PRODUCT DETAILS

Hello, easy radiance. This tone-up serum-primer is made with dull, dry skin in mind and gives an instant brightening effect for a fresher, more radiant look. It also provides UV protection with an SPF30 PA++ rating.

It can be worn alone or under foundation or cushion makeup, giving you the choice of a simple tone-up finish or a makeup-ready base. Under makeup, its coating helps smooth visible texture and create a more even canvas while helping makeup adhere.

The formula has a lightweight cream texture designed to adhere without discomfort or caking. Its finish is refreshing, non-greasy and non-sticky, a welcome match for dry skin that still prefers a lighter feel.

Centella asiatica, aloe, ceramide and hyaluronic acid are included in a moisturizing blend that helps hydrate, soften tired-feeling skin and relieve dryness. It’s a soft bridge between skincare and makeup, bringing moisture, radiance and smoother-looking preparation together.
