Naturally sourced ingredients. Vegan. Fragrance-free.

  • Glutathione

    Glutathione is a star ingredient in the Illumine BB Cream. It helps protect the skin by neutralising harmful free radicals and work in harmony with titanium dioxide and zinc oxide to shield the skin from harmful UV rays, reduce the risk of sun-induced damage and balance melanin production. With ongoing application, it improves uneven skin tones and  leaves the skin looking luminous and protected.

  • B-Glucan

    Β-Glucan in the BB Cream delivers deep hydration while soothing redness and irritation, making it a perfect choice for strengthening the skin’s natural barrier. This ingredient is particularly effective in preventing sensitivity or irritation after sun exposure or facial treatments. Beyond offering a flawless, natural finish, the BB Cream nurtures the skin from within, ensuring it remains calm and resilient.

  • Titanium dioxide 

    Titanium dioxide is a cornerstone ingredient in the BB cream, renowned for its outstanding ability to reflect and scatter both UVA and UVB rays. This powerful protector provides defense against sunburn and long-term sun damage, acting as a shield even during prolonged sun exposure. When paired with dimethicone, it creates a smooth, silky base that blurs imperfections, ensuring a flawless finish.

  • How to Use

    When to Use

    As a final step in your morning skincare regime, dispense a pea-sized amount of the Illumine BB Cream into your fingertips and apply in a circular motion onto your face and neck using light, upward movements. This double-action formula serves as a daily tinted moisturiser and sunblock. For enhanced coverage of blemishes, layer with your preferred foundation or concealer.

    Usage Instructions

    1. Ensure your skin is cleansed and any applied serum has fully absorbed before using the BB cream. Avoid layering with mineral oil-based moisturisers as these can form a barrier that hinders the BB cream from delivering its optimal sunblock protection.
    2. When your skin is exposed to extreme direct sun, you should apply the Illumine moisturiser with SPF 50 for full protection. 
    3. No need to apply any other moisturisers when using the Illumine BB cream.

    Precautions

    Patch Test: If you have reactive skin or intolerant to a known ingredient, before using the BB Illumine Serum for the first time, perform a patch test on a small section of your face to ensure there's no allergic reaction or sensitivity.

    For Optimal Benefits

    Incorporate into your morning routine throughout the year. During intense sun exposure, We recommend you apply the Illumine Moisturiser (SPF 50) first.
