Product Description

The clearest fix for foundation that pills, settles, or looks cakey by noon: exfoliate, hydrate, seal — in that order. Sexapeel Gommage removes the buildup causing texture and patchiness. Water Elixir hydrates the dehydration causing settling. Water Balm seals it all in and replaces your primer. Three steps, one real logic, better makeup every day.

Key Ingredients

• Mandelic Acid & PHAs (Gommage) — gently lift dead skin and buildup for a smoother canvas
• Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 (Elixir & Balm) — supports firmer, smoother-looking skin over time
• Hyaluronic Acid & Amino Acids (Elixir) — flood skin with lasting hydration
• Ceramide 3 (Balm) — supports a more comfortable, resilient-feeling barrier
• Hydrolyzed Silk (Balm) — smooths texture for a second-skin makeup finish

How to Use the Essential Makeup Prep Kit

1. Exfoliate. Sexapeel Gommage, 1–3x/week, to remove the buildup causing texture and patchiness.
2. Hydrate. Water Elixir, morning and night, to fix the dehydration causing settling.
3. Seal. Water Balm, morning and night, to lock it in and prep for makeup.

FAQ

Why does this sequence — exfoliate, hydrate, seal — actually matter?
Makeup problems like pilling, settling, and cakey texture trace back to two causes: dead skin buildup and dehydration. This kit removes the buildup, fixes the dehydration, then seals it all in — addressing both root causes in one purchase.

Will this stop my foundation from settling into fine lines?
Yes. Removing buildup and hydrating skin first gives foundation an even, hydrated surface to sit on instead of clinging to dry patches or texture.

How long until I see results?
Skin feels smoother and more hydrated immediately. The exfoliation benefit builds over 3–4 weeks of consistent use — this is a daily-better routine, not a one-time fix.

Is this kit safe for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin?
Yes. All three products are formulated for reactive, sensitive, and rosacea-prone skin. The Gommage Gel is fragrance-free.

How often do I use each product?
Sexapeel Gommage: 1–3x/week. Water Elixir and Water Balm: daily, morning and night.

What's the difference between this and the Complete Makeup Prep Kit?
The Complete Makeup Prep Kit adds the Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel, specifically for concealer that creases or settles into fine lines around the eyes.

Do I need a separate primer if I use this kit?
No. Water Balm is formulated to replace a separate primer step, on top of hydrating and prepping skin.

How much do I save with this kit?
$172 retail value for $163 — a $9 savings, with more available on Auto Replenish.

I already own some of these products — should I still buy the kit?
If you're missing just one or two, buying individually may make more sense. This kit is built for starting the full three-step system at once.

Can I use Sexapeel Gommage and Water Elixir on the same day?
Yes — on exfoliation nights, use Sexapeel Gommage first, then follow with Water Elixir and Water Balm.

Hydration Heroes Skin Prep Kit

A two-step facial hydration and makeup-prep system for skin that feels tight, dehydrated, rough, or difficult under makeup. Water Elixir delivers lightweight hydration, while Water Balm helps seal in moisture and prepare the skin for smoother-looking makeup application.

Includes: Water Elixir + Water Balm
Kit price: $109
Separate value: $130
You save: $21

Full Product Description

When skin feels oily on the surface but tight underneath, adding more heavy creams is not always the answer. The Hydration Heroes Skin Prep Kit gives your skin two clear hydration steps without building an overly complicated routine.

First, Water Elixir adds lightweight hydration to skin that feels depleted, tight, or uncomfortable. Then, Water Balm helps seal in that hydration while serving as your final moisturizer and makeup-prep step.

Together, they help simplify what goes underneath sunscreen, foundation, concealer, and other complexion products.

Instead of layering several serums, moisturizers, facial oils, and primers, this two-product system gives each step a clear job:

1. Hydrate with Water Elixir

2. Seal and prep with Water Balm

The result is skin that feels softer, more comfortable, and better prepared for makeup.

The Total Transformation

Before

Your skin may feel:

• Tight after cleansing

• Dry underneath surface oil

• Rough or uneven

• Sticky from too many skincare layers

• Dehydrated by midday

• Difficult to prepare for foundation

• Overloaded with serums, creams, oils, and primer

Your makeup may:

• Catch on dry areas

• Look uneven

• Sit on top of the skin

• Separate over heavily layered skincare

• Pill when too many products are applied

• Look dry even when your skin becomes oily later

After

With a consistent two-step routine, skin can feel:

• More hydrated

• Softer and more comfortable

• Less tight

• Smoother to the touch

• Cushioned without unnecessary layers

• Better prepared for sunscreen and makeup

Makeup can appear:

• Smoother

• More even

• Less heavy over dry-looking areas

• Easier to blend

• More natural on the skin

Results can vary depending on your skin, sunscreen, makeup formulas, product amounts, and application method.

3 Key Benefits

1. Replenishes Lightweight Hydration

Water Elixir gives thirsty, dehydrated skin a lightweight hydration step without beginning the routine with a heavy cream.

It is designed for skin that may feel:

• Tight

• Depleted

• Uncomfortable

• Dry underneath surface oil

• Rough under makeup

This step helps reduce the urge to stack several hydrating serums before moisturizer.

2. Seals In Moisture and Softens the Skin

Water Balm follows Water Elixir to help seal in hydration and support softer, smoother-feeling skin.

It works as:

• Your moisturizer

• Your final skincare layer

• Your makeup-prep step

Water Balm can reduce the need for a separate primer in many routines, helping simplify the number of products sitting underneath foundation.

3. Creates a Simpler Makeup-Prep Routine

Too many skincare and primer layers can create more opportunities for rolling, balling, lifting, or uneven makeup application.

Hydration Heroes gives you a clear order:

Water Elixir → Water Balm → sunscreen → makeup

Fewer overlapping layers mean fewer products competing underneath your foundation.

This kit does not guarantee zero pilling or compatibility with every sunscreen and makeup formula. It creates a simpler routine with fewer potential conflict points.

What Is Included

Water Elixir

A lightweight facial hydration step used before moisturizer.

Its job:

• Adds lightweight hydration

• Helps skin feel less tight

• Supports softer, more comfortable skin

• Prepares the skin for Water Balm

• Helps simplify multiple serum steps

Use it when:

• Your skin feels tight after cleansing

• Your skin becomes oily but still feels dehydrated

• Your makeup catches on dry-looking areas

• Heavy hydration products feel like too much

• You want one clear hydration step

Water Balm

A moisturizer and final makeup-prep step used after Water Elixir.

Its job:

• Helps seal in hydration

• Softens the feel of dry or rough skin

• Acts as the final moisturizer before sunscreen

• Helps prepare the skin for makeup

• Can reduce the need for a separate primer

Use it when:

• Your skin needs moisture without a complicated routine

• Foundation looks uneven over your skincare

• You are tired of layering moisturizer and primer

• Your skin feels tight underneath makeup

• You want a repeatable morning routine

Who It Is For

Hydration Heroes Skin Prep Kit is ideal for:

• Dehydrated skin

• Oily skin that still feels tight

• Combination skin

• Dry-looking makeup texture

• Skin that feels tight after cleansing

• Foundation that catches on dry areas

• Skincare that feels too layered underneath makeup

• Anyone simplifying a long morning routine

• Anyone who wants hydration without several overlapping products

• Primer-fatigued makeup wearers

Who May Need a Different Routine

This kit may not be the best first step if your skin is:

• Actively irritated

• Raw or painful

• Burning or stinging

• Recovering from aggressive exfoliation

• Experiencing a severe reaction

• Extremely dry and in need of a richer barrier-support routine

Do not use skincare products on actively irritated or damaged skin without appropriate guidance.

How to Use

Morning Routine

1. Begin with clean skin.

2. Apply a small amount of Water Elixir.

3. Press it gently into the skin.

4. Apply a thin layer of Water Balm.

5. Allow Water Balm to settle.

6. Apply sunscreen according to its directions.

7. Allow sunscreen to form its intended layer.

8. Apply makeup using light pressing or blending motions.

Recommended order

Water Elixir → Water Balm → sunscreen → makeup

Do not skip sunscreen.

Evening Routine

1. Remove makeup and sunscreen.

2. Cleanse the skin.

3. Apply Water Elixir.

4. Follow with Water Balm.

Recommended order

Cleanse → Water Elixir → Water Balm

Makeup-Prep Tips

For the best makeup application:

• Use thin layers

• Avoid applying more product than your skin needs

• Press skincare into the skin instead of repeatedly rubbing

• Allow Water Balm to settle before sunscreen

• Allow sunscreen to settle before makeup

• Apply foundation with light pressing or blending motions

• Avoid repeatedly working over the same area

• Test one routine change at a time

If your makeup pills, do not replace every product at once.

Start by checking:

• How much skincare you applied

• Whether you used a separate primer

• Whether Water Balm had time to settle

• Whether sunscreen had time to form its layer

• Whether the pilling began before or after sunscreen

• Whether repeated rubbing disturbed the layers underneath

Can Water Balm Replace Primer?

For many makeup routines, Water Balm can serve as the final moisturizer and makeup-prep step, reducing the need for a separate primer.

A specialized primer may still be useful for someone seeking a specific makeup effect, such as:

• Strong mattifying

• Pore filling

• Added grip

• Targeted blurring

Water Balm is not positioned as another layer to add on top of moisturizer and primer. Its purpose is to help simplify overlapping steps where appropriate.

Why This Kit Works as a System

Each product has a separate job.

Water Elixir

Hydrates

Water Balm

Seals and prepares

Using them together creates a simple two-step system instead of asking one product to do everything.

This makes the routine easier to:

• Understand

• Repeat

• Adjust

• Travel with

• Use underneath makeup

• Troubleshoot when another formula changes

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this kit for dry skin?

Yes. It is designed for skin that feels dry, tight, depleted, or dehydrated.

For extremely dry or compromised skin, a richer barrier-support product may also be appropriate.

Is this kit for oily skin?

It can be.

Some oily skin is also dehydrated. You may notice oil on the surface while the skin still feels tight or uncomfortable underneath.

Water Elixir provides lightweight hydration, while Water Balm helps seal it in.

Will it make my skin greasy?

Use thin layers and adjust the amount based on your skin.

Applying too much of any skincare product can make the surface feel heavy or slow to settle.

Can I use this under makeup?

Yes.

The kit is designed to hydrate and prepare the skin before sunscreen and makeup.

What order do I use the products?

Use:

Water Elixir first, then Water Balm.

Do I still need primer?

Not always.

Water Balm can serve as the final moisturizer and makeup-prep step for many routines. You may not need a separate primer unless you prefer one for a specific makeup finish.

Will this stop all makeup pilling?

No product can guarantee zero pilling.

Pilling may involve:

• Product amount

• Application method

• Sunscreen

• Foundation

• Primer

• Timing

• Surface buildup

• Formula interaction

This kit helps simplify the products underneath makeup, creating fewer potential conflict points.

It may be used with other skincare products, but adding more layers can affect how the routine behaves under makeup.

Introduce one change at a time and follow the directions for each product.

Can I use it with tretinoin or retinoids?

Follow the directions provided with your treatment and consult your healthcare professional if you have questions about combining products.

Sexapeel™ Face & Body Exfoliation Kit

Smoother skin. From face to feet.

Your face and your body aren’t the same skin. So why exfoliate them the same way?

The Sexapeel™ Face & Body Exfoliation Kit gives you two non-abrasive gommage exfoliators, each formulated for the skin it’s meant to treat.

Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel uses Mandelic Acid + PHAs to gently lift dead skin and surface buildup from the face without gritty scrubs. It’s fragrance-free and designed with sensitive, reactive skin in mind.

Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray uses Glycolic Acid + fruit acids to tackle the thicker, rougher skin on your body. Spray it on arms, legs, elbows, knees, feet, or anywhere skin feels rough and dull.

As you massage, watch the dead skin and surface buildup roll away. Rinse it off and skin feels noticeably softer and smoother.

Why You'll Love It

• Exfoliates face + body with formulas made for each

• Removes dead skin and surface buildup

• Smooths rough, flaky, uneven-looking texture

• Helps create a smoother canvas for foundation and concealer

• Preps body skin for self-tanner, body makeup, lotion, and moisturizer

• No gritty scrubs or physical exfoliating particles

• Face Gel is fragrance-free

• Made in Korea

What's Inside

Sexapeel™ Gommage Peeling Gel — Face
Your gentler facial exfoliator. Mandelic Acid + PHAs loosen dead skin and surface buildup while the gommage action rolls it away. Use when skin looks dull, flaky, uneven, or makeup keeps catching on texture.

Sexapeel™ Instant Exfoliation Spray — Body
Your heavy lifter for rough body skin. Glycolic Acid + a fruit-acid complex exfoliate arms, legs, elbows, knees, feet, and other rough areas. Especially useful before self-tanner, body makeup, lotion, or moisturizer.

How to Use

FACE — Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel

1. Start with clean, completely dry skin.

2. Apply a nickel-sized amount.

3. Wait about 10 seconds.

4. Massage with short back-and-forth motions and watch the dead skin and surface buildup roll away.

5. Rinse with lukewarm water.

6. Follow with your hydrating skincare.

Use 1–3 times per week. If your skin is sensitive or highly reactive, start once weekly.

BODY — Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray

1. Spray onto dry skin before showering.

2. Wait 5–10 seconds.

3. Massage and watch the buildup roll away.

4. Rinse thoroughly.

5. Follow with your favorite body moisturizer.

Use every other day as needed. Avoid using immediately before or after shaving.

Which Sexapeel Goes Where?

Sensitive or reactive face? Use the Gommage Peeling Gel.

Rough arms, legs, elbows, knees or feet? Use the Instant Exfoliation Spray.

The Spray can also be used on the face if your skin is not sensitive, but when in doubt, use the Gel for facial exfoliation.

FAQ

Is this a scrub?
No. Neither Sexapeel contains gritty scrub particles. The formulas use exfoliating acids plus gommage action to loosen and lift dead skin and surface buildup.

What are those little rolls I see coming off my skin?
As you massage, the formula rolls together with dead skin and surface buildup. Think of it like a lint roller for your skin: it helps lift what’s sitting loose on the surface without abrasive scrubbing.

Can sensitive skin use Sexapeel?
For sensitive facial skin, use Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel. It was formulated as the gentler facial option and is fragrance-free. Start once weekly and increase only as your skin tolerates it.

Can I use the Spray on my face?
If your facial skin is not sensitive, yes. If you have sensitive or reactive skin, or simply aren't sure, use the Gommage Peeling Gel on your face instead.

Can I use Sexapeel with retinol or tretinoin?
Yes, but not on the same day. Alternate your Sexapeel and retinoid/tretinoin days.

Can I use the Body Spray before self-tanner?
Yes. Exfoliating rough, dry surface buildup before self-tanner helps create a smoother starting canvas. Avoid using it on freshly shaved or irritated skin.

Can I use these before makeup?
Yes. The Face Gel is especially useful when foundation keeps catching on flaky or uneven-looking texture. Follow with hydration and moisturizer before applying makeup.

How often should I use them?
Face Gel: 1–3 times per week.
Body Spray: every other day as needed and tolerated.

Better Skin. Even Better Makeup.

When makeup keeps catching on texture, another foundation isn't always the answer.

Start with the skin underneath it.

A Duo of our Best-sellers

1. SexApeel™ Instant Exfoliation Spray is arguably the most famous product in Sonia Roselli’s line. It’s a "gommage" style exfoliator, which is a gentle, French-inspired technique (popularized in Korean beauty) that "erases" dead skin without the need for harsh scrubbing or gritty beads.
2. Water Balm Skin Prep is the "sealant" that makes skin glow. It is a unique 5-in-1 gel-cream designed to replace your toner, serum, day cream, night cream, and makeup primer. It’s a cult favorite among professional makeup artists because it gives the skin a "plumped from within" look that acts like a real-life Instagram filter.

CTA: SHOP CONCEALER SKIN PREP

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel

Your targeted eye-area skincare.

Hydrates.

Cushions.

Helps smooth the look of fine lines.

Helps the eye area look softer and more conditioned over time.

And when you wear makeup, it gives concealer a better-prepared surface.

Water Balm

Your moisturizing seal and smoothing step.

Water Balm goes right over Eye Gel to add another layer of hydration and cushion.

It helps lock everything in while creating a soft, smooth, makeup-ready finish.

Together, they are your concealer skin prep.

Eye Gel first. Water Balm on top. Concealer after.

WHAT IS THE CONCEALER SKIN PREP KIT?

The Concealer Skin Prep Kit is a two-step skincare routine made specifically for the skin underneath your concealer.

It exists for the person who keeps buying new concealers but keeps getting the same result.

Dry-looking under-eyes.

Concealer settling into lines.

Cakey texture by midday.

Powder making everything look worse.

Instead of adding another makeup product, this kit starts with the skin.

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel gives the eye area targeted hydration and peptide care.

Water Balm goes over it to cushion, moisturize, and create a smoother-looking finish.

Then you apply your concealer.

Great skincare. Better makeup.

WHY DOES THIS KIT EXIST?

Because concealer cannot hide dry-looking texture without sitting on top of it.

And more powder does not add hydration.

If every concealer you try ends up settling into the same lines or looking dry in the same places, the formula in your concealer may not be the only thing worth changing.

Look underneath it.

Your under-eye area needs skincare too.

This kit gives it hydration.

Cushion.

Moisture.

Peptide care.

A smoother-looking finish.

And a simple routine that works whether you wear makeup that day or not.

WHY EYE GEL + WATER BALM?

Think of them like PB&J.

They do different jobs.

They just make more sense together.

Eye Gel goes first.

It gives the delicate eye area targeted hydration and peptide care.

It helps the area feel cushioned and helps soften the look of fine lines.

Water Balm goes on top.

It adds another layer of hydration.

It helps seal everything in.

And its smoothing texture creates a soft-focus finish before makeup.

Then comes concealer.

Now your concealer is going over hydrated, cushioned, smoother-looking skin.

Not another layer of primer.

Skincare is the prep.

TWO SKINCARE STEPS. ONE BETTER CANVAS.

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel

What it does as skincare

Hydrates the delicate eye area.

Helps the skin feel cushioned and comfortable.

Helps smooth the look of fine lines.

Supports a softer, more resilient-looking eye area with consistent use.

Helps the under-eye area look brighter and more even.

Why makeup wearers care

Dry-looking skin can make concealer look dry too.

Eye Gel gives concealer a hydrated, smoother-looking surface to sit on.

That means makeup can apply more evenly and visible settling can look less obvious.

Water Balm

What it does as skincare

Delivers lasting hydration.

Helps skin feel softer and more supple.

Supports a comfortable moisture barrier with ceramides and amino acids.

Helps seal in hydration.

Creates a smooth, conditioned finish.

Why makeup wearers care

Water Balm goes over your eye care to add cushion and smooth the surface.

Its texture helps create that soft-focus, almost photo-filter-looking finish Sonia wants before concealer.

No extra primer layer.

No piling more makeup on top of dry-looking skin.

SKINCARE THAT DOES MORE THAN PREP

These formulas were not created just to make makeup look better for a few hours.

They are daily skincare.

4-Peptide Complex: Included

Supports the look of smoother, more resilient skin around the eye area with consistent use.

Amino Acid Complex: Included

Water Balm contains a full amino acid complex to support hydrated, comfortable-feeling skin.

Ceramides: Included

Help support the skin's moisture barrier and keep dry-looking skin feeling cushioned.

Niacinamide: Included

Supports a brighter, more even-looking eye area.

Squalane: Included

Adds lightweight moisture and helps the delicate eye area feel soft and supple.

Hydrolyzed Silk: Included

Helps Water Balm create its soft, silky, smoothing finish on the skin.

WHY THE FORMULAS WORK SO WELL TOGETHER

Eye Gel brings targeted eye care.

Water Balm brings the seal.

Eye Gel delivers:

Peptides
Niacinamide
Glucosyl Ceramide
Squalane
Glycerin
Skin-smoothing texture ingredients

Water Balm delivers:

Ceramide 3
A full amino acid complex
Glycerin
Sodium PCA
Betaine
Hydrolyzed Silk
Fermented Rice Extract
Skin-smoothing silicones

The result is a routine that addresses both sides of the problem.

Care for the skin.

Then create a smoother surface for makeup.

SONIA'S UNDER-EYE SKIN PREP TECHNIQUE

Want the full makeup-artist method?

Add Water Elixir before the two products in this kit.

Water Elixir is sold separately.

Step 1: Water Elixir

Press a thin layer around the eye area.

Use it underneath the eye and above the eye area as your first lightweight hydration step.

Do not drench the skin.

A thin layer is enough.

Step 2: Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel

Apply a small amount along the orbital bone.

Use your ring finger.

Tap gently.

Do not drag or rub.

Give it a moment to settle into the skin.

Step 3: Water Balm

Press a thin layer of Water Balm right over your eye prep.

This is Sonia's finishing step.

It adds cushion.

Helps seal in hydration.

And creates that soft, smooth, photo-filter-looking finish before concealer.

Step 4: Let it settle

Your skin should feel hydrated and smooth.

Not wet.

Not slippery.

Not heavily coated.

Step 5: Apply concealer

Use a thin layer.

Add more only where you actually need it.

Then use powder only where you need it.

Water Elixir hydrates.

Eye Gel targets + smooths.

Water Balm cushions + seals.

Then makeup.

SONIA'S SECRET WAS NEVER MORE CONCEALER

As a professional makeup artist, Sonia learned that dry-looking under-eyyes do not usually look better when you keep adding product.

More concealer can look heavier.

More powder can make dry-looking texture more obvious.

So instead of starting with makeup, she started with hydration.

A lightweight layer first.

Targeted eye care next.

Then a thin layer of Water Balm over everything to cushion and smooth the finish.

That became her prep technique for dry, texture-prone under-eyes.

Prep first. Concealer second.

HOW TO USE THE KIT WITHOUT WATER ELIXIR

You do not need Water Elixir to use the Concealer Skin Prep Kit.

The kit works as a simple two-step routine.

1. Apply Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel

Use a small amount.

Tap gently around the orbital area.

2. Apply Water Balm on top

Use a thin layer.

Press it into the skin.

3. Let the layers settle

The area should feel soft and cushioned rather than wet.

4. Apply concealer

Use a thin layer.

Add only where needed.

Eye Gel. Water Balm. Concealer.

Simple.

YOUR CONCEALER MAY NOT NEED MORE POWDER

You know what happens.

Your concealer starts settling.

So you powder it.

Then the area looks drier.

So you add more concealer.

Now it looks heavier.

By noon, the makeup you used to make your eyes look better is making every bit of texture more obvious.

Stop adding.

Start underneath.

Hydrate.

Cushion.

Smooth.

Then use less makeup where you can.

WHAT YOU MAY NOTICE

PLACEHOLDER TIMELINE

Final timing should be validated against customer review data before publication.

Instantly

Skin feels hydrated, cushioned, and smoother.

The eye area feels softer and better prepared before concealer.

Water Balm creates an immediate silky, soft-focus finish on the surface.

After 1 Week

Skin may feel more consistently hydrated and comfortable.

Dry-looking texture may appear less obvious.

Concealer may apply more evenly as the skin underneath stays better conditioned.

After 1 Month

The eye area may look smoother and more conditioned with consistent skincare.

The peptide eye care continues to support the look of smoother, more resilient skin.

And the daily hydration habit gives makeup a better starting point every time you wear it.

REAL SKIN MOVES

We are not going to tell you your concealer will never crease.

Your eyes move.

You smile.

You squint.

You blink.

Some settling is normal.

The goal is not to erase every line.

The goal is to give concealer hydrated, smoother-looking skin underneath it so the makeup looks less dry, less heavy, and less obvious.

That is a promise we can stand behind.

THIS KIT IS FOR YOU IF...

Your concealer settles into fine lines.

Your under-eyes look dry after makeup.

Powder makes the area look worse.

Concealer looks good when you first apply it and cakey later.

Your current eye cream feels too heavy under concealer.

You keep changing concealers and getting the same result.

You want skincare that also makes sense under makeup.

You want fewer unnecessary layers.

You want to use less powder.

You want your concealer to look more like makeup on skin and less like product sitting on top.

THE SKINCARE BENEFITS

Helps smooth the look of fine lines

The Eye Gel uses a four-peptide complex designed to support smoother, more resilient-looking skin with consistent use.

Deeply hydrates

Glycerin, squalane, Sodium PCA, betaine, sorbitol, and other hydration-supporting ingredients help keep dry-looking skin feeling soft and comfortable.

Helps support the moisture barrier

Ceramides and amino acids help support comfortable, hydrated skin.

Softens + cushions

The combination of eye-area hydrators and Water Balm creates the cushioned feel dry under-eyes are often missing.

Supports a more even-looking eye area

Niacinamide supports a brighter, more even-looking appearance around the eyes.

Creates a smooth, soft-focus finish

Water Balm's hydrolyzed silk and smoothing texture ingredients help create a silky surface before makeup.

WHY NOT JUST BUY ANOTHER EYE CREAM?

Because this kit is not built around the idea that your eye cream lives in a separate universe from your makeup.

You wear concealer.

Your skincare needs to work with that.

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel gives the eye area targeted care.

Water Balm gives that skincare the moisturizing seal and smoothing finish Sonia uses before makeup.

You get the skincare benefits even when you wear nothing on top.

And when you do wear concealer, your skin is already prepped.

WHY NOT JUST USE WATER BALM?

Because Eye Gel and Water Balm have different jobs.

Eye Gel gives the eye area targeted peptide care and lightweight hydration.

Water Balm goes over it to add cushion, moisture, and a smoothing finish.

One does not replace the other in this routine.

Target first. Seal second.

DO I NEED PRIMER?

No.

You do not need a separate primer with this routine.

Your skincare is your skin prep.

Eye Gel prepares the eye area through hydration and smoothing care.

Water Balm completes the prep by adding moisture, cushion, and a soft-focus finish.

Let everything settle.

Then apply your makeup.

HOW MUCH SHOULD I USE?

Less than you probably think.

Eye Gel

Use a small amount.

A thick layer is not better.

Tap it gently around the orbital area.

Water Balm

Use a thin layer over the eye prep.

Your skin should feel smooth and cushioned.

Not coated.

Too much skincare underneath concealer can create unnecessary movement.

SHOULD I USE POWDER?

You can.

But you may not need as much.

If powder makes your under-eyyes look dry or makes lines more obvious, try using it only where you actually need it.

Prep first.

Use a thin layer of concealer.

Then decide if powder is necessary.

Do not powder automatically just because someone told you that you have to.

BUILT BY SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS BOTH SIDES

Sonia Roselli has worked as a professional makeup artist since 1990.

She is also a licensed esthetician.

That matters.

She understands what skin needs.

And she understands what happens when you put concealer on it five minutes later.

The products were designed around both sides of the mirror.

Great skincare. Better makeup.

Is Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel an eye cream?

Yes.

It is daily eye skincare with a four-peptide complex, hydration-supporting ingredients, and a texture designed to work well underneath concealer.

Is Water Balm a moisturizer?

Yes.

Water Balm is a daily moisturizer and smoothing skincare step.

In this routine, it is layered over Eye Gel to help cushion the eye area and seal in hydration.

Can I use this kit without makeup?

Yes.

Both products are skincare.

Use them whether you wear concealer that day or not.

Can I use the products morning and night?

Yes.

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel is designed for morning and evening use.

Water Balm can also be used as part of your daily skincare routine.

Will the kit stop concealer from creasing?

We do not promise zero creasing.

Faces move.

Some settling is normal.

The goal is to hydrate and smooth the look of the skin underneath so concealer can apply more evenly and look less dry.

Why does my concealer settle into fine lines?

Dry-looking skin, too much product underneath, heavy concealer, and too much powder can all make visible settling more obvious.

The eye area also moves constantly.

Better skin prep gives the concealer a better surface to sit on.

What if my concealer looks dry even when I use eye cream?

Your eye cream may not be giving you the right combination of hydration, texture, and makeup compatibility.

Try using a small amount of Eye Gel followed by a thin layer of Water Balm.

Let the layers settle before applying concealer.

Can I put Water Balm around my eyes?

Yes, in this routine Water Balm is pressed over the Eye Gel as the moisturizing and smoothing layer.

Use a small amount.

Can I put Water Balm on my whole face too?

Yes.

Water Balm is a face moisturizer.

You can use it over the face as your final moisturizing skincare step before sunscreen and makeup.

How long should I wait before concealer?

Allow the skincare to settle before applying makeup.

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel is documented to settle for approximately 60 to 90 seconds before concealer.

When layering Water Balm on top, wait until the final layer feels smooth and settled rather than wet or slippery.

How much concealer should I use?

Start thin.

Add more only where you need additional coverage.

Using more concealer does not automatically make the area look smoother.

Should I use powder after concealer?

Only if you need it.

If powder makes your under-eyyes look dry, use less or apply it only to areas that need setting.

Will this get rid of dark circles?

The kit is not designed to remove genetic or structural dark circles.

It helps care for the eye area and creates a better-prepared surface for the concealer you use to even the appearance of darkness.

Will the Eye Gel erase wrinkles?

No.

It is cosmetic skincare.

The peptide complex supports the look of smoother, more resilient skin with consistent use.

It does not erase wrinkles or stop facial movement.

Is the kit fragrance-free?

Current product documentation identifies both Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel and Water Balm as fragrance-free.

Does Water Balm contain ceramides?

Yes.

Water Balm contains Ceramide 3 along with a full amino acid complex.

Does Water Balm contain amino acids?

Yes.

The formula contains glycine, serine, alanine, glutamic acid, arginine, lysine, threonine, and proline.

Does Eye Gel contain peptides?

Current product documentation identifies a four-peptide complex including Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7.

Does Eye Gel contain niacinamide?

Current product documentation lists niacinamide in the Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel formula.

Does Water Balm contain niacinamide?

No.

Water Balm does not list niacinamide in its current formula.

What if I have very sensitive skin?

Patch test new skincare before using it around the eye area.

If you have known ingredient allergies or an existing medical skin condition, check the ingredient list carefully and speak with your healthcare professional when appropriate.

Does Water Balm contain soy?

Yes.

Water Balm contains soy-derived ingredients.

If you have a known soy sensitivity, patch test first or avoid the product.

Does Water Balm contain silk?

Yes.

Water Balm contains hydrolyzed silk.

If you have a known silk sensitivity, check with your healthcare professional or avoid use.

BEFORE YOU BUY ANOTHER CONCEALER

If every concealer ends up looking dry in the same places, settling into the same lines, or getting worse when you add powder, stop changing the top layer for a minute.

Change what goes underneath it.

Eye Gel first.

Water Balm on top.

Then concealer.

Daily skincare when you are bare-faced.

Skin prep when you wear makeup.

The Sonia Roselli Beauty Concealer Skin Prep Kit is a two-product skincare set containing Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel and Water Balm.

It is designed for makeup wearers whose concealer tends to look dry, settle visibly into fine lines, or look heavier after powder.

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel provides targeted eye-area hydration and peptide care and helps create a smoother-looking surface underneath concealer.

Water Balm is layered over the Eye Gel to add hydration, cushion the skin, help seal in moisture, and create a smoother, soft-focus finish before makeup.

A separate makeup primer is not needed with this routine.

For Sonia Roselli's fuller makeup-artist prep technique, Water Elixir can be applied in a thin layer before Eye Gel, followed by Water Balm. Water Elixir is sold separately.

The kit does not promise zero creasing because facial movement and some makeup settling are normal.

The goal is hydrated, cushioned, smoother-looking skin and better-looking concealer.

Your concealer may not be the problem. Your skin prep may be.

Better Skin. Better Makeup.

Three-step skin prep for hydrated, cushioned, makeup-ready skin.

Great makeup starts with what’s underneath it.

The Ageless Beauty Kit is a three-step skincare and skin prep routine designed to flood skin with hydration, add lightweight nourishment, and seal it all in before makeup.

Water. Oil. Seal.

Water Elixir hydrates.
Water Oil adds lightweight nourishment and softness.
Water Balm seals in moisture and creates a smooth, cushioned surface for makeup.

Three full-size products.
Three simple steps.
One complete skin prep routine.

When your makeup doesn't sit right, look underneath it.

Foundation clinging to dry patches?

Concealer looking heavy?

Makeup separating, settling, or looking more like makeup than skin?

Before you blame your foundation, look at the skin underneath it.

When skin is dehydrated, dry, or under-prepped, even great makeup can struggle.

The Ageless Beauty Kit layers hydration, lightweight nourishment, and moisture in the right order to help skin feel soft, supple, and cushioned before foundation ever touches it.

The goal isn't more makeup.

It's better-prepped skin so your makeup looks more like skin.

Water. Oil. Seal.

Three products. Three different jobs.

1. WATER: Water Elixir

Start with hydration.

Water Elixir is a lightweight essence made with Hyaluronic Acid, amino acids, and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5.

For your skin:
Helps skin feel hydrated, soft, and supple.

For your makeup:
Creates a hydrated base so foundation has a better surface to sit on.

How to use:
Press 2 pumps into cleansed, damp skin.

2. OIL: Water Oil

Next, add lightweight nourishment.

Water Oil combines Squalane, Sea Buckthorn Oil, Camellia Oil, Jojoba Oil, and other conditioning oils in a lightweight formula.

For your skin:
Helps skin feel softer, more supple, and comfortably nourished.

For your makeup:
Adds softness and slip to help prevent makeup from looking dry, patchy, or overly textured.

How to use:
Warm 1 pump between your palms and press into skin while it is still damp from Water Elixir.

3. SEAL: Water Balm

Finish with moisture.

Water Balm is a cushiony moisturizer made with Ceramide 3, Hydrolyzed Silk, amino acids, and humectants.

For your skin:
Helps skin feel moisturized, cushioned, and comfortable.

For your makeup:
Creates the final soft, hydrated surface before foundation and concealer.

How to use:
Warm a pea-sized amount between your fingertips and press into skin. Wait about 60 seconds before applying makeup.

Is This Kit For You?

The Ageless Beauty Kit may be a good fit if:

• Foundation clings to dry areas.

• Concealer looks dry or heavy.

• Makeup emphasizes texture.

• Your skin feels tight or dehydrated.

• Moisturizer alone doesn't feel like enough.

• Your makeup looks good at first but worse as the day goes on.

• You want more softness and cushion underneath makeup.

• You want skincare and skin prep in one routine.

• You want a simple routine instead of layering a dozen products.

Don't prep for your age. Prep for the skin in front of you.

Whether you're 25, 45, or 75, skin can be dry, dehydrated, oily, sensitive, or under-prepped.

Your age doesn't determine your skin prep.

Your skin does.

Skincare First. Skin Prep Built In.

This isn't a makeup primer pretending to be skincare.

Every product has a skincare job.

Water Elixir: hydration.
Water Oil: nourishment.
Water Balm: moisture + seal.

Together, they create a simple Water → Oil → Seal routine you can use morning and night, whether you're wearing makeup or not.

And when you are wearing makeup?

You're starting with better-prepped skin.

Better skin. Even better makeup.
