FAQs

What is the main benefit of the 'Double Serum' technology in this foundation?

The Double Serum technology infuses the foundation with advanced skincare ingredients that provide anti-aging benefits, hydration, and improve skin texture over time, while also offering coverage.

How does the coverage dial work?

The dial allows you to customize the blend of the color phase and the hydration phase. Turning it adjusts the ratio, enabling you to control the coverage level from medium to full and the amount of skincare serum infused.

Can I use this foundation if I have sensitive skin?

The foundation is formulated for all skin types, including sensitive skin. However, it's always recommended to perform a patch test if you have known sensitivities to skincare ingredients.

What is the expected wear time of this foundation?

The Clarins Double Serum Foundation is designed for long-lasting wear, providing comfortable, flawless coverage for up to 12 hours.

How should I apply this foundation for the best results?

For best results, choose your made-to-measure dose with the dial and apply using the Gua Sha-Inspired foundation brush for a sculpted look, or use your fingers by mixing both phases in your palm and blending from the center outwards. Gently press with your palms for perfect blending.

Does this foundation offer skincare benefits beyond immediate coverage?

Yes, with continued use, it visibly reduces fine lines and wrinkles, refines skin texture, and maintains hydration. Consumers have reported smoother skin and fewer signs of aging over time.

Is the packaging environmentally friendly?

Yes, the packaging is sustainable, featuring a bottle made with 40% recycled material and a 95% recyclable bottle, reflecting Clarins' commitment to responsible practices.

Troubleshooting

Uneven application or streaking

Ensure skin is properly prepped and moisturized. Try using a foundation brush or sponge for a smoother blend. Ensure the coverage dial is set to your desired level and mix the product well before application.

Foundation feels too heavy or greasy

Adjust the coverage dial to a lower setting, reducing the proportion of the color phase and increasing the serum phase. Ensure you are using a small amount of product initially.

Foundation appears too dry or cakey

Increase the serum phase by adjusting the dial to a higher setting for more hydration. Ensure your skin is well-hydrated before application. Try applying with damp fingers or a damp sponge.

Product separation in the bottle

This is normal due to the dual-phase formula. Gently shake or roll the bottle before use, or mix the product well using the dial mechanism on the pump.

Shade mismatch

The foundation is available in 37 shades. If the current shade is not suitable, consult the product's shade range to find a better match. Consider undertones when selecting a shade.
