About company
The Israeli cosmetics brand appeared on the market in 1982 and quickly gained popularity among customers. To create products, modern scientific developments, the latest technologies and the strictest quality control systems are used. The manufacturer was one of the first to enrich cosmetics with hyaluronic acid and retinol, as the most important component for skin rejuvenation.
The company's assortment includes a huge number of decorative and caring products made from natural ingredients. They are aimed at solving many problems and show excellent results. The products are aimed at moisturizing, nourishing, exfoliating, protecting and eliminating visible imperfections. The most popular decorative product is the Rose de Mer foundation from Christina. It has many different functions aimed at maintaining healthy facial skin.
Rules of application
Post-peeling foundation from Christina is recommended for use after deep peelings and other active cosmetic procedures with a noticeable rehabilitation stage. The substance can be used daily on a regular basis to camouflage and protect the skin of those who are dissatisfied with the condition of the skin (excessive rashes).
It is better to coordinate the scheme of use of the foundation product with the treating cosmetologist. Typically, this option is prescribed for use during the rehabilitation period after aggressive procedures. Start using the product immediately after performing Rose de Mer peeling (when carrying out procedures with other substances, the timing will be determined by the cosmetologist).
The cream can be used for any skin type. Regular use is suitable for oily skin; for dry, flabby, sensitive skin - only as post-peeling care prescribed by a doctor.
The product is distributed in any convenient way: with fingers, sponge, brush. Before application, it is recommended to place a sufficient amount of the substance in the palm of your hand. The thick cream softens under the influence of heat, making the product easier to apply evenly.
To obtain a thin layer of foundation, it is better to use your fingers. Using your hands will help you distribute the substance more evenly and achieve a natural effect. A brush or sponge is used to create a dense base. The smears are placed carefully. It is important not to injure delicate tissues.
The tonal cover product Christina is available in a single color. In the jar the product looks dark and often “scares” consumers. During application, the substance has a reddish tan tint, but quickly turns red and adapts to the natural skin tone.
For a very pale natural color of the integument, the option may be truly dark.
Christina foundation cover cream is applied only to previously prepared skin. Before using the substance, you need to wash your face, treat your skin with toner, and apply a light moisturizer.
To remove foundation, regular washing with a light cleanser (gel, foam) is not enough. Makeup removal is carried out using a specialized composition with a delicate effect. The use of aggressive substances and excessive skin friction are excluded.
