The Too Faced Born This Way Original Foundation is engineered for effortless application and exceptional results. For best performance, begin with clean, moisturized skin. An optional primer can be used to extend wear and refine skin texture.
Application:
Dispense a small amount onto the back of your hand.
Apply to the face using a foundation brush, makeup sponge, or clean fingertips.
Start at the center of your face and blend outwards.
For additional coverage, layer product in areas needing more attention. The formula is buildable, ensuring a natural look without caking.
Expected Results: Expect a smooth, visibly blurred, and even-toned complexion. The foundation provides a natural, skin-like finish that conceals imperfections while remaining undetectable. Its hydrating texture ensures comfortable wear throughout the day.
Real-World Examples:
For a natural daily look, apply a thin layer with a damp sponge for sheer, blended coverage.
For special events or photography, build up to a fuller coverage using a brush or by stippling with a sponge for an airbrushed effect.
Wear it confidently in humid environments; its long-lasting, heat-resistant formula helps prevent fading and shine.
Prep Your Skin: Begin with a clean, moisturized face. For optimal adherence and extended wear, consider applying a makeup primer suitable for your skin type.
Dispense Product: Unscrew the cap and use the pump to dispense a small amount of foundation onto your hand or directly onto your preferred application tool.
Apply Evenly: Using fingers, a brush, or a damp beauty sponge, apply the foundation to your face. Start with a light layer and blend outward from the center of your face. Build coverage as needed.
This foundation's hydrating and breathable formula is generally compatible with a wide range of skin types. While it offers a hydrating feel, users with oily skin may benefit from pairing it with a mattifying primer and setting powder in their T-zone. The 'Pearl' shade is specifically designed for lighter skin tones.
Storage: Store the foundation in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its consistency and efficacy.
Seal Properly: Always ensure the cap is securely fastened after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to minimize exposure to air.
Hygiene: Regularly clean your application tools (brushes, sponges) to prevent bacterial buildup, which can affect both your skin and the foundation's performance. Avoid sharing your foundation with others to maintain hygiene.
