Intense sun exposure, glitter, and sleepless nights leave skin sensitized after Carnival. Dermatologist shares step-by-step routine to restore hydration and calm irritation.
The end of Carnival brings nostalgia, but for your skin, the aftermath can feel like a real hangover. After days of intense sun exposure, heavy makeup, glitter, sweat, and sleepless nights, it’s common for your face to show signs of sensitivity, dehydration, and irritation.
During the festivities, skin suffers external aggressions that compromise its natural protection. Removing glitter and long-lasting products, often done repeatedly, can result in sensitized skin, according to specialists.
Tips to recover your skin post-Carnival
According to dermatologist Vanessa Perusso (@dravanessaperusso), it’s recommended to avoid astringent soaps, opting instead for products with creamy textures, oils, or cleansing foams that don’t irritate the skin during cleansing.
When hydrating your skin post-cleansing, prefer creams that replenish lost moisture. Moisturizers with shea butter can help seal and hydrate the skin. She also recommends, if possible, applying a facial mask with a calming effect to reduce swelling and sensitivity.
