Sometimes it can be difficult to find the right makeup which leaves your face looking flawless. We all have different skin types whether it is oily, dry, sensitive to the sun or susceptible to skin irritations. This can make it difficult for us to find a makeup range that meets all these needs.

At Jill Zander we provide products and treatments which are complementary to a variety of people. This includes the Jane Iredale Mineral Makeup collection which is recommended by plastic surgeons, dermatologists and skin care professionals.

How can I get a near flawless complexion?

Question*

I will try to explain my appearance as best I can. Imagine applying foundation over a kitchen sieve. This is the problem I have – the pores on my cheeks and nose are so open. I have tried to exfoliate and smear on all different types of foundation, but it always looks blotchy and caked and definitely seems to enhance enlarged pores. What on earth can I do to get that almost flawless complexion – or am I being unrealistic?

Answer

Using an exfoliator is a good approach, but I would suggest that you follow with a clay mask immediately afterwards to absorb excess grease and skin debris. It is important to keep the pores clean and prevent them from becoming clogged. Sadly, open pores cannot be got rid of – they are usually an indication of what was an oily skin or, depending on your age, remains an oily skin. The size of our pores is genetically determined.

Recommended salon treatments are glycolic or salicylic peels, microdermabrasion and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light). The results are extremely pleasing. You should also have a series of deep cleansing facials to clean out the pores roughly every three to four weeks.

As for dealing with the problem of make-up, go for a lovely even-toned ultra-natural finish. An oil-free tinted moisturiser is the answer, combined with a light dusting of loose face powder to set the make-up and make it last all day.

Warm regards,

How can I deal with Coarse, Dull Skin?

Question*

Have you ever felt a dry Chamois leather – better known as ‘shammy leather’? Well, my skin isn’t quite as bad as that, but it’s not far off to be honest. I am 47 years old, and it looks dull and sallow and I am quickly developing lines on my cheeks. In winter my skin feels tight and I’ve been told this is a sign of dehydration.

Answer

I would recommend that we start with a glycolic peel to loosen and remove the tough dead cells and then follow with our microdermabrasion to mechanically slough off the dull outer horny layer to reveal a smoother, brighter, more refreshed skin tone. That coarseness, dullness and sallowness you complain of vanishes in an instant and then we breathe life into a tired complexion using our Transderm Mesotherapy, which opens tiny channels in the skin to introduce a cocktail of vitamins, antioxidants, amino acids and hyaluronic acid to immediately hydrate and give the skin’s metabolism a kick start. This treatment is ideal for collagen and elastin stimulation, and in time lines and wrinkles are plumped out and filled.

Warm regards,
