FAQs
How do I choose the right shade?
Test shades on your jawline in natural light to find the closest match to your skin tone. Consider your undertone (cool, warm, or neutral) for the best match.
Is this foundation suitable for sensitive skin?
The foundation is dermatologically tested and contains natural origin ingredients. However, if you have very sensitive skin, do a patch test first.
Can I use this foundation if I have oily skin?
Yes, the foundation provides a matte finish and is designed to control shine. However, proper skincare is still crucial.
How much product should I use?
Start with a small amount and build up coverage as needed. A pump or two is usually sufficient for the entire face.
How do I clean the pump?
Use a cotton swab to clean around the pump opening regularly to prevent clogging. Be careful not to damage the pump mechanism.
What is the shelf life after opening?
Check the packaging for the PAO (Period After Opening) symbol, which indicates how long the product is good for after opening (usually 12-24 months).
Can I use a brush or sponge to apply the foundation?
Yes, you can use either a brush or a sponge. For a more natural finish, use fingers. For increased coverage and correction, use a brush or blender.
What is the coverage level of this foundation?
The Givenchy Prisme Libre Skin-Caring Matte Foundation offers medium, buildable coverage, allowing you to customize your look.
Troubleshooting
Foundation appears cakey or patchy.
Ensure proper skin preparation (moisturizing and priming). Use a small amount of foundation and blend thoroughly. Consider using a damp makeup sponge for a smoother application.
Foundation doesn't last all day.
Set the foundation with a setting powder. Use a makeup setting spray. Check that your skincare routine underneath is compatible with your foundation.
Shade appears too light or dark.
Re-evaluate the shade match. Try mixing with a lighter or darker shade. Apply the foundation in natural light to assess the color.
Foundation emphasizes fine lines or pores.
Use a hydrating primer before application. Apply a very thin layer of foundation and use a blending sponge. Ensure proper skincare before application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Application
Preparation: Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply a primer for extended wear and a smoother finish.
Application: For a natural finish, apply with fingers. For increased coverage and correction, use a brush or blender. Begin with the T-zone, followed by the cheeks. Blend from the center out to the edges of the face. Gently tap to help the active ingredients penetrate deep into the skin.
Layering: Build coverage by layering the foundation as needed.
Compatibility
Skin Types: Suitable for most skin types, including combination and oily skin, due to its mattifying properties. Those with very dry skin may need to ensure proper moisturizing before application.
Other Products: Compatible with most skincare and makeup products. Can be paired with Givenchy Prisme Libre Loose Powder or Pressed Powder for an enhanced matte finish.
Care
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Cleaning: Clean the pump opening regularly to prevent clogging. Avoid dropping the bottle to prevent damage.
Removal: Use a makeup remover specifically designed for long-wear or waterproof formulas.
