The expert gave tips on collecting beauty cosmetics on vacation

Vacation packages often turn into an attempt to fit all the usual care into a cosmetic bag. As a result, half of the products remain untouched, and the skin can react to climate and water changes in a completely different way than at home. Maria Verichenko, head of SOKOLOV BEAUTY, told Izvestia on May 11 how to assemble a really working beauty kit for a trip and not overload the care.

The main principle of a vacation cosmetic bag is its functionality and adaptability to conditions. On a trip, it is not the amount of funds that is important for the skin, but a stable base that will help it cope with external factors: the sun, wind, dry air or high humidity. Therefore, the base should be assembled from universal products that cover the key needs of the skin.

The basic set starts with a gentle cleansing. On vacation, the skin comes into contact with SPF, sweat, salt water and dust more often, so it is important to choose delicate gels or foams that cleanse but do not break the protective barrier. The next mandatory step is humidification. Serums or a light moisturizing fluid will help maintain skin balance even in unusual conditions.

The doctor was not licensed to perform the procedure, and the cause of death could have been a reaction to painkillers.

Special attention should be paid to SPF products. This is a key product in any trip, especially when it comes to a warm climate. Sun protection not only prevents photoaging, but also helps to avoid dehydration and hypersensitivity of the skin.

"On vacation, care should be as clear and stable as possible. This is not the best time for experiments and complex multi—stage rituals: the skin is already adapting to new conditions," the expert explained.

At the same time, you can safely abandon some of the usual means. On vacation, you rarely need dense textures, aggressive peels, or active ingredients that can increase skin sensitivity. It is also not always justified to take several types of creams or serums with you — most often one well-chosen option is enough.

"It's a common mistake to take all the care with you "just in case." As a result, the skin is overloaded, and half of the funds are simply not used. It is much more effective to choose four or five really necessary products and use them regularly," the specialist noted.

It is worth considering body and lip care separately. A light moisturizer or milk will help maintain the skin after the sun, and lip balm will protect against dryness and cracks. Lips and body are often underestimated, although they are the first to react to climate change.

It is also important to consider the format of the funds. Travel versions or pouring into compact bottles can save space and make the cosmetic bag more convenient. This is especially true for short trips where there is no need to take full-size groceries.

"The perfect makeup bag for a vacation is not about minimalism for the sake of minimalism, but about an informed choice. When each product performs its function and is actually used, care becomes easier and the skin becomes more stable," Verichenko added.

Pediatric dermatologist Valeria Bognacheva told Izvestia on April 29 that children's skin requires especially careful care, but some actions that have become familiar to many parents may, on the contrary, worsen its condition. The doctor attributed frequent washing with aggressive products, insufficient skin hydration, overheating, wearing tight or too warm clothes, and using unsuitable diapers to risk factors.
