THIS IS HALLOWEEN

Why do we celebrate Halloween and how do I protect my skin from evil spirits?

Everyone should have noticed that summer is officially over. The trees are turning their leaves, it's getting colder outside and more comfortable at home. Almost everyone looks forward to Halloween in the fall. But where does Halloween actually come from and what is the best way to care for your skin after Halloween?

''Halloween'' has Irish origins from the Celtic festival of Samhain. Samhain means ''end of summer'' and was celebrated on the eve of November 01st. The deceased are said to come back to earth on this day and visit their families. The Celts celebrated this festival with sweets and lights to welcome the deceased. However, some Celts feared that the deceased would seek revenge on them, so they dressed up in supernatural and spooky disguises to ward off the vengeful, returning deceased.

HOWEVER, WE KNOW HALLOWEEN AS AN AMERICAN TRADITION. HOW COME?
Halloween only came to America in the 19th century, the Irish emigrants brought their customs and culture with them and this is how the custom originated in America. In the 90s, Halloween came to Europe for economic reasons: the candy industry jumped on the Halloween train and the market exploded.

Today no one - except our Laura from the graphics department - believes that vengeful spirits are walking the earth on this special night. So why do we still dress up and make up for Halloween? The first reason is certainly the fun of dressing up, partying and being scared. Carnival is the best example that we are always up for a costume party! On the other hand, it's probably the case that we're seeing Halloween more and more as a new custom that somehow "belongs". But with all the fun, the next day's skin can look just as spooky as your nighttime costume. To avoid this, you should apply a mattifying face cream before applying make-up and allow it to absorb well. This not only protects your sensitive facial skin, but also improves the durability of the make-up. It is important that you use high-quality make-up because this make-up is skin-specific and does not irritate it too much. For fake lashes and artificial scars, you should use a water-soluble adhesive. Then apply a setting spray or powder so that the make-up lasts all night.
The party was nice, you're exhausted. But when you come home after the Halloween party, you must not do without thorough make-up removal. Remove grease-based make-up with a special oil-based make-up remover. Please be particularly thorough when cleaning, because your skin has already had to endure a lot and longs to be able to breathe again.

When you're done removing makeup, you should take care of your pores. To do this, cleanse the skin three times, preferably with the CLEANSER INTENSIVE, as it removes dirt and debris. In addition, it allows the remaining fats of Halloween make-up to flow out. Then generously FRESHNER apply followed by ALOE VERA GEL. So that the skin gets new drive and momentum again, then that SKIN AWAKENING SERUM incorporate. From level 5 we recommend the NIGHT REPAIR CREAM. It stabilizes the skin, improves hydration and supports the renewal of the natural protective layer. Finally that BLUE LIGHT PROTECT Use spray to protect skin from oxidative damage. As a special extra, treat your skin to another one MOISTURE LIFT EXPRESS Mask. Thanks to its hyaluronic acid-collagen complex, it can give skin moisture that can be felt for several hours. Your skin is thus supplied with sufficient moisture and is cleansed.

Now you can treat yourself to a break and go to sleep peacefully, while your skin has everything it needs to be cared for. In the next few days after the party, you should continue to give your skin plenty of rest and take good care of it.

This is how Halloween can only be a complete success!
