Nobody walks out of their home looking picture perfect, but that doesn't mean you need a beauty team to keep you looking your very best. Often times a quick touch up is all you need to keep you looking and feeling confident about putting your best face forward. Below are some simple tricks to dealing with those sudden skin care blunders:
For Blemishes
We've all had to bear with those unexpected zits that seemingly crop up overnight. To reduce the swelling, keep re-applying a pimple-fighting treatment over the problem area while you're at your desk. And while it's best to avoid applying makeup on pimples, a tiny amount of concealer over the blemish should do the trick.
For Flaky Patches
This can happen when you’re dealing with particularly harsh weather. Just be sure to stash an emollient salve to rub into any of those scratchy and patchy spots.
For Dull Skin
If your skin seems a little lackluster, a quick midday spritz of face mister can help revive skin and freshen your base makeup.
For Redness and Irritation
An anti-inflammatory eye drop is your best friend in this situation. Not only can you use them to freshen eyes after an all-nighter, you also drip them directly onto zits to reduce the redness.
For Puffy Eyes
For eyes that are looking a little too swollen, reach out for a vial of Preparation H (hemorrhoid cream). It's one of the best ways to reduce puffiness and eye bags. Just remember to dab with discretion, or your colleagues might be wondering what you've been up to.
