Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this foundation suitable for sensitive skin?

The formula contains nourishing ingredients like Niacinamide and Squalane, but if you have highly reactive skin, it is recommended to perform a patch test first.

Can I use a brush instead of the provided puff?

Yes, while the puff is designed for the best cushion application, a densely packed synthetic foundation brush can also be used for a different finish.

How do I know when the cushion is empty?

If pressing the cushion with your puff no longer picks up significant product, you can flip the internal sponge over to access the remaining foundation at the bottom.

Does this product provide sun protection?

Always check the specific label on your packaging, as regional formulas may vary regarding SPF inclusion.

How long does the glowy effect last?

The formula is designed for all-day wear, though environmental factors like humidity may require a quick touch-up.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears too dewy or shiny by midday

Lightly dust a translucent setting powder over the T-zone or areas of excess oil to maintain the finish without dulling the glow.

Coverage feels too sheer during application

Use a tapping motion rather than swiping to build coverage, layering additional product only after the first layer has settled.

Foundation dries out inside the compact

Ensure the inner seal is pressed firmly shut after every use and store the compact away from direct sunlight and high heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, start with a clean, moisturized base. If using other serums, allow them to absorb fully before applying the foundation.

Application: Use the included puff to pick up a small amount of product. Start from the center of the face and tap outward.
Compatibility: The formula works well with most cream or powder bronzers and blushes. To maintain the finish, use cream-based cheek products.
Care: To keep the cushion sanitary, wash the puff regularly with mild soap and warm water, then allow it to air dry completely. Close the inner lid tightly after every use to prevent the serum-infused formula from drying out.
