Skin Functional expands into skincare for makeup with new range of performance-priming formulas
SKIN functional, a trusted leader in results-driven skincare, proudly announced the launch of its first-ever Primer Range this past weekend at The Forum in Johannesburg with their customers, media personalities, influencers, and makeup artists such as Raine Tauber, who conducted five informative masterclasses on this spectacular new range.
