Makeup That’s Skin Friendly and Even Skin Enhancing

Can Makeup Be Good For My Skin? Absolutely! With “All the carnal beauty of my wife, is but skin deep” and “His wounds are seldome above skin-deep”, Sir Thomas Overbury inscribed a powerful way of imagining superficiality—specifically that physical beauty is superficial—into the popular vernacular. So is beauty superficial? It certainly can be if used as a measure of judging one’s worth, as opposed to intelligence or kindness, for example. But to say that “beauty is only skin deep” gets our feathers more than a little ruffled at VMV. “Skin deep” to us is anything but superficial.

For as long as VMV has been in existence, we have always considered skin health to be cell-to-surface health. For us, beauty is cell-to-surface beauty. This is why in addition to our microscopically-effective treatments, our makeup is designed to work like skin care: to deliver profound benefits that enhance our cellularly-active therapies and preventive products. Our Skintelligent Beauty Makeup is fundamental to the hypoallergenicity as a lifestyle that is at the very core of VMV HYPOALLERGENICS^®.

Skintelligent Beauty Makeup helps you look amazing, sure: you, but your best you. The crucial thing—because of our unwavering focus on skin health, you look just as good (even better if we’re talking about naturally gorgeous skin) when our makeup comes off.

What is it about our Skintelligent Beauty that’s so skin healthy?

In a nutshell, how is our Skintelligent Beauty, well, skintelligent?

1) Free of all types of fragrance, irritating waxes, phthalates, parabens, preservatives and comedogens.*
2) A wide array of dye-free shades.
3) With monolaurin for anti-acne disinfection.
4) With virgin coconut oil for deep hydration and anti-aging benefits.
5) With antioxidants for cellular repair.
6) Non-comedognic. Non-irritating. Non-darkening.

1. Skintelligent Beauty Makeup is Paraben + Preservative-Free. This alone is huge news for those of you who are desperately allergic. Instead of allergenic parabens, we use a unique monoglyceride mix that in addition to preserving our products safely also gives you antibacterial, disinfectant protection. Skintelligent Beauty can actually keep your skin cleaner and freer of viruses, fungi, and bacteria. This, along with the absence of comedogens in Skintelligent Beauty, also helps prevent and clear up acne.
2. Skintelligent Beauty products are deeply, safely hydrating, most containing virgin coconut oil (VCO). This pore-friendly, plant-derived oil has fatty acids native to human skin. Instead of moisturizing skin by creating a barrier against water loss (how many moisturizers work), coconut oil helps replace lost lipids. VCO also helps strengthen the cellular wall and prevent cellular oxidation for wonderful anti-aging, skin strengthening benefits.
3. Other skin-enhancers include antioxidants green tea and rice phytic acid, plus additional sun protection.
4. Skintelligent Beauty has oodles of dye-free products, too.
5. And, studies have shown that layering makeup can actually improve your overall sun and light protection.
6. Last but certainly not least: like all VMV HYPOALLERGENICS^® products, Skintelligent Beauty Makeup is validated as hypoallergenic (through allergen omission, extensive usage tests, and patch tests of each and every ingredient, formulation, and even brushes and sponges!), 100% All-Types-Of-Fragrance-Free, and clinically-tested to prove claims, skin safety, and microbiological integrity.

We take no issue with the idea that physical beauty is not a good measure of character. But the idea that “skin deep” denotes superficiality? That’ll never fly at VMV. “Skin deep” to us will always mean skin health at the most profound, cellular level. So is VMV beauty skin deep? Absolutely. We wouldn’t have it any other way.
