application
sprinkle this loose foundation into the palm of one hand and apply with your fingers in a gentle pressing, diagonal motion. repeat on any areas where more coverage is desired. suffering from chronic skin problems myself, i became an ‘acne-remedy junkie’ for years. the natural ingredients i came across that work to heal skin long term and to clear up congestion are what i have packed into this unique formula. the added benefits are full spectrum sun protection and skin-smoothing coverage. what i left out were titanium dioxide, dimethicone, talc, mica frosts and bismuth oxychloride. these common ‘fillers’ tend to dry out and irritate skin. they fill and permanently stretch the walls of pores, and slowly suffocate skin. as soon as skin is able to breathe, it is self-regulating and self-healing.
Tips on how to perfectly customize your bio-foundation are downloadable with the purchase of the shade-changing serums. I am also online during the day (pacific time) so if you click on the little message box in the bottom right corner, you can leave me a message. If you can attach a photo with a swatch showing what the uncustomized foundation looks like on your jawline when facing a window in 100% natural lighting, it will allow me to see what needs to be added to match your skin tone. You do not have to show your entire face in the photo, just your cheek, jawline, and neck area.
customization benefits
When purchasing the full size version of this foundation, you have the option to also purchase the shade-changer serums which you can add to your foundation shade to alter the undertones, texture, and depth. I have created this collection for my clients who notice their skin tone is always changing, and for those clients who would like to do the blending themselves. If you are not sure what needs to be added to create a perfectly matching tone to your skin tone, you can take a photo of a swatch of the foundation shade on your skin and email it to me for suggestions. I love to help, especially when it comes to the art of custom blending.
I am so excited to be able to finally offer this option to my clients! If you are a makeup artist, you likely already do a lot of your own blending of shades. Your clients will love the fact that you can alter a shade specifically for them. And the sky is the limit with these pigments. You can even use the shade-changers to intensify an eyeshadow or to create a contour shade. The more perfectly matched a foundation is to one’s skin tone, the more their own unique features are highlighted, because there are no distractions. The coverage has very smooth texture and incredble staying power. This formula pairs well with my raspberry + soursop serum and molecular hydrogen + sugarcane serum as well as my concealing hdd.
