In my mid-twenties, I decided to start wearing foundation. My reason was perhaps unusual. I knew I would never wear an SPF daily unless it was somehow incorporated into makeup. So I started buying foundation with an SPF, and protected my skin while improving my appearance. Makeup multi-tasking!
tarte's recently launched ReCreate foundation not only contains a broad range UVA/UVB SPF 15 sunblock, but is designed to actually reverse the signs of aging!
Here are some clinical results for you, direct from the lab:
Significant increase in skin elasticity, firmness and resiliency an average of 22% after 2 weeks of use and 43% after 4 weeks of use (hello ladies! FAST results!)
Significant reduction in the appearance of fine lines and facial wrinkles an average of 39% after 4 weeks of use and 67% after 6 weeks of use.
52.8% increase in moisture of skin 15 minutes post application.
I am loving the full coverage this foundation provides, without looking or feeling heavy. The finish is positively dewy… perfect for Spring! With ReCreate, a little product goes a long way. It applies so smoothly, and is so easy to blend into the skin, you can easily really tiny amounts only on troublesome areas.
Want more reasons to try it yourself? How about this… ReCreate is paraben free, petro-chemical free, phthalate free, sulfate free, oil free (yes… you read that right!), fragrance free, dye free and talc free. Its a sensitive-skinned woman's dream come true. It's also dermatologist tested, and clinically tested.
ReCreate anti-aging foundation is available in 12 shades, and retails for $37. Find it by visiting tarte cosmetics online, Sephora.com, beauty.com, Henri Bendel or Bergdorf Goodman.
