Clean up your brows

A brow that is cleaned up and shaped perfectly can help frame your face. If your brows need a little filling use gentle strokes using a pencil, powder, or cream to help define your brows. Less is more these days, and simple, but defined brows are a must in minimal makeup looks.

Dab a little concealer or foundation

Most of the time we really don’t need to cover our entire face with foundation. Instead use a concealer or foundation to dab on the blemished spots. Simply pat with your finger to blend.

Did you know that Pure Fiji’s Dilo Oil is great for repairing and minimising acne scars? Just add a couple of drops to your face after cleansing and apply day crème, serum, or night crème on top. Or add a couple of drops into the crème and apply to your face.
