Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base - 100ml

A Face Base, like this one, is designed to serve a dual purpose: it deeply moisturizes your skin while also acting as a primer. While a regular moisturizer focuses solely on hydration, a face base specifically preps your skin to create a smooth, even, and long-lasting canvas for makeup application, helping it to adhere better and look flawless.

Yes, you can. While it provides rich hydration, its non-greasy formula can still benefit oily skin by balancing moisture without adding excess oil. We recommend using a smaller amount, focusing on areas that may need hydration or priming, and allowing ample time for it to absorb before applying makeup. Some users with very oily skin may prefer to use it only in drier areas or during colder months.

No, the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base does not contain SPF. It is designed purely for hydration and makeup priming. We recommend applying a separate sunscreen product after the Face Base and before your foundation for adequate sun protection.

A small, pea-sized amount is usually sufficient for the entire face. Its concentrated formula means a little goes a long way. Adjust the quantity based on your skin's needs and how much coverage you desire, but always start small and add more if needed.

Absolutely! The Vitamin Enriched Face Base is excellent even without makeup. It provides immediate hydration, nourishment, and leaves your skin feeling smooth and looking radiant. It can be a great addition to your morning skincare routine for a healthy glow.

The formula is designed to be non-comedogenic, meaning it's formulated not to clog pores. However, individual skin reactions can vary. If you are prone to breakouts, ensure you cleanse your skin thoroughly both before and after use, and use the recommended small amount.

With daily use of a pea-sized amount, a 100ml jar can typically last several months, often 6-9 months or even longer, depending on the exact quantity used per application. Always refer to the Period After Opening (PAO) symbol on the product for guidance on its shelf life after opening.

This often happens if too much product is used, or if it hasn't fully absorbed. Try using a smaller amount and allowing 1-2 minutes for the Face Base to set before applying makeup. Also ensure previous skincare steps have fully absorbed.

You might be using too much product for your skin type, especially if you have naturally oily skin. Reduce the amount you apply. Alternatively, try applying only to drier areas of your face, or blot lightly with a tissue a minute after application before makeup.

While the Face Base aids longevity, other factors like skin type, foundation formula, and environmental conditions play a role. Ensure your foundation is compatible with a hydrating primer. You might also consider setting your makeup with a light powder or setting spray for additional staying power.

Check the storage conditions; extreme temperatures or direct sunlight can affect product stability. Ensure the lid is always tightly closed. If it's well past its PAO date, it might be time to replace it. If none of these apply, contact customer support.
