Cosmetic brands are finally developing products that target hyper-pigmentation and help fade (not whiten) uneven skin tone, a skin issue prevalent amongst many women of colour JIL SANDER
The seasonal trend for vibrant make-up colours is ideal for darker skin tones Great news – the much-loved YSL Touche Éclat is available in darker shades. Now we can all share in its eyebrightening miracles
Strong black women are in vogue and when they speak out, the world pays attention, making them great catalysts for change MICHELLE OBAMA

The limitations of the beauty industry insofar as women of colour are concerned has been an issue for quite some time. But happily, things have changed and the age of ‘cosmetic equality’ is upon us. Beauty brands are now prioritising the needs of darker-skinned women. They’re investing in research and products that make all the difference to our appearance, such as less ashy-looking foundation and more true-to-skin coverage. So with our unique beauty concerns on everyone’s lips, it’s great to know that we’re finally being catered to, as you’ll see on the pages of this glam guide to beauty. – lameez hendricks, edgars club beauty editor GROUP EDITOR: JUSTINE STAFFORD GROUP ART DIRECTOR: STACEY HENDRIKSE SUPPLEMENT EDITOR: JULIA FRASER MANAGING EDITOR: DELICIA KRAUSE BEAUTY EDITOR: LAMEEZ HENDRICKS BEAUTY ASSISTANT: DEEVYA VASSON SUB EDITOR: NICOLA-JANE FORD GROUP ACCOUNT DIRECTOR: SAM STEVENS ACCOUNT MANAGER: AMY MOONSAMY ADVERTISING DIRECTOR (JHB): MOYRA BEEMING 082 375 4446 ADVERTISING MANAGER (CPT): ESTELLE DIETRICH 073 224 4996 CONTRIBUTORS: PHOTOGRAPHY: JESSE-LEIGH ELFORD AT SUPERNOVA MAKE-UP: JADE LEGGAT AT SUPERNOVA PHOTOGRAPHER’S ASSISTANT/ RETOUCHER: JUANEL VAN DER WALT STILLS PHOTOGRAPHY: RIANA VOGEL, SÉBASTIEN ROHNER MODEL: CHRISTELLE AT FUSION STOCK IMAGES: GALLO IMAGES/GETTY IMAGES FOR EDGARS: CRM MARKETING MANAGER: CAMERON BURT PUBLICATIONS MANAGER: SUMEERA DAWOOD PUBLISHER: JOHN BROWN MEDIA, SOUTH AFRICA John Brown Media SA, 2nd Floor, Block A, North Side, Black River Park, Fir Street, Observatory 7925 | PostNet Suite #2, Private Bag X11, Mowbray 7705 | EMAIL: edgarsclub@johnbrownmedia.com | TEL: 021 486 7600 FAX: 021 486 7614 november 2012 beauty

THE RED LIP

Women with darker skin can choose bright and richly pigmented blushes. Using a soft brush, apply blush to the apples of the cheek for a lovely glow. Steer clear of pastels and bright pinks, as they can create a ‘cakey’, washed-out look.

The perfect match
Estée Lauder embarked upon a nationwide research event in Edgars stores this year in the hope of one day creating a range of foundations to suit every woman in SA
O
ver the course of three weeks in July, Estée Lauder hosted five makeover events at Edgars stores around the country, attended by over 1 000 women. The aim? To identify a comprehensive landscape of skin tone colour and to provide a trueto-skin tone shade library that is relevant to the South African market. The results of these sessions have been handed over to an international Estée Lauder research team currently hard at work producing colours geared for the SA market. The new shades are to be released next year but in the meantime, Edgars customers can look forward to the launch of Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup SPF 10 and Stay-in-Place Powder Makeup SPF 10, which will both be available in November. New shades have been added to the range, borne out of a similar survey undertaken in the USA on the foundation requirements of Hispanic and AfricanAmerican women.
“The double-wear formula is an iconic Estée Lauder product – we want every South African woman to be able to use it, whatever her skin tone,” says Ronel Lategan, national marketing manager for Estée Lauder and Tom Ford. “With such an ethnic variety in our rainbow nation, there are still women struggling to find the right foundation, across all the beauty brands. Estée Lauder wants to change that.”

skin care beauty I HAVE… BREAK-OUTS I WANT… CLEAR SKIN
If you’re prone to break-outs, treat your skin with care. A deep cleanse twice a day is crucial and be sure to keep your skin well hydrated with an oil-free moisturiser. Sticks and gels that contain salicylic acid offer a targeted solution.
EXCLUSIVE TO EDGARS
Kiehl’s Blue Herbal Spot Treatment, R195
Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions Clearing Moisturizer, R200
I HAVE… DISCOLOURATION I WANT… EVEN SKIN TONE
Always protect your skin from sun exposure to prevent (and help fade existing) discolouration. Invest in products that contain AHAs or vitamin B3: miracle ingredients that speed up the evening process.
I HAVE… DULL, LIFELESS SKIN I WANT… A HEALTHY GLOW
An ‘ashy’ complexion is a sign that your skin needs hydration. Cleansing and exfoliation is the key to radiance: use a hydrating moisturiser and a serum with light-diffusing properties for a natural, healthy glow.

beauty skin care I HAVE… FINE LINES I WANT… TO MINIMISE LINES
Look for moisturisers, serums and eye creams that contain retinol or vitamins A and E, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines. Keep skin well hydrated and be vigilant about applying sunscreen.
I HAVE… IRRITATED SKIN I WANT… SOOTHED SKIN
Calm itchy, irritated skin with gentle, hydration-boosting products that won’t strip the skin of its oil. Exfoliate once a week but stick to formulas with fine granules or gentle exfoliating masks.

The PinkDrive runs two mobile Pink Breast Check units in Gauteng and has recently been launched in the Western Cape. These clinics provide women in disadvantaged areas with access to information, free mammograms and education in self-examination and early warning signs. To date, 16 000 clinical breast examinations and 2 000 free mammograms have been conducted. The PinkDrive is widely supported by radiologists, celebrities and the sporting community. It also collaborates extensively with other cancer NGOs to increase awareness for cancer education and publicise the ongoing need for support.
