1. Never Skip Removal
The importance of makeup removal can never be skipped past. No matter how late it gets, makeup must be removed, especially before sleeping otherwise it will accumulate on the skin which can clog pores and lead to breakouts.
Swirlster Says: Remove yours with the Maybelline Total Clean Eye & Lip Makeup Remover costing Rs 239 from Rs 300. Shop here.
2. Find The Right Fit
Finding makeup that works for your skin type is incredibly important. Since you're wearing makeup more often at this time of year, the right makeup will work more cohesively with your skin to last longer and feel more comfortable in it.
Swirlster Says: For oily skin, try the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation costing Rs 399 from Rs 500. Shop here. For dry skin, try the Revlon Colorstay Makeup costing Rs 1,250 from Rs 1,450. Shop here.
3. Hydrate A Little Extra
To make good on the hours you aren't hydrating your skin, make sure you give it an added dose of nourishment whenever possible. Do this by drinking a lot of water through the day, moisturising before applying makeup and using a hydrating face mask when possible.
Swirlster Says: Give your skin the benefit of the Julep Triple Quench Sheet Mask costing Rs 2,849 from Rs 4,452. Shop here.
4. Wash Your Brushes
As makeup is a constant companion during the holiday season, ensure it goes on smoothly and hygienically. Frequent usage of your makeup brushes means more makeup and skin cells being collected in them. The only way to reduce the risk of skin infection is by cleaning your brushes regularly.
Swirlster Says: Use the House Of Quick Makeup Brush Cleaning Mat costing Rs 499 from Rs 999. Shop here.
5. Scrub Away
It's possible for excess oil, makeup and debris to get caught in your pores, even after you cleanse your face. You can fix this by scrubbing your skin thoroughly on a regular basis, depending on the type of skin you have.
Swirlster Says: Use the Aroma Magic Mineral Glow Scrub costing Rs 158 from Rs 175. Shop here.
Now you can carry on partying without worrying about your skin too much.
