Skin care tips

Dry and mature skin

Rich moisturizing creams, foundations and liquids are most flattering for mature skin or skin with fine lines and wrinkles. These formulations bring moisture to the skin and plump up fine lines. In some cases, light diffusing particles in the pigments of the foundation will produce a softer-looking skin surface.

Oily and normal-to-oily skin

Sticks to oil-free formulations that are water-based contain ingredients like silicone and glycerin rather than oil. These foundations have a satiny, spread able texture but won't leave you feeling like a grease ball. Select a neutral or matte (shine-free) finish.

Normal and normal-to-dry skin

Foundations that contain hydrating elements like vitamins and botanical oils provide the ideal coverage for this type of skin. If you prefer to keep oil in check with an oil-free foundation or a water-based one (water with pigment), be sure to prime your skin first with a lightweight moisturizer.
