FIRST AND FOREMOST | Taking good care of your skin makes a difference in your final look more than ever as we age. We have enough fine lines, large pores and rough skin as it is and adding a dry dull canvas to those issues isn’t necessary. So adding a good exfoliant and a retinol serum to your routine is a MUST!
Using Makeup to Hide Fine Lines, Wrinkles & Puffy Eyes
Here are tips and techniques to use that help your skin look smoother and younger with makeup!
DEEPER LINES AND TEXTURED SKIN | Apply our Line Smoother + Primer on any fine lines and textured skin. We call this product our needle-free Botox! Squeeze about a pea size out and apply on your forehead, crows feet or any areas that need more help. Use your finger to pat it out. You’ll see an immediate blur as well as treating those areas with anti-aging botanicals which helps provide longer term benefits. Apply this product with the roller ball under your eyes for a cooling massage before your routine too.
PRIME PRIME PRIME | Using a lightweight & hydrating primer helps keep your skin from looking dry as well as blurs some of the fine lines and pores. We recommend our Anti-Aging Face Primer. It’s loaded with the botanical Cassia Angustifolia which helps your skin retain moisture all day. After applying a pea size to your face, you will notice the burring effect and fall in love!
• EXFOLIATE & MOISTURIZE
• ALWAYS APPLY PRIMER BEFORE MAKEUP
• APPLY LINE SMOOTHER PRIMER ON AREAS THAT NEED MORE HELP
The Concealer Expert®
UNEVEN SKINTONE | Did you know that dark spots show your age more than wrinkles? Making those disappear will help you look years younger! Using our AMAZINGCONCEALER in the shade that matches your chin line, pin dot on age spots, blemish scars, dark circles and any area that is discolored and pat in. AMAZINGCONCEALER is so concentrated that a tiny amount does the job.
PUFFY EYES? | We’re proud of our iconic hero, the AMAZINGCONCEALER, for a myriad of reasons and one being how it helps reduce the appearance of puffy, tired eyes. We’ve added Cucumber Sativas Extract as cucumbers are well known to treat dark circles and puffy skin. Due to the high-water content, they have hydrating capabilities. They also have antioxidant properties and are soothing to the skin. Puffiness causes a shadow line starting at your inner corner. Taking that shadow away, makes the puffiness less noticeable. Using our precision Concealer Brush, stripe a tiny amount on that shadow line and pat in.
• DARK SPOTS SHOW AGE MORE THAN WRINKLES
• A TINY BIT OF CONCEALER GOES A LONG WAY
• REDUCE PUFFINESS BY TAKING AWAY SHADOWS
Need Help Finding Your Shade?
FOUNDATION OR NO? | After you’ve primed and concealed, you might not need foundation. Don’t use product if you don’t need to! If you do need foundation, using a wet sponge will help dilute your foundation and thin out the formula. Once you’ve applied with your sponge, go back and pat it out with your fingers. Patting with your finger tips after a few minutes smooths down the product. We LOVE our SMOOTH® Crème Concealer & Foundation Duo as it does what the name says, smooths your complexion! If you choose not to wear foundation, consider using our Illuminate Primer Highlighter in one of our 3 complexion boosting shades. It offers a subtle hint of color along with a slight illumination that helps hide imperfections as well as deliver spot lightening daisy extract!
DO YOU NEED COLOR CORRECTOR? | You might if your dark circles, spots, scars or birthmarks are 3-4 shades darker than your complexion. You may need that extra coverage. Our correctors come in 3 shades each with 2 colors that keep those pesky undertones hidden whether you’re super fair, medium or dark complected. Simply apply a pin dot of the color that addresses the undertone you want to get rid of and apply concealer on top.
• DON'T USE PRODUCT IF IT'S NOT NEEDED
• USE A DAMP SPONGE TO EVENLY BLEND FOUNDATION
• APPLY COLOR CORRECTOR OVER PESKY UNDERTONES
WE'RE EU COMPLIANT!
What Does EU Compliant Mean & Why Is It Important To You?
We were an early internet start-up and understood that because our only retail channel was e-commerce at the time, we knew we had to work under a global mindset. We looked to Europe as our benchmark for excellence. We understood their standards for cosmetics and what ingredients were allowed for use, which were superior to most other countries including the US. Animal testing is forbidden as well, and we certainly don’t believe it in either. Europe bans close to 2K ingredients. The process to be able to have a product approved for sale throughout the EU is intensive, time consuming and honestly costly but something we’ve never regretted doing. Read more here.
