Product details

Everything about this product

Smooth Base

Pre-Makeup Primer Cream

The Pre-Makeup Isolation Cream is a primer step worn after skincare and before foundation. You press a thin, light layer across the face, let it set, then apply makeup over a smooth, gripped surface. It blurs the look of pores and fine texture without a greasy feel and helps foundation hold more evenly through the day.

Light Layer

Smooth Primer Texture

Up close, the Pre-Makeup Isolation Cream shows a light, non-greasy texture made to spread thinly across skin. A small amount presses into an even layer that blurs the look of pores and fine lines. It sets into a smooth, dry-to-touch surface that grips foundation, giving makeup a flat base to sit on for a more even daily finish.

Base Step

Before Foundation Prep

In a makeup routine, the Pre-Makeup Isolation Cream goes on after moisturiser and before foundation. You press a thin layer across cheeks, nose and forehead, then let it set until smooth. Foundation glides over that gripped base and holds more evenly, so colour stays put with less touching up. A small amount covers the full face.

Why this product

Why people add it to the routine

  • 1

    Smooths The Surface

    A thin layer evens out the look of skin texture so foundation sits flat instead of catching on dry patches.

  • 2

    Grips Your Makeup

    It sets into a smooth base that gives foundation and concealer a surface to hold onto for a finish that lasts longer.

  • 3

    Light Non Greasy Feel

    The texture reads light and absorbs cleanly, blurring the look of pores without a heavy or sticky film.

  • 4

    A Little Goes Far

    A small amount covers the full face, so the 30ml tube lasts through a long stretch of daily makeup routines.

How it works

How to use it day to day

  • Cleanse and moisturise first
    1

    Cleanse and moisturise first

    Start with your usual clean, moisturised skin. The cream is made to go on as the last step of skin prep, so let your moisturiser settle before you reach for the tube.

  • Press on a thin even layer
    2

    Press on a thin even layer

    Take a small amount onto your fingertips and press a thin, even layer across the face, focusing on the cheeks, nose and forehead where makeup tends to slip. A little covers the full face.

  • Let the surface set
    3

    Let the surface set

    Give it a moment to set until the surface feels smooth and dry to the touch. This is what gives your foundation a gripped, even base to hold onto through the day.

  • Build your makeup on top
    4

    Build your makeup on top

    Apply foundation and the rest of your makeup over the smooth base as usual. Colour glides on more evenly and the finish holds with less touching up, or wear the base alone on no makeup days.

Benefits

What a smooth base gives you

  • A smoother surface for makeup

    The cream evens out the look of skin texture so foundation sits flat instead of catching on dry patches, giving you a smooth canvas to build on every morning.

  • Makeup that grips and holds

    It sets into a base that foundation and concealer can hold onto, so colour stays even and the finish lasts longer through the day with less touching up.

  • Softer looking pores

    A thin layer blurs the look of pores and fine texture, so your base looks more even and polished both in person and in photos.

  • Light and never greasy

    The texture reads light and absorbs cleanly, leaving a smooth surface rather than a heavy or sticky film, so you forget you are wearing it once it sets.

  • Lasts and travels well

    A small amount covers the full face, so the compact 30ml tube lasts through a long stretch of routines and packs easily into a makeup bag or travel pouch.

FAQ

Questions before checkout

When do I apply it in my routine?
Apply it after your moisturiser and before foundation, as the last step of skin prep. Cleanse and moisturise first, then press a thin, even layer of the cream across the face and let it set for a moment. Once the surface feels smooth and dry to the touch, build your foundation and the rest of your makeup on top as usual.
How much should I use?
A small amount is enough. Take a little onto your fingertips and press a thin, even layer across the face rather than a thick coat, focusing on the cheeks, nose and forehead where makeup tends to slip. A small amount covers the full face, which is why the 30ml tube lasts through a long stretch of daily routines.
Does it feel heavy under makeup?
No. The layer is light and non-greasy and absorbs cleanly, leaving a smooth surface for foundation to sit on rather than a heavy or sticky film. It is designed to read light on the skin and to blur the look of pores and fine texture without a thick, cakey feel under your makeup.
Can I wear it on its own?
Yes. On days you skip foundation, it can be worn alone as a smoothing base over moisturised skin. The light layer blurs the look of pores and fine texture and leaves the surface even, so you get a tidy, smooth finish on its own as well as a gripped base under makeup on full glam days.
What skin types is it for?
It is made as a general pre-makeup base step that suits a daily routine. Press a thin layer over cleansed, moisturised skin and let it set. As with any new beauty product, if your skin reacts easily it is sensible to try a little on a small area first and see how your skin feels before using it across the whole face.
Will it help my makeup last longer?
It is made to give foundation and concealer a smooth surface to grip, so colour sits more evenly and the finish holds with less touching up through the day. By smoothing the look of skin texture first, makeup glides over the base rather than catching on dry patches, which helps it stay looking even for longer.
Is it good for travel?
Yes. The 30ml tube is compact enough to pack into a makeup bag or travel pouch, and because a small amount covers the full face the tube lasts a long time. It is an easy base step to keep in your kit so your makeup starts on a smooth, even surface whether you are at home or away.
How do I store it?
Keep the cap closed between uses and store the tube somewhere cool and dry, out of direct heat. Press out a small amount when you need it and close it again so the cream stays fresh. Stored this way the compact tube stays easy to use through your daily prep and travels well in a makeup bag.

Review summary

Customers describe the Pre-Makeup Isolation Cream as an easy base step that smooths the skin before foundation. Many like how light and non-greasy it feels and say their makeup goes on more evenly and holds better through the day. Reviewers note that the look of pores and fine texture is softened and that a small amount covers the full face, so the tube lasts. Several keep it in a travel kit. A few wear it alone as a smoothing base on no makeup days.

Margaux L.Verified Purchase

My foundation sits so much better

I started pressing a thin layer of this on before my foundation and the difference is real. My skin feels smooth and my makeup goes on even instead of catching on dry bits around my nose. A little really does cover the whole face.

So glad it smoothed out your base, Margaux. A thin layer really is all it takes.

Soraya B.Verified Purchase

Light and not greasy at all

I was worried a base would feel heavy but this absorbs cleanly and just leaves my skin smooth. It does not feel sticky under foundation and my pores look softer. I use a tiny amount each morning so the tube is lasting ages.

Elodie R.Verified Purchase

Makeup lasts longer now

Pressing this on as the last skincare step has helped my makeup hold through a long day. I do less touching up by the afternoon. The texture is light and it sets quickly. Took me a day or two to get the amount right but happy now.

Anneke V.Verified Purchase

Blurs my pores nicely

The thing I notice most is how it softens the look of my pores around my cheeks and nose. Foundation glides over it and looks more even. It is light on the skin and I cannot feel it once it sets. Will buy again.

Love that it smoothed the look of texture for you, Anneke. Thanks for the kind words.

Carlota M.Verified Purchase

Great smooth base

Goes on after my moisturiser and gives me a smooth surface for foundation. My makeup looks more even and stays put better. The tube is small so it fits in my bag for touch up trips. A small amount is plenty each time.

Fenna D.Verified Purchase

Nice prep step

I added this between my skincare and makeup and my base looks tidier. It is light and dries to a smooth finish quickly. I knocked off a star only because I wish the tube were bigger, but honestly a little goes a long way so it lasts.

Mireille P.Verified Purchase

Wear it alone too

On days I skip foundation I just use this as a smoothing base and my skin looks even and soft. On full makeup days it grips my foundation so it lasts. Two uses in one tube. Light, non greasy and a little covers everything.

Two ways to wear it is exactly the idea, Mireille. Thanks for sharing how you use it.

Quirine S.Verified Purchase

Smooth and even finish

My foundation used to settle into fine lines but with this base first it stays smooth and even much longer. The cream is light and sinks in fast. I press a thin layer on cheeks, nose and forehead and it makes a real difference.

Sofie H.Verified Purchase

Good everyday primer

This has become part of my morning routine. It evens out my skin so makeup does not cling to dry patches. The feel is light and it sets in a moment. Does what a base should without any heaviness. Happy with it overall.

Liesbeth K.Verified Purchase

A little covers my whole face

I cannot get over how far a small amount goes. One press across the cheeks, nose and forehead is enough and my whole face feels smooth. Foundation sits flat on top. The tube is going to last me months at this rate.

That is the beauty of a thin layer, Liesbeth. So glad the tube is lasting you.
