As a trained esthetician and makeup artist, I believe in skin prep before makeup and always start my makeup applications with prepping the skin.

I love the Monat rewind anti-aging rewind serum. It contains hyaluronic acid that plumps up the skin and a rose quartz facial roller to give the face a skin massage and lift.

For under-eye discolouration and or wrinkles, I highly recommend the Monat 30 second instant eye perfector paired with bodyography cover and correct under-eye concealer.

What we are putting in our body has a huge impact on our skin. Collagen is so important for glowing skin, beauty, nail and hair growth.

Function Lab skin care (Available at Dermapure Oshun House Saskatoon) 

As a professional makeup artist, I always recommend good quality skin care and the importance of wearing sunscreen.

Function lab offers a tinted sunscreen that’s great for any skin type. The vitamin C serum is a must-have for your daily routine.

Product:

Ellagic C Serum – This is the best serum for everyone! This formula increases protection against photodamage, blocking the damaging effects of UVA and UVB. With anti-aging properties such as Hyaluronic acid, it reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and helps to treat hyperpigmentation resulting in a smoother, radiant complexion.

Tinted SPF 50 – the SPF 50 is an ultralight formula that is 100% mineral sunscreen with Titanium dioxide and Zinc Oxide to offer your skin the protection it needs against harmful UVA and UVB rays.
