For Best Results:
-
Prep: Start with a clean, moisturized face. For oily skin, use an oil-free moisturizer and allow it to fully absorb.
-
Scoop: Using your fingertip, scoop a small amount of the mousse from the pot. A little goes a long way due to the air-whipped texture.
-
Warm: Gently warm the mousse between your fingertips to soften the texture.
-
Apply: Dot the mousse onto the center of your face: forehead, nose, chin, and both cheeks.
-
Blend: Blend outwards in circular motions using your fingertips. The mousse is designed to be applied with fingers for the best finish, though a damp sponge can also be used .
-
Build: For additional coverage, apply a second thin layer and blend again. The formula is buildable without looking cakey.
-
Set: For extended wear in the T-zone, set with translucent powder if desired.
-
Finish: Complete your makeup routine as desired.
Pro Tip for Best Application: Work quickly, as the mousse dries down fast. Blend one section at a time for an even, seamless finish.
Pro Tip for Oily Skin: Use an oil-control primer underneath for extended matte wear throughout the day.
Pro Tip for Shade Matching: Match foundation to your neck and jawline for a seamless blend.
Pro Tip for Dry Patches: Ensure skin is well-moisturized before application, as the matte formula can accentuate dry areas if skin is not properly prepped.
