Custom Blend Foundations from BeYourselfBeauty.com and Motives

Be Yourself Beauty and Motives Custom Blend foundation is designed to match skin tones perfectly and provides the desired coverage and finish by employing an advanced combination of bases, toners, enhancers, and modifiers that conceal any feature for a truly signature look. It sets a new standard in customized cosmetics with a simple process of choosing a base, adjusting with toner, then adding personal touches from an extensive selection of modifiers and enhancers that adjust the foundation texture, coverage and finish to meet any need or preference.

For a more natural coverage, a thinner can be added to dilute the base for a sheer finish.  A Hydrator can be added to a foundation to help restore moisture in dehydrated skin.

For those with t-zone shine or oily skin, a Mattifier imparts a flawless, shine-free, powder finish for camera-ready makeup as it absorbs any surface oil.  An Oil Control enhancer helps manage oil production for 8-10 hours by utilizing botanicals with astringent, purifying and cleansing qualities.

Need a lift? Skip the syringe! Fringe Benefit plumps fine lines, restores radiance and re-texturizes the skin, while Ultra Firming botanical complex uses soy protein for an instant tightening “flash” effect that lasts throughout the day.  It's almost like having liquid Botox.  Something everyone should include is the buildable Sunscreen Additive, which provides a lightweight, non-greasy SPF protection from harmful UV rays.

For those in need of extra coverage, Coverage Enhancers are used to increase the foundation pigment from medium coverage for slight imperfections such as rosacia, freckles and dark circles, to maximum coverage for camouflaging more severe problems like hyper-pigmentation, post-surgical bruising or discoloration, scars and tattoos.

Be Yourself Beauty and  Motives Custom Blend Foundation Bases and Toners can create the perfect shade for an individual’s skin by matching and neutralizing natural undertones. All seven Bases come in an oil-free formula, perfect if you are looking for an oil-free foundation.   They are paraben free and are 11% pigmented, which means more coverage in an age defying, lighter weight texture. Toners are intensive concentrates that come in 12 colors such as Yellow/Red which imparts peach undertones and Pearl which gives movement for that dewy glow.  These Toners provide the control to color-match any skin tone, adjust the foundation and create any shade imaginable in a talc-free formula that will never turn your foundation chalky. 

Custom blend foundations retail for $39.99 to $44.99.  (Foundation price is determined by modifers needed).  They are available for purchase through BeYourselfBeauty.com For additional information about our products, please visit www.BeYourselfBeauty.com or contact Nancy Hathaway-Hopowiec at 860-289-8191 or 888-457-8797
