Esca makeup can also be categorized similar to mineral makeup as it does no contain any harmful chemicals or preservatives. There are various benefits of wearing Esca make up as compared to any other makeup products.

Esca makeup also helps protect the skin against the powerful sun. Some esca make up products are known to have high SPF ratings between 20 and 30.  Zinc oxide is a powerful agent in esca, assisting in natural U.V. protection. 

Esca does not give you a heavy mask feeling like other regular powdered make up; instead it gives you a light feeling due to the lightweight and its texture.

Instead of settling into wrinkles like other conventional powders and concealers.  Esca actually does the opposite by covering wrinkles and enhancing your skin’s tone to give you a nice and lasting glow.

You can actually sleep in Esca, so for all of you snoozers out there that just don’t know how to get out of bed, simply put your Esca make up on before bed and go ahead in hit that snooze button, since you don’t have to take an extra hour out of your day applying make up.

Esca rehydrates the skin helping you have a healthy and shiny glow.

Makeup for Different Complexions

IF YOU HAVE A RUDDY COMPLEXION

The best way to describe this kind of skin is skin that always seems to be excited; it’s a pink blush but it can also be a little splotchy. The ruddiness usually appears at the tip of the nose, the chin, the cheeks and the forehead. What you need to remember about this type of skin is that you want to even out the color, but you don’t want to lose that wonderful glow- just subdue it a bit. So use a soft beige foundation with a touch of green in it (I don’t mean a touch of green food coloring but an essence of green that compliments the other colors in your skin). You can also use the under- foundation primer that is made to even out the tones in your skin. Above all, be proud of this look- it is a friendly, radiating glow that needs only to be evened out, not erased.

IF YOU HAVE A SALLOW COMPLEXION

Sallow is a skin tone with a yellow cast to it. What you may want to do is add some color to it, but you don’t want to create a color for your face that is different from your body. So the foundation used for sallow skin must be subtle, yet effective. Use a cream with a touch of peach or a light touch of pink.

IF YOU HAVE AN OLIVE COMPLEXION

This is a combination sallow and tan-looking skin. All you need to do is use a foundation that matches your skin with a touch of rose in it.

IF YOU HAVE ORIENTAL SKIN

Oriental skin is usually sallow with strong yellow tones. A foundation With pink in it is most flattering.

IF YOU HAVE BLACK SKIN

Foundation for black skin should have some orange or red in it to give the skin a healthy glow. There are now several lines of cosmetics for black skin that contain these complimentary colors (check with your local department store). Generally black skin is attractive with many of the same colors as yellow or brown skin. And the principles are the same-be subtle, blend, moisturize, and develop a routine that best accentuates your features and minimizes your faults.

IF YOU HAVE MATURE SKIN

The most common mistake mature women make is to put on more makeup, figuring that heavier coverage will make them look better. Wrong! Older skin needs much more moisturizing plus a creamy emulsion-makeup that has more body to it and more pigment, with opaque but not mask like coverage. The worst sight is an attractive, older woman with so much makeup on that she accentuates the lines and the other aging characteristics of her skin- however minimal they may be. In this case, less is definitely more. You don’t want to put on your regular makeup in a thicker manner, because all you will get is an increased definition of the lines on your face. Wear a makeup that has more body to it, one that you will use in the same amount as you always did, but one that will now give you the added coverage you need.

Many of us are not properly caring for our hair and skin simply due to lack of knowledge, which is not your fault. On the other hand, many of us do adverse things to our hair and skin that we are aware of which are simply bad habits! Regardless ladies, if you are guilty of nay these sins, re-adjust your routine and get ready for your best hair and skin yet!

Popping Pimples!

The most popular No-No! It is natural to want acne pimples to go away fast. However, being hasty is counter-productive. Trauma and infection can result form the use of non-sterile tools (i.e. fingernails, safety pins) which slows healing. You can develop scabs, dark marks due to a lot of melanin pigment in your skin and makeup. First and foremost, do not pick or pop! Schedule to see a dermatologist to evaluate your skin. In the meantime, wash your face everyday with an over the counter salicylic acid cleanser followed by a dab of benzoyl peroxide cream to specific pimples which will quickly dry them. To deeply clean pores, use a facial exfoliating scrub every 2-3 days which help to reduce pimples and improve skin surface. For any dark areas that result form the picking, use a Q-tip to directly apply an OTC skin whitener which contains Hydroquinone 1-2%.

Not feeding your hair and skin!

Like plants, hair and skin need to be nourished from within at their root on daily basis but we have not been used to doing this. Traditionally, we have been using the topical approach which can not work within. The phrase, “You are what you eat” is very true.

However, the basic diet alone is simply not what is truly needed to support your hair roots and skin which is why you need to supplement your diet.

Not washing your hair enough!

We many all be guilty of washing our hair every 2 weeks but this is a no-no! Contrary to those believing that when your hair itches, it is growing. This is a myth and actually means that your hair root needs a wash.

Finding the right makeup for Asian women begins with choosing the proper foundation. Asian women need foundation with yellow undertones, which can be difficult to find when so many mainstream foundations feature pink undertones. The best bet is to go with a mainstream line like MAC or L’Oreal, which separate their foundations into warm (yellow) or cool (pink) undertones, or try one of the new makeup lines created especially for Asian women, such as Zhen, Thi or EX1.

Makeup Trends For Asian Women

Once you have found the proper foundation, the next trick is enlarging your eyes. First apply a neutral color from the lash line to the brow to even out any discoloration. Then add a second color which matches the first but is slightly darker or deeper, just on the lid. Blend the border area of the two colors and you’ll have a natural but enhanced look. Finish by lightly lining the upper lid on the lash line with a liquid liner or push brush dipped in cream eyeliner or dark eye shadow (if you are using the shadow, wet the brush first). Don’t worry about whether you have a crease or not, as a crease defined with eye shadow is passé these days.

Asian women tend to have sparse eyelashes, so if this is a problem for you, finding a great mascara will be a big help. Mascaras with lengthening fibers in them such as Fiber Xtension by Shu Uemura, Lorac Lotsa Lash or Jane Hi Fiber are among the best kinds of makeup for Asian women.
