Shade: C40

C40 is formulated for medium-to-deep skin tones with warm undertones, offering a balanced base that blends effortlessly into the neck and décolletage. The shade helps minimize redness and creates a uniform canvas, letting blush, bronzer, and highlighter read true. For warm complexions, C40 tends to harmonize well with sun-kissed hues and bronze makeup palettes, giving a cohesive finish without pulling gray or ashy.

How to Use

• Prep and prime — begin with clean skin and a lightweight moisturizer; apply a makeup primer if you want maximum longevity for the powder foundation.
• Choose your applicator — opt for a dense foundation brush for more coverage, a powder puff for a softer finish, or a damp beauty sponge for a slightly dewier look if suitable for your skin.
• Apply in thin layers — press or buff the product onto the skin, building coverage gradually where needed; avoid piling product in fine lines and pores for a more natural result.
• Blend to the edges — blend toward the jawline and hairline to avoid harsh lines; lightly sweep across the perimeter for a seamless transition.
• Set and finish — lightly dust with a translucent setting powder or use a setting spray to lock in the look and extend wear; avoid over-application in delicate areas to prevent caking.
• Touch-up strategy — carry the compact for mid-day refreshers; blot areas of shine with a clean tissue and reapply a light dusting if needed.
