It’s mid-December and the party season is in full fling. The Budget is out but we still need to have fun and look great! We’ve been flat out working with you and so many celebs around town.
Our makeup experts work with models and TV stars so we really understand how important it is to cover up those late-night shadows and chase away the odd spot or two.
There are a few simple tricks to remember and you’ll shine all through the festive nights.
- Always wash your face!! Use wipes if you have to but please please clean all the products off your skin. A gentle product like Cetaphil or one of the Clarins range is great. Get some more suggestions over at Beaut.ie
- Invest in a specialised eye-makeup remover. The skin around your eyes is very delicate. Dragging strong cleansers over it is a no-no. Try MAC Pro-Eye Makeup Remover or Kiehls Supremely Gentle Eye Makeup Remove
- Once a week use a mask like this Botanics Sensitive Skin Soothing Face Mask
- Drink lots of water; it hydrates the skin and keeps that glow glowing. And it helps the kidneys which will reduce those dark under-eye shadows.
- For emergency spot treatment use a product like Panoxyl 5% benzoyl peroxide and dab that on under your foundation or at night
- Conclears will be your new BF. Apply under the eyes but not all the way across – start at the inner eye and bring out about half-way. Try a product like Benefit Oh-La-Lift as a brightening primer underneath.
And of course we are open right through the season on Dame Street in Dublin. Pop by and see us for some more advice or a complete makeover. Read about our Christmas services in this post.
