Ingredients and why they matter

• Aqua (Water) — the base that provides hydration and a smooth glide for even application.
• Cyclopentasiloxane, Cyclohexasiloxane — silicones that help the formula spread evenly and create a protective, breathable film on the skin.
• Butylene Glycol — a humectant that helps attract moisture to the skin, aiding in slip and comfort.
• Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer — helps with texture, slip, and a cushiony feel, contributing to a non‑cakey finish.
• Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol — preserve the product and support skin comfort during wear.
• Alumina, Magnesium Oxide, Pentaerythrityl Tetra‑Di‑T‑Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate — contribute to stability and emollient properties that help the concealer stay in place.
• Ci 19140, Ci 42090, Ci 77007, Ci 77163, Ci 77491, Ci 77492, Ci 77499, Ci 77891 — color additives used to achieve the desired tone and coverage across variations; these pigments help match and blend with skin tones.

Usage and recommendations

• To avoid cakiness, don’t lay it on thick. Smooth on one layer of FULL COVERAGE Cakeless Concealer and blend.
• Follow product instructions for any shade-specific guidance and safety warnings on the packaging.
• Test on a small area of skin before full use to check for any sensitivities, especially if you have reactive skin.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight to maintain product integrity.
