FAQs
What is the best way to apply loose mineral foundation?
Gently tap a small amount into the lid, swirl a clean, fluffy brush into the powder while tapping off excess, and then apply in light, circular motions, buffing into the skin. Build coverage as needed.
Can this foundation be used on acne-prone skin?
Yes, it is specifically formulated for acne-prone skin as it is non-comedogenic (does not clog pores) and contains natural minerals that are gentle on the skin.
How much coverage can I expect?
This foundation offers buildable medium coverage. You can achieve a sheer to medium finish by applying one or multiple thin layers.
Does it provide sun protection?
Yes, it contains non-nano Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide to provide natural SPF 25 protection against UV rays.
How do I choose the right shade?
Refer to the shade descriptions provided. Consider your skin tone and undertones (warm, neutral, cool). If unsure, samples or trying shades in person is recommended.
Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?
Absolutely. It is made with 100% natural, earth-derived minerals and is free from common irritants like Talc and harsh chemicals, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
How do I set my makeup with this foundation?
Apply a light layer over your liquid or cream makeup using a brush. It helps to mattify the skin and prevent makeup from smudging or settling into fine lines.
Troubleshooting
Product appears too light or too dark.
This may be due to shade selection. Refer to the shade guide and consider ordering shade samples if available. The formula can also be mixed with a drop of your preferred liquid moisturizer or primer to slightly adjust the tone.
Foundation looks cakey or settles into lines.
Ensure your skin is well-moisturized and prepped before application. Use less product and build coverage gradually. Tap off excess powder from your brush before applying. For finer lines, try a lighter application or use a setting spray to meld the product into the skin.
Difficulty in application, powder seems to skip.
Make sure you are using a high-quality, dense brush for application and that it is properly loaded with product. Gently press or buff the powder into the skin rather than just sweeping. Ensure your brush is clean and not overloaded with product.
Product seems to be oxidizing (changing color) on the skin.
This can sometimes happen with mineral makeup. Ensure your primer and moisturizer are fully absorbed before applying foundation. Allow the foundation to set for a minute or two before assessing the final color.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using your INIKA Organic Loose Mineral Foundation, gently tap a small amount of product into the lid. Use a clean, fluffy brush to pick up the powder. Swirl the brush into the powder in the lid, tapping off any excess. Apply to the face in light, circular motions, starting from the center and blending outwards. For increased coverage, repeat with another light layer. This foundation is compatible with most skincare routines and primers. To care for the product, ensure the lid is tightly sealed after each use to prevent spillage and maintain freshness. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
