Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & Application
- Prepare Skin: Start with clean, moisturized skin. Apply your usual skincare routine, including primer if desired.
- Dispense: Shake the bottle well. Dispense a small amount onto the back of your hand, a makeup palette, or directly onto your applicator.
- Apply: Using a foundation brush, sponge, or your fingertips, dot the foundation onto your face (forehead, nose, cheeks, chin).
- Blend: Blend outwards from the center of your face, ensuring even coverage. Pay attention to the jawline and hairline to avoid harsh lines. Build up coverage in areas where needed.
- Set (Optional): For extended wear or to mattify certain areas, lightly dust with a setting powder.
Compatibility
This foundation is generally well-suited for normal, dry, and combination skin types due to its hydrating properties. Its skincare-infused formula aims to benefit skin hydration and plumpness. For oily skin, a light dusting of setting powder, especially in the T-zone, might be desired to control shine, although the radiant finish is part of its design.
Care
- Storage: Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the formula and SPF.
- Hygiene: Keep the cap tightly closed when not in use. Regularly clean your application tools (brushes, sponges) to prevent bacterial buildup and ensure smooth application.
- Shelf Life: Check the PAO (Period After Opening) symbol on the packaging, usually indicated by a number followed by 'M' inside an open jar icon (e.g., `12M` for 12 months). Discard after this period or if the product's texture, color, or smell changes.
