The Makeup Artist’s Choice For Flawless 16-Hour Makeup

Award-winning cosmetics brand SKINDINAVIA celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. The original authority on makeup finishing sprays, SKINDINAVIA is the professional choice for that all-day just-applied look. Applied as a lightweight, breathable mist, SKINDINAVIA makeup finishing sprays are the only product clinically-proven to set liquid and powder makeup and hold cosmetics vibrantly in place for up to 16 hours.

SKINDINAVIA recently expanded its lineup with the first and only lightweight, silicone-free primer spray that delivers a smooth canvas for impeccable, long-wear makeup application that offers long-term skin benefits. The lightweight, good-for-you oil-control primer spray delivers a balanced canvas for all-day makeup wear that slows oil production, prevents redness, uneven skin tone and large pores.

Skindinavia was created in one of the more unlikely places. It was there, at a Miami nightclub, that eventual SKINDINAVIA founder Allen Goldman found inspiration – in the face of glitter, lipstick and oppressive heat.

Cosmetics industry veteran, Goldman found himself surrounded by melted makeup. Beautiful women mingled with shiny foundation and streaked bronzer, fanning their faces to no avail. Drawing upon his cosmetic industry experience, he theorized that if he was able to keep makeup from becoming overheated, he could solve the problem of makeup meltdown that had yet to have a solution. That day SKINDINAVIA was born.

Goldman earned access to top national chemists and an interesting ingredient piqued his interest. He observed a new temperature-control technology could provide a time-released cooling property on the surface of the skin when needed.  He then came up with the simple idea of using this to keep the makeup surface cool to prevent makeup meltdown and excess shine.

The product launched to the acclaim of high-style film and television studio artists in New York and Los Angeles as it greatly reduced the need for touch-ups on set during long days under hot studio lighting. Tested under extreme conditions for makeup such as NYC subways, Vegas showgirls performing in 110 degree heat and Lady Gaga’s international tours, SKINDINAVIA has become the number one choice of global makeup artists community and by women everywhere who want to be sure their makeup always looks freshly applied.

“I gave it a good test run by sleeping in my makeup after the GLAMOUR Women of the Year Awards and

I’m happy to say that I woke up looking just as fresh as I went to bed the night before.”

SKINDINAVIA, founded in 2005 by cosmetics industry veteran Allen Goldman, creates products that set and enhance the work of makeup artists during long days under hot studio lighting. Our revolutionary Makeup Finishing Spray was launched in 2007, after two years of development, to the acclaim of high-style film and television studio artists in New York and Los Angeles as it greatly reduced the need for touch-ups on set. It remains the only makeup setting product clinically tested to hold for 16 hours.

SKINDINAVIA was the first brand to use patented Temperature Control Technology to keep makeup from melting and becoming too shiny and is clinically-proven to keep those colors vibrant for up to 16 hours. Today, SKINDINAVIA is the number one choice of global makeup artists community and by women everywhere who want to be sure their makeup always looks freshly applied.

The first silicone-free makeup spray primer on the market. Silicone is so slippery it can actually make your makeup “pool” into pores. This primer has been clinically shown to reduce pore size, redness and users also noticed fewer breakouts and balanced sebum production over 4 weeks, it’s like you’re misting the equivalent of green juice, let’s say, on your skin every single day that helps your it rebound and counteract the effects of talcs, foundation, etc.

In a third-party clinical trial:

• 93% of users said it made their pores look less noticeable.
• 97% said their skin appears less oily throughout the day.
• 90% said their makeup has never looked better!

Personal note: I tried The MakeUp Primer Spray and am anxious to see the complete results with the Makeup Finishing Spray. I must remember to “shake it well” as directed on the bottle – So be sure to do that first. I have a habit of forgetting but I am working on that. I do see a great improvement in my make up settling into my (YIKES, must I say it…) fine lines and wrinkles. It doesn’t settle there! I follow the package directions and spray 3 to 4 times in an X and T formation.  It feels so refreshing going on, I can’t help but spray some on my neck and decollete too.  I want to give it a week or so more of use to find even better improvement in the results. I hope to report back soon on the Finishing Spray! Lisa 🙂
