Dermatologist Shereene Idriss explains how to get smooth skin without makeup. Use glycolic or lactic acid exfoliants regularly but don't overdo it, and for oily skin try salicylic acid. Finish with chemical lip exfoliation and a rich occlusive to keep lips from chapping.
How to look good with no Makeup on from a 40 year old board certified dermatologist with no makeup on even skin tone is next to godliness. When you're thinking of looking fresh you have to have a smooth base and you get that by exfoliating. But the biggest mistake people make is they over exfoliate, inflaming their skin barrier in the process and looking red, dull and just ruddy anywhere from one to three times a week taking the time of year into consideration and your climate. Glycolic acid and lactic acid are the way to go in my book, but if you are on the oilier side you probably want to look towards salicylic acid as well. Tip number two if we're going to exfoliate this we should also think about exfoliating this because I am guilty of licking my lips and my lips are chronically in a chapped state. Exfoliating lips with a chemical exfoliating acid in addition to sealing it in with a rich occlusive ointment is going to help guarantee smoothness for a few more hours than a basic chapstick.
