Question 1

Who should use Intellishade® Matte?

Accepted Answer

Intellishade® Matte can be used by all skin types especially combination to oily, and for anyone who desires a moisturizer with a more matte finish. It is an oil-free formula that reduces the appearance of pore size, conceals redness and provides daily UV protection and anti-aging benefits.

Question 2

How is Intellishade® Matte different from Intellishade® Original?

Accepted Answer

Intellishade® Original has a more moisturizing feel and leaves a healthy glow. The Matte formula provides a matte finish and contains ingredients which have been shown to reduce the appearance of pore size and absorb excess oil. While both can be used on all skin types, drier skin types may prefer Original, and combination or oily skin types may prefer Matte.

Question 3

How does Intellishade® Matte reduce the appearance of pore size?

Accepted Answer

A proprietary form of lecithin, which is derived from soybeans, works to reduce the appearance of pore size and also help to keep the skin’s moisture barrier balanced. As we age, cells that make up the walls of the pores tend to be abnormally enlarged. This proprietary form of lecithin helps stabilize the skin keratinization process so that cells that make up the pore wall appear smaller and more normal in size.

Question 4

How do the antioxidants in Intellishade® Matte help my skin?

Accepted Answer

Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) from Green Tea, THD Ascorbate (Vitamin C), Ubiquinone (Coenzyme Q10) and Vitamin E help to protect the skin from environmental damage by scavenging free radicals and helping to prevent oxidative damage.

Question 5

How do the botanical extracts help my skin?

Accepted Answer

The botanical extract blend includes White Birch Extract, Yeast Extract (Faex) and Plankton Extract to help strengthen the skin’s own natural defences.

Question 6

Which ingredients provide UV Protection?
