The person burned down? What to do?

Even if now outside the window there are rains, the summer already comes. And it means – the sun can seriously do much harm to your skin. And after rest in the fresh air or works at the dacha you should go to work with a burned face. But if a coat hanger can be disguised a blouse, then the person demands special abilities.

Of course, the most important council is to think of prevention. That is not to forget about funds from SPF. To use these means every day and especially if you are in the sun.

But if trouble after all happened, and your person burned, then try to apply simple councils to disguise redness.

The first step. Calm skin.

Aloe – your friend who will help to calm skin and to humidify. Use detergent, the moisturizing cream and tonic which have aloe juice in structure. In general, for summer it is possible to buy some popular series with an aloe, it is useful in hot days. For example, the The Body Shop Aloe series has the gentle detergent, protective serum, tonic moisturizing means in structure.


If purchase of a similar series is not in your plans, you can each ukhodovy means enrich with aloe juice, having added it at application when you have to calm the "burned-down" person. Aloe juice also carries out the good moistening role, the dehydrated person literally drinks all moisture from the upper layers of the skin.

The second step. Color correction.

Do you remember a color circle? What color best of all masks redness? Green. You for certain know it also without color circle because you have green primers or concealers. The redness from a solar burn can be disguised greenish soil too.

Make Up For Ever (Step 1 Skin Equalizer Redness Correcting Primer) have such green primers, Clinique (Clinique Redness Solutions Makeup SPF 15).


If you have no greenish primer yet, create it independently, having added to usual soil a few lime opaque shadows (without sparkles) or a green concealer.

The third step. Toning with SPF.

The biggest mistake – to try to paint over a burn, having completely covered a face with foundation. If so to make – that opposite, you will draw more attention to a problem. Instead of covering a face with dense foundation, take light BB cream with the good SPF level. BB cream has the good moistening properties, "adapts" to tone of skin and along with it has as a part of much the protecting and calming ingredients (vitamins, antioxidants and so forth).

You need BB cream which is 1 tone more dark than your natural shade of skin. If you do not have it – add a little bronzer to the "winter" BB cream.

It is good if the SPF level is from 30 and above, your skin very needs protection against undesirable new damage against sunshine now. Such creams are at Oriflame (Skin Dream BB Cream SPF30), Maybelline (Dream Fresh BB Cream SPF 30), Garnier (Ambre Solaire BB Cream SPF 30).

The fourth step. The moistening proofreader for eyes.

Do not forget to correct skin under eyes. Now it is very strongly dehydrated. And the usual concealer can dry up it. Add generous amount of cream for eyes in the proofreader, and illuminate skin under eyes. You will close dark circles and swell. And moistening will not allow the proofreader to look as cream on cake.

The fifth step. Powder.

Mineral powder is ideal for the burned skin. It also has to contain the SPF filter. The friable translucent option – will facilitate a condition of skin and will correct a greasy luster. The mineral structure will help to calm skin and to prevent irritations.

The sixth step. Bronzator.

When the person "burned down" in the sun, many decide to refuse the bronzing powder. Fears that the bronzator will accent face reddening, - are vain. The bronze tone on cheekbones, on the contrary, will disguise reddening. It is necessary to take the opaque bronzing powder, without luminescence and to add several strokes on cheekbones and a chin.


Protect the face from the scorching sun, but if you accidentally get solar burn – now you know what to do.
