Bio-Oil: Leading Hollywood Make


TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwire – April 26, 2010) –

Editors Note: There are two photos associated with this Press Release.

Making movies can be stressful work, especially when it comes to an actor’s skin. The daily rough and tumble of starring in action films holds hazards ranging from scrapes and cuts to dryness, dehydration, long hours and stress. And Hollywood make-up artist, Lise Kuhr, who helped turn Rebecca Romijn blue in X-Men III, has seen it all.

Born in Vancouver, B.C. and hot off the set of Twilight: Eclipse (opening July 30, 2010) where she worked with Dakota Fanning, Lise knows what it takes to help movie stars, and everyone else, make the most of their skin.

“From stunts and scrapes to the application and removal of make-up, an actor’s skin is more at risk when it comes to scars and dehydration than the average woman,” says Lise, who includes Bio-Oil , one of her favourite skincare products, as an essential ingredient in her Beauty First Aid Kit from the Film Set. Canada’s best-selling product for scars and overall skincare, Bio-Oil contains the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil™. An exact lab copy of the preening oil ducks use to groom their feathers, PurCellin Oil helps deliver Bio-Oil’s nourishing blend of vitamins and natural plant oils where skin needs them most, ensuring rapid absorption and a non-greasy feel.

“My Beauty First Aid Kit from the Film Set is designed to help actors protect their bankable beauty; and since it’s proven to work for them, it will definitely benefit a busy woman who gets scrapes and scratched just keeping up with her kids,” she says.

Lise’s Beauty First Aid Kit from the Film Set
When it comes to improving the appearance of scars, blemishes and even signs of aging, Lise recommends that every woman should have the following in their personal Beauty First Aid Kit:

  1. Tools of the Trade: Having the right tools, particularly high-quality brushes, can mean the difference between make-up that’s fine and make-up that’s fabulous, especially when it comes to concealing blemishes and scars.
  1. Foundation and concealer: The right concealer and foundation combination is key to concealing imperfections and achieving a flawless look, whether you need light and sheer or full coverage.
  1. Blush, Mascara and Eye Make-up: Applied correctly, each of these products have the ability to enhance any woman’s look, whether it’s light and natural or bold and dramatic.
  1. Lip Colour: Even if you prefer a natural look, protecting and improving the appearance of your lips can easily be achieved with a lip colour or lip balm.
  1. Scar treatment: Creating a smooth, even canvas to work on is the first step to a simple and manageable make-up routine. Use a quality, clinically-proven scar product to improve the appearance of new or existing scars from surgery, accidents, insect bites, scratches or even conditions such as acne or chickenpox. I like Bio-Oil because it contains: Vitamins A and E; Calendula, Lavender, Rosemary and Chamomile oils; plus PurCellin Oil for maximum absorption.

“Improving the appearance of scars and uneven skin tone can be a huge confidence booster for any woman, whether she’s a stay-at-home mom or subject to the scrutiny of the Silver Screen. But you don’t have to spend like a movie star to buy a quality skincare product,” says Lise. “I love Bio-Oil because it’s affordable, quickly absorbs and is one of the best products around for helping to improve the appearance of scars and uneven skin tone.”

Five Tinseltown Tips for Terrific Skin from Lise Kuhr

  1. Live Well: Getting your beauty sleep is probably one of the easiest ways to keep yourself looking great. Other lifestyle choices, like reducing stress and eating properly, can also contribute greatly to an overall look of well-being.
  1. Cleanse, Exfoliate and Moisturize: Find a daily skin care routine that works for you and stick to it. And remember – always wash your face before bed.
  1. Protect Skin from the Sun: If you’re going to be spending time in the sun, you need to protect your skin. Wear a hat, stay in the shade or apply sun block. Excessive exposure to the sun can lead to premature aging, sunburns and even skin cancer.
  1. No Smoking: Stopping smoking at any age will improve your outward appearance. If you decide to quit, take the opportunity to adopt habits like regular exercise.
  1. Stay Hydrated: Dehydration starves skin of one of its most vital nutrients. Start drinking water first thing in the morning and continue to replenish throughout the day.
