Key Ingredients
Pomegranate* Whole Fruit Extract
Pomegranate fruit helps the skin to regenerate as well as having antioxidant properties. They also store a huge amount of moisture and vitality. The pomegranate extract used in Dr. Hauschka Foundation is obtained by processing the entire fruit, including its skin.
Pomegranates not only taste good, they have a range of health benefits. Anti-fungal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties have been ascribed to them. They’re also resistant to drought and can store much moisture and vitality in their fruit.
An age-defying ingredient
We process the whole pomegranate fruit, including the peel for our products, obtaining a preparation that promotes regeneration of the skin.
Pomegranate peel is an important ingredient because its extract inhibits an enzyme that is responsible for the breakdown of collagen in ageing skin.
At the same time, the extract activates an enzyme that’s involved in the production of collagen.
Pomegranate seed oil contained in the whole-fruit extract stimulates cell division in the keratinocytes, cells which produce the important skin-strengthening protein keratin.
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is slow in penetrating the skin’s layers, it leaves the skin feeling soft and silky smooth all day. The coconut oil in Dr. Hauschka Foundation comes from a small farming project in Sri Lanka, which is certified by both Naturland and Fair For Life. This gives the formulation a stable, moisturising base.
Macadamia Nut Oil
Macadamia nuts take a very long time to ripen and are only ready when they fall from the tree of their own accord. Macadamia nut oil is absorbed easily by the skin and is unique among oils owing to the high amount of antioxidant palmitoleic acid that it contains.
The composition also includes nourishing jojoba and apricot kernel oil, anthyllis which is a key ingredient to bring all skin conditions to a state of balance, protective shea butter and candelilla wax, provitamin A rich carrot root extract and silica to strengthen skin.
Make-up Artist TIPS
To find the right shade of Dr. Hauschka Foundation for you, apply three different shades on your chin and choose the colour which blends best with your face and neck.
You should apply Foundation in small amounts starting with the forehead and then moving on to the nose, chin and cheeks – always work downwards to avoid emphasising pores and fine hairs.
Blend the transition between the neck, ears and hairline so that no edges are visible.
Because your skin will begin absorbing Foundation immediately, we recommend applying product from the top of the lid, rather than the back of your hand.
You can apply a second coat of Foundation for more coverage.
A moist sponge may be used for a lighter coverage, alternatively to achieve a more translucent make-up, mix Foundation with your Dr. Hauschka Moisturiser.
Mix in a little Illuminating Fluid with your Foundation for a luminous finish.
Applying and patting in the Foundation with a foundation or kabuki brush helps to conceal redness and imperfections more effectively.
A nurturing base for an even complexion
For the Foundation to go on evenly, your skin should first be cleansed and moisturised. Otherwise, large amounts of Foundation will become concentrated on dry spots, creating an uneven result.
Application and fixing
For seamless application, apply a little Foundation from your forehead down to your nose, as well as to your chin and cheeks. Always work downwards so as not to emphasise pores or tiny hairs. Next, spread the Foundation outwards to the sides of your face, blending in the areas of transition with your neck, ears and hair line.
Concealer before or after?
After! For greater coverage in specific areas or to conceal shadows on the inner corner of the eyes, add a little Concealer. But don’t cover up too much – leave the moles or freckles that are part of your beauty.
Try Light Reflecting Concealer, which uses the trick of light to brighten and conceal. Great for under eyes.
Why use Powder?
Powder helps to fix the liquid Foundation and enhances the staying power of your make-up. Use a Powder Brush to work a little loose power into your skin using downwards strokes. To create a more matte effect, you can press the powder onto your skin using a powder puff, gently rolling it back and forth. Powder Compact is a practical choice if you like to refresh your make-up while out and about.
Fingers, sponge or brush?
The skin caring ingredients of Dr. Hauschka Foundation will begin absorbing immediately upon application so we recommend applying Foundation from the lid of the Foundation bottle. If you apply from the back of your hand absorption will occur.
Easily, with a slightly moist make-up sponge
When using a Foundation Brush, you can apply the Foundation to specific areas, increasing its ability to conceal blemishes. Foundation Brush is great for giving an ‘air brushed’ finish, and for blending colour at jawline.
For a Sun-Kissed Look
For a hint of summer sun-kissed freshness, mix a small amount of Translucent Bronzing Tint with your Foundation.
Mix shades
Different tones open up interesting opportunities: the shades can be combined in any way you like to create your very own, personal Foundation or adapt your usual shade to the time of year. A darker shade helps to emphasise your cheek area.
For a bit of quick refreshment
If you applied your Foundation a few hours ago, you can give your face a little extra hydration later in the day, Mist a small amount of Facial Toner onto your face.
Too much Powder or Foundation?
Spray a little Toner onto a Powder Brush and gently brush across your face.
For a long-lasting and colour correcting result
For longer-lasting results and a flawless complexion, apply a little Colour Correcting Powder to your face first, to colour correct and as a matte base for Foundation. Apply a little over the Foundation as well, to set your make-up. Yes under and over, and it doesn’t go patchy because it’s natural mineral pigment based make-up.
