless complexion and make you look awake. Plus when you throw in a bit of mascara and blush, you’ll be looking ‘ready to go’ in no time and these 3 products will take under 3 minutes to apply!
There are plenty of skincare tips that the stars use to always look great, but routine skincare (starting with washing your face daily) is the best place to start. The more you focus on exfoliating, hydrating and protecting your skin, the longer you can fend off the signs of aging.
Embrace your age! If you need a little help…we’re always ready to pamper you!
