This primer blends a green-tinted neutralizer with calming botanical extracts and skin-supporting ingredients to create a smoother, more even canvas for foundation and concealer.

How quickly will I see a reduction in redness?

The green-tinted pigment is formulated to counteract redness on contact, so you’ll notice the visual neutralizing effect immediately after application. Continued use pairs the instant color correction with calming ingredients to help skin look less inflamed over time. Results for persistent redness vary by skin type and underlying causes.

• Immediate neutralization from the green tint
• Soothing Algae, Rose, and Mushroom extracts to calm skin
• Daily application supports a more even-looking complexion

Will this primer hydrate without feeling heavy or greasy?

Yes — the formula combines lightweight moisturizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid with breathable texture so it hydrates without heaviness. It’s designed to sit under foundation without pilling or sliding, maintaining a comfortable, non-greasy finish throughout the day. Suitable for layering with most liquid, cream, and powder foundations.

• Hyaluronic acid for effective hydration
• Light, breathable base that won’t clog pores
• Works smoothly under various foundation types

Which active botanicals help soothe and strengthen skin?

The primer includes Algae, Rose, and Mushroom extracts selected for their calming and antioxidant properties. These ingredients work alongside vitamins and antioxidants in the formula to support skin resilience and comfort during wear. The blend aims to calm visible irritation while helping skin appear healthier over time.

• Algae extract helps soothe and comfort sensitivities
• Rose extract adds calming, antioxidant-rich benefits
• Mushroom extract supports skin balance and reduced reactivity
