Gorgeously glowing skin courtesy of a custom cocktail of lush CBD 300 Face and Body Cream with Liquid Lumière in Brilliance, was the finishing touch. Prep 1. Joanna started with the NEW Bio Lifting Mask+, which gave Issa’s skin a lifted glow, then followed with the Gold Recovery Intense Concentrate A.M. and a facial massage with the Advanced Bio Lifting+ Massage Tool2. NEW 24 Karat Gold Firming Moisturizer was applied all over as a foundation base, and Issa wore Gold Energizing Eye Recovery Masks during eye makeup application.
