Showcase 60 | January 2013 www.womanthismonth.com Nurture Your Skin GULF PHARMACY Dry skin is to be expected during the colder months, an ailment that can easily be solved with a good moisturiser. Dry heels, however, need a more specialised treatment. Flexitol Heel Balm is an international market leader in foot care. Its unique formula contains 25 per cent urea in a highly concentrated, moisturising base to soften cracked heels and feet. The combination of emollient ingredients actively replenishes moisture deep below the surface of the skin, promoting a visibly healthier skin in just three days of application. Its non-greasy texture is easy to use and free from SLS and Parabens, making it ideal for sensitive skin. The pro-vitamin B5, vitamin E and L-arginine ingredients used give the balm an enhanced effect and exfoliating properties and the medically-proven treatment is diabetic friendly. To protect both your hands and feet, try Flexitol’s Hand Balm that has a nourishing formulation developed by dermatologists to soothe itchy, irritated skin while protecting from damaging agents. The formula has been fortified with Vitamin E for replenishment from the first application. Unlike other lotions and creams, it is richly formulated, so a little goes a long way. Supple lips can also be maintained with the brand’s conditioning balm. The effective moisturiser locks water in while simultaneously nourishing the skin using a blend of components that includes urea and cocoa butter. Call 17 877-107 or visit www.gctbahrain.com. A Show-stopping Look GRIMAS The experts behind a leading professional make-up brand talk to Woman This Month about how to achieve a fabulous make-over with no damage to the skin. The product range from Grimas professional make-up is full of options. The collection complies with catwalk trends and ensures you have all the tools you need to look flawless for any big event you have upcoming. Plus, the brand specialises in theatrical and dramatic make-up with bold lashes, glitters and a huge variety of high-pigmented eye shadows. Devised by a group of experts, the team knows a thing or two about the importance of a woman’s daily make-up routine. “First, moisturise your skin before any make-up application to hydrate and protect your skin,” advises Laila Dashti, Grimas’ marketing manager. “Hide any under-eye dark circles or blemishes with a concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin. Next, apply a generous coat of mascara to open up the eyes and finally apply a lipstick or gloss to give a hint of colour.” For women with dry or sensitive skin, Laila suggests the use of liquid or cream-based foundation. “All of these Grimas products are paraben, chemical and fragrance free and will not irritate the skin,” she adds. “Alternatively, those with oily skin should opt for our water-based foundation. It has a velvety, matt finish that will remain all day.” The brand will celebrate the New Year with 15 per cent off the entire product range, so now is the time to reinvent yourself for 2013!
