Blemishes, Dark Spots and Dark Circles: Treat, Before You Cover!

It’s easy to hide under a face full of makeup, but wouldn’t it be much easier to not even feel like you need the makeup at all? You can cake it on and try and cover it up – but at the end of the day, concealing is just a temporary fix. So before you cover, prime your skin with imperfection-targeting skin care.

First, start by making a facial appointment at your local spa. This will give you the chance to have a thorough skin analysis by a licensed esthetician. They will be able to recommend the ideal products for your specific needs to jump start your skin on is way to its healthiest and most beautiful state. Too often woman say that they just have bad skin and that there is nothing they can do about it, but more likely than not they may just be using the wrong products! Putting on any old moisturizer or serum seems like you’re doing something right but it’s just covering up your skin problems and potentially making them worse! It’s important to know what your skin conditions are and to make sure that your products are designed to improve your concerns. Need help finding a qualified esthetician? See our blog post for help!

So what to look for in a multi-tasking primer/day cream? The Repêchage® Hydro-Complex® PFS,which has formulations for both dry and oily/combination skin, highlights this nutrient-richness that I’m talking about!

It also contains lactic acid, which is an alpha hydroxy acid known to help exfoliate the skin. With all of these wonderful ingredients not only is it delivering nutrients to your skin but it is treating by helping to remove dead skin cells for a smooth appearance, and exactly what we are looking for, improvement! So if your skin is looking dull there is no need to cover it, simply apply your moisturizer and treat it! There are great products that really can treat, rather than laying on the surface of your skin doing absolutely nothing and there are also a lot of multi-taskers! The Biolight™ Brightening Daytime Protection Creamnot only helps to hydrate, tone and firm the skin but also helps to reduce the appearance of uneven skin one and hyperpigmentation all at the same time. If you’re concerned about brightening, this can certainly treat instead of cover!

Also, remember that you’re skin conditions and concerns did not appear over night and they will not go away over night either. While you’re treating your skin with your fantastic skin care products and you still feel the need to slightly conceal, or if you missed some beauty sleep and are looking to hide the dark circles, try the Repêchage® Perfecting Concealer.Other concealers can clog pores and create additional breakouts, but this fragrance-free formula is nutrient-rich and contains seaweed and cucumber extract to not only help hide any little imperfection, but also help to treat at the same time!
