Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Foundation suitable for oily skin?

Yes, its natural luminous matte finish is designed to help control shine, making it an excellent choice for oily and combination skin types.

Does this foundation clog pores?

The upgraded breathable formula is designed to minimize pore-clogging. However, always ensure you thoroughly cleanse your face at the end of the day to maintain clear skin.

Can I wear this foundation every day?

Yes, with its skin-caring benefits, Hyaluronic acid infusion, and SPF39, this foundation is suitable for daily wear, actively working to improve your skin over time.

How do I ensure the best shade match for me?

It is recommended to test foundation shades, including LW1, on your jawline in natural lighting conditions. Blending a small amount into the skin will reveal its true tone match.

Is the foundation truly waterproof and transfer-proof?

Yes, the All Hours Foundation features a triple-proof formula, meaning it is designed to be transfer-proof, waterproof, and sport-proof, ensuring long-lasting wear through various conditions.

Does this foundation offer sun protection?

Yes, the Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Foundation includes SPF39, providing a beneficial layer of sun protection for daily use.

How much product should I use for full coverage?

Start with a small, pea-sized amount and apply in thin layers. The formula is highly pigmented, so a little goes a long way. You can build coverage in specific areas as needed.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears heavy or cakey after application.

Reduce the amount of product used; a small quantity is sufficient for full coverage. Ensure your skin is well-moisturized and consider using a primer for a smoother canvas. Blend thoroughly with a damp sponge or brush.

Foundation doesn't last the full 24 hours as expected.

Ensure skin is clean and properly primed before application. For maximum longevity, consider using a setting spray after applying the foundation. Avoid excessive touching of your face throughout the day.

Skin feels dry or uncomfortable with the matte finish.

While the formula contains Hyaluronic acid for hydration, ensure your skincare routine provides ample moisture before application. A hydrating primer can also help. Over time, the skin-caring benefits should improve skin feel.

The shade (LW1) doesn't seem to blend seamlessly with my skin tone.

Always test shades on your jawline in natural light before full application. Blend the foundation well down your neck to avoid a harsh line. If slightly off, consider mixing a small amount with a lighter or darker foundation you own to customize.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Longevity: Provides 24-hour wear for all-day and all-night perfection.
  • Full Coverage with Weightless Feel: Effectively conceals imperfections without feeling heavy or cakey.
  • Hydrating & Skin-Caring: Infused with Hyaluronic acid for continuous hydration and improved skin texture over time.
  • Highly Durable: Triple-proof formula resists transfer, water, and sweat, making it ideal for active lifestyles.
  • Built-in Sun Protection: SPF39 offers convenient daily defense against sun exposure.
  • Breathable Formula: Promotes comfort and a natural skin sensation.

Cons

  • Matte Finish Preference: While luminous, the matte finish may not be preferred by those who favor a dewy or ultra-radiant look.
  • Shade Matching: Finding the perfect shade (like LW1) can sometimes require careful testing due to the comprehensive range.
  • Requires Thorough Removal: As a long-wearing, full-coverage product, complete makeup removal is crucial to maximize skin-caring benefits.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Application Instructions

  1. Prepare Skin: Begin with a clean, moisturized face. For extended wear, a primer can be applied beforehand.
  2. Dispense: Apply a small amount of foundation to the back of your hand or directly to your face. Start with a pea-sized amount; a little goes a long way with full-coverage formulas.
  3. Apply: Using your preferred tool – a foundation brush, sponge, or clean fingertips – blend the foundation evenly across your face. Start from the center and blend outwards, paying attention to the jawline and hairline for a seamless transition.
  4. Build Coverage: For areas requiring more coverage, apply a second thin layer and gently tap into the skin.
  5. Set (Optional): For an even more prolonged wear or in very humid conditions, you may lightly set with a translucent powder.

Skin Compatibility

The Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Foundation is formulated with a breathable formula and Hyaluronic acid to provide all-day hydration, making it generally suitable for many skin types. Its natural luminous matte finish is particularly beneficial for those seeking oil control and a refined look. The skin-caring benefits are designed to improve skin feel for all users.

Product Care

  • Storage: Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain formula integrity.
  • Hygiene: To prevent contamination, avoid touching the applicator directly to your face if possible. Regularly clean any brushes or sponges used for application.
  • Removal: Always remove foundation thoroughly at the end of the day using a gentle makeup remover and cleanser to allow your skin to breathe and benefit from the product's long-term skin-caring effects.
