An exciting brand, which was once only available online, is now going to be launching here in Canada soon. For those of you who are familiar with the Vichy Dermablend line it is now on its way out and the majority of the Dermablend Professional makeup line is on its way in and will be sold at Shoppers Drug Mart.

For those who don’t know about the line, Dermablend is a camouflage makeup brand and was created by a dermatologist named Dr. Craig Roberts in 1981. When traditional skincare is no longer effective, that’s when Dermablend comes in to solve the problem. It is the first professional makeup line to be born from dermatology. It is a highly pigmented product and is safe for even the most sensitive skin. It’s non-comedogenic, fragrance free and allergy-tested formulas and large range of shades make it suitable for pretty much anyone.

One of Dermablend’s must-have products is their Cream Foundation. It is a maximum coverage, cream foundation that glides on the skin smoothly, keeps the skin hydrated and will cover anything from birthmarks to burns. This foundation comes in 21 different colours and when set with a finishing powder, it will last up to 16 hours making this a truly incredible product.

For those of you who don’t like the rich and creamy textures, the Intense Powder Camo is the product for you. It has a medium coverage when applied lightly or can be built up to a full coverage foundation, similar to the Cream Foundation. The main difference is this product has a matte finish to it so it’s perfect for those who have an oilier or acne-prone complexion.

Another excellent product from the line is the Quick Fix Body. It is a full coverage stick foundation that is meant for covering up imperfections on the body. It is super easy to apply and blend and is completely non-transferable when set with a setting powder. This product will even cover up tattoos, but still look completely natural.

These are just a few of the many exciting products to be launched here in Canada.

If you are one who loves your makeup and especially loves anything full coverage, these products are must-haves. Or, if you have any stubborn skin pigment imperfections that you have never been able to properly camouflage, Dermablend may be the answer to all your prayers.
