For First Time Use:
  1. Prime the Pen: Upon first use, twist the bottom of the pen 10-15 times or until the product becomes visible on the sponge tip .
  2. Check Dispensing: Ensure product has reached the applicator before applying to the face.
For Color Correcting Redness:
  1. Prep Skin: Start with clean, moisturized skin. Apply primer if desired and allow to absorb.
  2. Apply Corrector: Using the sponge tip applicator, apply the green corrector directly onto any red areas including rosacea patches, acne spots, broken capillaries, or general redness .
  3. Blend: Gently tap and blend the corrector into the skin using your fingertip, a damp beauty sponge, or the sponge tip itself. Blend well to avoid a green cast .
  4. Let Set: Allow the corrector to dry for a moment on the skin.
  5. Apply Foundation: Apply your regular foundation or concealer on top of the corrected areas .
  6. Blend Again: Gently blend foundation over the corrector for a flawless, even finish.
For Best Results:
  • Use Before Foundation: Apply color corrector BEFORE foundation or concealer for the most effective results .
  • Less is More: Start with a small amount of product. The pigmentation is strong, so you can always build if needed.
  • Blend Thoroughly: The green pigment is powerful and must be blended well to avoid leaving a green cast on the skin .
  • Top with Foundation: Always layer foundation or concealer on top of the green corrector to neutralize the green tint and achieve a natural skin tone.
Pro Tips:
  • For Acne Spots: Apply a tiny dot directly onto each red blemish, blend the edges only, then apply foundation over the entire face.
  • For Rosacea: Apply a thin layer over the entire cheek and nose area where redness is present, blend well, then apply foundation.
  • For Broken Capillaries: Use the precision tip to apply directly onto individual broken capillaries around the nose and cheeks.
  • Don't Over-Blend: Apply the corrector directly on the red area and blend the edges, leaving the center slightly thicker for maximum correction.
