Daniel Bauer’s Top Tips On Dewy Makeup

Dewy skin indirectly symbolises good health and an active lifestyle. The skin’s fresh and radiant appearance is a feature most women dream of having - but only a handful boast of. There are two ways to achieve dewy skin - the natural route or with the help of makeup. The first option requires you to make some serious changes to your diet and exercise plan. Time and patience are both needed from your end. With makeup, however, dewy skin can be achieved in less than 5 minutes. The best part? You have Celebrity Makeup Artist, Daniel Bauer, to help you make your dreams come true!

What Is An Astringent?

An astringent is a type of liquid skincare product designed to help reduce excess oil and shine. They may also help minimize the appearance of enlarged pores (though it’s worth noting that nothing can actually shrink your pores).

Generally speaking, most astringents are made with high concentrations of alcohol, which can be drying (especially for those with dry or sensitive skin). However, there are also alcohol-free astringents made with ingredients such as witch hazel. They’re milder than their alcohol-based counterparts but also less harsh on the skin.

Astringent vs. Toner What’s the Difference?

The difference between astringents and toners lies in their ingredients and purpose. Astringents, as mentioned, are typically alcohol-based and designed to reduce oiliness. Toners, on the other hand, are often alcohol-free. They can also help address a wider range of concerns, from dryness to dullness and discoloration, depending on the formula.

The L’Oréal Paris RevitaLift Derm Intensives 5% Glycolic Acid Peeling Toner, for example, helps remove dead skin cells, smooths skin texture, and diminishes the appearance of dark spots over time. It’s alcohol-free and fragrance-free and suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin. We suggest using it twice daily after cleansing to help support a fresh, glowing complexion.
