Snatch Your Look with the Perfect PÜR Contour Shade

by Eunice Oglice on Jun 01 2022
If you don’t know where to start with contour, you’re not alone! Scrolling through the endless methods and products on Instagram or TikTok can get overwhelming fast. PÜR is here to help with your one-stop guide to finding your contour shade—no filters required! We’ll help you get learn (or brush up on) the basics with a few tried-and-true pointers, then run through a few options to help you find your new contour go-to. Find Your Shade Contouring is actually a no-brainer when you think about it: our faces aren’t flat. They have angles, curves, and shadows, so instead of a foundation that’s all one color we need to place a slightly darker shade on those areas that naturally have a bit of shadow. Apply a shade of 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 20 Powder Foundation, Love Your Selfie Long Wear Foundation and Concealer, or 4-in-1 Foundation Stick Cream-to-Velvet Matte Foundation that’s one to two tones darker than your main foundation anywhere you want to enhance the dimensions of your face: your cheekbones, jawline, forehead, and nose are likely where those shadows fall naturally. Learn Your Undertones Contour isn’t just about darker shades, though. Pay attention to your skin’s natural undertones—are they warm, cool, or neutral? If your skin burns easily in the sun, you probably have cool undertones (blues and reds). If your skin tans well, it likely has warmer tones like golds or yellows. Burn and then tan? Then neutral tones are probably for you! When you choose a foundation shade you want it to have the same undertones as your skin, so make sure your contour shade has those tones too! PUR’s foundations and concealers come in a wide range of shades that take undertones and overtones into account. Plus, you can use the “Find Your Shade” tool to try on shades anytime—even when you’re watching Netflix in your PJ’s. Pick a Brush Makeup tools are everything when it comes to contour! PÜR’s Chisel Brush is designed to work with 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 20 Powder Foundation, but if you’re working with a cream or liquid foundation, the BHOLDER Dual-Action Complexion Applicator may help you create a more defined look with its densely-packed synthetic bristles. In general, bigger, fluffier makeup brushes are going to give you a softer, less defined makeup look. Uncertain when you should go in with these brushes? After your favorite foundation and 4-in-1 Sculpting Concealer, but before your blush is the best time to apply your contour. Cream vs. Powder This one comes down to your personal preference—do cream products or powders make you feel more put together when you’re heading out in your makeup? You could also consider your skin type. Oilier skin types may prefer powder-based products like 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Makeup that mattify the look of skin. PÜR beauties with dryer skin might opt for our 4-in-1 Foundation Stick. This cream-to-velvet formula can be used as a highlighter or contour cream because of the unique octagonal stick component. It’s also perfect for on-the-go beauty!   Enjoy Your Contour! Contouring shouldn’t be a stressor! The Instagram hype is real, but at the end of the day, contouring is just another part of your makeup routine to experiment with and help enhance your natural beauty. If you create your contoured look with PÜR products, you can be sure they’re infused with skin-loving skin care ingredients like PÜR’s Proprietary Ceretin Complex, Shea Butter, Aloe Vera, and Green Tea Extract to help soothe and condition your skin. Are you looking fierce and loving the look of your skin? Then that’s a PÜR-fect contour!

Trend Watch: Glazed Donut Skin is Summer’s Biggest Beauty Trend

by Eunice Oglice on May 17 2022
Glisten. Glowing. Glossy. Glazed? That’s right: the newest term for that youthful-looking, shimmering face is inspired by the sugary doughnut you get to treat yourself after a tough week. Word on the street is this moniker took off when none other than Hailey Beiber used it as a caption on Instagram: “glazed 🍩🍩 skin all 2022. Tell a friend.” Right you are, Mrs. Beiber! We’re passing this beauty trend along to all our PÜR skin care afficionados and telling you how to get that glazed donut look this summer and beyond! To get your glaze going, you’re going to want to start with an intensely hydrating daily moisturizer. Creating an extra-smooth base for your makeup to glide onto is essential to achieve this look, so that’s our cue to introduce you to PÜR’s 4-in-1 Cloud Cream Gel-to-Water Hydrating Essence Moisturizer. This pillowy moisturizer deeply hydrates with an innovative water breaking technology to help give your skin that dewy glow. Perfect for your morning or nighttime routine, 4-in-1 Cloud Cream hydrates, soothes, smooths and primes the skin for makeup while the antioxidant-rich formula helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Quenching your skin with Cloud Cream will help get you ready to create that glowy glaze look. Now that your skin is prepped and satiny soft-looking, it’s time to build up the glaze by mixing a few Go with the Glow Niacinamide Drops into your 4-in-1 Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 20 or Love Your Selfie Foundation. Go with the Glow Drops are powered by age-defying Niacinamide, Vitamin C, and a superfood blend of Kale, Spinach, Aloe, and Lavender to help give your skin that radiant-looking glow. 4-in-1 Tinted Moisturizer and Love Your Selfie are both formulated with PUR’s exclusive Proprietary Ceretin Complex and other skin-loving ingredients and adding Glow Drops gives these foundation favorites an extra youthful-looking glaze! What’s the difference between “shine” and “glaze,” you ask? Mainly a difference in placement. To get a glazed doughnut glisten that is fresh-looking but not oily, it’s important to hit the high points of your face and help minimize the shine in your T-zone. Carving out the area under your eyes with 4-in-1 Sculpting Concealer will help create depth and definition for your glowy glaze. Use your PUR Chisel Brush to layer some Skin Perfecting Powder Blushing Act on the apples of your cheeks. Skin Perfecting Powders are infused with skin-loving antioxidant-rich ingredients to help condition skin, and they leave your look with a matte finish that looks soft instead of flat. For more glaze, pop some extra Glow Drops on those high points: your cheekbones, the tip of your nose, and your brow bones are the best places for that glassy look! Finally, finish off your glaze with Skin Perfecting Powder Afterglow Illuminating Powder and set it with Lit Mist Illuminating Setting Spray. Glazed doughnut skin is all about a youthful look, and Afterglow Illuminating Powder diffuses the look of fine lines and wrinkles with a sheer wash of illuminating color. Afterglow is formulated with uber-hydrating Shea Butter to help lock in moisture and Green Tea to sooth skin and reduce the appearance of redness. Top it all off by delivering instant luminosity with a spritz of Lit Mist! This silky fine mist comes in an ultra-luxe clouded pink bottle and uses Glycerin, Coconut Acid, and Safflower Seed Oil to lock in moisture. Voila! You and your new glowy glaze are ready to hit the town… or the nearest bakery!

Earth Month Spotlight: Aloe Vera

by Eunice Oglice on May 04 2022
At PÜR, we care about the Earth all year round—you can read more about how to reduce, reuse, and recycle some of your PÜR favorites here. There are so many skin-loving ingredients found on this incredible planet, including many of the ingredients that we use in our multitasking PÜR makeup and skin care products. This week, we’re highlighting a plant-based ingredient that’s working as hard as you do: Aloe Vera. Aloe is featured in PÜR favorites from our bestselling 4-in-1 Tinted Moisturizer to our uber-hydrating and restorative Submerge Overnight Detox Anti-Pollution Moisturizer. Read on to learn what’s so incredible about this desert-dwelling plant, and to hear about more of the Aloe-infused products at PUR this Earth Month and every month! Why We Love Aloe Successful Succulent The Aloe Vera plant is a hardy succulent native to desert environments. Because it stores water inside its mature leaves, Aloe can live on very little water for a long time. It also makes a great houseplant—you don’t have to have a green thumb or a lot of extra time to keep an aloe plant of your own alive! Sustainable Soother We love Aloe and the Earth does too! Aloe doesn’t take as much space or water resources to farm, which some say makes it a more sustainable choice than other crops. So Many Uses! Aloe gel has been used across cultures for centuries. At PUR, we know that Aloe can help soothe skin and decrease redness. PÜR Products with Aloe At PUR, we’ve added skin-loving aloe into skin care masks, serum products, and moisturizers so that you can incorporate this hero ingredient into every aspect of your skincare routine. Check out some of our Aloe-infused options below! 4-in-1 Cloud Cream Gel-to-Water Hydrating Essence Moisturizer Cloud Cream is an intense hydrator, and part of that moisture comes from Aloe! This multitasking moisturizer uses Aloe to soothe skin and help reduce the appearance of redness. Other botanicals like Green Algae Extract and Apple, Cranberry, and Raspberry Fruit Extract help protect the skin from environmental stressors and help promote a healthier-looking complexion. The innovative water-breaking technology in Cloud Cream gives it a light, pillowy texture and helps to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 4-in-1 Correcting Primer Energize and Rescue If Aloe can survive in the parching desert, it can also help your makeup look survive a hectic workday. This Aloe-infused primer helps set the stage for a flawless makeup look by helping reduce the look of redness and pores as it soothes your skin. This multitasking makeup primer is also infused with caffeine to help perk up the skin and Squalene and coconut water to help improve skin’s hydration and texture. Are dark spots or hydration more of a concern for your skin? Look for Aloe’s skincare benefits in PUR’s 4-in-1 Correcting Primer Dark Spot Corrector and 4-in-1 Correcting Primer Hydrate and Balance. Tone Up Total Fitness Eye Serum Want to give your undereye skin a little workout? This earthy-looking green eye serum uses Aloe in combination with Turmeric, Squalane, and Neem Flower Extract to visibly help firm, lift, plump, and smooth the appearance of the under eye area. Tone Up is lightweight and cooling to help reduce puffiness under your eyes, and 50% of participants in our trial saw a reduction in wrinkle depth after using it for 28 days.* *Based on an in-house perception study

April Showers Bring… Hydration!

by Karen White on Apr 05 2022
April is upon us again, complete with the possibility of dreary, stormy afternoons spent stuck indoors dreaming about brighter spring and summer days ahead. At PÜR, we embrace those rainy April days because we know that hydration is key for a healthier-looking microbiome and flawless makeup application. Trust us: keep up that skincare routine for hydration while you’re stuck inside, and it will help your skin look refreshed and rejuvenated when the sun comes out again. What’s our go-to skincare product for locking in moisture? Our 4-in-1 Cloud Cream Gel-to-Water Hydrating Essence Moisturizer provides just as much hydration for your skin as those April showers provide for May flowers! Read on to find out more about this everyday moisturizer and the skin-loving, PÜR ingredients that help give your skin that dewy, April-inspired look!   What is 4-in-1 Cloud Cream Gel-to-Water Hydrating Essence Moisturizer? This antioxidant-rich, gel-to-water formula utilizes an innovative water-breaking technology to provide deep hydration and help reduce the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles. 4-in-1 Cloud Cream is also a PÜR multitasking beauty must-have—in addition to hydrating the skin, this light essence moisturizer also soothes, smooths and primes the skin for every day makeup application. 4-in-1 Cloud Cream Gel-to-Water Hydrating Essence Moisturizer stands out because of its special gel-to-water transformation: the gel transforms into watery essence on contact with the skin, helping to leave it hydrated, more radiant, and healthier-looking. What Makes 4-in-1 Cloud Cream our Go-To for Hydration?   4-in-1 Cloud Cream Gel-to-Water Hydrating Essence Moisturizer is a hydration hero because of PÜR’s proprietary Ceretin Complex and natural botanicals that help quench your skin’s thirst. Read on for more about the clean, barrier-protecting key ingredients that give 4-in-1 Cloud Cream its multitasking everyday beauty solution! PÜR’s proprietary Ceretin Complex | At PÜR, we we make products to spark imagination, and Cloud Cream does that with Ceretin Complex! Ceretin Complex is powered by an Encapsulated Retinol, Lactic Acid, and Shea Butter, and a Ceramide that gently help diminish the look of fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration. Our Ceretin Complex is exclusive to PUR Foundations, Primers, Concealers, and Face Powders—you can’t find this ingredient anywhere else! Green Algae Extract | For this ingredient, we’re going from up in the clouds to under the sea! Seaweeds like green algae are densely packed with vitamins, minerals, and lipids absorbed from seawater, which can translate into major benefits for the look of skin. The Green Algae Extract in 4-in-1 Cloud Cream helps protect your skin from environmental stressors, like high energy visible blue light. Aloe | If you’ve ever cared for succulents like the Aloe Vera plant, you know that just a little water goes a long way for this hydration all-star. Aloe’s ability to retain water and its gel-like consistency helps 4-in-1 Cloud Cream (and a whole bunch of other soothing, PÜR products) to soothe skin and help reduce the appearance of redness. Green Tea | Helps fight premature signs of aging. Apple, Cranberry and Raspberry Fruit Extract | Help skin maintain a healthier-looking appearance.

Earth Month: Beauty PÜR and Simple… and Sustainable

by Eunice Oglice on Apr 05 2022
Now that it’s Spring, the days are getting longer, the sun is bright and warm, the trees and flowers are coloring our days with green and yellow and pink again. If you’re using this time to get out in nature, you might be wondering about how to help preserve all this beauty for future generations. Luckily, at PÜR, the Earth is on our minds and in our products all year round. PÜR is an industry trailblazer in clean beauty, creating products with good-for-your skin ingredients that prioritize multitasking for a more sustainable future. We all need to work together to help keep our planet healthy, and every little bit helps. Here are a few tips for Earth-friendly beauty, plus some multitasking options from PÜR to help you reduce your impact on the environment. Conscious Beauty Tips from PÜR Help Reduce Waste by Looking for Multitasking Products Products with more than one function have been central to PÜR’s mission for over twenty years. If you’re buying a foundation, a concealer, a powder, and an SPF, that’s four times the beauty packaging headed towards a landfill. Products like PÜR’s best-selling 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Powder helps reduce the waste created by your beauty routine. You won’t have to sacrifice your look, either: PÜR fan favorite 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Powder actually helps improve the appearance of skin, but we’ll tell you more about that later. Re-use What You Can Giving old beauty products or packaging a new life can make you feel like an Earth goddess! Once you’re finished with that tube of our Fully Charged Mascara, use soap and warm water to wash off remaining product and repurpose the brush to use on your brows. Beauty packaging is made to be pretty on the outside, so a lot of it can be repurposed as aesthetically pleasing storage and organization in your home. Clean out your empty 4-in-1 Cloud Cream container to create gorgeous storage for earrings, pins, or extra buttons. Feeling inspired? You can read more about how to repurpose beauty packaging over at Poosh. Recycle Beauty Packaging We’ll be honest: beauty product packaging is not always the easiest to recycle. But a little extra effort can go a long way towards sustainable beauty. Do a little research into your local recycling regulations, because “wishcycling” isn’t doing much for Mother Earth. Check the triangular recycling symbol on your beauty packaging and see if it has the number 1 or 2 printed on it. If it does, it’s probably accepted by your curbside recycling service. If you don’t see the right symbol, don’t despair just yet! Multitasking Products to Make the Most of Earth Month Want to get a little greener and simplify your morning routine at the same time? Try some of these multitasking favorites from PÜR: 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Powder This 4-in-1 with foundation, concealer, powder, and SPF isn’t just a major timesaver. 95% of women in a clinical study experience smoother, softer skin texture in just four weeks! This 4-in-1 is made with PÜR’s signature Waltheria Extract, which helps brighten the appearance of darks spots and uneven skin tones, while Shea Butter with Vitamin E work to help condition and soothe skin for a healthier-looking complexion. Our #1 Best-Selling Product, 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Makeup will also help you generate a bit less packaging waste this Earth Month.   4-in-1 Correcting Primer Anti-Blemish & Mattifying Primer If you’re getting frustrated by blemished skin, it’s easy to go on a product-buying binge. Instead of raiding the entire skincare aisle, stuffing your makeup drawer, and increasing waste, grab PÜR’s 4-in-1 Correcting Primer. This makeup and skin care primer instantly blurs the look of imperfections while helping address blemish-prone skin with Salicylic Acid and Beta Hydroxy Acids that gently exfoliate for a clearer-looking complexion. This must-have primer is also made with Lingonberry Extract to help protect your skin from pollution and high energy blue light. 4-in-1 Skin-Perfecting Powders Face Palette Remember that unidentifiable swirl of powder in your cosmetics drawer? It might be because you’re buying four times more powder than you need. PÜR 4-in-1 Skin-Perfecting Powder doesn’t just sit there: it’s made with a skincare infused formula that helps minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as it melts into skin for a smooth, natural-looking finish. A complexion-boosting Energy Complex is formulated with an encapsulated blend of Retinol, Lactic Acid, Shea Butter, and a Ceramide to gently improve the look of skin tone and texture while helping to diminish the look of fine lines and wrinkles. This gentle time-released formula can be used both day and night so your skin can look fresh while you reduce, reuse, and recycle.

Stress Relief for Your Skin with PÜR

by Eunice Oglice on Apr 05 2022
We don’t want to stress you out, but did you know that stress can affect the look of your skin? When you’re in a tizzy night and day, your body responds by upping its production of the stress hormone cortisol and throwing your skin’s microbiome out of whack. The key to treating “stress skin”? Get to the root of the problem and help reduce those stressors. At PÜR, stress-relief lives on Nabela Noor’s Instagram. Noor, the CEO, author of Beautifully Me, and soon-to-be mama, curates a peaceful, minimalist paradise of a space with airy accents and lots of light. Just looking at it definitely qualifies as self-care, and so do our PÜR xo Nabela skin care and makeup products. Made with self-love and self-care in mind, these Turmeric Extract-infused skincare and makeup favorites may help your skin look brighter AND help you take a few moments out of the day for you. Stress can seem unavoidable, but here are a few tried-and-true self-care indulgences, including some PÜR xo Nabela products we love to unwind with. Meditation & Mindfulness. Find a “sit spot” out in nature or in a quiet place in your home and do nothing (on purpose) for twenty minutes each day. Even taking a few deep breaths can be enough to trigger the body’s relaxation response. Our favorite way to get those twenty mindful minutes? Reset with PÜR xo Nabela Reset Detoxifying Mask. This gently exfoliating skin care mask helps remove pore-clogging impurities and brighten the appearance of dull skin. PÜR xo Nabela Reset Detoxifying Mask is made with Kaolin Clay to help gently remove pore-clogging impurities and Pomegranate Enzyme that acts as a natural Alpha Hydroxy Acid to help gently exfoliate dull, dead skin. Gently massage into skin for one minute and then let the Reset begin! Limit Screen Time. Whether it’s your inbox or the nightly news, the blue light from screens isn’t always beneficial for your skin or your stress level. Turning off the devices—especially before bed—and taking some time for you is always a great idea. What does “self-care” look like? At PÜR, look no further than PÜR xo Nabela Refresh Brightening Cleanser with Turmeric. Pamper your skin with this gel cleanser infused that combines Turmeric Extract, Papaya Extract, and Pomegranate Enzyme to help hydrate and exfoliate skin. “Stress skin” can have that dull, “blah” look—the Turmeric Extract in Refresh helps brighten the appearance of skin, and the Pomegranate Enzyme acts as a natural AHA to help gently exfoliate. Healthier looking skin = one less thing to stress about! Get Outside! Going for a jog or a stroll in a green space gets antioxidants flowing, helping your microbiome protect your skin from environmental stressors that can damage the skin. Studies say that even ten minutes in a green space—whether it’s a National Park or the courtyard outside your office—can be enough to help alleviate stress. Before you head to your local botanical garden, use some botanicals to pamper your lips with PÜR xo Nabela Celebrate You Creamy Lip Chubby! Infused with Sunflower Seed Oil and Rosemary Leaf Extract, this conditioning jumbo lip pencil helps prevent signs of aging skin and protect skin from environmental stressors. A chic shade of Shundori pink, the PÜR xo Nabela Celebrate You Creamy Lip Chubby also never needs sharpening—one less task on your to-do list! Say “No” More Often. Toxic positivity is so prevalent, it can feel like we should always be screaming “Yes!” to every opportunity or challenge. But setting boundaries and not biting off more than you can chew can help you limit stressors in your life. Want to look like a boss babe while politely declined those extra tasks? The PÜR xo Nabela Embrace Your Face Eye & Cheek Palette features velvety soft eyeshade, blush, and highlighter powders with skin-conditioning skin care ingredients like Turmeric Extract and Pomegranate Enzyme. The glam neutral looks you’ll create with this palette can also help brighten the appearance of your complexion, and the compact palette makes for stress-free application as well.

#BlurredSkin: Get the Trend in 4 PÜR Simple Steps

by Eunice Oglice on Sep 20 2021
While we’re personally hoping for things to come a bit more into focus in our lives at the moment, the #BlurredSkin trend is the one instance where we’re thankful for blurred lines. When it comes to skin, that soft-focus, dewy filter look is all the rage, from the red carpet to TikTok and everywhere in between. Some have lauded #BlurredSkin as the simple way to an editorial, airbrushed appearance while others have put it forth as *the* look for natural light selfies. Regardless, with a vanishing effect that makes you want to get out a magnifying glass, the #BlurredSkin trend definitely has our attention for more flawless-looking and timeless makeup looks. Soft-focus up for these four simple steps to achieving the PÜR Blur. 1. Time to Prime Ready, set, prime! Set your skin up for soft-focus success by starting off the look with a primer application. A primer is the glue that holds your glow together to prevent those shiny, cakey mid-day creases that really harsh the vibe. Help mattify the complexion and lock your makeup into place with PÜR’s 4-in-1 Correcting Primer Hydrate & Balance. What we love about this multi-tasking, must-have primer is the skincare-infused formula; not only does this primer help create a base for coverage of skin imperfections, but it helps address them. With PÜR’s Proprietary Ceretin Complex, Shea Butter, Pentavitin, Grape Seed Extract and more, this star-studded skincare treatment helps promote a brighter and smoother-looking complexion, encouraging us to feel comfortable in our own skin. TO APPLY: Simply spread onto freshly moisturized skin. Allow to dry, then follow with your favorite PÜR foundation. 2. Conceal to Feel There’s a special type of relief saved for that After Concealer moment, when our skin imperfections are blurred away for the day. With PÜR’s 4-in-1 Sculpting Concealer, blend out seamless coverage to improve the appearance of blemishes, redness, and fine lines and wrinkles for a more even-looking skin tone. Help brighten the appearance of your skin, especially the delicate, dark under eye area for a more refined-looking complexion. Featuring PÜR’s Proprietary Ceretin Complex, Sodium Hyaluronate, and Caffeine, this multi-tasking concealer helps condition and revitalize the skin to help create a glowing look. TO APPLY: Apply a small amount to the desired area and smooth on with fingers or a brush. Pro Tip: Pairs perfectly with our bestselling 4-In-1 Pressed Mineral Makeup Foundation With Skincare Ingredients. 3. Balance It Out One of the most iconic features of the #BlurredSkin trend is the seamless, consistent color and coverage throughout the skin. Following your concealer with a lightweight powder helps manage oil control and minimize shine for a luminous ~ Who is she? ~ glowing look. We recommend PÜR’s silky Skin Perfecting Balancing Act Shine Control Powder to leave behind a luxe, soft matte finish that has you ready to take on the selfie game. Help keep shine at bay without adding coverage with this skincare-infused formula that helps to blur the appearance of pores and imperfections for a flawless-looking, matte complexion. TO APPLY: Using the Blurring Powder Brush, lightly sweep Balancing Act over any shiny areas on the face for a fresh, natural-matte finish. 4. All Set Lock in your complete #BlurredSkin look with a setting spray like PÜR’s Matte Mist Anti-Pollution Mattifying Setting Spray with Charcoal to help mattify the complexion. We love Matte Mist for its dual-action design. In addition to helping set your makeup, it also helps protect skin from environmental stressors, like high energy visible blue light. Refresh skin with a spritz of Matte Mist’s antioxidant-infused skincare formula that helps bring balance to oily and combination skin types for reduced appearance of shine and a natural-looking glow. TO APPLY: Shake well before use. With eyes closed, hold the bottle 8-10 inches away from the face and evenly spray 2-3 pumps before or after makeup application. Reapply throughout the day to refresh the skin.

What are Soap Brows and Why Are They Trending?

by Eunice Oglice on Aug 31 2021
Like so many trends this past year, Tik Tok has gifted us yet another beauty hack, this time, how to help attain full & fluffy brows that we think are absolutely to-die-for. Whether you’re going for a natural, minimal #faceoftheday or a show-stopping statement brow for bright and bold glam, the Soap Brow Method is a super simple way to help tame and direct your brow hair for effortless, slicked-up looks. But What Even Are Soap Brows? While the term “Soap Brows” is often used in a general sense to describe the look and effect of these glossy, brushed-out brows, we’re using it more specifically to reference the technique of achieving them. Just like they sound, Soap Brows utilize a mixture of soap and setting spray to create high-definition, fanned-out brows. We’re all about multi-action, multi-use makeup products, so we kind of nerded out when we discovered that the regular, glycerin-based soap bars we all most likely already have at home (a fresh one—not that ancient one in the corner of the shower) have gravity-defying powers that help lock brow hairs into place for all-day wear. Because of that, soap, and by extension “Soap Brows,” have evolved as an alternative to brow gel to help hold even the most stubborn of brow hairs in place for a long-lasting, fluffy yet polished look. One reason we’re hopping on this trend is because it’s useful for all brow types, no matter whether we have naturally thick or thin brows. The Soap Brow technique instantly volumizes the appearance of thin brows for a more dramatic look. For more thick or uncooperative brows, this method helps shape and set brow hairs with an editorial-ready polish. And it’s beginner-friendly, so brow babes of any experience level can try this one out to up their brow game. How Do You *Do* Soap Brows? Here’s our PÜR and simple guide to soap brows, fit with all our secret tips and tricks to creating this slicked-up, faux-laminated look for fuller-looking statement brows. Here’s What You’ll Need: Arch Nemesis 4-in-1 Dual-Ended Brow Pencil: Not only will our Arch Nemesis Brow Pencil come in super handy when it’s time to fill in any patches or add extra dimension to your brows, but it also comes with an ultra-defining spoolie brush to groom your brows, which you’ll need to brush in the soap paste. Forever Clean Gentle Cleanser: Our choice of soap for the perfect soap brows is Forever Clean, our gentle, botanical-infused cleanser. We love this option because it contains Glycerin, a skin-loving ingredient that coats each hair to help coax them into place. Plus, traditional bar soaps can possibly irritate the skin, so this is a gentle, skin-soothing base for your brows. Matte Mist Anti-Pollution Mattifying Setting Spray: A good setting spray will help hold your brows in place, but a *great* setting spray will help hold your brows in place and help protect skin from environmental stressors. This charcoal-infused setting spray will help lock in your look so that your soap brows last longer, all while helping protect skin from environmental stressors, like high energy visible blue light. Here’s What to Do: Step 1: Spray Spoolie Brush with Facial Mist Setting Spray Spritz 3-5 spurts of Matte Mist Setting Spray onto your Arch Nemesis Spoolie Brush to prime the bristles. Step 2: Apply Soap onto Spoolie Brush Carefully create a suds-free soap paste by dispensing a small amount of Forever Clean onto the Arch Nemesis brush. We always think buildable is best, so start with a little and add more if you need. Step 3: Comb Brows into Desired Shape Brush up and away, manipulating the shape of your brows to your liking. Then, gently press the brows into place with your finger. Work quickly, as the soap dries fast! Step 4: Fill in Your Brows Once the soap is dry, fill in your brows with the best-selling Arch Nemesis 4-in-1 Dual-Ended Brow Pencil for an even, fuller, more defined look. Enjoy your fluffy brows and let us know how it goes! Tag us in all your Soap Brow glory @purcosmetics on IG.

How Discovering Your Skin’s Undertones Will Change Your Glam Game

by Eunice Oglice on Aug 12 2021
Whether you’re the kind of gal to stay up late watching IG eyeshadow tutorials or wake up early to perfect your go-to look each morning, we can *all* agree that makeup is art! And, just like the best artists, we need to know a ~teensy~ bit of color theory to understand which colors work best on our canvas. A big part of that is knowing our skin’s undertones, or the naturally-occurring colors within our skin. Glamor smocks on, ladies, let’s think more about color. Imagine a canvas painted blue. Now, imagine if the canvas is painted pink, then blue. Or yellow, then blue. All of these canvases still end up blue, but a wonderfully unique shade! That’s what your undertone does for your skin. It’s the base color for your beauty. And, just to keep things straight, let’s note that undertones are not the same as skin tones (i.e. fair, medium, olive, dark). Your skin tone can change throughout the year depending on a variety of factors, like sun exposure, weather, or age. Your skin’s undertones remain the same. By discovering your undertone, you can more easily match foundations, concealers, or BB creams (choose your fighter) to your natural skin color. Get ready for this PÜR genius guide on how to determine your undertone and highlight your special ~je ne sais quoi.~ Types of Undertones There are three main types of undertones: warm, cool, and neutral. Warm: Think #Golden by Harry Styles vibes. Golds, yellows, and even peach are common in this undertone. Cool: Pinks, reds, and blues give cool undertone skin a romantic glow. Neutral: Best of both worlds, baby! You’ve got warm and cool colors shining through. Four Ways to Determine Your Undertone Ready to take a look in the mirror? Get ready for a true #tagyourself adventure. White or Off-White? We love a SYTTD binge, and if there’s one thing we’ve learned, some people *love* the way they look in white, while some opt for an off-white option. So try it out for yourself! In natural light, hold a bright white tee (or piece of paper) to your face. If your skin seems more rosy in comparison, you have cool undertones. If it seems more yellow, you’re warm. People with warm undertones tend to prefer cream/off-white clothing to pure white. If you feel like you can rock both, you have neutral undertones! Get Some Sun The way your skin reacts to the sun is often a tell-tale indicator of your undertone. Do you burn easily? Cool. You’re cool. Also, check out our Sun Protection line for everyday wear. Do you tan easily? You’re warm, you little sun goddess, you. Try out our See No More Deep Pore Cleanser to help bring out that natural sun-kissed glow. If you burn *then* tan, you’re neutral. You often find yourself saying, “It’ll fade in.” Vein Check A great way to determine your undertone, and most likely the next Tik Tok trend. If your veins appear to be blue, you have cool undertones, while green veins point towards warm tones. If you’ve got both, you’re most likely in the neutral category. Get Glitzed Out You don’t have to jump ~through~ hoops to find out your undertone, you just have to put some in. If you tend to prefer the way silver jewelry looks on your skin compared to gold, you’re likely to have cool undertones. But if traditional yellow gold is more your vibe, you’re more likely to be warm. If you can wear both, you could be a neutral gal. *But* this test can be subjective, so it’s best used as supporting evidence to one of the other methods rather than the end-all be-all. Choosing the Right Foundation for Your Undertone Knowing your undertone is a big part of finding that perfect shade. And now that you know it, let’s go get you a foundation that helps you love your complexion! But! Before we do, know this: A good foundation product doesn’t just cover your skin. It helps correct your skin to enhance your natural beauty. Because, trust us, you are ~beauty~ itself. Here are some of our favorite foundation products that honor your natural glow while helping to give you that extra boost of confidence to take on the day. Love Your Selfie Longwear Foundation and Concealer Our Love Your Selfie™ Longwear Foundation & Concealer is a paradise for undertone-based shade selection. With 100 vegan-friendly 2-in-2 foundation and concealer shades to choose from, Love Your Selfie will help mask blemishes and discoloration to showcase a natural-looking complexion.

Create the Perfect Makeup Base for Your Face Shape

by Taylor Coltellaro on Jul 27 2021
Foundation. Contour. Blush. Highlight. There’s a lot going on when it comes to prepping the perfect base for a natural on-the-go look or a night out of full glam. But did you know that there is an “ideal” way to apply your face makeup based on your specific face shape? That’s right. Help create chiseled cheeks, a snatched jawline and a lifted effect with this PÜR and simple how-to guide on makeup for your face shape: Round If you have full cheeks, a round jaw and the height and width of your face is similar, then you most likely have a round face shape. The key here is to help accentuate this plump face type by applying makeup in a way that plays up the cheekbones and creates the illusion of a sharp jawline. To do this, apply a powder or cream contour using the classic contour ‘3’ method. Yes, you literally draw a giant number starting from the top of your forehead, curving into the cheekbones and ending along the bottom of the jaw. For even more lift, avoid the apples of the cheek when applying your blush and highlight. Instead, apply blush to the top, outer edge of your cheekbone (where most would apply their highlight) and sweep highlight below the eyes, in the center of the forehead and on the chin.   Square When your forehead + cheekbones + jaw are in alignment and your angular jawline is the star of the show, then you’ve got a square face type. PSA: Contour is about to become your new BFF. Using a contour that is 2-3 shades darker than your skin tone, apply it to the outer edges of your forehead and jaw to “round” the corners of the face and help to soften the sharp angles that are signature to this shape. You can also apply contour to the hollows of the cheeks to make those cheekbones pop. For blush, add to the rounded effect by applying a pale pink blush to the apples of the cheeks, topping your look of with highlight on the forehead and chin for a radiant glow. Oval Congrats on winning the genetic lottery. Oval face shapes are seen as “ideal” because, well, they look good with just about anything. This face shape usually features a curved jawline and a forehead that’s just slightly wider than the jaw. While you can definitely apply contour under the cheekbones and along the jaw to create dimension, oval face types benefit more from a good highlighting technique. Because this face shape is already proportionate, trading in contour for a soft highlight on the forehead, chin, nose and cheeks will help bring the center of the face forward. Applying blush to the top of the cheekbones and across the nose with add a touch of dimension for a sun-kissed look. Heart The key features of this face shape are a forehead that is wider than the jaw and a pointed chin (think Reese Witherspoon), thus giving the appearance of a heart. For this face type, using makeup to help narrow the appearance of the forehead, widen the cheeks and soften the point of the chin is the secret to a balanced shape. Start by applying a powder or cream contour formula to the forehead and the temples to create the illusion of a “smaller” forehead. Next, apply the contour to the hollows of the cheeks for added dimension, then swipe it across the curve of the chin for a rounded effect. Add a lighter concealer or highlighter to the top of the cheekbones and center of the face to help widen features before completing the look with a horizontal stroke of blush across the cheeks. Voila!

Ease Back Into Your Beauty Routine with No Makeup-Makeup

by Taylor Coltellaro on May 21 2021
Let’s be honest. This past year shook our world. While I personally used to gripe over reckless drivers on my morning commute, pricey drinks at the bar and long lines at the mall, I’ve oddly found myself missing these charming moments of human interaction. Don’t get me wrong. I thoroughly enjoyed my pandemic life of sweatpants and messy buns, but I think we can all agree that ‘real’ life needs to start again.  The good news is that this reality seems to be in the near future. As the world begins to revive itself, people have started to ease back into their day-to-day work, fitness and beauty routines. And while I might not be able to give you advice on restarting your career or the perfect squat form, I can help you rediscover your makeup routine. If you are looking to finally bust back open your beauty cabinet, but aren’t sure where to start, I’m here to share the top 4 makeup products that I'm loving as I ease back into beauty: Eye Serum Tired eyes were my quarantine staple, but now that I’m out and about, it’s best I do what I can to look awake. If you’re like me and suffer from puffy or dry under eyes, try adding an eye serum into your new beauty routine. PÜR Tone Up Total Eye Fitness Serum is a lightweight under eye serum that is designed to help smooth, lift and firm the look of skin. Rich in antioxidants and hydrating ingredients, you can gently dot this cooling serum under your eyes day or night to help improve dark circles and fine lines. Tinted Moisturizer It’s no secret that my skin loved going makeup-free for the last 365 days. And now that I’ve given my complexion time to breathe, I’m ready for a just a hint of coverage. Tinted moisturizer is a fool proof way to ease your skin back into makeup while also indulging it to skincare inspired ingredients. The best-selling PÜR 4-in-1 Tinted Moisturizer is my top pick, as it features powerhouse ingredients like Sodium Hyaluronate and retinol, along with a broad spectrum SPF to help hydrate, even the look of imperfections and protect the complexion from the sun—all in one easy step. Mascara Long lashes are always a must when it comes to a simple beauty look. Mascara was—without a doubt—the top product I missed while in quarantine, and you can bet I’ve swiftly grown my collection in the past few months. If you are back into the beauty game and share a similar love of lengthy lashes, try one of my personal PÜR favorites: On Point Mascara. This jet black mascara is infused with Hemp to help condition the lashes, while the precise mascara wand helps lengthen, separate and define the look of lashes. Illuminating Setting Spray Last but not least, an illuminating setting spray is my favorite way to top off a lightweight makeup look. A glowy complexion has been one of the biggest hits this season and it is perfect for anyone starting to reconnect with their beauty bag! After apply your tinted moisturizer and mascara, simply spritz the PÜR Lit Mist Illuminating Setting Spray onto the face to help restore hydration and lock in makeup. Formulated with an Energy Complex made from a signature blend of Green Tea, Ginseng and Vitamin B, this shimmer spray helps revitalize the look of skin and delivers good-for-your-skin nutrients in just one spritz!
