Often our foundation doesn’t work when we don’t use a primer beforehand. In the early years we didn’t offer primers. We strongly believed and still do in a very tailored, edited assortment. But after we began hearing how well primers could help your other makeup perform, we buckled and went into the lab and began experimenting. Now we’re true believers that applying primer first can be the difference between foundation success vs foundation failure.
You used too much product. You’ve maybe seen the latest Tik Tok conversations on the over-use of foundation and how that can lead to the ultimate fail. Our products are specially formulated with an ultra-concentration of pigments so that your product lasts longer than most other brands meaning you only need to use a small amount. We say, start with less and you can always go back and add more. It’s much tougher to do if it’s the other way around.
We’ve all been victim to this. But we can help. We offer several avenues that are available to help you select your perfect shade. Check out our MYPHOTO Match Quiz or our Shade Finder tool both of which are available on our site. In addition, and if you’re old school which is totally cool with us, we can mail you a Shade Card the old-fashioned way or finally please feel free to ring us when you can talk to an actual person who will be happy to help you figure out which color is best.
