Ramadan could take a toll on your skin, think weary-looking dehydrated skin! Help is at hand from Vaseline ambassador Huda Kattan. The lady behind the Huda Beauty blog is sharing her top tips to keeping your skin hydrated and your face looking fresh. Go on and try them out!
1. Opt for a Blemish Balm Cream
Not only will it keep your skin looking clear, but most of them are actually good for you. I always look for one with an SPF as well as one that can brighten and protect the skin! They are like a tinted moisturiser with added benefits.
2. Mineralise as much as possible
I try to only use mineral makeup during Ramadan. Not only is it light, but it is free of any harmful chemicals, which means your skin will be able to breathe. You will look gorgeous and your face will love you! MAC has some great mineral makeup and the colour selection is great!
3. Use products that are good for you
The last thing you need during months when makeup should be minimal and light is products that are bad for you. I love using primers and mascaras that have vitamins since they can actually make your lashes thicker! I can't live without my Dior Show Primer, my lashes have not only multiplied, but they are longer and thicker from using it.
4. Trade in your lipstick for butters
Our lips tend to get dry super very fast during the month of Ramadan! Of course wearing bright or glossy lips is a big no no. I like to use Vaseline Petroleum Jelly mixed with home ingredients under nude lipsticks or tinted lip balms since they keep your lips hydrated, but also add a hint of healthy colour to your face. My absolute favourite lip tints are the Rouge Coco Shine from Chanel. The colours are light and it feels amazing on!
5. Go easy on the eyes
This month try to keep your eye makeup light! You can always skip the liner all together and use shadows instead since they are really light. One thing I like to do is use a shadow on the outer corner only and in a small amount, this will give you a little life without being too obvious.
6. Keep your skin hydrated
Water goes first to your organs and your skin gets jipped in the process. I always keep a bottle of Vaseline Total Moisture Cocoa Glow handy. Use it right when you leave the shower and it will not only seal in moisture, but add that extra bit of hydration which our skin needs during this month!
7. Drink super hydrating liquids
I always opt for things like coconut water (natural, no sugar added) after iftar since it can help replenish the skin's moisture which is lost during the day when we can't drink water. It won't get rid of your thirst, but it will help your skin a lot.
8. Deal with skin disorders or naturally dry skin
One of the best things you can do is apply Vaseline Petroleum Jelly to your skin before bed time, especially to those dry areas like elbows & knees. Simply apply it overnight and wash off lightly in the morning or wipe with a wash cloth with lukewarm water.
9. Load up on antioxidants
Try loading up on berries when you can since they are super strong in antioxidants. I love goji berries and try to drink acai juice as much as possible. You only need 1 fl oz per day and even with the fasting, your skin will have a healthy glow.
10. Remember to go natural
Try to use as many natural face masks this month. These products are light on the skin, but very effective! One of my favourite things to do is use yoghurt and honey and apply it to my skin for 15 minutes before rinsing. It will help balance skin oils and repair your skin’s health.
