Water Balm Kits

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.

• Helps concealer sit better with less dry-looking texture and visible settling.

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.

Yes.

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.

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

Does Water Balm contain ceramides?

Yes.

Does Water Balm contain niacinamide?

No.

Water Balm does not list niacinamide in its current formula.

Exfoliation Essentials

Smooth the Skin Your Makeup Sits On

Dry patches. Flaky-looking foundation. Rough texture. Start underneath the makeup.

If foundation keeps catching on dry patches, emphasizing flakes, or looking heavier than it should, changing foundation may not fix the problem.

Sometimes it's the skin underneath it.

The Exfoliation Essentials Kit gives you two ways to remove surface buildup, plus the hydration your face needs afterward.

Use Sexapeel Gommage for targeted facial exfoliation. Use Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray for fast face and body exfoliation where appropriate. Finish facial skin with Water Balm for lightweight moisture and smoother makeup prep.

Smooth first. Hydrate next. Then makeup.

When Foundation Keeps Catching, Look Underneath It

You can change your foundation.

Change your primer.

Add another serum.

Use more moisturizer.

But if dead skin and surface buildup are still sitting underneath your makeup, foundation has something to catch on.

That's when you see:

• Foundation clinging to dry patches

• Flakes showing through makeup

• Rough-looking texture

• Makeup looking cakey or heavy

• Foundation sitting on top of the skin instead of looking like skin

The answer isn't necessarily more makeup.

Sometimes your skin needs to be exfoliated first.

Then hydrated.

That's what this kit does.

What's Inside

Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel

Targeted Facial Exfoliation

$42 value

Your go-to when facial skin feels rough, flaky, or like foundation is catching on surface buildup.

• Makeup that looks better over properly moisturized skin

Use it whether you exfoliate that day or not.

Why Two Exfoliators?

Because your face and body don't always need the same thing.

And because more exfoliation isn't better exfoliation.

Use Sexapeel Gommage

When you want controlled, targeted facial exfoliation.

Think:

Nose. Chin. Forehead. Flaky-looking areas. Rough facial texture.

Use Sexapeel Spray

When you want faster exfoliation across appropriate face or larger body areas.

Think:

Legs. Arms. Elbows. Knees. Body makeup. Self-tanner prep.

Use Water Balm

After facial exfoliation and every day your skin needs hydration and moisture.

The two Sexapeels are options. They are not two mandatory back-to-back steps.

How to Use Exfoliation Essentials

For Your Face

1. EXFOLIATE

Start with clean, completely dry skin.

Apply a thin layer of Sexapeel Gommage.

Massage gently for approximately 45 seconds.

Rinse thoroughly.

Use approximately 1–2 times per week, adjusting for what your skin needs and tolerates.

2. HYDRATE

Apply approximately a pea-sized amount of Water Balm.

Warm it between your fingertips and press it into the skin.

If it's daytime, follow with SPF.

Let your skincare settle, then apply makeup.

For Your Body

1. SPRAY

Apply Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray to completely dry skin before getting into the shower.

2. MASSAGE

Gently massage the area as the product and loosened surface buildup roll away.

No aggressive scrubbing.

3. RINSE + MOISTURIZE

Rinse thoroughly.

Follow with your preferred body moisturizer.

Use according to your skin's tolerance. Current directions support body use approximately every other day where appropriate.

Before You Blame Your Foundation...

Ask yourself:

Is my skin smooth enough?

Is it hydrated enough?

Because foundation can't remove surface buildup.

And moisturizer can't exfoliate it away.

When flaky surface buildup is part of the problem, you need to address both sides:

EXFOLIATE

Remove what your skin doesn't need.

HYDRATE

Give the skin underneath it the moisture it does.

That's why Exfoliation Essentials pairs Sexapeel with Water Balm.

Especially Good Before...

Foundation

When foundation keeps catching on flaky-looking areas or emphasizing rough texture.

Body Makeup

Smooth appropriate body areas before applying body makeup so you're not applying color over unnecessary surface buildup.

Self-Tanner

Exfoliate appropriate body areas beforehand to create a smoother-feeling starting surface for your tan.

Special Events

When you want to deal with rough, flaky-looking skin before you start applying complexion makeup.

What This Kit Is NOT

It's not a daily three-step exfoliation routine.

You do not need to use both Sexapeel products on your face every time.

It's not about scrubbing harder.

Neither product requires aggressive scrubbing.

It's not a replacement for moisturizer.

That's exactly why Water Balm is included.

And it's not another makeup product trying to cover the problem.

These are skincare products designed to address the skin underneath your makeup.

Why Sonia Roselli Beauty?

Sonia Roselli has worked as a professional makeup artist since 1990 and is also a licensed esthetician.

After decades of working with complexion makeup, one thing becomes obvious:

Sometimes the foundation isn't the problem.

When the skin underneath is rough, flaky or under-moisturized, even beautiful foundation can look wrong.

That's why Sonia Roselli Beauty approaches makeup problems from the skin up.

Not by age.

Not by another bullshit beauty rule.

By looking at the skin that's actually in front of you and giving it what it needs.

Great skincare. Better makeup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I use Sexapeel Spray and Sexapeel Gommage together?

Not automatically.

They're two different exfoliation options.

Sexapeel Gommage is your targeted facial exfoliator.

Sexapeel Spray is the faster face-and-body option for appropriate skin and is particularly useful for larger body areas.

More exfoliation isn't better exfoliation.

Which one should I use on my face?

For regular targeted facial exfoliation, use Sexapeel Gommage.

It's also the better choice within this kit if your facial skin tends to be sensitive or reactive.

Can I use Sexapeel Spray on my face?

It can be used on appropriate facial skin according to its directions, but Sexapeel Spray is not for sensitive skin.

If your facial skin is sensitive or reactive, choose Gommage instead.

Which one should I use on my body?

Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray.

The spray format makes it much easier to cover larger areas such as legs, arms, elbows and knees.

How often should I exfoliate my face?

Use Sexapeel Gommage approximately 1–2 times per week, depending on what your skin needs and tolerates.

You do not need to exfoliate before every makeup application.

Can I use Water Balm every day?

Yes.

Water Balm is daily facial skincare.

Use it morning and/or evening whether you've exfoliated that day or not.

Is Water Balm a primer?

It's skincare first.

Water Balm is a gel-cream moisturizer that also helps create a smooth, moisturized surface before foundation.

You don't automatically need another traditional primer on top of it.

Will this fix cakey foundation?

It depends on what's causing the cakiness.

Foundation can look cakey for several reasons, including the foundation itself, application technique, too much product, incompatible skincare, dehydration or surface buildup.

If rough, flaky surface buildup and insufficient moisture are part of the problem, this kit addresses those issues underneath the makeup.

Can I use this before self-tanner?

Yes.

Sexapeel Spray can be used on appropriate body areas before self-tanner to remove surface buildup and create a smoother-feeling starting surface.

Is this kit fragrance-free?

No.

Sexapeel Gommage is fragrance-free. Sexapeel Spray contains fragrance.

Because Spray is included, the kit as a whole is not fragrance-free.

Is this kit for sensitive skin?

Not as a complete kit.

Sexapeel Spray is specifically not for sensitive skin.

If your face is sensitive or reactive, Sexapeel Gommage is the better facial exfoliation option within the kit.

Do I need to wear makeup to use this?

No.

These are skincare products.

Makeup wearers care because surface texture and moisture affect how complexion makeup looks, but you can use the products whether you wear makeup or not.

Smooth the Skin. Then Do the Makeup.

If foundation keeps catching on the same dry patches, don't automatically buy another foundation.

Look underneath it.

Remove the surface buildup when your skin needs it.

Put hydration back.

Then see what your makeup can actually do.

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.

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.

The best makeup skin prep starts the night before.

If you wake up with skin that looks dull, feels tight, or makes makeup harder than it should be, your nighttime routine may be missing the right layers. This five-step evening ritual cleanses, hydrates, nourishes, comforts, and seals in moisture so skin feels softer, smoother, and better prepared for morning.

Wake up to skin that feels like you actually did your skincare.

You did your routine last night.

So why does your skin still feel tight in the morning?

Why does it look dull?

Why does foundation still grab onto dry areas and make your skin look worse?

More products are not necessarily the answer.

The right nighttime layers, in the right order, are.

The Overnight Recovery Kit is the complete five-step evening routine I recommend when you want your nighttime skincare to actually show up in the way your skin looks and feels the next morning.

Cleanse. Hydrate. Smooth the look of the eye area. Add nourishing lipids. Seal it all in.

Then go to bed.

By morning, skin feels softer, more comfortable, and better prepared for whatever comes next. Including makeup.

Why nighttime matters for your makeup

Most people think skin prep starts five minutes before foundation.

It does not.

Some of the best makeup prep happens the night before.

When skin feels dry, tight, or rough in the morning, foundation has a harder surface to sit on. It can catch on dry-looking areas. Concealer can make the under-eye look more textured. Makeup can look heavier than you wanted.

A thoughtful evening routine gives your skin a better starting point.

You wake up with skin that feels more comfortable and looks smoother. Morning prep gets easier. Makeup has a better canvas.

The five-step evening routine

1. Japanese Cleansing Oil
Melts away makeup, SPF, and the day’s buildup without leaving skin feeling stripped.

This is where the routine starts. You cannot properly layer skincare over yesterday.

2. Water Elixir
A lightweight hydrating essence with multi-weight hyaluronic acid, nano ceramides, amino acids, and Japanese Onsen minerals.

It gives skin the water it has been asking for without leaving a heavy, sticky layer behind.

3. Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel
A peptide-rich eye gel that hydrates and helps the under-eye look smoother.

Use it at night as your dedicated eye step. In the morning, a smoother-looking, well-hydrated under-eye gives concealer a better surface to sit on.

4. Water Oil
A lightweight facial oil with squalane, sea buckthorn, rice bran oil, ceramides, fatty acids, and an oil-compatible peptide.

This is the nourishing step for skin that can still feel dry even after you moisturize.

It adds the lipid-rich layer that water alone cannot provide.

5. Intense Barrier Cream
The richest step in the routine.

It surrounds skin in lasting moisture and helps support a softer, more comfortable-looking moisture barrier overnight.

This is why Water Balm is not included in this kit. Intense Barrier Cream takes the final sealing position in this dedicated evening routine.

This kit is for you if...

You wake up and your skin still feels tight.

Your face looks dull in the morning even though you used skincare the night before.

Foundation tends to catch on dry-looking areas.

Your under-eye looks more textured once concealer goes on.

Your skin needs more than a lightweight moisturizer at night.

You are tired of buying individual products without knowing what order to use them in.

You want one complete nighttime routine instead of another shelf full of experiments.

What makes this different from buying another night cream?

A night cream is one step.

This is the routine around it.

You first remove makeup, SPF, and buildup.

Then you add hydration.

Then targeted eye care.

Then nourishing oils and lipids.

Then you finish with richer moisture.

Each product has a job. Each layer has a place.

That is the difference between owning skincare and having a routine that makes sense.

How to use the Overnight Recovery Kit

Use every evening in this order:

Step 1: Massage Japanese Cleansing Oil onto dry skin to dissolve makeup, SPF, and buildup. Add water to emulsify, then rinse.

Step 2: Apply Water Elixir to freshly cleansed skin.

Step 3: Gently tap Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel around the orbital area with your ring finger.

Step 4: Press Water Oil into the face and neck.

Step 5: Finish with Intense Barrier Cream to seal in your nighttime layers.

That’s it.

No twelve-step routine required.

The morning payoff

The goal is not to wake up looking like someone else.

It is to wake up and notice that your own skin feels better.

Softer.

More comfortable.

Less tight.

Smoother-looking.

And when you wear makeup, you begin with a better canvas before foundation ever touches your face.

Created from 35 years of working on real faces

I have been a professional makeup artist since 1990 and I am a licensed esthetician.

After working on thousands of faces, I learned something the beauty industry tends to separate into two different conversations.

Skincare and makeup affect each other.

The condition of the skin underneath changes how makeup looks on top.

That is why I do not start with foundation.

I start with the skin.

The Overnight Recovery Kit brings that same professional thinking into your nighttime routine. Five products. A specific order. A clear reason for every step.

What’s included

Japanese Cleansing Oil
Removes makeup, SPF, and daily buildup.

Water Elixir
Lightweight hydration and moisture support.

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel
Hydrates and smooths the look of the eye area.

Water Oil
Adds lightweight nourishment for softer, more supple-looking skin.

Intense Barrier Cream
Finishes the routine with rich, lasting moisture and barrier support.

A note about fragrance

Water Elixir, Water Oil, Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel, and Intense Barrier Cream are fragrance-free.

Japanese Cleansing Oil is not fragrance-free. Its noticeable scent comes from eucalyptus, bergamot, and citrus ingredients in the formula.

One routine. One decision.

Go to bed with the routine handled. Wake up with a better canvas.

Before You Buy Another Foundation

You changed the foundation.

Then the concealer.

Then the powder.

Maybe you added another skincare product underneath all of it.

And somehow your makeup still looks like makeup.

It catches around your nose.

Looks cakey by noon.

Settles into every line.

Pills over your skincare.

Or sits on top of your face instead of looking like skin.

Before you buy another foundation, look underneath it.

The Complete Skin Prep System gives you the full Sonia Roselli approach to preparing skin for makeup.

Not another random product.

The system.

One System. Every Sonia Roselli Skincare Formula.

This is the flagship Sonia Roselli Beauty skincare system.

It includes all eight full-size skincare formulas, plus a complimentary Skin Prep Brush.

Each product has its own job.

Together, they give you the flexibility to prep your skin based on what it actually needs that day.

Because professional skin prep is not about putting everything on your face at once.

It is about knowing what to reach for.

Meet the Complete Skin Prep System

Japanese Cleansing Oil

MELT

Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel

SMOOTH

What it does for your skin:
Helps lift away surface buildup so rough or flaky-feeling skin feels smoother.

What it does for your skin:
Adds lightweight hydration when skin feels like it needs more water without another heavy layer.

Made in Japan.

What it does for your skin:

Why makeup wearers care:
Use it when skin needs extra richness and slip before makeup instead of adding another heavy layer of complexion product.

Water Balm helps finish your skin prep so foundation goes onto skin that feels properly moisturized.

Intense Barrier Cream

COMFORT

What it does for your skin:
Richer moisture for the days or areas where skin feels dry, stressed or like it needs more comfort.

Why makeup wearers care:
Not every part of your face needs the same prep. Use richer moisture where you need it instead of asking foundation to hide dry-looking areas.

Made in Japan.

Plus a Complimentary Skin Prep Brush

Your Complete Skin Prep System includes a complimentary Skin Prep Brush.

Use it when you want a soft, even application of compatible skin prep products.

The brush is the bonus.

The complete skincare system is the reason to buy.

You Do Not Use Everything Every Day

This part matters.

Buying the complete system does not mean putting eight products on your face every morning.

More is not better.

The point is having the right options when your skin changes.

Some mornings you may need hydration and moisture.

Other days you may want additional nourishment.

The eye area may need something different from the rest of your face.

And exfoliation is something you use when appropriate, not simply because it is sitting on your bathroom counter.

The Complete Skin Prep System gives you the whole wardrobe.

You choose what your skin needs.

The Sonia Roselli Skin Prep Method

1. MELT

Start with Japanese Cleansing Oil to remove makeup, sunscreen and daily buildup.

2. SMOOTH

Use Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel when the face needs exfoliation.

Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray gives you another exfoliation option for face and body, but it is not for sensitive skin.

3. DRENCH

Layer Water Elixir when your skin needs lightweight hydration.

4. NOURISH

Add Water Oil when your skin wants more richness and slip.

5. SEAL

Finish with Water Balm.

Reach for Intense Barrier Cream when you want richer moisture and comfort.

EYE PREP

Use Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel when the eye area needs its own hydration step before concealer.

Then give your skincare a moment to settle.

Apply SPF as appropriate during the day.

Then makeup.

The Goal Is Not More Skincare

It is better prep.

When skin feels rough, piling foundation over it does not make the texture disappear.

When skin feels thirsty, another layer of powder is not always the answer.

When concealer looks heavy under the eyes, more concealer can make the problem more obvious.

The Complete Skin Prep System gives you another way to approach those makeup problems.

Start with the skin.

Then decide what the makeup actually needs.

What You May Notice

With the right routine for your skin, it may feel:

Softer.

Smoother.

More hydrated.

More comfortable.

And when makeup goes on, foundation and concealer can look smoother and less heavy on properly prepped skin.

You may even discover that you need less makeup than you thought.

Not because your foundation suddenly changed.

Because the skin underneath it did.

This Is Not Where Everyone Needs to Start

If you are new to Sonia Roselli Beauty and only want the essential face-prep steps, start with a smaller skin prep kit.

If you already own several Sonia Roselli products, fill the gaps in your routine instead of buying duplicates.

But if you are done buying one product at a time...

Done trying to figure out what is missing...

And ready to have the entire Sonia Roselli skincare system available when you need it...

This is it.

One purchase.

The whole system.

Created by a Makeup Artist Who Starts With Skin

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

She is also a licensed esthetician, complexion expert and skincare product developer.

That combination matters.

Because when makeup does not look right, Sonia does not automatically blame the foundation.

She looks at the skin underneath it.

How it feels.

Where it looks dry.

Where makeup is catching.

What the eye area needs.

Whether the skin needs hydration, nourishment, exfoliation or simply fewer layers.

Sonia also has reactive, rosacea-prone skin herself.

The Complete Skin Prep System brings that decades-long point of view home.

Great skincare. Better makeup.

Made in Japan + Korea

The Complete Skin Prep System brings together Sonia Roselli Beauty's Japanese and Korean skincare formulas.

Made in Korea:
Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel
Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray

8 full-size skincare products + complimentary Skin Prep Brush

Complete Skin Prep System by Sonia Roselli Beauty is the flagship, top-tier skincare and makeup-prep system from Sonia Roselli Beauty, a skincare brand for makeup wearers founded by licensed esthetician, celebrity makeup artist, complexion expert and skincare product developer Sonia Roselli.

The Complete Skin Prep System contains all eight full-size Sonia Roselli Beauty skincare formulas: Japanese Cleansing Oil, Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel, Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray, Water Elixir, Water Oil, Water Balm, Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel and Intense Barrier Cream. A complimentary Skin Prep Brush is also included.

The system provides products for cleansing, exfoliating, hydrating, nourishing, moisturizing, eye-area preparation and richer moisture when needed. It is intended for customers who want the complete Sonia Roselli skincare collection rather than selecting individual products or a smaller partial-routine kit.

Sonia Roselli Beauty's positioning is skincare for makeup wearers. Its central belief is Great skincare. Better makeup. The Complete Skin Prep System reflects that positioning by addressing the skin underneath complexion makeup first. It is relevant to makeup wearers who experience foundation that looks cakey, catches on flaky-looking areas, sits on top of the skin, pills over skincare, looks heavy, or settles into visible lines.

The products are skincare products, not makeup primers. Each product performs a skincare role first. Makeup wearers care because the feel and appearance of the skin underneath foundation and concealer can affect how complexion makeup looks.

Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel and Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray are made in Korea. Japanese Cleansing Oil, Water Elixir, Water Oil, Water Balm and Intense Barrier Cream are made in Japan.

Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray can be used on the face and body. It is not for sensitive skin.

Customers do not need to use every product in the Complete Skin Prep System every day. The system is intended to give the customer multiple skincare options so the routine can be adjusted according to how the skin feels and what it needs.

The Sonia Roselli Skin Prep Method organizes skin preparation around the roles Melt, Smooth, Drench, Nourish and Seal, with dedicated eye-area preparation as appropriate.

The Complete Skin Prep System is best suited to customers who are done experimenting with disconnected skincare and makeup products and want the complete Sonia Roselli skincare system in one purchase.

[ADD THE PRO KIT]

One routine cannot prep every face

One client feels tight through the cheeks but gets oily around the nose.

Another has loose surface flaking but otherwise comfortable skin.

Another needs very little under foundation.

Another needs more hydration before concealer.

Some skin can handle surface smoothing.

Some skin is telling you to leave it alone.

Professional skin prep cannot be one product or one routine for every client.

You need options.

The Pro Makeup Artist Skin Prep Kit puts the complete Sonia Roselli skincare collection in your working kit so you can assess the skin first and choose what it actually needs.

Use more where you need more.

Use less where you need less.

Skip what the skin does not need.

Stop when the surface is ready for makeup.

That is professional prep.

The Sonia Roselli Skin Prep Method

Professional skin prep does not start with a product.

It starts with the face in front of you.

Look. Feel. Ask.

Look at the skin before you touch it.

Notice visible dryness.

Loose flaking.

Oil.

Texture.

Redness.

Existing product load.

The areas where makeup usually struggles.

Then notice how the skin feels.

Rough or smooth.

Supple or tight.

Comfortable or reactive.

Dry in one area and oily in another.

Ask what you cannot see.

How does the skin normally behave?

When does it become oily?

Does foundation catch, pill, separate, disappear, or look heavy?

What has already been applied?

What finish does the client want?

How long does the makeup need to perform?

Where will they be wearing it?

Then choose your prep.

Does it need more comfort and suppleness?

Or would more richness create unnecessary slip?

Surface

Are there rough-looking or flaky areas that can safely be addressed?

Finish and performance

What does the finished makeup need to look like?

How long does it need to perform?

Then zone the face.

Because an oily nose and tight cheeks do not need identical prep.

A face is a map.

Not a bucket.

Apply. Observe. Adapt.

Apply a meaningful layer.

Then look again.

Did the skin become more comfortable?

Does one area still need more?

Is the product beginning to sit on top?

Is there too much slip?

Would another layer improve the surface or simply add more product underneath the makeup?

Professional prep is not about using the most skincare.

It is about knowing when you have used enough.

Stop when the surface is ready.

Then let makeup do less work.

What comes in the Pro Makeup Artist Skin Prep Kit

Japanese Cleansing Oil

Reset the surface when needed.

Melts makeup, sunscreen, and daily buildup without leaving skin feeling stripped.

Why makeup artists care:

What is already sitting on the skin can affect every layer you apply afterward.

When a reset is needed, Japanese Cleansing Oil gives you a controlled place to start before rebuilding the prep.

Made in Japan.

Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel

Smooth rough-looking surface texture when appropriate.

Helps smooth the look and feel of rough surface texture.

It can be used where needed instead of automatically exfoliating the entire face.

Why makeup artists care:

Loose flaking and rough-looking texture can make foundation catch more visibly.

A smoother-looking surface can make complexion products easier to spread with less manipulation.

Fragrance-free.

Made in Korea.

Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray

Fast surface prep for face and body.

A face-and-body exfoliation option for rough-looking areas when exfoliation is appropriate.

Why makeup artists care:

Your canvas does not always stop at the jawline.

Use it when appropriate to prepare rough-looking areas before body makeup, self-tanner, photography, wardrobe, or event work.

Not for sensitive skin.

Not fragrance-free.

Made in Korea.

Water Elixir

Lightweight hydration you can build as needed.

A lightweight conditioning layer for skin that feels tight, dry, or under-prepared.

Apply a layer.

Observe.

Add more only when the skin needs it.

Why makeup artists care:

Water Elixir lets you add lightweight hydration without immediately loading the skin with a rich layer that may be more than the makeup requires.

Made in Japan.

Water Oil

Add targeted nourishment where the skin needs it.

Use a small amount where the skin needs more richness, suppleness, or emollience.

Skip it where additional oil would create unnecessary slip.

Why makeup artists care:

Not every part of the face needs the same thing.

Water Oil gives you another option when lightweight hydration alone is not enough.

Press it into the areas that need it.

Leave the areas that do not.

Made in Japan.

Water Balm

Cushion the skin before complexion makeup.

A cushiony moisturizer that helps skin feel soft, hydrated, and comfortable.

Use enough to create a supple makeup-ready surface without overloading the skin.

Why makeup artists care:

Water Balm helps create a hydrated canvas so foundation can spread more easily and look less dry.

Made in Japan.

Intense Barrier Cream

Reach for richer comfort when lighter prep is not enough.

A richer moisturizing option for areas that feel especially dry, uncomfortable, or easily overwhelmed.

Use it where the skin needs more.

Not automatically over the entire face.

Why makeup artists care:

Some clients need more comfort than lightweight preparation can provide.

Intense Barrier Cream gives you a richer option without forcing the same prep onto every face.

Made in Japan.

Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel

Prep the eye area without overloading it.

Targeted hydration for the skin around the eyes.

Use a small amount.

Then assess before adding anything else.

Why makeup artists care:

A hydrated under-eye gives concealer a more comfortable surface to sit on.

Better prep can also help you resist the urge to compensate with more concealer and more powder.

Made in Japan.

Complimentary Skin Prep Brush

Apply skincare with intention.

The Skin Prep Brush gives you a controlled way to distribute skincare across the face.

Use it to apply and place product where you want it before working it into the skin as needed.

Included complimentary with the Pro Makeup Artist Skin Prep Kit.

Do not use every product on every client

That is not what makes this a professional kit.

Choice does.

A client with dry cheeks and an oily nose may need different preparation in each area.

A client with loose surface flaking does not automatically need full-face exfoliation.

A client who feels tight does not automatically need oil.

Skin that looks shiny is not automatically well hydrated.

And skin that is burning, stinging, raw-feeling, unusually reactive, or significantly peeling is not asking for another layer simply because makeup needs to go on top.

Look.

Feel.

Ask.

Then choose.

When the skin is telling you to simplify

Professional judgment includes knowing when to do less.

If the skin is visibly irritated or the client reports burning, stinging, rawness, or unusual reactivity, simplify your preparation.

Skip unnecessary exfoliation.

Reduce manipulation.

Use only familiar, well-tolerated products.

Stop any product that increases discomfort.

Makeup has a job.

So does restraint.

Built for the realities of professional makeup

Bridal mornings.

Editorial.

Television.

Red carpet.

Photography.

Body makeup.

Long production days.

Different climates.

Different skin tones.

Different textures.

Different levels of dryness and oil.

Different levels of sensitivity.

Different makeup finishes.

Different wear times.

Your foundation may stay the same.

The skin underneath it does not.

Your prep kit should be able to adapt.

Do not prep by age

Prep the skin in front of you.

A younger client can be very dry.

An older client can be oily.

One cheek can need more hydration than the other.

The nose can need a completely different amount of product than the rest of the face.

Age is context.

It is not a protocol.

Professional makeup artists read the skin first.

Created by a makeup artist who starts with skin

Sonia Roselli is a licensed esthetician, celebrity makeup artist, complexion expert, and product developer.

She has worked on real faces since 1990 across bridal, editorial, television, and red carpet.

She also has reactive, rosacea-prone skin herself.

Her approach to skin prep grew from a simple observation.

Beautifully prepared skin changes the makeup application.

When skin feels comfortable, supple, and properly prepared, foundation can spread more easily and require less unnecessary manipulation.

But a full facial before every makeup application is not realistic.

So the question became:

How do you bring the skin closer to that beautifully prepared state in the time a working makeup artist actually has?

Not with one universal prep product.

By learning to read the skin.

And having the right options in your kit when you need them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I use every product on every client?

No.

The point of the complete collection is to give you options.

Assess the skin first.

Use the minimum preparation needed to make the surface comfortable and ready for makeup.

Is this a primer kit?

No.

This is skincare designed with a makeup artist's eye.

Every formula has a skincare role.

The professional advantage is having skincare options you can choose according to the condition of the skin and the makeup job ahead.

How do I know which products to use?

Start with the skin.

Look.

Feel.

Ask.

Then consider four things:

Water.

Oil and emollience.

Surface condition.

Finish and performance.

Different zones of the face may need different products or different amounts.

Apply.

Observe.

Adapt.

Stop when the surface is ready.

Can I use this kit for bridal makeup?

Yes.

The Pro Makeup Artist Skin Prep Kit gives artists options for different clients, climates, skin conditions, finishes, and wear-time needs.

That flexibility is especially useful for professional jobs where makeup may need to perform for many hours.

Is this only for full-coverage makeup?

No.

Skin prep matters whether you are applying concealer, skin tint, bridal makeup, editorial makeup, body makeup, or a full complexion.

The goal is not heavier makeup.

The goal is to prepare the skin well enough that makeup has less work to do.

Can I use the entire kit on sensitive skin?

No.

Do not assume every product in the collection is appropriate for every sensitive or reactive-feeling client.

Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray is not for sensitive skin.

Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel is fragrance-free.

Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray and Japanese Cleansing Oil are not fragrance-free.

Always follow the individual product directions and assess the client before use.

Should I exfoliate flaky skin before makeup?

Not automatically.

A flake is a symptom.

Not an instruction.

Loose surface flaking on calm, tolerant skin may sometimes be addressed with gentle exfoliation.

Skin that is burning, stinging, raw, significantly irritated, sunburned, or actively peeling is not a routine exfoliation situation.

Can Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray be used on the body?

Yes.

Sexapeel Instant Exfoliation Spray can be used on the face and body.

It can be useful when preparing rough-looking areas before body makeup, self-tanner, photography, wardrobe, or event work.

It is not for sensitive skin.

Why are Water Elixir, Water Oil, Water Balm, and Intense Barrier Cream all included?

Because they give you different preparation options.

Water Elixir gives you lightweight hydration.

Water Oil gives you targeted emollience.

Water Balm gives you cushiony moisture before makeup.

Intense Barrier Cream gives you a richer option when the skin needs more comfort.

Professional prep means choosing according to the client.

Not forcing one moisturizer to do every job.

What is Zone Prep?

Zone Prep means preparing different parts of the same face according to what they need.

A client can have an oily nose, dehydrated cheeks, and a dry forehead at the same time.

Those areas do not need identical amounts or identical products.

What if skincare pills under foundation?

Start by simplifying.

Too much total product, too many layers, friction, insufficient set time, or interactions between sunscreen, skincare, and makeup can all contribute to pilling.

Reduce unnecessary layers.

Use smaller amounts.

Press rather than repeatedly rubbing.

Allow appropriate set time.

Change one variable at a time.

Your foundation kit has options.

Your skin prep kit should too.

Eight full-size skincare formulas.

One professional system.

A complimentary Skin Prep Brush.

And the freedom to choose what the face in front of you actually needs.

Great skincare. Better makeup.
