You can own the best foundation in the world, but if your skin is covered in fine hair, it has something to cling to. The result: texture, patchiness and makeup that settles in all the wrong places.
Why peach fuzz affects your makeup
- Foundation and powder grab onto fine hairs, which can make your base look fuzzy in daylight.
- Hair traps oil, so makeup breaks down faster.
- Highlighter catches the light on hair instead of on smooth skin.
The prep ritual
- The evening before: use the Hair Identifier Spray to see every hair, then dermaplane with the Dermaplaner.
- Hydrate: apply a gentle moisturiser and let it absorb overnight.
- In the morning: moisturiser, SPF, then a thin layer of foundation. You'll likely need less product than usual.
Tips for a flawless finish
- Use a damp sponge or a dense brush to press foundation into the skin.
- Set only where you need it, such as the T-zone.
- Apply highlighter on the high points of your cheekbones; on smooth skin it gives a glassy glow.
