Why is it beneficial to resign from applying make-up?

Hello girls!

Some time ago, many women resigned from applying make-up for a few days to boast about their natural complexion on Instagram. Unfortunately, I’m not such a brave female, therefore before I leave home, I always apply a concealer, a powder and a mascara. If there is a big event on the schedule, like a job interview, a date or a family gathering, I additionally apply a foundation, eyeshadows and an eyeliner. Nevertheless, I totally understand the girls who decided to hashtag their naked faces. Definitely, the greatest winner in this situation is their complexion which finally got the well-deserved rest. If you also want to learn what changes take place in your skin when you don’t cover it with the colour cosmetics, I encourage you to run a simple experiment. For a few days or even weeks put aside all your foundations, powders and other colour cosmetics. What will you gain?

RADIANT COMPLEXION

Do you know that colour cosmetics clog skin pores, encourage wrinkles and make skin dehydrated? Because of them, your face skin can’t breathe freely, and as a consequence, the dermis has to welcome blackheads, acne and discolorations. If you, even for a very short period of time, resign from applying make-up, your face skin will gain time to regenerate. It’ll start purifying itself, skin cells initiate the self-renewal processes and the general state of complexion will improve. You’ll see that after a while your skin becomes beautiful and healthy again. Just imagine how beautiful will look a make-up applied to the flawless skin.

MONEY AND TIME

For me, it takes more or less 15 minutes to apply the morning make-up. What about you? Just think how much time you’ll gain thanks to resigning from applying colour cosmetics. These valuable minutes can be devoted to sleeping, laying in the bed, consuming a balanced breakfast or any other activity you normally don’t have time to do in the morning. Also, if you resign from applying make-up, you’ll save up money that you can spend on cosmetics of a better quality than the ones you already have. Basically, instead of spending the money on regular make-up products, you can buy new clothes or a ticket to the cinema.

LESS STRESS, MORE JOLLIES

If you have the occasion to sleep a little bit longer than usually, and if your skin activates the self-renewal processes only because you stop applying make-up, then you are a lucky girl! Beautiful look and more sleep have the tranquillizing action. As a consequence, we feel more relaxed, we don’t have to worry whether we manage to apply make-up and arrive at work on time or not (again!). Finally, you don’t have to check whether your face shines in an uncontrolled way, or whether your eyeshadows and lipstick are still in their places. When you come back to applying make-up, you’ll see that it brings you a lot of joy as the make-up will look outstandingly.
