What skin types and concerns is the Soft Glam Satin Foundation suitable for?

How should I apply it to get the best finish?

For an even, natural-looking result, start with a clean, moisturized face and use a primer if you prefer extra longevity. Apply a small amount and build in thin layers—use a brush, sponge, or clean fingertips and blend outward for seamless coverage.

• Use a damp sponge for sheerer coverage and a buffing brush for fuller coverage
• Apply in thin layers to avoid cakiness and to control coverage placement
• Set with a light dusting of powder in high-traffic areas, if desired
