Directions
Activate. Blend. Set.
Dispense the product onto your fingertips and gently rub to activate the encapsulated pigments. As the formula shifts from white to your natural tone, apply to a moisturized face and blend evenly. You’ll see it adjust to your skin, instantly smoothing out imperfections and evening tone. Once the white color disappears, your custom shade is fully developed. Allow 1–2 minutes for the final tone to settle. For added protection or coverage, finish with one of our Total Protection brush-on sunscreens or layer with foundation.
Pro Tip:
Use as a base beneath your foundation for fuller coverage, or pair with Face Shield Glow or Bronze for a radiant, customized finish.
One-and-Done Look:
Apply one even layer across the entire face, including under the eyes, for a natural finish with powerful protection.
Foundation Alternative:
Want more coverage? Build it up to your preferred level of flawlessness. Wait about 1 minute between layers for best results.
Shade Match Tip:
Between two shades? You can blend any Face Shield variants to customize your ideal tone. Each offers the same trusted all-mineral SPF 50 protection, so you never have to sacrifice coverage for sun defense.
