Do you need to use a foundation with this product?

In the summer, I use this foudation because it is light, but has enough tint/color to cover my light freckles. In the winter, I use the moisurizing foundation from the same company. Both are great products.

This product is quite thick in the jar. However, you can apply it as a light cover, allowing your skin to look healthy, and almost 'make up free' OR for a more full make up look, apply more. I put more on my cheek area (I'm 63 so have a few red veins to cover), it gives my skin a fresh look. If I feel I need more coverage I will apply a mineral powder with a big brush over the entire face, this is for a more 'made up look'. Bobbi Brown's HYDRATING FACE TONIC applied first, gives my mature skin a gorgeous fresh, healthy look, especially under the eyes and cheek area. Hope this helps.

It depends on your skin quality and how much coverage you want. It's really light. I pair it with a solid loose powder on days I want really light coverage and that works fine. I've also paired it with mineral powder as well for a bit more coverage. Personally, I would think foundation on top might be a bit much.

Absolutely. But the trick is youse the product sparingly and give it the seven minutes to settle and dry. Use water - not much- if you see white. It is worth the trial and error process to get it right! I love it. Also, the type of makeup matters! Don't use oil-based foundation. Good luck!

No but you need a good foundation I bought a metal one off of amazon folds up for easy storage if moving

I used foundation first and then therapy....then polish. No need for regular base coat. Coat with therapy every day over polish.

I think liquid foundations (I mostly use CC creams rather than heavier foundation) go on beautifully with this brush and it only takes a TINY bit to get good coverage. I don't know why it looks so much better than using a sponge or why less product is needed, but I love it.

Hi. It works all in one for me. Use it as a base before using foundation. This isn't greasy and oily, so it creates a great weightless feel, which is what I want for my skin type. Hope this helps.

Use the cc cream first, then the powder. The powder is used last to set your foundation. I apply it with a powder brush and lightly dust it over my entire face.

YES! make sure to wet the sponge thoroughly before using it. 1) make sure its very damp 2) squeeze out the excess water so the sponge isn't dripping 3) make sure the sponge is nice and moist ( I make sure its extra moist for mine, so the sponge doesn't soak up a lot of my foundation...that's my opinion haha) These steps helped my foundation look beautiful with an airbrush finish(:

It works well with other foundations for me. Sometimes I use a liquid foundation lightly and then buff with Bare Escentuals.

No question is stupid . These are frames and most people use wax foundatuons with wires embedded for support. If your foundations have no wire support then you need frames with h

No it is not like a foundation for the bed. Its good for extra support is you have a pedestal type bed frame.

I use the foundation and then top it off with mineral veil. It isn't for coverage.

The only product I use is the Primer. I will tell you though, I was given a sample of the makeup and was not thrilled with it. The Primer beneath may make a difference. If you're looking for natural, try Origins Stay Tuned. I really prefer it to most any other I've tried. When foundation is thicker, it has a tendency to sink into pores and lines. Maybe using less would help. Sorry I couldn't be of more help>

Don't see why not. Would suggest you mix foundation with sunblock or put it under the sunscreen. Since this has high levels of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide which block sun rays, this should be the last thing applied. Hope this answers your question.

Yes, the foundation is meant to be used by itself. It does not need any additional support.

yes i do, but try to use all the same type of makeup as this is powder allow your foundation to be powder base also.

I don't think it provides enough coverage to use as a foundation. I have freckles and it doesn't cover them. Very sheer coverage. I use it more as a primer, it has the same texture of a bare minerals primer I have used in the past but this is better because of the sun protection! I use a powder over it and that provides a natural coverage. Hope this helps!
