Beauty is more than skin deep but since first impressions count, it’s important that you look, and feel, your best. This comes down to confidence: in your ability to emphasise your best features, as well knowing which products best suit you. For women with darker skin tones, this can be tricky... many products simply don’t take our skin, hair and make-up needs into account. Well, this Beauty In The City supplement is 100% dedicated to empowering you with helpful tips, useful solutions and the very best products suited to your unique beauty.

GLOW Ethnic skin comes with its own challenges. We investigate which products can successfully solve all your skin concerns
Skin solutions
Give your skin the nourishing care it needs to look sensational
PROBLEM:
Dull and lifeless skin
Givenchy Hydra Sparkling Masque, R450
Clarins Bright Plus Protective Brightening Day Lotion, R550
SOLUTION: Our skin, just like us, sometimes needs a little boost. Take care of a tired complexion by adding vitalising, clarifying and energising products to your routine. These stimulate sluggish, lifeless skin back to a glowing and youthful radiance.
EstĂŠe Lauder Idealist Even Skintone Illuminator, R625 for 30ml
Black Up Multi-Radiance Moisturizer, R490
PROBLEM:
Dry skin
Bobbi Brown Hydrating Rich Cream Cleanser, R350
Innoxa SkinMoist Rich Nourishing Night Treatment, R149.95
SOLUTION: The answer to treating dry skin is in the question. Add moisture and exfoliate. Remove the dull, dry upper layer of skin to maximise the effects of moisturiser by allowing it to go deeper into the skin. Make it a habit to use day and night cream.
NIVEA Daily Essentials Rich Moisturising Day Cream, R85
Revlon Gentle Exfoliating Scrub, R89.95
beauty november 2011 07
beauty skincare L’Oréal Even Perfect Night Cream, R109.95
PROBLEM:
Uneven skin tone SOLUTION: Pigmentation, scarring and sun damage can affect your skin tone and give you an uneven complexion. The trick is to target the problem areas while not neglecting the rest of your complexion. Adopt a holistic approach and take sun protection seriously.
Lancôme Bright Expert Dark Spot Corrector and Radiance Activator, R595
Revlon Even Out Mark Minimising Serum, R99.95 Black Opal Advanced Dual Complex Fade Gel, R249.95
PROBLEM:
Oily skin
NIVEA Daily Essentials Shine Control Toner, R69.95
Pond’s Perfect Matte Day Cream, R67.99
SOLUTION: Don’t starve your skin of moisture. This will force it to produce even more oil to compensate. Get into a good three-step routine and exfoliate regularly to keep your skin clear.
Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit Daily Scrub, R74.95
Yardley Oatmeal Cleansing Gel For Oily Skin, R69.95

Bobbi Brown Concealer Kit, R340 Black Up Matifying Base, R375
1
PREPARE
Preparing your skin is the most vital step in flawless foundation application. Moisturising and priming your skin helps to lock in moisture, boost radiance and increase the longevity of your foundation.
2
CONCEAL
Often concealer is all you need to cover dark undereye circles, skin blemishes and dark spots. Apply with a flat brush or your ring finger and take care to pat it into the skin without rubbing or dragging.

APPLY
Black Opal True Color Liquid Foundation, R169.95
Apply your foundation with a brush or your fingertips starting through the centre of your face and blending the colour out towards your jawline. Tip: always test foundation colour on your jaw and not your hand.

SET
Apply loose or pressed powder with a large, fluffy brush to any trouble spots (or use a puff for a more matte finish). Remember: we get shinier in the “T-Zone” – the panel through the centre of the face.
Always test foundation colour in natural light. Apply three or
