The THE FACE SHOP Air Cotton Makeup Base is ideal for individuals seeking a lightweight, color-correcting primer that creates a smooth canvas for foundation application. Its primary benefit is the ability to neutralize dull, yellow, or sallow skin tones while providing reliable SPF 30 PA++ protection against UV damage. While it excels at brightening and smoothing, users with extremely dry skin patches should ensure they are well-moisturized beforehand, as the formula prioritizes a lightweight, breathable finish over intense hydration.

While this base contains SPF 30 PA++, it is intended to be used as a makeup primer. For maximum sun protection, apply a dedicated sunscreen underneath.
Yes, the lightweight, 'air-like' formula is generally well-tolerated by oily and combination skin types as it does not leave a greasy residue.
Lavender is specifically designed to correct yellow and sallow tones. For redness, a green-tinted primer would be more effective.
Use a standard makeup remover or oil-based cleanser followed by your regular face wash to ensure all SPF components are removed.
Like all cosmetic products, it should be used within the timeframe indicated by the PAO (Period After Opening) symbol on the packaging, usually 12 months.
Ensure your skin is thoroughly exfoliated and moisturized; apply in thinner, layered strokes rather than one large dollop.
Wait for the primer to fully absorb and dry for at least one minute before applying foundation, or switch to a lighter water-based foundation.
You are likely using too much product; try using half the amount and blending it thoroughly into the hairline and neck area.
To apply, dispense a small amount onto your fingertips or a clean makeup sponge. Dot the product across your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin, then blend evenly until fully absorbed. Ensure the product is set for 30 seconds before applying liquid foundation or concealer. This base is compatible with most water-based foundations but should be tested with silicone-based products to ensure no pilling occurs. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the SPF filters. Always ensure the cap is tightly closed to prevent the formula from drying out.
