Beauty Tips For Body Care
Reapplying suncreen.Before, I would put a tinted SPF on in the morning (Skinceuticals physical fusion 50), and not touch my face until I washed it at night. I always felt like I was being "good" for wearing sunscreen in the first place, and didn't get why my sunspots and rosacea would still get worse in the summer even though I never lay out (anymore, sigh).The first thing I did was drop my Skinceuticals and look for a straight up sunscreen, rather than a tinted moisturizer with SPF. I did this because it is summer and I want something to stand up to sweat, which Physical Fusion is not the best at. I was scared to do this, because covering up my sunspots and redness were the reason why I opted to go tinted in the first place. I bought several, being the Replenix SPF 50+ Sheer Physical from Dermstore***, the Shiseido wetforce, and the CanMake Mermaid Skin. I mostly used the Replenix (which is amazing if you apply it over thin moisturizer for some "slip"- BUT it doesn't do well with extreme sweat. Shiseido is best for that). For security I also bought the Missha Perfect BB Cream which is PA+++, and would put a dot of that OVER the sunscreen if my cheek redness was acting up.My new schedule is: I now put sunscreen on in the morning when I wake up, and again about 6 hours later. For my second application, I wash with an oil cleanser and reapply to clean skin. I personally do it after 6 hours because at that time in my schedule, I have to go outside in the hot sun for several hours every day without fail. I used to avoid reapplying because I never went as far to wash the first layer off, and it felt gross to have two layers on.And HOLY CRAP. My skin is glowing like never before, my rosacea is much better, and some faint cheek hyper pigmentation I have always had is over 50% gone. At first I was self conscious about forgoing the tinted spf, but now I do not feel that I even need it. I truly think it comes down to reapplying, and doing it right before going to be outside in the sun. I will also never use a thin tinted SPF like Skinceuticals in the summer time again, as it simply does not cut it.
