Understanding Your Skin

Your skin is your largest organ—complex and wonderful, but sometimes tricky to manage. While some are blessed with flawless skin, most of us work to enhance our skin’s appearance, especially when tired, working in air-conditioned environments, or feeling under the weather.

For healthy skin:

  • Stay hydrated and maintain a nutritious diet.
  • Use natural, toxin-free skincare products for long-term benefits.

From a makeup perspective, skin generally falls into four categories: normal, dry, oily, or combination.

Foundation Recommendations by Skin Type

  1. Normal, Dry, or Mature Skin
  • Loose Mineral Foundation
    • Suitable for all skin types, incuding dry or mature skin.
    • Can be applied over facial oil or mixed with oil for added moisture.
