Tips on choosing makeup…

serious-skin-care-mineral-makeup-2.jpg<

There are a few tips you should know when buying makeup such as foundation…
1. If you have oily skin: buy oil free foundations from Prescriptives or Clinique
2. If you have very sensitive skin, you can try Almay products although no makeup is 100% proof that you won’t have a skin allergy.
3. If you have melasma (brown blotches on your cheeks), try using covering make up such as Dermablend. You can find them in Department stores such as Dillard’s, Macy’s…
4. If you have acne, try to stick to no makeup or, oil free makeup. There are some brands such as Neutrogena that have salycilic acid which in turn helps reduce acne a little.
5. If you tend to get sun spots or you hate to reapply sunblock during the day over makeup, there are some makeup powders that have sunscreen. Brands such as Philosophy and Color Science are some examples….

Have a nice week,

Dr. Welsh
