For a virtually perfect complexion, follow these steps:
Prep Skin: Begin by applying Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer to create a smooth, even base.
Dot Application: Apply 3 triangular dots of the stick in the center of both sides of your face (cheeks), 3 dots on your chin, and 3 dots on your forehead.
Buff & Blend: Using the Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Brush, buff the product into your skin using tiny circular motions until seamlessly blended.
Conceal: To use as a concealer, apply 3 triangular dots under each eye. Blend by stippling and buffing with the Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Brush.
For a natural, everyday look with lighter coverage:
Prep Skin: Start with Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer.
Light Application: Lightly dot the foundation stick only where needed, such as on the chin, forehead, and center of the face.
Buff & Blend: Gently buff the product in with the Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Brush using tiny circular motions.
Conceal: For light under-eye concealing, lightly dot the foundation under the eyes as needed and blend using your ring finger with a gentle tapping motion.
The unique triangular bullet design makes this stick ideal for adding dimension to your face:
Contour: Select a shade 1-2 shades deeper than your natural skin tone. Apply along areas you wish to define, such as under cheekbones, jawline, and temples.
Highlight: Choose a shade 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone. Apply to high points of your face like the bridge of your nose, brow bones, and tops of cheekbones.
To maximize the performance of your Hourglass Vanish Seamless Foundation Stick, proper preparation and tools are recommended.
Preparation: Always start with a well-prepped skin canvas. The product description specifically recommends using Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer to ensure the smoothest application and extended wear. This creates an ideal surface for the foundation to adhere to and helps the product blend effortlessly.
Compatibility: For the most seamless and flawless finish, this foundation stick is specifically designed to be used with the Hourglass Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Brush. While you can use other blending tools, this brush is optimized for the product's unique texture and high pigment concentration.
Care: To maintain the product's integrity and hygiene, keep the cap securely on after each use to prevent drying and exposure to air. Avoid storing in extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or humid environments. For cleaning the stick itself, gently wipe the surface with a clean tissue if needed to remove any buildup, but direct washing with water is not recommended. For the accompanying brush, regular cleaning with a gentle brush cleanser is advised to prevent product buildup and maintain performance.
