The Lancome Teint Miracle Foundation is designed to deliver a luminous, 'barely there' finish while providing effective coverage. For best results, start with clean, moisturized skin. Apply a small amount of foundation to the back of your hand, then use a foundation brush, sponge, or your fingertips to apply it to your face.
Application for Natural Coverage: Dot foundation on your forehead, nose, chin, and cheeks. Blend outwards using gentle, sweeping motions. For a sheerer finish, a damp beauty sponge works well.
Building Coverage: For areas requiring more coverage, such as redness or blemishes, gently pat additional product onto the specific spots and blend the edges. Avoid rubbing.
Achieving Radiance: This foundation naturally provides a glow. For an extra radiant boost, mix a drop of liquid highlighter into your foundation before applying, or apply highlighter to high points of your face after foundation.
Setting for Longevity: If you have oily skin or want extended wear, lightly dust a translucent setting powder over your T-zone or entire face.
Shade 005 Beige Ivorie: This particular shade is typically suited for very fair skin tones with neutral or slightly cool undertones. Always test a small amount on your jawline in natural light to ensure a seamless match.
Initial Setup: Ensure your skin is prepped. Cleanse, tone, and moisturize thoroughly before applying foundation. A primer can be used to extend wear and refine skin texture.
Compatibility: This foundation is generally compatible with most skincare routines and primers. For best results, avoid oil-heavy primers if you prefer a matte finish, or use a hydrating primer if you seek extra dewiness.
Care and Storage: Store the foundation in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain its efficacy and texture. Ensure the pump or cap is securely closed after each use to prevent air exposure.
Applicator Hygiene: Regularly clean your foundation brushes and sponges with mild soap and water to prevent bacterial buildup and ensure smooth, hygienic application. Dirty tools can lead to patchy application and skin breakouts.
