Troubleshooting

  • Foundation appears streaky or uneven: Ensure skin is properly prepped and moisturized. Apply with a clean brush or sponge and blend thoroughly.
  • Foundation looks cakey: Use a smaller amount of product. Blend well and consider using a damp sponge for a more natural finish.
  • Shine breakthrough: This foundation offers shine control, but for very oily skin, consider using a mattifying primer underneath and setting with a powder.
  • Product separation: Shake the bottle vigorously before each use to re-emulsify the formula.
