Skin Prep Starter Kit | For Dry + Dehydrated Skin
$ 279.00
Skin Prep Starter Kit for Dry + Dehydrated Skin
Smoother Skin. Plumper Hydration. Better-Looking Foundation & Concealer.
You moisturize. You apply foundation. And somehow, your makeup still looks dry, cakey, or older than your actual skin.
Sound familiar?
Your foundation might not be the problem. Your skin might need better preparation.
The Skin Prep Starter Kit for Dry + Dehydrated Skin by Sonia Roselli Beauty is a complete five-product Japanese skincare and makeup preparation routine designed to address dryness, dehydration, rough-looking texture, and fine lines that become more noticeable beneath foundation and concealer.
Created by professional makeup artist and licensed esthetician Sonia Roselli, this kit combines five essential skin prep steps:
Exfoliate. Hydrate. Prep Your Eyes. Nourish. Moisturize.
The result is softer, smoother, more supple-looking skin and a better-moisturized surface for makeup.
Because great foundation starts with the skin underneath.
What It Does for Your Skin
-
Smooths Dry, Flaky-Looking Texture: Helps remove accumulated surface dead skin so foundation has a smoother place to land.
-
Replenishes Hydration: Moisture-binding ingredients help skin feel hydrated, comfortable, and more supple.
-
Plumps the Appearance of Fine Lines: Helps soften the look of dehydration lines that foundation and concealer can exaggerate.
-
Nourishes Dry Skin: Lightweight botanical oils condition skin without requiring heavy, greasy layers.
-
Supports Your Moisture Barrier: Ceramides, amino acids, and emollients help maintain soft, moisturized skin.
-
Improves the Look of Foundation & Concealer: Helps makeup apply more evenly and look less cakey, patchy, or dry.
-
Restores a Healthy-Looking Glow: Hydration and conditioning help dull-looking skin appear smoother, fresher, and more radiant.
Why Dry + Dehydrated Skin Needs More Than Moisturizer
Dry skin and dehydrated skin aren't the same thing.
Dry skin generally produces less natural oil. Dehydrated skin lacks sufficient water.
You can experience both at the same time.
And when you add accumulated dead skin, dehydration lines, and dryness around your eyes, foundation and concealer can make those concerns look even more noticeable.
That's why applying another layer of moisturizer doesn't always solve the problem.
This kit addresses the different factors that affect how your skin looks and feels:
-
Dead skin buildup: Sexapeel Gommage helps remove accumulated surface dead skin.
-
Dehydration: Water Elixir supplies lightweight, water-binding hydration.
-
Dryness around the eyes: Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel provides targeted eye-area care.
-
Lack of suppleness: Water Oil nourishes and conditions with lightweight botanical oils.
-
Moisture and makeup preparation: Water Balm moisturizes and creates a smoother-feeling finish.
Five different jobs. One coordinated skincare routine.
What's Included in Your Kit?
1. Sexapeel Gommage Peeling Gel
Exfoliate | Smooth Rough Texture | Prep for Foundation
Foundation can cling to accumulated dead skin, making your complexion look flaky, patchy, or uneven.
Sexapeel Gommage is a facial exfoliating gel designed to gently lift and remove accumulated surface dead skin.
As the gel is massaged over the skin, it forms soft rolls that help lift away surface buildup. Rinse thoroughly to reveal a smoother-feeling surface.
Skin Benefits:
-
Removes accumulated surface dead skin.
-
Helps improve the appearance of rough, uneven texture.
-
Makes dry, flaky-looking areas appear smoother when buildup is the cause.
-
Helps create a better-prepared surface for foundation.
Why It Matters: Adding more moisturizer over dead skin buildup doesn't necessarily remove the buildup. Appropriate exfoliation addresses that separate problem.
Use Sexapeel Gommage occasionally, according to skin tolerance and the product directions.
2. Water Elixir Hydrating Serum & Skin Prep Essence
Hydrate | Plump | Soften Dehydration Lines
Dehydrated skin can look dull, feel tight, and make fine lines appear more noticeable.
Water Elixir is a lightweight Japanese hydrating essence formulated to replenish water-based hydration without leaving a heavy finish.
Its moisture-binding ingredients help skin feel softer and appear more supple.
Key Ingredients:
-
Sodium Hyaluronate: Helps bind moisture and support a plumper-looking complexion.
-
Glycerin: Attracts and holds water to support hydration.
-
Sodium PCA: A component associated with skin's natural moisturizing factors.
-
Betaine: Helps maintain comfortable hydration.
-
Amino Acids: Support skin softness and moisture retention.
Skin Benefits:
-
Replenishes lightweight hydration.
-
Helps soften the appearance of dehydration lines.
-
Supports a plumper, more supple-looking complexion.
-
Prepares skin for subsequent moisturizing products.
Why It Matters: Skin can lack water even when it feels oily or has already been moisturized. Water Elixir provides a dedicated hydration step.
3. Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel
Hydrate the Eye Area | Soften Fine Lines | Prep for Concealer
Your under-eye area deserves more than leftover face moisturizer.
The delicate skin around your eyes can show dryness and fine lines more visibly, especially when concealer settles into creases.
Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel is a targeted eye treatment designed to provide lightweight hydration and improve the appearance of fine lines.
Skin Benefits:
-
Hydrates the delicate eye area.
-
Helps soften the appearance of fine lines.
-
Supports smoother-looking under-eye skin.
-
Prepares the area for more even-looking concealer application.
Why It Matters: Foundation and concealer have different application challenges. A dedicated eye-preparation step helps address the specific needs of the under-eye area.
4. Water Oil Dual-Phase Skin Prep Face Serum-Oil
Nourish | Improve Suppleness | Add Radiance
Think facial oils are too greasy to wear under makeup?
Water Oil is a featherlight Japanese dual-phase serum-oil formulated to condition skin without the heavy, slippery feel associated with many traditional face oils.
It combines squalane, botanical oils, and a peptide to help skin look softer, more supple, and luminous.
Key Ingredients:
-
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5: Supports the appearance of firmer, smoother-looking skin.
-
Squalane: Provides lightweight emollient conditioning and helps maintain softness.
-
Japanese Camellia Seed Oil: Nourishes and conditions dry-feeling skin.
-
Sea Buckthorn Oil: Contains fatty acids and carotenoids that support a radiant appearance.
-
Argan, Jojoba, and Rice Bran Oils: Provide additional skin-conditioning benefits.
Skin Benefits:
-
Nourishes and softens dry-feeling skin.
-
Supports a firmer, smoother-looking appearance.
-
Helps improve skin suppleness.
-
Adds a healthy-looking, luminous finish.
-
Layers beneath Water Balm for makeup preparation.
Why It Matters: Hydration alone may not provide enough emollient conditioning for skin that also feels dry. Water Oil adds nourishment without requiring a heavy traditional facial oil.
Shake before every use to combine the two phases.
5. Water Balm Gel-Cream Moisturizer & Makeup Prep
Moisturize | Smooth | Prepare for Foundation
Meet the moisturizer that understands makeup.
Water Balm is a lightweight Japanese gel-cream moisturizer formulated to hydrate skin while creating a smooth-feeling surface beneath foundation.
Its combination of ceramides, humectants, amino acids, hydrolyzed silk, and skin-smoothing ingredients helps skin feel soft and moisturized without a heavy cream finish.
Key Ingredients:
-
Ceramide 3: Helps support skin's moisture barrier.
-
Glycerin: Provides moisture-binding hydration.
-
Sodium PCA: Helps maintain hydrated, supple-feeling skin.
-
Amino Acid Complex: Supports moisture retention and skin softness.
-
Hydrolyzed Silk: Contributes to a smooth, conditioned skin feel.
-
Fermented Rice-Derived Ingredients: Support skin conditioning and a healthy-looking complexion.
Skin Benefits:
-
Moisturizes and supports skin comfort.
-
Helps soften the appearance of dehydration lines.
-
Smooths the appearance of dry, uneven-looking texture.
-
Creates a soft, moisturized finish beneath foundation.
-
Helps makeup apply more evenly.
Why It Matters: Your moisturizer should do more than make your skin feel hydrated. It should also help create a smoother surface for foundation.
The Makeup Benefits: Why Skin Prep Changes Everything
Foundation Clinging to Dry Patches
When skin has accumulated dead skin or rough, dry-looking areas, foundation can catch on the surface.
Sexapeel Gommage helps address dead skin buildup, while Water Elixir, Water Oil, and Water Balm provide hydration and conditioning.
The goal: A softer, smoother-looking surface that allows foundation to apply more evenly.
Foundation Settling Into Fine Lines
Dehydration can exaggerate the appearance of fine lines, making foundation look heavier.
Water Elixir and Water Balm help moisturize and plump the appearance of skin, while Water Oil adds suppleness.
The goal: Softer-looking dehydration lines and a more natural foundation finish.
Concealer Looking Dry or Creased
The under-eye area often needs targeted attention.
Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel provides lightweight eye-area care to help prepare skin beneath concealer.
The goal: A smoother-looking under-eye surface and less emphasis on dryness-related lines.
Makeup Looking Cakey by Midday
When foundation sits on rough or dehydrated skin, adding more makeup may make the finish appear heavier.
This kit focuses on improving the skin surface before applying foundation.
The goal: Better-prepared skin so foundation looks more like skin and less like layers of makeup.
Dull, Tired-Looking Skin
Dehydration and dryness can make the complexion appear flat.
Water Elixir supports hydration, while Water Oil provides emollient conditioning and a luminous-looking finish.
The goal: Fresh, supple, radiant-looking skin, with or without makeup.
Who Is This Kit For?

-
Struggle with dry-looking under-eye concealer.
-

How to Use Your Skin Prep Starter Kit
Step 1: Cleanse
Begin with clean skin.
Use Japanese Cleansing Oil to remove makeup, sunscreen, and daily buildup when needed.
Japanese Cleansing Oil is sold separately.
Step 2: Exfoliate With Sexapeel Gommage
On exfoliation days, apply Sexapeel Gommage according to its directions, gently massage to lift accumulated dead skin, and rinse thoroughly.
Do not exfoliate actively irritated, broken, or compromised skin.
Exfoliation is occasional rather than mandatory every day.
Step 3: Hydrate With Water Elixir
Apply approximately two pumps to clean skin.
Gently press into your face to replenish lightweight hydration.
Step 4: Prep Your Eyes With Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel
Apply a small amount around the appropriate eye area according to product directions.
Use gentle application without pulling or rubbing the delicate skin.
Step 5: Nourish With Water Oil
Shake well before every use.
Warm approximately one pump between your palms and press into your face and neck.
Step 6: Moisturize With Water Balm
Apply approximately a large pea-sized amount over Water Oil.
Press gently into the skin with your hands or the Sonia Roselli Beauty Skin Prep Brush.
Allow the moisturizer to settle before the next step.
Skin Prep Brush sold separately.
Step 7: Protect & Apply Makeup
During the day, apply broad-spectrum sunscreen before foundation and concealer.
Allow sunscreen to settle according to its product directions.
Your Daily Routine
Morning: Water Elixir → Eye Gel → Water Oil → Water Balm → SPF → Foundation & Concealer.
Evening: Cleanse → Water Elixir → Eye Gel → Water Oil → Water Balm.
Exfoliation Days: Add Sexapeel Gommage after cleansing and before your leave-on skincare.
For especially dry skin that needs richer overnight moisturizing, Intense Barrier Cream can be added separately.
What Makes This Kit Different From the Original Skin Prep Starter Kit?
The original Skin Prep Starter Kit includes three products:
-
Sexapeel Gommage
-
Water Elixir
-
Water Balm
It introduces the essential exfoliation, hydration, and moisturizing steps.
The Skin Prep Starter Kit for Dry + Dehydrated Skin includes all three original products plus:
Water Oil: Adds lightweight emollient nourishment, suppleness, and radiance.
Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel: Adds targeted eye-area care and concealer preparation.
This makes the five-product kit a more comprehensive option for customers who want additional nourishment and targeted attention to fine lines around the eyes.
Is This Kit Suitable for Sensitive Skin?
Individual skin tolerance matters.
Water Elixir, Water Oil, and Water Balm provide hydrating or conditioning benefits, but Sexapeel Gommage is an exfoliating product and may not suit compromised or actively irritated skin.
If your skin is reactive, introduce new products individually, patch-test, and adjust exfoliation frequency.
Avoid exfoliating during an active irritation episode or when skin is peeling from treatments such as retinoids.
The kit is cosmetic skincare and is not intended to treat rosacea, eczema, or other medical skin conditions.
Do You Need All Five Products Every Day?
No.
The kit includes both everyday skincare and an occasional exfoliating treatment.
Water Elixir, Eye Gel, Water Oil, and Water Balm can form your daily routine.
Sexapeel Gommage is used when needed and according to tolerance.
You can also adjust the amounts of your leave-on products based on your skin's comfort and the makeup finish you prefer.
What's Not Included?
This kit does not include:
-
Japanese Cleansing Oil
-
Intense Barrier Cream
-
Skin Prep Brush
-
Broad-spectrum sunscreen
-
Foundation or concealer
These products are sold separately.
Once You've Built Your Routine, Just Replenish
The Skin Prep Starter Kit for Dry + Dehydrated Skin is designed to introduce a more complete skincare and makeup-preparation routine.
When individual products begin running low, you can purchase them separately or choose the appropriate Sonia Roselli Beauty skincare replenishment kit.
Your skin changes. Your routine can change with it.

FAQs
Because not all skincare plays well with makeup.
Some moisturizers leave foundation pilling, sliding, separating, or sitting on top of your skin.
Created by a makeup artist and licensed esthetician with over 35 years of experience, this Japanese skincare system is designed to care for your skin AND prepare it for beautiful makeup.
Better skin. Even better makeup.
Before buying another foundation, look at what's underneath it.
Dry patches, dehydration, and dead skin buildup can make even expensive foundation look cakey.
This kit helps address all three, giving foundation a smoother, better-hydrated canvas.
Your foundation might not be the problem after all.
Each product has a job. No guesswork required.
- Sexapeel Gommage: Removes flaky dead skin.
- Water Elixir: Replenishes hydration.
- Peptide Eye Gel: Smooths and hydrates under concealer.
- Water Oil: Nourishes and plumps.
- Water Balm: Moisturizes and smooths before makeup.
Five products working together instead of five random products fighting each other.
Your foundation shouldn't make your fine lines look worse.
Dehydration can exaggerate fine lines and make makeup settle into them.
Our hydrating, peptide-containing formulas help skin appear plumper and smoother, so foundation looks more natural.
Less emphasis on lines. More beautiful-looking skin.
Your under-eyes need skin prep, too.
Our Wrinkle Smoothing Peptide Eye Gel is specifically formulated for the delicate eye area.
It hydrates, helps soften the appearance of fine lines, and creates a smoother surface for concealer.
Because beautiful foundation deserves beautiful concealer.
This isn't another primer. It's skincare designed with makeup in mind.
Instead of adding another layer to temporarily disguise texture, you're exfoliating surface buildup, replenishing hydration, and moisturizing your skin.
That can help reduce the dryness and uneven texture that contribute to cakiness and pilling.
Absolutely not. Beautiful makeup has no age requirement.
This kit is especially helpful for dry, dehydrated skin, but anyone experiencing flaky patches, dullness, or foundation emphasizing texture may benefit.
If your skin is oily, adjust the amount of Water Oil and Water Balm to suit your needs.
No. We've already done the thinking for you.
Exfoliate with Sexapeel Gommage 1–3 times weekly, then use Water Elixir, Eye Gel, Water Oil, and Water Balm in that order.
Your daily skincare and makeup prep are part of the same routine.
Absolutely. This is real skincare, not just makeup prep.
Use your hydration and moisturizing products morning and evening, whether you're wearing foundation or going bare-faced.
Sexapeel Gommage is an occasional exfoliating step, not a daily requirement.
Beautiful bare skin is always in style.
You don't need harsh scrubs to get smoother-looking skin.
Sexapeel Gommage uses mandelic acid and PHAs to gently exfoliate surface buildup without gritty scrub particles.
Start once weekly if your skin is sensitive, and avoid using it on the same day as tretinoin, retinol, or other strong exfoliants.
The remaining products provide hydration and nourishment to help dry skin feel comfortable.
Want an even easier application? Add our Skin Prep Brush to distribute your skincare smoothly without excessive rubbing.
