Skin Issue: Dry & Dull

Skin Issue Guide

Has your skin been feeling a little lackluster lately? Or maybe it’s just in need of a quenching?

Dry skin is incredibly common, especially for women over the age of 40. Luckily, you can hydrate your skin throughout the day and have a healthy glow, with or without makeup.

Our Perfect 10 Primer gives your skin a burst of hydration with coconut extract, aloe and avocado. And with powerful antioxidants like green tea, the Perfect 10 invigorates the skin for a more vibrant complexion while creating a barrier between the skin and your foundation.

The Hydrawear 12HR Liquid Foundation locks in moisture even more with hyaluronic acid, which holds up to 1,000x its weight in water and creates a blurring, flawless all-day pigment and coverage with high-impact minerals.

For your evening routine, stick with a cleanser that has a gentle, milky consistency to keep your skin from feeling stripped, and before moisturizing, treat your skin with a serum that helps cell turnover. Our Sleep & Renew Serum works to do just that, thanks to the help of fruit-derived AHAs. AHAs: Gently remove dead cells, reduce wrinkles. Apple, papaya extracts add glow to skin.

Skin Issue: Normal

For normal skin: Few blemishes, low sensitivity, small pores, balances hydration.

In other words, your skin type is generally going to have fewer issues (lucky you!).
