5 Benefits of Going Make-Up-Free

1. Clear complexion without flaws

No more enlarged pores. Smooth complexion. No more congested skin! Most girls fail to remove products like bronzer or blush thoroughly. The make-up residue, dirt and pollutants build up in skin pores, making the skin break out and get oily. If you let it rest from make-up it has a chance to bounce back and clear the pores.

2. Goodbye, zits!

As we already said, make-up products congest the skin and clog the skin pores, which obviously triggers acne breakouts, including adult acne. If you apply make-up foundation and powder using dirty brushes, then you encourage the bacteria causing acne. In other words, you encourage the breakouts instead of healing the skin. That is why not wearing make-up prevents acne.

3. Rested look without puffiness and dark under-eye circles

I know some of you will be taken aback: make-up products don’t only cause premature wrinkles but may also trigger itchiness, eye irritations or even more serious issues like conjunctivitis. We are often the wrongdoers because we use expired products or we trust cosmetic makers believing the products are gentle because they are designed for eye area… but they are not. This gentle area – the eyes and skin – may react to many ingredients.

4. Optimally-moisturized skin

Do you know that many foundations dehydrate the complexion? To make things worse, many of you take them off carelessly so the residue has the entire day and night to dry out the skin. So, when you stop using make-up, you relieve your complexion and it is no longer so dry. Remember that make-up hinders the natural skin repair process. Once you give up on make-up and choose conscious care, your skin will quickly rise like a phoenix from the ashes!

5. The end of skin allergies!

What make-up ingredients cause allergic reactions? Unfortunately the list is long. The skin reacts to many of them. Many pigments in make-up products are allergens which may irritate the skin, cause redness, itchiness as well as acute inflammation. No make-up trend definitely busts the risk of allergies.

What do you make of it? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to make the face look flawless without make-up? To apply foundation because you want to, not because you need to camouflage zits, hyperpigmentation, imperfections, etc. I love the no make-up trend! I can finally see what my skin really looks like without layers of products and colors. I enjoy incorporating new skincare treatments – the weeks without make-up give a chance to renew the epidermis using chemical peels. Currently you can perform them easily at home. Up for a peel?
