Homemade Skin Cleanser

As I promised, here is great recipe for homemade cleanser from Make up artist Lucia.

We decided that this month will be dedicated to skin care.
  
First part from our series has been already published , in case you missed out you can find it here.

Homemade Cleanser Ingredients:
 

Don’t trust chemicals? Here is a tip on a homemade cleanser for all skin types.

Homemade cleanser ingredients:

- 1/8 cup ground almonds (use coffee grinder for grinding)
- 2 tablespoons of milk
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice

Almond oil is a rich source of vitamin E that gives your skin the proper nourishment. 

Milk is a natural cleanser that leaves your skin look fair and smooth. Lemon not only cleanses but also retains the natural skin complexion. 

However be careful with acidic products like lemon juice. Stronger acidity turns product into a peeling agent!

Once you try it, we would love to hear from you.
Leave us a comment and let us know, how you like it!

Wish you "Stylishly Embroidered" day:)

Healthy skin Formula

Have you ever wondered why your make up doesn’t last? 
Do you have breakouts, dry patches or redness? 

Let’s talk about Skin Care.

It is very important to know your skin type. Accordingly, you choose products for oily, dry or combination skin.  Before applying any make up make sure you prepare your skin. Here is an easy step by step guide how to prepare your skin for make up application.  

 Wash your face with clear lukewarm water. Apply cleanser which suits you best. There are a lot of forms of cleansers on the market, I personally prefer gel form. Apply gel on wet face in circular motion, rinse thoroughly. (Cleansers with grape or cucumber extracts work wonders) Dry your face with soft cotton towel.

Tone. Toner helps closing open pores, it gives your skin healthy dose of what it needs to look younger, fresher and smoother. There are toners to suit every skin type. 

Exfoliate if required. Exfoliation is very important for skin’s recovery process. It gets rid of dead skin cells and impurities clogging pores. Gentle exfoliation is recommended once a week. 

Moisturize well. I recommend you ladies to go to skin specialists for skin mapping. This will tell you your skin type and recent condition, so you know exactly which products to use, including moisturizers. 


This routine is called CTM. Cleanse, tone, moisturize. 

Make sure to always remove make up and other impurities and bacteria from your face before sleep for healthy and vital skin!

Stay with us for Homemade Cleanser for all skin types !!!!!

I can proudly announce, that I have teamed up with talented make up artist Lucia who will take care of content dedicated to make up.

Lucia  is professional make up artist with positive energy and enthusiasm who acquired her knowledge from  London College of make up.

If you have any question or suggestion what you would like to read about , feel free to mention it under the blog within the comments..


Couple of words from Lucia:
What does makeup mean for you?
Ever since I was a little girl I would do make up for my dolls and later girlfriends.I think it is an absolute necessity for every woman and a great tool to accentuate the beauty.I can’t live without.


What is the minimum every lady should have in her pouch?
Definitely a tinted moisturizer, good mascara and a lipstick.



Your perfect trick for a night out?
Lashes, lashes and again lashes.

Make up by Lucia:

Do you always follow latest trends?
I do follow trends, it is important for me as a professional to know what’s new and I just love to browse blogs and magazines.However for my clients I always recommend to consider their skin tone and overall look before trends.

Have I mentioned special effects? This is something :)

Winning photography from the competition with Lucia's touch. See the six packs there? Yes ,that is it.





Why should women visit a makeup professional?
Makeup artists have a different perspective when assessing your face. We consider skin tone, undertone, face and eye shapes as well as skin condition of each client in order to use the right product, not to mention the tricks and ways how to smother weaknesses and accentuate the strong points. 
Women leave with boosted confidence and knowledge on how to bring this great feeling back on:)

Meet Lydia Espin - Facial Guru in Dubai

Hey guys ,

Let me introduce you one of the best facial therapist, I have ever met in my life.She is not only friendly and nice to people, but she definitely knows what she is doing and how to do it right.

Lydia Espin is a young woman and entrepreneur in Dubai that got courage to open her own beauty salon and as far as I know she is doing great !

Believe me opening your own business especially in Dubai is not such easy going thing.

                  "Always have your vision in mind and keep going until you get there."

I know you had won couple of awards as a skin and facial therapist in Dubai. Could you tell us what is your “key” to success?

 When starting your own business, there are many difficulties to overcome, but never give up and I believe that if you want something passionately you will achieve it. As a facial therapist, always stick to your high standards and never cut corners. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes, accept them and learn from them but it is very important to always give your own personal best to everything you do.


You have been in Dubai for a quit long time working as a facial therapists ,salon manager and owner of ESSA beauty, what do you think that clients need to see and experience in beauty salon to be willing to become a loyal customer?
Excellent customer service, highly trained staff, highest standards of hygiene, excellent treatments. Clients want to go to a salon that they can trust.



Is there someone who you admire when it comes to the field you working in? 
So many people have inspired me through my beauty career, from my colleagues and managers I have worked with, to the training I have received, and also seeing other people in the beauty industry achieve wonderful success. 
However, I would have to say though my biggest inspiration was from my college tutor, she was very professional and only accepted the highest standards and I think that because I was taught this at the very beginning of my career it has always stuck with me. Education and training is so very important.





What are your future plans?

I’m not 100% sure right now but hopefully continued expansion – we have just expanded our team to include another skilled facial therapist – but perhaps the longer term plan would be to open another Essa Beauty.
