How do you prepare your skin for Mineral Makeup?
To get the best results from your L'OYÉ Mineral Makeup, proper preparation is important. It starts with a light, hydrating day cream. Here are the most important tips:
Choose the right day cream
Hydration is important: Well-hydrated skin prevents a dry or flaky look. Look for ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or aloe vera.
Silicone-free: Mineral Makeup adheres best to smooth skin. Avoid silicones and heavy ingredients such as shea butter or kerosene, which leave a greasy film and can cause makeup to slip.
Avoid these ingredients for day cream with Mineral Makeup:
- Mineral Oil (Mineral Oil, Paraffinum Liquidum).
- Petroleum or Petrolatum
- Lanolin
- Thick waxes (Beeswax, Candelilla Wax)
- Dimethicone and other heavy silicones
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclohexasiloxane
- Alcohol Denat or Ethanol
- Kaolin, Tapioca Starch, Corn Starch (in high concentrations)
These ingredients may interfere with the adhesion or spreadability of Mineral Makeup. Choose a light, moisturizing day cream!
How do you apply day cream?
Step 1: Cleanse your face. Start with clean skin.
Step 2: Use a small amount. Gently massage the cream in with your fingers.
Step 3: Let it soak in. Wait 2 minutes before applying your Makeup so that the cream absorbs well into the skin.
Tips for different skin types
Oily or combination skin: Use a light gel cream that reduces excess oil, such as with niacinamide.
Dry skin: Choose a soothing cream with ingredients such as ceramides or aloe vera.
Mature skin: Go for a cream with anti-aging ingredients such as vitamin C, but choose a light formula.
Summary
Use a light, hydrating day cream without silicones or heavy oils. Leave the cream on well before applying your Mineral Makeup for perfect results!

It prevents shine throughout the day while protecting and soothing the skin. For best results, use an oil-free moisturizer as a base and apply Makeup with a light hand for a natural, even look. Perfect for keeping your skin fresh and balanced!
Dry skin: Mineral Makeup can support your dry skin by being mild and natural. Ingredients such as zinc oxide and mica soothe the skin and allow it to breathe without clogging pores. Using a moisturizing base keeps your skin feeling comfortable. Mineral Makeup contributes to a healthy look and prevents extra dryness while providing natural coverage. Perfect for skin that needs a little extra love!
