OPTIMISE YOUR SKINCARE ROUTINE

Do you have dry or oily skin? Dull or gloriously glowy? Whatever your skin type, you’ve probably got a routine that perfectly pairs it. Whether it’s packed with hydration heroes like hyaluronic acid or glow-enhancers like vitamin C. But to really get the most out of your skincare routine, try using makeup that also has those same ingredients – that way you’ll enjoy the benefits all day long.

But skincare lovers don’t panic – this won’t replace your skincare regime, merely add to it, helping to extend those benefits.

CONTINUOUSLY CARE FOR YOUR SKIN

HELP KEEP YOUR SKIN NOURISHED AND HYDRATED

Base makeup with skincare benefits

The biggest advantage of skincare-infused makeup is that it combines the benefits of skincare like hydration with the benefits of makeup, like helping to smooth, conceal and mattify. It's designed to target specific skin types, whether your is dry and dull or oily and blemished, meaning you can apply makeup that's almost totally tailored to you.

FAQ'S

From why skincare only makes makeup better, to whether or not it actually works under your foundation, we've answered some of the most frequently asked questions.

WHY IS SKINCARE IMPORTANT FOR MAKEUP?

DOES MAKEUP AFFECT SKIN?

IS MAKEUP SAFE FOR SKIN?

DOES SKINCARE WORK UNDER MAKEUP?

In short, yes. It helps to tackle your skin concerns, moisturising any pesky dry patches and creating a smooth base for your makeup so that it applies evenly. A good tip is to wait a few minutes after applying your skincare before going in with your makeup – this allows the products to properly sink in, meaning your makeup will glide over the top without setting in patches.
