Makeup Meets Skincare: How Makeup Can Help Your Skin

From day-to-day to season-to-season our skin evolves in different ways and with those changes our skincare routine can be altered to ensure maximum skin health. When it comes to these seasonal changes there’s one thing for sure, we are still going to be wearing makeup – whether it’s just a bit each day, only from time to time or a full face each morning. 

As many of us know, certain makeup can clog pores, dry out the skin or make it more oily and if left overnight it can sometimes cause signs of premature aging and breakouts. We’re here to tell you that you CAN get makeup that actually BENEFITS your skin instead of doing all those things. Our makeup line contains skin-loving ingredients that do wonders for your skin while making you look flawless each and every day you want to wear some makeup. When you wear our makeup, you can trust that it’s aiding in protection, treatment and increasing the effectiveness of your skincare routine.

Wondering what exactly makes our makeup help your skin out so much? It’s all in the ingredients and we want to share which ones you’ll find in our makeup line.

Vitamin C

If it works, why change it?! This thought definitely applied to vitamin C. It’s one of the more well-known vitamins that aid in skincare because it protects skin from free radicals that damage your skin cells. It also focuses on boosting collagen production while reducing the appearance of sun damage. Talk about a magical ingredient!
