Customize your foundation

Combray May laughing in Pauw clothing

Without foundation, I feel naked, but with foundation, it often seems like you have a mask on. That can be just a bit too much on the schoolyard. If you also ‘struggle’ with this (an incredibly first world problem), then I have the perfect tip. Drop your foundation on the palm of your hand and mix it with a few drops of Combray oil. This gives you a natural glow, makes your foundation a bit less covering, and at the same time takes care of your skin. What I personally find an added benefit is that the oil from Combray seems to have a fixing effect. My foundation stays nicely ‘in place’ all day, whereas normally I would sometimes look in the mirror halfway through the day and see no coverage at all.

Now you might think: but oil is greasy, right? That is true, but Combray is absorbed very quickly by the skin, so you won't be walking around like a glowworm all day. That is completely absorbed within a few minutes.

And then there are the benefits that Combray has anyway. It has only two ingredients and contains the unique antioxidant Oxofulleram that protects the skin against sun damage, air pollution, inflammation, and the light from our smartphones and laptops.

And it is vegan and of course not tested on animals. I really stand behind this product. It is almost the only thing you need. With a little foundation, that is.
