The Scary Truth About Halloween and Your Skin

Halloween is here and if you are an enthusiast, you know that an out-of-the-box costume and makeup go together like candy and trick or treating. But have you heard the scariest story of the season?

Too much sugar consumption sabotages your mission for flawless skin! Plus all the heavy-duty makeup, even for one day, can take a nightmarish toll and irritate it.

HERE'S HOW TO GLOW NATURALLY WHILE ENJOYING HALLOWEEN:

CHECK THE LABEL 

Avoid products that contain harmful ingredients such as formaldehyde, parabens, phthalates, and artificial dyes. It is best to use makeup that is fragrance-free and alcohol-free. If you have acne-prone skin, you should go for water-based products to prevent clogging of the pores and breakout.

AVOID HARSH MAKEUP 

Go for all-natural ingredients-based makeup that is chemical and toxic-free. Keep it clean and natural.

APPLY A PROTECTIVE BASE MOISTURIZER

Moisturizing your skin before applying your Halloween makeup is essential for protecting your skin from dryness. Use our 2-in-1 Light Everyday Facial Lotion, ideal for oily and combination skin. It has a Vitamin-rich formula with Aloe Ferox, Avocado Oil, and Vitamins A, B, C, and E that absorbs quickly to combat critical hydration caused by sugar.

DON’T RE-USE LAST YEAR’S MAKEUP 

It is best to use new products as untouched leftover Halloween makeup from last year may cause bacteria to build up on your skin.

EAT CANDY IN MODERATION 

It’s ok to enjoy all the candy but don’t consume too much in one sitting. You can also conquer your sweet tooth with antioxidant-rich fruits and veggies such as cranberries, blueberries, artichokes, and leafy greens.

Once the celebration is over, your skin will need to recover from the pile-up of all the heavy makeup, body glue, and glitter. Make sure to remove all the makeup as soon as possible, even if you are tired, and avoid sleeping with it.

Use our Gentle Cleansing Cream a rich, hydrating formula of natural oils and Aloe gel that has a dual purpose - it cleanses and can be used as an eye makeup remover. ⁠After cleansing, revitalize your tired, and moisture-depleted skin after all the trick or treating with our Aloe & Honey Gel Mask. It has an ultra-hydrating, anti-oxidant blend with Honey and Aloe Ferox that leaves skin pristine, soft, and glowing. Leave on for 10-20 minutes, then rinse off thoroughly with warm water.
