FAQs

Does this foundation provide sun protection?

While it contains skincare ingredients, always apply a dedicated SPF product underneath for full sun protection.

Can I use a brush instead of the included puff?

Yes, a densely packed synthetic foundation brush can work, though the puff is specifically designed to maximize the glow effect.

Is this suitable for sensitive skin?

The formula includes gentle hydrating ingredients like squalane and niacinamide, but we recommend a patch test if you have known sensitivities.

How often should I replace the applicator puff?

For optimal hygiene, wash the puff weekly and replace it every 2-3 months.

Will this foundation settle into fine lines?

Due to its high serum content, it is designed to hydrate the skin and minimize the appearance of fine lines, but prepping with a primer can improve results.

Troubleshooting

Product appears uneven on the skin

Ensure you are using a pressing, dabbing motion rather than wiping or dragging the puff across your face.

Coverage feels too light

Wait thirty seconds after the first layer for the product to set, then gently pat a second layer over the areas requiring more coverage.

Compact hinge or latch feels loose

Check that the refill is fully seated in the compact; improper seating can prevent the internal mechanism from closing properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install your refill, ensure the empty compact is clean and open. Align the tabs on the bottom of the refill cartridge with the corresponding slots in your YSL compact and press firmly until it clicks into place. For care, keep the inner lid tightly closed when not in use to prevent the serum-infused liquid from drying out. Regularly wash your applicator puff with mild soap and warm water to maintain hygiene and ensure a smooth, streak-free application every time.
