Skincare Supplements
Proper beauty regimes include taking care of your skin from the inside. The Skin Youth Biome supplement is filled with four unique probiotics and antioxidant-rich Vitamin C which helps balance intestinal flora, hydrate skin, and support a youthful complexion. This supplement uses advanced microcapsulation technology, which means live cultures are able to survive stomach acid, and target the areas that need the most help. The Skin Ultimate supplement is designed to maintain healthy skin, hair, and nails. Each capsule is filled with natural ingredients such as Skin Antioxidant, Skin Vitamin A, Skin Omegas, and so much more! When combined, these super-nutrient solutions will nourish, hydrate and protect your hair, skin and nails. This supplement is perfect for all skin-types, but will especially help aging skin, thinning hair and brittle nails.
SPF Products
The jane iredale SPF line is ideal for us Bermudians — they’re perfect for use all year long, on and off the beach. This range includes everything from hand cream, to lip balm and everything in between! One of the best aspects of this line is the makeup also includes SPF. Look for products such as the PurePressed Base Mineral Foundation and Glow Time Full Coverage Mineral BB Cream to ensure sun protection. The Powder-Me SPF Dry Sunscreen is one of our favorite products: it boasts a SPF 30 rating for body, face and scalp, is water-resistant for up to 40 minutes, and is reef-safe. Unlike normal sunscreen, this revolutionary powder is dry and does not have any active chemicals. Protect yourself from harmful UVA/UVB rays, and look gorgeous at the same time with this fabulous makeup and skincare line!
Mineral Foundation Face Makeup
The jane iredale mineral foundation makeup line is a revelation in the world of cosmetics. These products are 100% cruelty-free and clean. Free of any harmful chemicals, this entire line will help enhance your natural beauty and create glowing, radiant skin. With products ranging from the Beyond Matte Liquid Foundation to PurePressed Base Mineral Foundation, there is absolutely something for everybody. One of our favorite products is called Liquid Minerals, a vegan serum made with state-of-the-art technology which prevents active ingredients from degrading, and allows the actives to release over time. If you’re looking for a super light foundation that provides sheer to medium coverage, minimizes the appearance of pores, diminishes fine lines and wrinkles, and is super hydrating, then this serum is for you.

BeautyPrep Hyaluronic Serum
This serum is absolutely perfect for the winter months as it is filled with super hydrating Hyaluronic Acids! Say goodbye to dull, lifeless skin and restore radiance with this brilliant serum! This product is suitable for all skin types and promotes a healthy complexion. Additionally, this serum reduces the appearance of pores and fine lines for younger looking skin. Just like all jane iredale products, this serum contains no sulfates, parabens or phthalates — so no harmful chemicals. This simple yet powerful step is crucial and extremely beneficial for the cold winter months.
Skin Omegas
Another jane iredale supplement that we love is the Skin Omegas! This amazing capsule is filled with highly purified omega-3 fish oil and omega-6 from evening primrose oil. Combined, these oils help with both skin integrity and helps to promote a smooth, luminous complexion. These fatty acids are a vital part of a balanced diet, this is due to their cell-renewing abilities. For those with dry, sensitive or acneic, omega-3 is absolutely ideal because of the hydrating, smoothing, and anti-inflammatory aspects of the oil. These capsules are easy to digest and have no aftertaste, and only require two a day (with food).
Beyond Matte Liquid Foundation — Color Matching
One of the latest products to be released, the Beyond Matte Liquid Foundation, is perfect for those looking for a little extra coverage. This clean, weightless product has 3 functions in 1 bottle: it is a primer, concealer, and foundation! This powerful foundation provides a semi-matte, photo-ready finish and is available in 18 self-adjusting shades. You can layer to build coverage and cover dark spots or blemishes. Additionally, this foundation reduces the appearance of shine and minimizes the appearance of pores to promote smooth and glowing skin. However, ultimately, this foundation guarantees a natural-looking finish and is a 100% color match guarantee!
