Pre-Makeup Rituals for Stunning Looks for this Party Season!


Summer is the best time for partying! You can fully explore fashion with the shining sun overhead and warm evenings of joy. How can you be party-ready this season? By finding a long-lasting foundation for mature skin? Or some other makeup product for your sensitive skin? 

Well! Your makeup alone is not enough to make you a stunner. Why? The secret weapons for long-lasting makeup for summer or any other season are the ‘Pre-Makeup Rituals’! The rituals are the backstage heroes for your radiant exhibition. So, it is always wise to prep your skin beforehand for those unforgettable moments.

Know Your Skin Type First!

Before you dive into the world of pre-makeup pampering, it's crucial to know your skin like the back of your hand. Why? Because understanding your skin type is the secret sauce to a flawless look. Dry skin tends to feel tight, flaky, and in need of constant hydration. On the flip side, oily skin can be a shining beacon, often prone to breakouts. Armed with this knowledge, you can tailor your pre-makeup rituals to cater to your skin's unique needs, ensuring your party look is nothing short of perfection.

Glowing Skin for Dry Skin Beauties - Pre-Makeup Rituals for Dry Skin

Dry skin can be a tough trial for a party season. But with the correct skincare steps for dry skin, a radiant complexion comes within your reach. The following pre-makeup rituals can do wonders to prep your dry skin for the party look:

Cleansing that Doesn't Strip

Dry skin needs cleansing, but a gentle one. Any mild, calming, hydrating cleanser can work. Go in for organic products (that are free of sulphates and parabens) that cleanse without stripping away precious skin moisture and oils. For specific concerns of mature skin, be careful while choosing cleansers. Go in for a nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich cleanser that checks ageing skin dryness.

#Tip: Remove the dirt and other impurities using gentle circular motions on your skin. Also, give it time; do not rush while cleaning your skin.

Rich Hydration Combats Dryness

Hydrating masks and toners provide rich hydration to your skin, making it soft and supple. You may use a 5-minute mask enriched with nourishing ingredients like aloe vera, vegan oils, and organic goodness to soothe and rejuvenate your skin. Wild-crafted hydrating toners can further protect and prep your skin for the party makeup. 

Moisturisation Replenishes Dry Canvas

Moisturisation is a must for a dry skincare routine. Lightweight, nutrient-rich formulations are good options as they do not clog your pores. Additionally, enjoy the luxury of organic face oils for an extra layer of nourishment. A multi-functional serum oil is a superfood skin supplement that gives you dewy skin for smooth makeup application. So, hydration makes your skin glow like never before.

Oil Control for Oily Skin Perfection - Pre-Makeup Rituals for Oily Skin

You have oily skin, and you want to shine without looking greasy. It is tricky but not impossible. You should follow the proper pre-makeup rituals to prevent excess oil and achieve a flawless look.

Thorough Cleansing

Oily skin calls for an effective cleansing that is the cornerstone for oil control. The cleanser must not be laden with toxic chemicals as they may strip off the traces of precious skin oils and lead to over-drying. A cleanser with hydroxy acids, anti-oxidants, glycolic acids, and other essential nutrients can soothe and balance sebum production. AHA cleansers with oil-free formulas are very effective for gentle exfoliation, and they help with effective skin renewal, too.

Toning Skin’s Texture 

Using a toner for oily skin is good as it minimises enlarged pores. It protects the skin from clogging and improves its texture. Select toners which are cruelty-free, beeswax-free, and with natural ingredients like lactobionic acid or salicylic acid to keep excess sebum at bay.

Balanced Moisturising

Oily skin must be moisturised, too. A lightweight, non-greasy moisturiser promotes the health of the skin's dermis without clogging the pores with its greasy residue. Such attempts for oil control ensure a perfect party look that lasts long.

Universal Pre-Makeup Steps - Steps for All Skin Types

Some pre-makeup steps or rituals are beneficial for all skin types.

Mask Up

Masks make your skin a smooth canvas for allowing make-up application to glide on effortlessly. Opt for nourishing, hydrating, detoxifying masks that minimise your pores and make your skin look plump.

Eye Care

Face moisturising is not enough to replenish the delicate under-eye area. Give a special treatment and adequately hydrate the area. This helps prevent your concealer from creasing and forming fine lines. Opt for a good eye cream or eye serum rich in peptides, ceramides, amino acids, etc., for this sensitive area, as it brightens your overall look.

Gua Sha

Sculpt your face using a Gua Sha tool. When used with a facial oil-infused rejuvenating or multi-vitamin-infused face serum, it can reduce puffiness and stimulate blood circulation, providing a radiant, party-ready glow.

General Tips for All Party-Ready Skin Types

Apart from makeup, there are some more things to consider if you wish to have a long-lasting glow.

  • Healthy Diet: Practise a healthy and balanced diet as it directly impacts your skin’s health. Consume proteins, fruits, vegetables, etc., as they provide essential nutrients to develop the ultimate glow. Tomatoes, avocados, and fatty fish are skin-loving nutrients.
  • Hydration: In order to promote skin renewal, it's important to drink lots of water and get adequate sleep. Hydrated skin is necessary for maintaining a youthful appearance.
