Jane Iredale Liquid Minerals are suitable for all skin types. They diminish the appearance of lines and wrinkles, minimise pores, even out skin tone and adhere so well, there is minimal transference. Note though there is no SPF protection with this item.

No nasties like oil, talc, FD and C dyes or synthetic preservatives.

Use the Foundation Brush with the Jane Iredale Liquid Minerals for those who prefer a brushed application.

Application Advice for Jane Iredale Liquid Minerals:

Two pumps are usually enough for the whole face. The first few pumps will produce a clear gel. Rub it into your hands, it’s good for them.

For a sheer finish spritz the Foundation Brush with D2O, Balance or Pommisst. Pump the mousse onto the back of your hand and mix it with your fingers. Dip the brush into the mousse and spread it over the face, blending as you go

For heavier coverage use the Foundation Brush dry and then brush on a layer of Amazing Base or PurePressed Base.

Vitamin K – Rosacea specialist, Dr. Geoffrey Nase has said: “Vitamin K has been the plastic surgeons´ magical secret weapon for post-surgery bruising (damaged blood vessels). It has been shown to strengthen blood vessels (arterioles, capillaries and venules) in scientific studies. Small concentrations of Vitamin K added to your daily routine may have a very positive effect on under eye bags (swelling), under eye bluish colour (dilated venules returning de-oxygenated blood) and red dilated arterioles that have not been structurally damaged.”

Reduces wrinkle depth by 27%. Increases epidermal turnover and cellular renewal. Acts as a powerful antioxidant.
