Founder's Note

“My goal was to create a foundation that looks and feels like the best version of your skin. Now, we’ve updated the formula with skincare actives to visibly improve bare skin with each wear. It’s the same undetectable, second-skin coverage I love for a more polished look—boosted with built-in skincare.”

FAQ

If we didn't answer your question, contact us.

True Skin Serum Foundation offers medium coverage that you can easily build up by applying more layers.

True Skin Serum Foundation has a natural, skin-like finish. Once it melds with your skin, you won’t know you’re wearing anything. If you prefer a soft-matte finish, you can set it with a Setting Powder!

Our reformulated True Skin Serum Foundation is now boosted with skincare ingredients Niacinamide and Allantoin to help smooth and soothe with every wear. It still delivers the weightless, buildable coverage you know and love.

The existing shades didn’t change, but we added 12 new shades to cater to even more skin tones.

True Skin Serum Foundation is a buildable, medium-coverage foundation with a natural finish. Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 is a tinted serum with light coverage, mineral SPF, and a dewy finish. Both formulas are powered by potent levels of skincare ingredients to visibly improve bare skin over time.

True Skin Serum Foundation is designed for anyone who wants medium coverage that looks like skin. Smoothing Niacinamide and soothing Allantoin have benefits for all skin types.

You can apply it with your fingers, a makeup sponge, or a brush—it’s up to you. We like to apply it with our Complexion Brush or Perfecting Buff Brush for the most seamless application.

Once clean and empty, the bottle is recyclable through most curbside recycling services. Check your local recycling guidelines to be sure. The pump and cap can be recycled for free through our partnership with Pact Collective.

    serum like foundation

    This is really great everyday foundation It has that dewy moisturizerizing finish. it's fine ,not a ton of coverage but I'll just use concealer before hand. it's not a date night foundation. and it's not heavy for people who like a lot of makeup..it's for the barley there look.

    Was hoping to love

    I used the skin serum tint with spf for years and was ready to ditch the white cast, especially during a northern Michigan winter season. I was shade matched and this one just seems a bit too orange with not as much hydration as I would prefer. Probably won’t order again.
