FAQs

What skin types is this foundation suitable for?

The Ilia True Skin Serum Foundation is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. Its non-comedogenic formula makes it less likely to clog pores.

How do I choose the right shade?

Test the foundation on your jawline in natural light to find the best match. Consider your undertones (warm, cool, or neutral).

Can I use this foundation with other makeup products?

Yes, it works well with other makeup products. Ensure your base products (primer, moisturizer) are compatible and allow them to absorb before applying the foundation.

How much coverage does it provide?

It provides buildable, medium coverage. You can apply thin layers to achieve your desired level of coverage.

Does it contain SPF?

No, it does not contain SPF. Always use a separate sunscreen in your skincare routine.

How should I store the foundation?

Store the foundation in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.

How long does a bottle typically last?

This depends on how often you use it. On average, a bottle can last several months with regular use.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears cakey or patchy.

Ensure your skin is properly moisturized. Use a damp sponge to blend the foundation and avoid applying too much product at once.

Shade doesn't match skin tone.

Re-evaluate the shade match in different lighting. Consider mixing shades or using a shade adjuster.

Foundation settles into fine lines.

Use a primer before application. Apply a thin layer of foundation and set with a light dusting of powder.

Foundation oxidizes and changes color.

Ensure the foundation is compatible with your skincare. Test on a small area of skin before applying all over.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply primer if desired, according to your skin type.
  2. Application: Dispense a small amount of foundation onto the back of your hand or a makeup palette. Use a brush, sponge, or your fingers to apply and blend the foundation.
  3. Blending: Start blending from the center of your face outward. Blend down to the jawline and neck to avoid harsh lines.
  4. Layering: For more coverage, add thin layers, blending each layer before adding the next.
  5. Setting (Optional): If desired, set the foundation with a translucent powder, especially if you have oily skin.
  6. Compatibility: Works well with most skincare products. Be sure to allow your moisturizer or sunscreen to absorb before applying the foundation.
  7. Care: Clean your applicators regularly with makeup brush cleaner or gentle soap and water. This prevents buildup and ensures a smooth application.
