With buildable full coverage and a luminous finish, you can easily customize your look from sheer to full coverage using our signature Swirl, Tap, Buff® method. This unique application technique allows the mineral pigments to transform into a silky cream that seamlessly blends into your skin, providing a breathable and naturally radiant appearance.
Moreover, this foundation offers effective protection against harmful UV rays with its broad-spectrum SPF 15. Unlike chemical sunscreens, which absorb UV rays, our non-chemical mineral sunscreen contains active minerals titanium dioxide and zinc oxide that work by blocking UV rays from penetrating the skin.
Finding the perfect shade has never been easier, as we offer 30 shades that maintain their true color throughout the day—ensuring no oxidation or color change.
To apply, follow our simple Swirl, Tap, Buff® method:
- SWIRL: Take a small amount of foundation in the cap until it disappears into the brush.
- TAP: Gently tap away any excess product.
- BUFF: Buff onto your skin in circular motions. This activates the minerals, transforming them from a powder to a silky cream. Repeat until you achieve your desired coverage, whether it’s sheer or full.
