For someone, the problem skin is redness, enlarged pores and pimples, the other considers problem skin in the "black spots". Qualitative foundation for the problem skin can effectively mask any of the above imperfections.
Composition of foundation for problem skin
Speaking about the composition of tonalki for problem skin, we note that it is qualitatively different from the composition of the usual masking agent. Namely, it always contains anti-inflammatory components.
Ideally, a foundation for the problem skin contains synthetic dyes, together with preservatives should not! Pay special attention to the label:
- "Will not clog pores" - does not clog pores;
- "Oil free" - does not contain oils;
- "Non-comedogenic" is non-comedogenic.
Remember that it is extremely undesirable to choose for a problem skin tonalku from acne based on oil, as it clogs the pores, prevents the skin from breathing. The most harmless are the oils "sunflower oil" and "mineral oil".
Tone for oily skin should not contain components such as "lanolin" and "isopropyl myristate". Preferably the tone for the problematic skin on a water basis. Micronized ("micronized") particles in the cream, clogging the pores, too, should be avoided.
Types of foundation for problem skin
Of course, by definition, a foundation for oily skin should not only mask acne, redness, but also treat the skin, improving the color and adding haze.
Conditionally all tonalki from acne can be divided into several categories, namely:
- liquid - intended for all types of problem skin;
- cream (cream powder) - for problematic dry, combination and mature skin;
- on the basis of oils - for dry problem skin;
- on a water basis - for oily problem skin.
In the textures, foundation creams concealing acne can be divided into:
- matte ("matte") - acrylic creams intended to create a natural make-up without greasy shine;
- velvety ("velvety") - masking agents capable of giving the skin a matte radiance;
- shining ("high-shine") - tonalki giving the skin a glow effect from the inside, the color turns bright;
- Shimmering ("luminous") foundation for oily skin is a make-up base that is applied to the face in front of the masking agent.
