Collagen and Pre-Makeup Skin Care for a Flawless Face

When it comes to makeup, we all know that removing it completely and treating your skin well after you wear it is important… but what about before you put your makeup on? Prepping your skin before makeup is just as important as cleaning it up nicely before bed. There are a few easy steps you can take before putting your makeup on that will help your skin stay fresh and healthy.
- Protect your skin from the inside out with Beauty Tonic collagen. Beauty Tonic contains collagen types I and III, the two types your body uses to support and regenerate your skin. By our mid-twenties, our collagen regeneration begins to slow and our skin starts to form wrinkles and lose its elasticity. By sticking to a consistent Beauty Tonic regimen, you can help your body provide your skin with the collagen it needs to stay youthful and healthy so that your makeup applies well and doesn’t cause your skin to break out as easily.
- Cleanse your skin. You never want to put makeup on skin that hasn’t been thoroughly cleaned because that will only trap dirt and bacteria in your pores for the whole day. Naturally, that is sure to cause acne and lots of clogged pores. Cleanse with an unscented facial soap and make sure that you don’t use anything that will dry out your skin.
- Moisturize! Regardless of what skin type you have, your skin needs to be moisturized well before you apply makeup. Lotion helps your skin retain its elasticity and protects it from the makeup drying it out. Don’t be afraid to be liberal with the lotion but keep in mind that fragrance-free lotion is best for your face, even better if it has vitamin C in it to help rejuvenate your skin and prevent blemishes.
If you take good care of your skin, your skin will reward you by being effortlessly beautiful with or without makeup. Healthy, well-cared-for skin makes applying makeup and feeling good about yourself so much easier. With Beauty Tonic and a good pre-makeup routine, you can be sure your skin and your makeup will look great.
