FAQs

How do I choose the right shade?

Consult the brand's shade guide online or visit a store to test the foundation on your jawline to find the closest match to your skin tone.

Can I use this foundation if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, it is dermatologist-tested and contains soothing ingredients. Always perform a patch test first.

Is this foundation good for oily skin?

While it's non-comedogenic, oily skin users might need to set it with a powder for extended wear. Use an oil-control primer.

How much coverage does it provide?

It provides buildable, medium coverage. You can apply multiple layers for more coverage, but it will still have a natural look.

What's the best way to apply the foundation?

You can use a brush, sponge, or your fingers. Experiment to see which method works best for your skin type and desired finish.

Does this foundation contain SPF?

No, the foundation does not contain SPF. It's recommended to apply a separate sunscreen underneath.

How can I make the foundation last longer?

Use a primer before application. Set the foundation with a setting powder and use a setting spray for extra hold.

Can I use this foundation with other makeup products?

Yes, it is compatible with most makeup products. Apply the foundation after your skincare routine and before other makeup, such as blush and bronzer.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears cakey or uneven.

Ensure your skin is properly moisturized and prepped. Use a damp sponge to blend and avoid applying too much product at once. Try a different application method (brush vs. fingers) to see what works best for your skin.

Foundation doesn't last throughout the day.

Use a setting powder to lock in the foundation. Consider using a primer before application. Avoid touching your face and use blotting papers to remove excess oil.

Shade appears too light or too dark.

Carefully review the shade options. If needed, mix with a lighter or darker foundation to create a custom shade.

Foundation is accentuating pores or fine lines.

Use a pore-minimizing primer before application. Apply the foundation in thin layers and blend well. Use a very small amount of foundation.
