You’ve heard of cocktailing your skincare products, but what if I told you there was a premixed foundation? Enter the newest skin-care revolution: serum foundations.
Serum foundations are lightweight products that (you guessed it) doubles as a face serum and a foundation. It’s benefits include evening out your skin tone, hydrating your face, repairing your skin, and balancing out facial oils.
To apply the lightweight formula, simply grab a foundation brush, beauty blender, or use your fingers; it’s up to you! Whichever method you choose, be sure to shake the foundation first. It can be a bit runny if not properly used. Apply wherever you need most coverage, and blend it out. It’s buildable, breathable, and most importantly, beautifully you.
