Will this foundation work for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The formulation is designed to be non-comedogenic and oil-free, minimizing pore-clogging potential. Many users with sensitive skin report compatibility, but patch testing is recommended if you have known sensitivities.

• Does not clog pores; suitable for acne-prone skin types
• Oil-free texture reduces excess sebum appearance
• Gentler on sensitive skin compared with heavier creams

Does NC15 provide sun protection and what finish does it give?

Studio Fix Fluid contains SPF 15 to help protect against UV exposure as part of your daily routine. The finish leans toward a natural matte that controls shine without appearing flat on camera.

• Broad-spectrum SPF 15 for daily incidental sun exposure
• Natural matte finish that photographs evenly
• Provides medium, buildable coverage for a refined look

How should I apply and layer this foundation for best results?

Apply with a brush, sponge, or fingertips depending on desired coverage. Start with a thin layer and build only where needed; set with a powder for extra longevity or use a hydrating primer if skin is dry.

• Use a dense brush for fuller coverage or a damp sponge for a seamless finish
• Layer sparingly—thin first coat then build in target areas
• Set with translucent powder to increase wear time on oily zones
