FAQs
How long does the foundation truly last?
The foundation is designed to last up to 36 hours with colour-true wear, and it is resistant to sweat, heat, humidity, and transfer.
Is this foundation suitable for acne-prone skin?
Yes, this foundation is non-comedogenic, meaning it is formulated not to clog pores, and it is safe for blemish-prone and sensitive skin.
Do I need to buy a pump separately?
Yes, the pump is sold separately. Many users prefer to use a pump for more controlled and hygienic application.
Can I wear this foundation if I have oily skin?
Absolutely. The foundation offers 36-hour oil control and is formulated to help reduce sebum production with continued use, while also providing hydration.
What is the difference between the new Double Wear and the original formula?
The new formula offers enhanced makeup and skincare benefits, with a more buildable, breathable, and fluid texture, a dimensional matte finish, and improved oil control and hydration.
How can I find my perfect shade?
With 60 shades available, it's recommended to get shade-matched in-store for the most accurate result, as there may be an even better match with the enhanced pigments in the new formula.
Does the foundation contain SPF?
Yes, this foundation has SPF 10, but it is recommended to use a separate broad-spectrum sunscreen for adequate sun protection.
Troubleshooting
Foundation appears streaky or uneven upon application.
Ensure skin is properly prepped and moisturized. Shake the bottle well before use. Try using a damp beauty sponge or a denser brush for smoother application and blending. Allow each layer to set slightly before building coverage.
Skin feels tight or dry after application.
While the formula contains hydrating ingredients, ensure your skin is adequately moisturized before application. Consider using a hydrating primer. For very dry skin, you might prefer a foundation with a dewy finish.
Oil breakthrough occurs sooner than expected.
For enhanced oil control, use a mattifying primer before application. Lightly powder oily zones (like the T-zone) after foundation. Ensure you are using the correct shade, as an incorrect match can sometimes emphasize oiliness.
The color looks different in certain lighting.
It is recommended to get re-shade matched, as the enhanced pigments in the new formula may provide an even better match than your previous Double Wear shade. Test the shade in natural daylight before purchasing.
