SkINcArE????????? WhaT tO do

"HAVE A DIVA-licious DAY"

I love this video and wanted to share it with my readers.  I always stress the importance of skincare.  It was my grandmother who first told me the secret to looking young later in life.   She always cleansed her skin and used moisturizer daily.  The other advice she gave me that was of great importance as well was never to go to bed with your makeup on.  This one act alone will save you years off the face.
I was told that going to bed with makeup on can age the skin by 10 years!!!!!! WOW just think 10 years can be taken off you face just by following simple steps 1. cleanse morning and night.  2. moisturize morning and night.
Today we have so many products to choose from for this so just do your homework and find what works for YOU.  My grandmother used Ponds cold cream and vasaline and nothing else.  At the age of 104 she had barely any wrinkles at all.
Remember YOU only get ONE face, so treat it well.

Cleanse well my friend,

MeChelle

"HAVE A DIVA-licious DAY"

Winter-Licious Foundation

  Makeup Foundation for Winter Throughout the year, our makeup needs change just as our wardrobe needs change. Winter is a notoriously hard time of year for the face, which is often the only part of our bodies that are exposed to the elements. Foundation should be considered to be your second skin, only better, so using the right tools can help keep your face looking fresh and natural through the coldest winter months.

During winter, the skin tone can be quite different than it was during the summer months. In order to keep your face looking natural, always choose a foundation that closely matches your skin tone throughout the year. In winter, our skin tone tends to be at its palest, so make sure to test a foundation before you buy it. Try a small amount on your skin and let it set for a couple of minutes, and look at the results in the best light available. Testing is important even if you feel you’ve got a perfect match in the bottle because the natural acid in our skin can change the tint of the foundation. If you tend to experience dryer skin during the winter months, try out a foundation that advertises hydrating properties.

Moisturizer is an essential part of your makeup routine during the winter months. Keeping your skin hydrated will prevent your skin from drying or flaking. Ideally, your moisturizer or foundation should include sunscreen, especially during winter, when the sun can be quite harsh. After your moisturizer is set, apply concealer as you need it. The concealer should also match your skin tone, and it can help hide the appearance of dark circles under the eyes or red blemishes. Finally, apply the foundation lightly with your fingertips. The goal is to use a small amount or all over coverage, which helps keep the face looking fresh and healthy. Remember, you can always add more in areas where you need it.

At DivaGlam Cosmetics we offer Mineral and Liquid Foundation loaded with moisturizers and vitamins to help protect and put back into the skin what nature has taken away. It is also during this time of year when a switch from powder to liquid may be recommended.

  Custom blended foundation is also a route you may consider taking as well, we make the foundation to match your skintone exactly. That means for you that it is YOUR FOUNDATION no one else will have the color since it is created especially for you and you alone.
