FAQs
Is this foundation suitable for oily skin?
Yes, while it provides a luminous finish, its lightweight formula is suitable for oily skin. We recommend prepping with a mattifying primer in oily areas and setting with a light powder to extend wear.
How do I choose the right shade?
It is best to swatch 2-3 potential shades on your jawline and check them in natural light. Consider your skin's undertone (cool, warm, neutral) as well as your skin depth.
Can I build this foundation to full coverage?
This foundation is designed for buildable medium coverage. While you can layer it for more coverage, it may not achieve a true full coverage finish. For areas needing more opacity, we recommend using a concealer.
What is the best way to apply Luminous Silk Foundation?
You can apply it with a damp beauty sponge for a sheer, dewy finish, a foundation brush for buildable medium coverage, or even your fingertips for a natural, skin-like look.
Does this foundation oxidize?
The Luminous Silk Foundation is formulated to minimize oxidation. However, individual skin chemistry can influence how any foundation wears throughout the day. It's always best to test it on your skin before a full application.
Troubleshooting
Foundation looks patchy or clings to dry spots.
Ensure your skin is well-hydrated and exfoliated before application. Use a hydrating primer. Apply less product and blend thoroughly.
Shade appears too light/dark or wrong undertone after application.
Ensure you are matching your foundation in natural light. If slightly off, you can adjust with bronzer/contour or by mixing with a small amount of a darker/lighter foundation, or select a new shade.
Foundation doesn't last all day.
Prep skin with a suitable primer. Set with a light layer of translucent setting powder, especially in areas prone to oiliness. Consider using a setting spray.
Foundation emphasizes fine lines or pores.
Use less product. Apply a blurring or pore-filling primer beforehand. Press the foundation into the skin rather than rubbing it. Lightly set with powder using a tapping motion.
