Posted by Amber Silva on Sunday, May 7, 2017 Under: Products
I have been patiently waiting to find the absolute perfect products to retail to my clients! It had to be something I truly truly believed in. Not for the money (that is a great perk) but as any makeup artist will tell you to get smooth, glowing, long lasting makeup it all starts with taking amazing care of your skin!
Alcone Company has been providing professional products to makeup artists since 1952. I have been using some of their makeup products in my kit for over a decade. They have now made their own professional line of skincare that is natural and organic! As soon as I started using the skincare I knew I had to offer it to my clients! Many of my clients have told me how OBSESSED they are with these products. Here is a little info on some of my favorites!
CLEANSERS
These are exceptional cleansers. I didn't realize until about a year ago what a difference cleansers make. A great cleanser specifically for your skin type can change everything!
Dream Clean Cleanser (Normal/Oily skin) and Quench Cleanser (Dry/Normal skin)
If you have dry/combo skin or sun damage it is recommended to use the Dream Clean Cleanser at night and the Quench Cleanse in the morning!
Dream Clean Key Ingredients:
Aloe Vera - helps heal the skin, creates a “shield” to keep pollutants out and moisture in, and promotes redevelopment of new, healthy skin cells.
Soapberry - this plant contains natural saponins that cleanse the skin. These extracts have been proven to inhibit melanin production, reducing the appearance of age spots and sun damage.
Saponins also fight bacteria, which makes this a great cleanser for acne prone skin.
Extract of White Tea - this extract offers antioxidant benefits to the skin cells.
Spirulina Platensis Algae - is known to provide firming qualities to the skin as well as substantial hydration.
Quench Cleanse Key Ingredients:
Aloe Vera - helps heal the skin, creates a “shield” to keep pollutants out and moisture in, and promotes redevelopment of new, healthy skin cells.
Rose Flower Water - our rose water comes from roses harvested in Bulgaria’s famous Valley of Roses and helps in soothing and hydrating the skin.
Wheat Germ Oil - used to treat eczema, psoriasis, and stretch marks because it is rich in protein, vitamins A, D, and E and lecithin.
Foraha Fruit Seed Oil - this vegetable oil from Madagascar is proven to aid in the elimination of waste material and toxins from capillaries, helping support cell immunity and strengthen skin cell tissue.
Must Dew Face Oil (I personally think face oil is one of the best kept secrets in skincare)
Incredible product! Therapeutic scent, feels amazing, super hydrating and helps makeup glide onto dry skin! Whether your skin is dry/oily/combo you will not regret adding this amazing product to your skincare routine!
Key Ingredients:
Palmarose Oil - therapeutic oil refreshes skin and reduces inflammation.
Helichrysum Oil - long recognized for its ability to stimulate the production and protection of new cells.
Schisandra Fruit Extract - reduces over-active cell turnover, which can leave skin dry and inflamed.

MASKS
Masque of Zen
This acne fighting mask is amazing and a favorite among my clients! I use regularly and it has greatly improved the look of my skin.
Key Ingredients:
Montana Clay - penetrates deeply to inhibit bacteria growth, remove excess sebum, speed new skin cell growth, reduce inflammation and reduce scarring, giving skin a healthier appearance free of blemishes and imperfections
Cinnamon Bark Extract - this ingredient from Sri Lanka is a mild astringent and helps regulate bacteria without throwing off the skin cell balance.

Carrot Seed Oil - rich in Vitamin A that improves the health of skin cells.

Cold-Pressed Lemon Peel Oil - this oil helps stimulate new cell growth and is proven to regenerate skin cells.
