HOW MAKE-UP MAKES YOU AGE FAST


Looking good is good business. At the moment we are in a world where your life is judged by how great you look in your Facebook or Instagram pictures. Being selfie-ready is the order of the day even amidst men. There is a constant expectation to look your best all the time. Trust me, I am a big fan of beauty and will not kick against looking good all the time but being beautiful all the time comes with a price. Producers of make-ups have been telling women of how a little foundation and dash of mascara can liven up your face instantly. It is a big truth but applying it every day can have several harmful side effects on your skin and body. These days we even see make-ups that transform a person’s look entirely. Thumbs up to you makeup artistes. Scroll down further to read about some of these side effects.



PREMATURE AGEING
This is very common amidst women especially when they are off makeup. When you use a particular skin product for a longer period of time, the chemicals present tend to permanently damage your skin. With time, you begin to see ageing signs like wrinkles or patchiness on your face and body. Makeup definitely helps to hide or cover flaws in your skin but its effect could be counterproductive.

SKIN DISCOLORATION
Sincerely, you can trust me that this is very common amidst women. Skin products like toners, moisturisers, sunscreens and creams contain agents that bleach or darken your skin. Avoid cosmetic products with poor quality or have not been regulated. You could experience common effects such as pigmentation, redness, patches, uneven skin and freckles. Although your skin is meant to protect you, it is also very sensitive and needs to be taken care of. Avoid the daily use of chemical products to your skin because they could result to a permanent damage to your skin. Reducing the use of cosmetics and switching to natural or herbal products will help you avoid these effects.


ACNE

Your skin is as vital as any other organ of the body. It needs to breathe and grow. Some types of makeup which are in the form of liquid and creams clog the pores in your skin thereby; leading to the formation of blackheads, which when not cleaned regularly could form acne. This is a very common side effect amidst women. Ensure you clean your makeup thoroughly with a natural cleanser before going to bed.

SKIN ALLERGY
There are common chemicals like Parabens and Salicylate. Parabens include ethyl-paraben, isopropyl-paraben and butyl-paraben are all used as preservatives to prevent bacterial growth in cosmetics. They can cause various allergic reactions like skin irritation, blemishes on the skin and blotches while Salicylate can cause an outbreak of painful rashes or hives if you have a sensitive skin. In most cases the allergic reaction are not apparent until the symptoms becomes severe.

Trust me, this are not just the only side effects of makeup, I will be coming up with some other effects that will really shock you. Visit our contact page for more info.
