It’s a bright morning, the sun is up in all her radiance and golden glory and the air is fresh. You are in a hurry to go to work or to school and you work tirelessly to rub your new favourite face cream (hopefully one with the freshness signature from enchanting naturals) on your skin. You cannot help but notice though, that your hand is slightly darker than the skin on your face.
You try to ignore it and go out to do your daily life. Then comes in a friend or shall we call it one of those friend-enemies who will notice the fifty-five good things on you but choose to comment on the one supposedly bad thing. Let us not focus on those toxic peeps but we all know them. So, in comes Mr or Miss Toxic with low self-esteem trying to project their self-hate on you. Depending on what country you live in or your race you may hear from them, ‘‘oh oh… Looks like your face is brighter than your body!. Are you bleaching or your cream is not working well’’ Did your tanning parlor subscription expire or it got too expensive to maintain? You feel embarrassed, angry, frustrated or all these emotions at once and you look around you, watching for how many people heard the stupid remark. You try to think of a proper response but it’s not coming forth because your brain was not expecting this negativity…
Darling, you don’t have to respond to this negativity, just walk away and remember the solution presented below in this short article by enchanting naturals.
WHY THIS HAPPENS
The face is one of the most sensitive parts of our body. The skin around the eyes and mouth for example are so sensitive that just laughing or sleeping roughly can wrinkle them. On the other hand, the creams we use often have very active ingredients like retinol, citric acid, or glutathione, meant to tackle age spots, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. This is even more serious if we use the same face cream for the body and face.
What does this mean for your beauty game then? It means that while it may take your body six weeks to remove a tan or black spots, your face will probably need only a few days or two weeks at most. So you need to learn to make this work for you.
HOW TO FIX THE WHITE FACE ISSUE
- Don’t use the same cream for your body and face. You need a mild face cream to use on your face.
- If your face cream must be very active (perhaps you want rapid results), use it every other day not daily.
- Try to use your body lotion or tan removal morning and night. (if too lazy to bathe rinse your hand and leg-smile.)
- Wear a foundation or powder that is a shade or two darker than your skin, so it blends with your body until your whole-body blends.
- Use a body scrub to aggressively remove rough layers from your body so it can absorb your cream quickly. Use a milder scrub for the face or use the scrub gently on your face. Avoid using a sponge on your face if you can.
- Drink a lot of water, eat fruits and sleep seven hours minimum to quicken your skins cell renewal.
