Details & care
What it is: A softly blurring liquid makeup with a sheer matte finish and 12-hour long wear for lightweight, breathable undetectable coverage.
Who it's for: Ideal for all skin types.
What it does: This sheer matte foundation evens skintone with undetectable coverage, leaving skin looking fresh, healthy and natural like the real you. The oil-free formula, with hyaluronic acid and the brand's unique red-fruit infusion of watermelon, apple and litchi seed extracts, provides immediate and all-day hydration. It smoothes skin’s surface and minimizes the look of fine, dry lines. Antioxidants with vitamin E help skin fight damaging free radicals from blue light emitted by digital devices. With SPF, it helps protect against UV rays and pollution. The formula resists sweat and humidity and stays color true. It provides lightweight, breathable forget-it's-there comfortable wear. It is easy to apply and can be done so with your fingertips—no experience necessary. Use the foundation to cover specific trouble spots like blemishes, or all over your face. The formula features 12-hour color true, non-creasing, non-poring wear. It protects skin from pollution and resists caking and streaking.
How to use: Shake well before each use. Application couldn’t be easier: just apply with your fingertips. Use an almond-sized amount and massage onto skin. Repeat to build a little more coverage if desired. Use it to cover specific trouble spots like blemishes, or all over your face.
Pro tips: Shake well, and allow any liquid foundation to dry completely before confirming it’s your perfect shade. Always test it on your face (not your arm or wrist) for the most accurate results. To find your perfect shade choose your skin’s intensity level (from light to deep) and undertone (cool, neutral or warm). Undertone is the way your bare skin looks and behaves. Which one sounds most like you?
- Cool (C) undertones: Bare skin has a rosy tone and burns easily in the sun
- Neutral (N) undertones: Bare skin is more even toned, not too pink or golden
- Warm (W) undertones: Bare skin has a golden or olive tone and tans easily in the sun

Bring back double wear light
This foundation is too runny and sheer. It is definitely not long wearing. Poor replacement for a double wear light. I will be looking for another brand.

Not long wear and not for sensitive skin
Was really excited to try this foundation as I wanted something light since we are back to WFH and wearing masks out and about. This is definitely not a long wear formula- it was completely gone around my chin and nose after only a few hours. It also broke me out, which I am assuming is because of the chemical sunscreen. I normally don’t wear chemical sunscreen because of this, but thought since it is a small amount (only SPF 19), it wouldn’t bother me. Color match was perfect, though. Sad to return and back to hunt for a good everyday foundation.

Bring back Double Wear Light
This doesn’t offer any coverage for dark spots, acne or discolorations. It also fades and melts off unlike double wear light. Double wear was always too thick of a coverage for me, but this is no coverage at all. It seemed fine at first: but doesn’t last at all. It should not have the name “double wear” so sad my favorite makeup for a decade is now just gone!

please bring double wear light back
I used double wear light for years and it was the best foundation I ever tried. It was great coverage, but felt like skin. Since it was discontinued, I’ve tried dozens of foundations and nothing compares, including this one. Double wear sheer feels good at first, but doesn’t settle well into skin. Please listen to customers and bring it back!
